Permanent-Mount Antenna Offers Compact Size and Low Cost
Portable Design News, Monday August 25, 2008
Antenna Factor has announced a 2.45GHz version of its popular LP Series antenna family. The series is ideally suited for applications requiring a compact, low-cost, cosmetically attractive antenna solution.
These 1/4-wave antennas mount directly to a product's PCB via a single screw, thereby eliminating the cost of a connector and ensuring FCC compliance. The antennas are available in standard and custom frequencies which, with this latest introduction, now span the 315MHz to 2.45GHz range. LP Series antennas exhibit a 50-ohm characteristic impedance and a VSWR of less than 1.9.
The antenna costs less than $1.10 in production quantities. Custom colors and logo options are available for volume OEMs.
