Tiny Low-Cost MicroSplatch™ Antenna from Linx Breaks the Chip Barrier
|
January 7, 2013 — The
MicroSplatch™ is the first true alternative for those wishing to avoid the high cost, long lead
times or limited frequency choices of chip antennas. The MicroSplatch™ antenna from Linx Technologies
represents a groundbreaking advance in our reflow-compatible planar antennas. Using advanced
simulation tools, Linx designed the MicroSplatch™ with performance similar to our standard Splatch
antenna, but only uses one third of the critical board space. The small size and low cost makes
the MicroSplatch™ an excellent choice for handheld devices such as remote controls and small
data transmission systems.
 Adding
the MicroSplatch™ to your design is simple—the only things needed are a footprint for the antenna
and associated proximity ground plane. The MicroSplatch™ is available in the 403 MHz, 418 MHz,
433 MHz, 868 MHz, 916 MHz and 2.4 GHz bands. Custom designs within the 400 MHz–3 GHz
range are available.
“We designed the MicroSplatch™ specifically as a chip buster
aimed at high volume customer applications, where lowest cost is a leading consideration”, explains
Tolga Latif, CEO of Linx. “In most cases, we can beat a chip antenna on price and performance.”
