Device Overview

Data Sheet

DS70005577B - 20

Table 2-4. PCB Antenna Specification for WINCS02 Module

Parameter

Specification

Operating frequency

2400-2485 MHz

Peak gain

1.18 dBi at 2410 MHz

Efficiency (average)

45%(1)

Note:

1. The size of the WINCS02 Add-On Board is 25.4 mm x 57.2 mm. The antenna efficiency will improve with larger ground

plane base boards. The same antenna achieved an average efficiency of 69% with a base board size of 85 mm x 40 mm.

If the best case routing guidelines are followed on a larger ground plane application board, the efficiency will be better.
