Layout reference for trace antenna @ 915MHz
« on: November 19, 2016, 03:12:04 PM »
Hello:
Is there any layout reference for a trace antenna @915MHz? There is a Moiteno Trace board but I don't see it in github

Thanks
Gus

Felix,

Do you have any reference of this Trace Antenna? I would be really grateful. (https://lowpowerlab.com/2016/05/30/moteino-with-trace-antenna/)

Thanks!

Felix

What do you mean by reference?
The antenna was tuned and impedance matched to the specific physical and RF characteristics of the Moteino. If you're trying to replicate it you will need to repeat the tuning and matching process for your board.
I did not do this for this board, a friend did so I don't know exactly what's involved.
