Calvus Penta-band SMD Antenna Part No. A10340 gigaNOVA® Product Specification 1 Features  GSM/UMTS antenna supporting up to 5 frequency bands  High efficiency  Easy to integrate  Intended for SMD mounting  Supplied in tape on reel Calvus supports the following communication standards: CDMA2000 UMTS GSM/GPRS/EDGE Other Standards 1xRTT/EV-DO/EV-DV WCDMA/HSPA GSM850 Band Classes: Bands I – VI Korean PCS (E)GSM900 1,2,3,4,6,8,9,12,14,15 Bands VIII – X DECT GSM1800 (DCS) TD-SCDMA GSM1900 (PCS) AWS 2 Description Calvus uses a ground plane in order to radiate efficiently, but the ground plane must not be present underneath the antenna itself. The antenna uses a matching circuit to achieve optimized results for the specific frequency bands that are required. This product specification shows the performance of the antenna when optimized to cover a typical penta-band reception: GSM850/900/1800/1900 and WCDMA. If the antenna is used for fewer than 5 bands, higher efficiencies are possible. 3 Applications  Femto / Pico base stations  Vehicle tracking  Machine to machine communication  Remote monitoring  Remote security  Vending machines Antennas for Wireless M2M Applications 1 Product Specification 09MD-0023-6-PS

Calvus GSM SMD Antenna Part No. A10340 Once the material for the PCB has been chosen (PCB thickness and dielectric constant), a co- planar transmission line can easily be designed using any of the commercial software packages for transmission line design. For the chosen PCB thickness, copper thickness and substrate dielectric constant, the program will calculate the appropriate transmission line width and gaps on either side of the track so the characteristic impedance of the co-planar transmission line is 50. 11-2 Matching circuit The antenna requires a matching circuit that must be optimized for each customer’s product. The matching circuit will require up to three components depending on the impedance of the antenna when situated in the device, and pads have been designed for 0603 components for best results. In addition to the matching circuit, a separate DC blocking capacitor will also be required between the radio and the antenna matching circuit. The following pad layout should be designed into the device so the correct circuit can be installed: Note: The component values for the matching circuit will vary depending on the size of the PCB and surrounding components. The impedance of the antenna should be measured before selecting suitable matching components. Antenova M2M offers a matching service on request.

Calvus GSM SMD Antenna Part No. A10340 11-3 Antenna placement Calvus should be fitted to the device so that power from the antenna can radiate into free space. Antenova recommends fitting the antenna close to the corner of the PCB with few components or metal objects nearby. Ground can be placed at the side of the antenna closest to the feed, and it is recommended that any ground either side of the antenna should be at least 15mm away. The area directly above and below should be free from components or conducting objects. Antenova M2M offers a full range of development support to ensure efficient implementation of the antenna into the specific design. To overcome RF design issues, matching circuits, transmission lines, layout and other components, please contact Antenova M2M (sales@antenova-m2m.com) for design and placement recommendations. Two recommended configurations are shown below, but other layouts are possible. Recommended PCB layouts: antenna mounted straight (left) and at 45 degrees (right).

Calvus GSM SMD Antenna Part No. A10340 12 Soldering This antenna is suitable for lead free soldering. The reflow profile should be adjusted to suit the PCBA, oven and solder paste, while observing the following conditions: - The maximum temperature should not exceed 240 ºC - However for lead free soldering, a maximum temperature of 255 ºC for no more than 20 seconds is permitted. - The antenna should not be exposed to temperatures exceeding 120 ºC more than 3 times during the soldering process. 13 Hazardous material regulation conformance Calvus has been designed to be free of halogen flame retardants and is manufactured using halogen-free material. However, traces of halogens may be present in the final product if they are included in other processes taking place in the manufacturing plant. The antenna has been tested to conform to RoHS requirements. A certificate of conformance is available from Antenova M2M’s website. 14 Packaging 14-1 Optimal storage conditions for packaged reels Temperature -10ºC to 40ºC Humidity Less than 75% RH Shelf Life 18 Months Storage place Away from corrosive gas and direct sunlight Reels should be stored in unopened sealed Packaging manufacturer’s plastic packaging. Note: Storage of open reels of antennas is not recommended due to possible oxidization of pads on antennas. If short term storage is necessary, then it is highly recommended that the bag containing the antenna reel is re-sealed and stored in like storage conditions as in above table.
