Antenna Productsheet
Dialog Semiconductor BV has developed a Reference Design with the
SC14CVMDECT_SFxx module. To supports FAD (e.g. for FP operation), this Reference
Design includes a printed antenna pattern. This document describes this antenna design.
The Printed Antenna Design supports the normal DECT frequency band. It also provides
for an option to support the lower frequency KDECT frequency band by placing a 0402
100pF capacitor across a gap that is part of the design.
