This application note presents the guidelines for calculating the external matching network to adapt the driver’s outputs of the MLX90132 NFC transceiver IC and MLX90130 RFID Transceiver IC to the ...

AM reception can be very difficult because of the inherent succeptibility AM has to electrical noise and other sources of interference. The built-in antenna in most receivers – a coil and a ferrite ...

Magnetic loop antennas are great if you are limited on space since they are just a potentially small loop of wire. The problem is, they are sharply tuned. You normally have an adjustment capacitor to ...

The magnetic loop antenna is a familiar sight in radio amateur circles as a means to pack a high performance HF antenna into ...

This 4-part report discusses antenna fundamentals and the various types of antennas used for short range devices. Fundamentals are presented along with practical design principals. It is excerpted ...

AOR USA has added a highly sensitive and directional “loop” antenna to its product line. The LA800 is designed for outdoor use by monitoring enthusiasts. It combines the proven and timeless ...

Fig 3. DockOn’s CPL antenna is based on a collocated magnetic loop dipole and an electric dipole. The dipole moments have to be orthogonal to prevent the two elements from radiating as two separate ...

From early mobile phones to the IoT, wireless and antenna design has contributed to the evolution of comms. Colin Newman reflects on his company’s history, and future prospects. Changes in antenna ...

Note: we are working to recover the figures for this article. The process of designing a short-range radio system can be complex and often involves many project tradeoffs (Fig. 1). With a little ...
