The antenna datasheet will usually tell you how you shoul place the chip antenna on the board.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/73220?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 17 Jan 2017 02:18:03 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:1b49f97e-c2d9-4a30-9fa9-31c6ce436803TB<p>Hi, Thanks for replying.
