 I would like to realize my PCB module with nRF24L01+ and RFX2401C PA/LNA. My idea is to use a PCB antenna but I didn&amp;#39;t have any experence in that means. Someone can explane me how i have to realize the filter and the pcb antenna?

&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;I do not think we have Altium Designer format for nRF24L01+, but you can look at the HW in the gerbers here:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/cfs-file/__key/support-attachments/beef5d1b77644c448dabff31668f3a47-14c185b7dc97459b88c2f7237bfb9664/nRF24L01_2B005F00_Radio_5F00_Module_5F00_PCB_5F00_Antanna.zip"&gt;devzone.nordicsemi.com/.../nRF24L01_2B005F00_Radio_5F00_Module_5F00_PCB_5F00_Antanna.zip&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The layout is also shown in the Product Specification:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/struct_nrf24/struct/nrf24L01p_ps.html?cp=8_4_0"&gt;infocenter.nordicsemi.com/.../nrf24L01p_ps.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The RFX2401C must be placed between C6 and the antenna, follow the requirements and suggestions&amp;nbsp; from the manufacturer as closely as possible.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You can either copy the antenna in the design above or you can design it as you like. This whitepaper describes the design:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/pdf/nwp_008.pdf?cp=12_18"&gt;https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/pdf/nwp_008.pdf?cp=12_18&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Also note that you need to tune the antenna:&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/pdf/nwp_017.pdf?cp=12_11"&gt;https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/pdf/nwp_017.pdf?cp=12_11&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Another alternative is to use a 3rd party or SMD antenna. Follow the instructions from the manufacturer or designer as closely as possible.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best regards,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Andreas&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
