Choosing RF inductor for NRF52810 antenna

[cory123]

Would a wire-wound inductor work better than a chip inductor for the antenna circuit of NRF52810? I'm using the 32 pin QFN package with the LDO configuration which calls for one 3.9 nH high frequency inductor. I have read that wire-wound inductors outperform chip inductors when used in RF antenna circuits. Thanks!

Hi,

It shouldn't be significant as we recommend that all prototypes go through tuning before the design is finalized. The appropriate inductor will therefore be chosen during the tuning process. You can use the BOM of the development kit for examples on which components to use in your design.
