Schematic &amp; PCB layout for NRF8001 with SMA or U.FL Antennahttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/78976/schematic-pcb-layout-for-nrf8001-with-sma-or-u-fl-antennaHello, I have previously created a product using the nRF8001 chip a year ago using a PCB antenna design. At the time the enclosure for the PCB was RF transparent and the antenna was working nominally. A new revision of the enclosure had to be produceden-USTelligent Community 13Mon, 30 Aug 2021 18:53:44 GMTRE: Schematic & PCB layout for NRF8001 with SMA or U.FL Antennahttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/327294?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 30 Aug 2021 18:53:44 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:bc28f5d5-a6ee-4aa1-9896-0e9642a08991navid84<p>Great, thanks for the clarification.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>RE: Schematic & PCB layout for NRF8001 with SMA or U.FL Antennahttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/327142?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 30 Aug 2021 09:12:16 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:2f766525-5897-4783-8a4f-c3d62f2f83e5JONATHAN LL<p>I don&#39;t think we have a design with the U.FL connector and the nRF8001, but you should just be able to follow any other reference with a U.FL or follow the recommendations it the <a href="https://www.digikey.no/product-detail/en/molex,-llc/0734120114/WM3894CT-ND/2421931?utm_adgroup=Coaxial%20Connectors%20%28RF%29&amp;utm_source=google&amp;utm_medium=cpc&amp;utm_campaign=Shopping_Product_Connectors%2C%20Interconnects&amp;utm_term=&amp;productid=2421931&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQjwg7KJBhDyARIsAHrAXaGC_VXzV-uXYgNPIr1290r85l_LYX6duVXAltnFLH35jw8qm7m5ZPYaAulzEALw_wcB">datasheet</a>.

Is there a schematic and layout for a U.FL connecter or should I just follow the layout for the SMA connecter and just change the ending?</p> <p>Thanks again.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>RE: Schematic & PCB layout for NRF8001 with SMA or U.FL Antennahttps://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/326732?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 26 Aug 2021 11:00:38 GMT137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:981e3659-8ca6-4fe4-97e8-f5aab370d061JONATHAN LL<p>Hi,<br /><br />You can find the HW files here&nbsp;<a href="https://www.nordicsemi.com/Products/nRF8000-series">nRF8000 Series - Nordic Semiconductor - nordicsemi.com</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />Regards,<br />Jonathan</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
