 I have seen a number of nRF51822 using chip antennas through a 2450BM14E003. An example is this circuit with the pins connected as follows: ANT2 -&amp;gt; BAL1, ANT1 -&amp;gt; BAL2 and VDD_PA -&amp;gt; DC. 
 
 Is it possible to use a similar circuit for the nRF52832</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Mon, 04 Apr 2016 13:43:45 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/9208/nrf52832-chip-antenna" /><item><title>RE: nrf52832 chip antenna</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/33942?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 04 Apr 2016 13:43:45 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:536bfb9e-66b0-4aed-9f45-db54406e5ab8</guid><dc:creator>MartinBL</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Updated the links now.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: nrf52832 chip antenna</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/33943?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 04 Apr 2016 12:00:38 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:8efecd8a-3228-4ddb-862f-3ea2a766ca9e</guid><dc:creator>Gordon</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi - the links in this post no longer seem to work - is it possible to update them?

&lt;p&gt;EDIT 2016.04.04: Updated links.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The radio on the nRF52 has been redesigned. It is now single-ended with an on-chip balun and hence, it is no longer necessary with an external third party balun. We do recommend though, to use an external matching network before the chip antenna. Have a look at the &lt;a href="http://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/com.nordic.infocenter.whitepapers/dita/whitepapers/white_papers.html?cp=11"&gt;nWP017 Antenna tuning whitepaper&lt;/a&gt;, Chapter 4.2 and 8.1 for details.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Note that Figure 1 in the chapter &amp;quot;&lt;em&gt;&lt;a href="http://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/com.nordic.infocenter.nrf52832.ps.v1.0/radio.html?cp=1_2_0_21#concept_lhd_ygj_4r"&gt;2.4 GHz Radio (RADIO)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&amp;quot; in the &lt;a href="http://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/com.nordic.infocenter.nrf52/dita/nrf52/chips/nrf52832.html?cp=1_2"&gt;nRF52 Product Specification&lt;/a&gt; might be slightly misleading as it refers to ANT1 and ANT2. It is reported to the technical writers and will be altered.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Also, if you haven&amp;#39;t already, have a look at the &lt;a href="http://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/com.nordic.infocenter.nrf52/dita/nrf52/pdflinks/ref_layout.html?cp=1_5"&gt;nRF52 reference layouts&lt;/a&gt; for guidance on schematics and PCB designs.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
