The built-in antenna of the PCB board, that is, the antenna integrated on the printed circuit board (PCB), is an important part of wireless communication in modern electronic devices.
I. Advantages
Low cost: PCB board built-in antenna is manufactured by printed circuit board process, compared to other types of antenna, its manufacturing cost is lower.
Easy integration: Since the antenna is printed directly on the PCB board, it is easy to integrate with other circuit components, simplifying the assembly process.
Simple structure: PCB board built-in antenna usually has a simple structure, easy to design and manufacture.
Second, application scenarios
Wireless communication equipment: smart phones, tablets, laptops and other portable devices usually use built-in PCB antennas as antennas for wireless communication standards such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GPS. These devices need to integrate multiple antennas in a limited space, and the antennas are required to have good performance and stability to ensure communication quality and connection stability.
Iot devices: iot devices typically require small size, low power consumption, and low cost. PCB antennas can be designed to meet these requirements, while improving device performance and signal coverage by optimizing antenna structure and board layout.
Consumer electronics: Smart home devices, wireless audio devices (such as headphones, speakers), wireless keyboards and mice and other consumer electronics products often use built-in PCB antennas. These devices often require flexibility in miniaturization and appearance design, and PCB antenna designs can effectively meet these needs.
