ILA.68 Antenna UWB 6-8.5GHz LTCC chip SMD/SMT for Indoor Accuracy Positioning Systems, Consumer Electronics, Automotive Applications (key less etc), Internet of Things (IoT) Devices

This compact embedded LTCC chip antenna is designed for Ultra-Wideband (UWB) devices operating across the 6GHz to 8.5GHz range. It is suited to space-constrained product designs that require stable gain and reliable omnidirectional radiation characteristics for robust UWB connectivity.

Common use cases include precise indoor location tracking, high-data-rate UWB communications, and radar-based sensing across industrial, consumer, and automotive device platforms.

• Typical applications: Indoor Accuracy Positioning Systems, Consumer Electronics, Automotive Applications (key less etc), Internet of Things (IoT) Devices, Security and Access Control, Augmented and Virtual Reality (AR/VR)

Installation / Environmental

The following is an example on how to integrate the ILA.68 into a design. This antenna has 2 pins, where one pin is used for the RF Feed. Taoglas recommends using a minimum of 35x31mm ground plane (PCB) to ensure optimal performance.
