DA14585 microstrip impedance matching

Hello,

I am designing a space constrained circuit and would like to use a ceramic chip antenna and microstrip to match the impedance. In the DA14585 hardware design guide, it says to place inductor L1 (3.9nH for QFN) close to the DA. The closest I can get it is about 2mm from the antenna pin. Is the microstrip then placed after this 2mm trace or do I include those 2mm in the calculation of the microstrip length?

In the attached picture, the microstrip is circled in green.

Thanks!

Hi ahiggs,

Hi ahiggs,

Please check outAN-B-054: DA14585/586 Application Hardware Design Guidelinesdocument for the DA14585/586 product page. This document provide useful guidelines for preparing schematics and PCB layouts for your application using DA14585/586. Also, there this document availableAN-B-027: Designing Printed Antennas for Bluetooth Smart,但对于如何设计印刷天线。

Thanks, PM_Dialog
