Linx Technologies' nanoSplatch nSP250 is a surface-mount antenna for embedded Wi-Fi/WLAN and other 2.4 GHz or 5.8 GHz ISM or U-NII frequency band applications. It uses a grounded-line technique to achieve outstanding performance in a tiny surface-mount package. The nSP250 exhibits a low proximity effect with a very hemispherical radiation pattern, making it ideal for handheld devices and applications typically subject to interference. The nSP250 is available in tape-and-reel packaging and is designed for reflow-solder mounting directly to a printed circuit board for high-volume applications.
