5.7 TRACE AND CABLE LOSSES
The Antenna port (Pin 32) is designed to interface to a 50 Ohm antenna. This connection should feed to the antenna by means
of a 50 Ohm impedance trace on the circuit board. The following example impedance calculation is for a co-planar waveguide
trace on the top layer of a standard 0.063” FR-4 2-layer board material (60-mil core material) with a dielectric
