housing, too (refer to 6.5).
Please note that for best possible performance the antenna should be directed away from
the application PCB as shown in Figure 24.

6.5. Housing Guidelines
The individual case must be checked to decide whether a specific housing is suitable for
the use of the internal antenna. A plastic housing must at least fulfill the following
requirements:
•
Non-conductive material, non-RF-blocking plastics
•
No metallic coating
•
ABS is suggested
6.6. Antenna Issues
S42/AI comprises a ceramic antenna, which as a component is soldered to the
circuit board. This solution is functional for a S42/AI integrated into a plastic
housing.
The performance of the antenna must be checked within the final integration
environment. Adjacent PCBs, components, cables, housings etc. could otherwise
influence the radiation pattern or be influenced by the radio wave energy. It must be
ensured that the antenna is not co-located or operating in conjunction with any other
antennas, transmitters, cables, or connectors.
