Hello,
I'm using the Smith chart on a VNA to determine the matching circuit for my PCB (an RF switch (LoRa, WiFi and GNSS) and an antenna (NN02-224)). I found the matching networks for GNSS and LoRa using theory, and the VNA shows good results.
However, for WiFi, I couldn't get a good match...
Hello everyone
I wanted to share with you the design of a 2-layer full GNSS board that I have recently developed using Direct RF sampling architecture. The board consists of several blocks, each equipped with SMA input/output connectors, as well as an SMA connection between VCC and GND to check...
I am designing a GPS L1(PWR=-160dBW) band Direct RF sampling receiver and the front-end:
(passive antenna + LNA(21dB) + BGA1(30dB) + jumper + BPF(L1(fc=1575.42MHz,BW=15MHZ) + BGA2 (30dB) + BGA3(30dB) + VGA(-13.5 to +18 Gain Control in 0.5 dB Steps) ).
all amplifiers are supplied with a +5 V...
