Anyone know much about chip antennas? I have a couple questions. First question, Has anyone used chip antennas, PCB trace antennas, or both? Which one would you suggest going with. I am leaning towards the chip antenna as I think it would simpler to design into a circuit.
Second question I have is what is the purpose of the trace connected to pin2 of the chip antenna. The pin is not connected internally to the chip, so what the heck does the trace do? See image.
