AANI-AH-0152-1

Overview

The AANI-AH-0152-1 is an embedded quad helix antenna designed for L1 and L2 GNSS bands. It operates at center frequencies of 1.227 GHz and 1.575 GHz, covering ranges of 1.217–1.255 GHz and 1.559–1.6265 GHz respectively. The unit features a base mount type with a maximum height of 47.00 mm (1.850 inches). It includes a 100mm cable terminated with an I-PEX MHF1 (U.FL) connector. The antenna incorporates an integrated Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) and filter, maintaining a VSWR of 2.

Feature Summary

• Dual-band support for L1 and L2 GNSS signals via embedded quad helix design
• Integrated Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) and filter for signal enhancement
• Base mount configuration with pre-attached 100mm cable and U.FL termination

Applications

• GNSS navigation systems requiring L1/L2 band reception
• High-precision positioning modules
• Embedded GPS tracking devices

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version to confirm RoHS 3 compliance and MSL classification. Ensure the I-PEX MHF1 connector interface matches the host PCB footprint. Confirm that the integrated LNA power requirements align with the system voltage supply before integration.

Selection Notes

Select this component when dual-band L1/L2 GNSS performance is required in a compact form factor. The integrated LNA and filter simplify RF front-end design. Verify mechanical clearance for the 47.00 mm height and ensure compatibility with the U.FL connector mating cycle specifications.

Part Context

This model belongs to Abracon's AANI-AH series of RF antennas. It is specifically engineered for global navigation satellite systems. The quad helix structure provides omnidirectional coverage suitable for mobile and embedded applications requiring reliable satellite signal acquisition.

Replacement Considerations

No public substitute part numbers are confirmed in available documentation. Direct replacement requires matching the L1/L2 frequency ranges, U.FL termination, and integrated amplifier specifications.
