Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix required for your production volume needs. Options include Tape & Reel (TR), Cut Tape (CT), or Digi-Reel custom packaging. Confirm that the selected package aligns with your automated assembly equipment capabilities and handling requirements before finalizing the purchase order.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile SMT solution is required for 868MHz sub-GHz applications. Ensure the host PCB ground plane matches the optimization guidelines provided in the manufacturer's application notes. Verify impedance matching to 50 Ohms and confirm thermal compatibility during the reflow soldering process for reliable performance.

Antennas RF Part Context

This part belongs to the TE Connectivity Linx uSP410 microSplatch series of passive antennas. It is distinct from through-hole or whip variants like the ANT-868-VHETH or ANT-868-ID-1000-SMA. The AEK-868-USP410 serves as the dedicated evaluation board for this specific chip antenna model.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

No public confirmed substitute part numbers are available in the provided documentation. Designers should consult the official datasheet for mechanical and electrical tolerance comparisons if considering alternative suppliers.
