ANT-GNFPC-SHL150UF

Antennas RF Overview

The ANT-GNFPC-SHL150UF is a flexible printed circuit (FPC) antenna designed for Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) applications. It supports dual-band L1 and L5 frequencies, covering GPS, Galileo, BeiDou, NavIC, and QZSS systems. The component measures 25 mm x 25 mm with a thickness of 0.1 mm and utilizes an adhesive backing for installation on non-metallic surfaces. It features an MHF1/U.FL connector interface. Performance metrics include a Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) of ≤2.4 at 1,164–1,189 MHz, ≤2.2 at 1,559–1,592 MHz, and ≤1.4 at 1,598–1,606 MHz. Peak gain ranges from -0.2 dBi to 3.3 dBi across bands, with efficiency reaching up to 46%.

Antennas RF Feature Summary

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify the specific connector suffix against the target radio interface. Confirm that the application environment allows for direct adhesive attachment to non-metallic substrates. Ensure the receiving equipment supports dual-frequency L1/L5 processing to utilize the full performance profile of this component.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this model when space constraints require a low-profile 25x25 mm form factor. It is suitable for designs where the antenna must be embedded within plastic or composite housings. Choose this part if the system requires independence from the device's main ground plane to simplify PCB layout.

Antennas RF Part Context

This component belongs to the ANT-GNFPC-SHL15 series of FPC antennas manufactured by Linx Technologies, now part of TE Connectivity. The series is engineered for challenging urban environments to provide precise navigation with reduced signal interruption. It represents a specialized solution for compact, embedded GNSS integration.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

The ANT-GNFPC-SAHL150M4 is a documented alternative within the same product family. Verify compatibility regarding connector type and frequency band coverage before substitution.
