HA.10.A

Antennas RF Overview

The HA.10.A is a helical monopole PCB antenna manufactured by Taoglas Limited, designed for ISM applications in the VHF and UHF bands. It operates within a frequency range of 169 MHz to 340 MHz with a nominal impedance of 50 Ohms. The component features a linear polarization and a quarter-wave electrical length. Physically, it measures 25.5 mm in length and utilizes an SMD/SMT surface mount end type for direct PCB integration. The unit supports a wide operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.

Antennas RF Feature Summary

• Helical coil structure providing compact form factor for space-constrained designs
• Surface mount solder termination for automated PCB assembly processes
• Linear polarization optimized for consistent signal transmission characteristics

Antennas RF Applications

• Wireless M-Bus Metering systems
• Security and intrusion Alarms
• Paging infrastructure networks
• Remote Asset Monitor tracking devices
• Mobile Radio Systems

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific order matches the HA.10.A designation to ensure correct frequency coverage between 169 MHz and 340 MHz. Confirm the requirement for SMD/SMT mounting compatibility with the target PCB layout. Check RoHS compliance documentation if environmental regulations apply to the final product assembly. Ensure the design accounts for the 25.5 mm physical height during mechanical clearance analysis.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile helical antenna is required for sub-GHz ISM band operations. The 50 Ohm impedance ensures standard matching network compatibility. Consider the 169 MHz parallel operation capability if dual-antenna configurations are planned. The wide thermal rating supports deployment in harsh industrial environments without derating concerns.
