SERVICE AND SUPPORT
Extensive RF Experience
"    Our Savvi ceramic antennas are supported by exten-
sive application notes, and when needed, by the
expertise of RF engineers who have integrated
hundreds of antenna designs into wireless devices.
Global Operations & Design Support
"    Ethertronics global operations encompass an
integrated network of design centers that provide
local customer support.
These highly innovative antennas provide
competitive advantages for designers of cell phones,
laptops and other mobile equipment by combining
GPS & Bluetooth antennas in a single, highly compact
form factor suitable for the thinnest/smallest
devices. Ethertronics Isolated Magnetic Dipole (IMD)
technology utilizes superior RF isolation to deliver
the utmost in high performance.

TECHNOLOGY ADVANTAGES
KEY BENEFITS
Part No. M032100
Real-World Performance and Implementation
Ceramic antennas may look alike on the outside, but
the important difference is inside. Other antennas
may contain simple PiFA or monopole designs that
interact with their surroundings, complicating
layout or changing performance with use position.
Ethertronics antennas utilize patented IMD technol-
ogy to deliver a unique size and performance combi-
nation.
Stays in Tune
High RF isolation means
IMD antennas resist
detuning regardless of
usage position. And one
standardized part can
typically be placed in a
variety of locations.
Smallest Effective Size
IMD antennas require a
smaller keep-out area for surrounding components,
leading to a smaller effective size.
High Performance
IMDs high efficiency and simple design rules lower
development risk and speed time-to-market without
sacrificing performance. Plus, high RF selectivity
eliminates the cost and space for band-pass circuitry.
