SPECIFICATION Part No. : AP17E.07.0064A Product Name : 17mm One Stage GPS/GALILEO Active Patch Antenna Module with Front End SAW Filter Features : 17mm*17mm*6.3mm 64mm 1.13 IPEX MHFI Wide Voltage 1.8V~5.5V 15dB LNA Tested in Free space ROHS Compliant SPE-11-8-144/C Page 1 of 9 1. Introduction The AP.17E is a one stage 17mm active patch antenna that has been designed specifically for embedded (inside device) integration with GPS/GALILEO receiver modules. The AP.17E combines a 17*17*4mm advanced low profile ceramic patch antenna with a one stage LNA and a front-end SAW filter with ultra thin coaxial cable. It comes with its own integrated ground-plane. The front end SAW filter reduces the risks where there is a cellular transmitter nearby of interference from out of band frequencies which can cause LNA burn-out, saturation, or radiated spurious emissions. The antenna can work on a wide input voltage from 1.8V to 5.5V with best in class power consumption figures. If further tuning and optimization specific to a customer device is required Taoglas offers a custom tuned and optimized part service. Contact sales taoglas.com for more information. Cables and connectors can be customized according to request. ANTENNA SAW Filter LNA I-PEX +cable SPE-11-8-144/C Page 2 of 9
