PRODUCT SPECIFICATION
nRF905 Single Chip 433/868/915 MHz Radio Transceiver
11.4 PCB Layout Example; Single Ended Connection to 50 Antenna
Figure 17 shows a PCB layout example for the application schematic in Figure 15 and
Figure 18 shows a PCB layout example for the application schematic in Figure 16. A
double-sided FR-4 board of 1.6mm thickness is used. This PCB has a ground plane on
the bottom layer. Additionally, there are ground areas on the component side of the
board to ensure sufficient grounding of critical components. A large number of via
holes connect the top layer ground areas to the bottom layer ground plane.
No components in bottom layer
