Overview

The Kyocera AVX 1001011 is a surface-mount ceramic chip antenna designed specifically for GPS applications in the 1.57GHz to 1.58GHz frequency range. Measuring 22mm by 3.2mm, this passive component provides a compact solution for receiving satellite signals in space-constrained embedded systems. It offers a peak gain of -1.8dBi and is engineered to maintain a VSWR of 2:1 or better when properly matched.

Why Choose This Part

This chip antenna features a very slim 3.3mm maximum height, making it ideal for thin enclosure designs. Its ceramic construction provides high reliability across a wide temperature range of -40C to +85C, and it supports standard automated surface-mount assembly processes.

Applications

Asset Tracking
Used in battery-powered IoT devices to provide location data for logistics and fleet management.
Handheld GPS Receivers
Integrates into portable outdoor navigation equipment requiring a low-profile internal antenna.
Vehicle Telematics
Embedded within dashboard electronics for emergency calling and navigation services.
Drones and UAVs
Provides positioning capabilities for flight controllers in small-scale unmanned aerial systems.
