Antenova Ltd, a leading manufacturer of antennas and RF antenna modules for M2M and the Internet of Things (IoT), has introduced three flexible FPC antennas to its new flexiiANT® range which are ideal for applications in industrial and consumer electronics.
Two of the antennas, named Dromus and Amoris are high performance dual band Wi-Fi antennas operating on the 2.4-2.5GHz and 4.9-5.9GHz wireless bands, including Wi-Fi 802.11a/b/g/j/n/ac. They are suitable for access points, portable electronics, PC cards, games consoles, set-top boxes, network devices, and wearable technology. The Wi-Fi antennas are available in two different dimensions so engineers are able to select the best fit and performance for their wireless product.
The third antenna, named Montana operates in the ISM bands of 863-870MHz and 902-928MHz. This antenna is ideal for use in industrial products including remote sensors, smart metering, medical devices, monitoring equipment, lighting, security and automotive applications.
The flexiiANT® flexible FPC antennas are just 0.15mm thick and are supplied with a peel-back self-adhesive area to fix them inside a small electronic device, in various configurations.
They are supplied complete with a cable and a connector to attach them to the underside covering or housing of a manufacturer’s electronic product. Each antenna weighs less than 0.5g.
The three new antennas can be connected into the IPEX MHF (UFL) mating connector on a host PCB or wireless module, and are effectively “plug and play”. Antenova’s design team adopts a philosophy of Design For Integration (DFI) – an approach to antenna design which puts the integration into the customer’s device right at the heart of the design process. Antenova also provides technical assistance to customers during the testing stages of the design process.
Dromus, Amoris and Montana are the first three antennas to ship from Antenova’s new family of “flexiiANT” products, which was announced in 2015. Their product names follow the company’s tradition of naming each antenna after a species of ant from around the globe.

Industrial and embedded applications are required to operate under increasingly more stringent conditions, deployed with tighter constraints on space and budgets, and under harsher environments. To meet these demands, Harwin have announced an expansion of the popular Kontrol range of industrial board-to-board interconnects (BBi), by adding single row connectors and cables to the 1.27mm pitch (0.05") connectors. The expansion of the range has been designed to bridge the gap between high-end connectors and established pin header and socket solutions.
The 6862I sensor, developed by Hope RF, represents a new benchmark in environmental sensing technology. This advanced digital barometric pressure and temperature sensor is engineered for applications that demand exceptional accuracy, low power consumption, and robust performance in challenging environments.
Discover the latest in efficient power conversion with the cost-effective STMicroelectronics DCP3601 buck converter and the STEVAL-3601CV1 evaluation board. The DCP3601 delivers up to 1 A load current across a wide 3.3 V to 36 V input range, making it ideal for diverse industrial applications. Its 1 MHz fixed switching frequency enables compact designs, while advanced EMI management and robust protection features ensure reliable operation even in demanding environments.
KYOCERA AVX’s has expanded its 3dB 90° hybrid couplers – the DB0402 adds a miniature 0402 size package to the family which already includes the DB0603, and DB0805 series – engineered to meet the growing demands of high-frequency wireless systems across industrial, automotive, telecommunications, and telemetry sectors.
The Omron G6QG is a cutting-edge, compact PCB-mounted power relay engineered for high-performance switching in space-constrained environments. It stands out as the smallest relay in the industry capable of handling AC loads up to 480V and 55A, making it a powerful solution for demanding applications such as DC fast chargers, energy storage systems, and EV infrastructure.
HARTING has launched the new D-Sub PushPull housings. Designed to improve efficient and process-safe handling, the HARTING D-Sub PushPull transforms a well-known connector family into a simplified solution. The PushPull locking mechanism significantly improves the assembly process and reduces installation and maintenance time by up to 50%.
STMicroelectronics has once again raised the bar in motion sensing with the launch of the LSM6DSV320X which is like no other IMU, designed to monitor and safeguard users in their individual surroundings and contexts.
