The information contained herein and its references should be sufficient to guide a skilled person in an attempt to implement the design on a host carrier. It will provide the designer with PCB layout details and expected performance specifications. The document supports the four different PCB designs: Two connector-based designs for the use of external antennas (one for each antenna pin of the module) Two designs based on SMD antennas (one for each antenna pin of the module) 2 FCC/IC ID reference Model1 FCC ID IC ID ELLA-W131 PV7-WIBEAR11N-SF1 7738A-WB11NSF1 ELLA-W133 PV7-WIBEAR11N-SF2 7738A-WB11NSF2 ELLA-W161 PV7-WIBEAR11N-DF1 7738A-WB11NDF1 ELLA-W163 PV7-WIBEAR11N-DF2 7738A-WB11NDF2 Table 1: FCC and IC IDs for different models of ELLA-W1 series The FCC and IC IDs are the same for professional and automotive grade variants of each ELLA-W1 model. ELLA-W1 Antenna trace designs UBX-16016269 Page 1 of 9 locate, communicate, accelerate 3 General description When using the ELLA-W1 together with this antenna reference design, the circuit trace layout must be made in strict compliance with the instructions below. All the components placed on each RF trace must be kept as indicated in the reference design, even if not used. The PCB areas of unused reference designs must be flooded with ground.
