DESCRIPTION
The VJ5601M915MXBSR ceramic chip antenna is a small
form-factor, high-performance, chip-antenna designed for
operation at 915 MHz. It allows manufacturers to design
high quality products that do not bear the penalty of a large
external antenna, and is designed to be assembled onto a
PC board using a standard reflow process.
The VJ5601M915 is the latest in a family of products
developed by Vishay, a world leader in manufacturing of
discrete and passive components.
The VJ5601M915 series are small form-factor,
high-performance chip-antennas optimized for medical,
remote sensing, industrial, security, and RFID applications.
Utilizing unique Vishay materials and manufacturing
technologies, these products when properly tuned also
comply with the MBRAI standard for portable
communication.
APPLICATIONS
• Medical telemetry (internal/external)
• Remote sensing and control
• Industrial automation and telemetry
• Security systems, home automation
• Long range RFID
ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Operating temperature: -40 °C to +85 °C
Frequency range (transmission/reception): 835 MHz to 995
MHz
Note
• Electrical characteristics at +25 °C unless otherwise specified.
Antenna performance is measured at 915 MHz and 50

FOOTPRINT, MECHANICAL AND PCB DIMENSIONS
The antenna footprint and mechanical dimensions are
presented in Figure 7. Optimal tuning is adjusted according
to PCB layout.
For additional mechanical support, it is recommended to
add one drop of heat curing epoxy glue.
• The glue dot should not overlap with any of the soldering
pads
• Apply the glue dot at the center of the antenna.
• The glue dot area secures the chip firmly to the PCB

VJ5601M915 ASSEMBLY GUIDELINES
1. Mounting of antennas on a printed circuit board should
be done by reflow soldering using the profiles shown
(Figures 8, 9, and 10)
2. In order to provide the adequate strength between the
antenna and the PCB apply of a dot of heat cured epoxy
glue in the center of the footprint of the antenna prior to
soldering the antenna to the board. An example for such
glue is Heraeus PD 860002 SA. The weight of the dot
should be 5 mg to 10 mg.
