8.2.2 Base PCB Design using RF-Pads

For applications where the antenna is implemented on the base PCB, the RF-Pads can be used to connect the RF signals. The pad layout is available in Figure 8-2. The base board traces shall be designed with a line impedance of 50Ω. Depending on the base board stack construction a microstrip or a grounded coplanar design can be implemented. The best choice will be the line type with the best match in between line width and the 0.8 mm pad width.

For all other IO pads the geometry in Figure 8-2 should be used.
