The MPA-154-C is a 15 mm ceramic GPS passive patch antenna based on Maxtena technology. Our patch antenna offerings are perfect for projects with a smaller scope and budget for which high-performance and lower weight is not a primary factor for consideration for the antenna. They are ideal for less demanding applications where extreme performance and battery life can be sacrificed at the expense of device cost. This antenna is designed for embedded applications such as GPS handheld units, mobile devices, and tracking devices. It features higher upper hemisphere efficiency and a lower axial ratio as compared to regular patch antennas. The interface connector is a through pin solution.
