Hello.
The Antenna which I assembled in my PCB, in the microcontroller unit, is a piece of copper wire (single ended antenna).
The operating frequency is 2.4GHz (the microcontroller transmits and receives info in 2.4GHz frequency band).
I asked a wires factory for a copper wire, which can handle RF current of max 10mA @ 2.4GHz.
(I also requested the wire's diameter to be 1.5mm).
The factory has told me that it cannot do that since the operating frequency is too high.
Is that so?
I dont get it, what does the wire care what is the operating frequency?
Up to now, I used a simple piece of wire which i found and the antenna works great.
Thank you.
