RF Design Notes
U1 must be placed at a PCB edge with the integrated antenna facing outward.
Keep the antenna clearance void of copper, traces, vias, components, and metal on all layers.
Keep U3/L1 buck regulator switch node and inductor away from U1 antenna region.
Maintain solid ground under the module body where allowed by the module datasheet.
Do not change the module antenna or add metal/plastic in direct contact with the antenna without RF validation.
