2.4GHz Ceramic Chip Antenna

2.4GHz Ceramic Chip Antenna - SparkFun WRL-00144

This is one of the world's smallest high-performance 2.4GHz ceramic chip antennas. It is a very small antenna indeed that works nicely with the Nordic ICs.
Although you cannot expect these little chappies to perform as well as their ~2" rubber duck counter parts, however, you can squeeze these onto any PCB layout.
Great to use with Bluetooth, 802.11, and Zigbee.
