RF and Wireless PCB Design Services
RF performance depends on the entire physical implementation: geometry, reference continuity, component placement, isolation, grounding, shielding, and the product enclosure.
When this service fits
Engineering matched to the board’s actual constraints.
- Cellular, GNSS, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and sub-GHz radios
- NFC, RFID, matching networks, and RF front ends
- Compact multi-radio embedded products
- Antenna integration and RF-sensitive redesigns
Ferent supports RF-enabled products from front-end placement and transmission-line routing through antenna integration, mixed-domain isolation, and manufacturing release.
The layout is developed in the context of the complete product, including digital noise sources, power converters, mechanical keep-outs, connectors, cables, and the intended antenna environment.
Primary EDA platforms: Siemens PADS PCB, Cadence Allegro, and Altium Designer. Native-data requirements are confirmed before the engagement begins.
Scope
What the work can cover.
Transmission structures
Coordinate stack-up and controlled-impedance geometry while protecting reference continuity and transition quality.
Isolation and coexistence
Separate sensitive receive paths from digital clocks, switch-mode power, and other aggressors using placement, routing, grounding, and shielding strategy.
Antenna environment
Respect antenna keep-outs, ground requirements, enclosure constraints, tuning access, cable effects, and mechanical interactions.
Engineering priorities
Decisions remain visible and reviewable.
- RF current paths and reference continuity
- Isolation between radios, digital systems, and power conversion
- Practical access for tuning, measurement, and rework
- Coordination between PCB, enclosure, antenna, and manufacturing teams
Typical deliverables
A controlled path into manufacturing.
- Native CAD database
- RF routing and stack-up documentation
- Fabrication and assembly outputs
- Review notes for tuning and validation planning
Project fit
Bring the board, constraints, and target schedule.
A concise outline is enough for an initial review. Sensitive design files can follow after confidentiality terms and a secure transfer method are established.
