Operation is subject to the following two conditions:(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interferencereceived, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Reproduction forbidden without Fibocom Wireless Inc. written authorization - All Rights Reserved.L850-GL Hardware User Manual Page10of51This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuantto Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmfulinterference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequencyenergy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interferenceto radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particularinstallation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which canbe determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct theinterference by one of the following measures:Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from thatto which the receiver is connected.Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.FCC Caution:Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance couldvoid the user's authority to operate this equipment.This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna ortransmitter.Radiation Exposure Statement:This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment.This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the radiator &your body.This device is intended only for OEM integrators under the following conditions:1) The antenna must be installed such that 20 cm is maintained between the antenna andusers, and the maximum antenna gain allowed for use with this device is 5 dBi.2) The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna.As long as 2 conditions above are met, further transmitter test will not be required. However, the OEMintegrator is still responsible for testing their end-product for any additional compliance requirementsrequired with this module installed
Reproduction forbidden without Fibocom Wireless Inc. written authorization - All Rights Reserved.L850-GL Hardware User Manual Page11of51IMPORTANT NOTE: In the event that these conditions can not be met (for example certain laptopconfigurations or co-location with another transmitter), then the FCC authorization is no longer consideredvalid and the FCC ID can not be used on the final product. In these circumstances, the OEM integrator willbe responsible for re-evaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCCauthorization.End Product LabelingThis transmitter module is authorized only for use in device where the antenna may be installed such that20 cm may be maintained between the antenna and users. The final end product must be labeled in avisible area with the following: “Contains FCC ID: ZMOL850GL”.

TheVDD_1V8 should be provided from the external circuit. AP (Application Processor) controls the modulestart-up,and the circuit design is shown in Figure3-4:Figure 3-4 Circuit for Module Start-up Controlled by AP3.3.1.2 Start-upTiming SequenceAfter powering on, the module will start-up by pulling upthe FUL_CARD_POWER_OFF# signal formore than 20ms (100msis recommended). Meanwhile, the module will output 1.8V voltage throughVSD2_1V8 pin and start the initialization process. The start-up timing is shown in Figure 3-5:

The above timing of VSD2_1V8 is only for reference.The RESET# is required to pull high with a ton1 delay after the +3.3V, because it takes some timetocharge thecapacitors for +3.3V power supply. If the +3.3V power supply is already stablebefore starting upthe module, the delay time can be ignored.3.3.2 Module ShutdownThe module can be shut down by the following controls:Shutdown ControlActionConditionSoftwareSending AT+CPWROFF commandNormal shutdown(recommend)HardwarePull downFUL_CARD_POWER_OFF# pinOnly used whena hardware exception occursand the software control cannot be used.The module can be shut downby sending AT+CPWROFF command. When the module receives thesoftware shutdown command, the module will start the finalization process (the reverse process ofinitialization), andit will be completed after 3s. In the finalization process, the module will save the network,SIM card and some other parameters from memory, then clear the memory and PMU will be powered off.After shutdown, the VSD2_1V8 voltage is also shut down.

Incase of PCB layout, the RESET# signal lines should keep away from the RF interference andprotected by GND. Also, the RESET# signal lines shall neither near the PCB edge nor route onthe surface planes to avoid module from reset caused by ESD problems.3.4 USB InterfaceThe L850 module supports USB2.0 which is compatible with USB High-Speed (480 Mbit/s) and USBFull-Speed (12 Mbit/s).

As shown in Figure 3-10, the bendingangle of all lines should be equal or greater than 135°, the spacing between difference pairlines should be larger than 20mil, and the line caused by bending should be greater than 1.5times line width at least. When a serpentine line is used for length match with another line, thebended length of each segment shall be at least 3 times the line width ( ≥3W). The largestspacing between the bended part of the serpentine line and another one of the differential linesmust be less than 2 times the spacing of normal differential lines (S1<2S);
Reproduction forbidden without Fibocom Wireless Inc. written authorization - All Rights Reserved.L850-GL Hardware User Manual Page31of51Figure 3-10 Requirement of PCIe LineThe difference in length of two data lines in difference pair should be within 5mil, and the lengthmatch is required for all parts. When the length match is conducted for the differential lines, thedesigned position of correct match should be close to that of incorrect match, as shown in Figure3-11. However, there is no specific requirements for the length match of transmit pair and receivingpair, that is, the length match is only required in the internal differential lines rather than betweendifferent difference pairs. The length match should be close to the signal pin and pass thesmall-angle bending design.Figure 3-11 Length Match Design of PCIe Difference Pair3.6 USIMInterfaceThe L850 module has a built-in USIM card interface, which supports 1.8V and 3V SIM cards.3.6.1 USIM PinsThe USIM pins descriptionas shown in the following table:PinPin NameI/OReset ValueDescriptionType36UIM_PWRPOUSIM power supply1.8V/3V

Please refer to the AT CommandsManual for the AT command.3.6.4 USIM DesignThe SIM card circuit design shall meet the EMC standards and ESD requirements with theimprovedcapability to resist interference, to ensure that the SIM card can work stably. Thefollowingguidelines should be noted in case of design:The SIM card slotplacement should near the module as close as possible, and away from the RFantenna, DC/DC power supply, clock signal lines, and other strong interference sources.The SIM card slot with a metal shielding housing can improve the anti-interference ability.The trace length between the SIM card slotand the module should not exceed 100mm, or it couldreduce the signal quality.The UIM_CLK and UIM_DATA signal lines should be isolated by GND to avoid crosstalkinterference. If it is difficult for the layout, the whole SIM signal lines should be wrapped withGND as a group at least.The filter capacitors and ESDdevices for SIM card signals should be placed near to the SIM cardslot, and the ESD devices with 22~33pF capacitance should be used.3.7 Status IndicatorThe L850 module providesthree signals to indicate the operating status of the module, and the statusindicator pinsas shown in the following table:PinPin NameI/OReset ValuePin DescriptionType10LED1#OPDSystem status LED, drain output.CMOS 3.3V23WOWWAN#OPUModule wakes upHost (AP).CMOS 1.8V48TX_BLANKINGOPDPA Blanking output, externalGPS controlsignal.CMOS 1.8V
