DESIGN CONSIDERATIONSDesign ConsiderationsDesign ConsiderationWhen using the Multi-Tech MiniPCIe form factor:■Consult your modem’s device guide for device dimensions. With the modem, the Multi-Tech Mini PCIe formfactor exceeds the standard Mini PCIe maximum component height for top and bottom.■If you need to install components under the module, use taller connectors to avoid conflict. Multi-Techrecommends not installing components under the module.■Check the Pinout table for pins that differ from the MiniPCIe spec.Noise Suppression DesignAdhere to engineering noise-suppression practices when designing a printed circuit board (PCB) containing theMultiConnect PCIe. Noise suppression is essential to the proper operation and performance of the modem andsurrounding equipment.Any OEM board design that contains the MultiConnect PCIe must consider both on-board and off-board generatednoise that can affect digital signal processing. Both on-board and off-board generated noise that is coupled on-board can affect interface signal levels and quality. Noise in frequency ranges that affect modem performance is ofparticular concern.On-board generated electromagnetic interference (EMI) noise that can be radiated or conducted off-board isequally important. This type of noise can affect the operation of surrounding equipment. Most local governmentagencies have certification requirements that must be met for use in specific environments.Proper PC board layout (component placement, signal routing, trace thickness and geometry, and so on)component selection (composition, value, and tolerance), interface connections, and shielding are required for theboard design to achieve desired modem performance and to attain EMI certification.Other aspects of proper noise-suppression engineering practices are beyond the scope of this guide. Consult noisesuppression techniques described in technical publications and journals, electronics and electrical engineering textbooks, and component supplier application notes.PC Board Layout GuidelineIn a 4-layer design, provide adequate ground plane covering the entire board. In 4-layer designs, power and groundare typically on the inner layers. Ensure that all power and ground traces are 0.05 inches wide.Electromagnetic InterferenceThe following guidelines are offered specifically to help minimize EMI generation. Some of these guidelines are thesame as, or similar to, the general guidelines. To minimize the contribution of device-based design to EMI, youmust understand the major sources of EMI and how to reduce them to acceptable levels.■Keep traces carrying high frequency signals as short as possible.■Provide a good ground plane or grid. In some cases, a multilayer board may be required with full layers forground and power distribution.■Decouple power from ground with decoupling capacitors as close to the device's power pins as possible.14 MultiConnectTM PCIe MTPCIE-H5/MTPCIE-BW Developer Guide
DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS■Eliminate ground loops, which are unexpected current return paths to the power source and ground.■Decouple the power cord at the power cord interface with decoupling capacitors. Methods to decouplepower lines are similar to decoupling telephone lines.■Locate high frequency circuits in a separate area to minimize capacitive coupling to other circuits.■Locate cables and connectors to avoid coupling from high frequency circuits.■Lay out the highest frequency signal traces next to the ground grid.■If using a multilayer board design, make no cuts in the ground or power planes and be sure the groundplane covers all traces.■Minimize the number of through-hole connections on traces carrying high frequency signals.■Avoid right angle turns on high frequency traces. Forty-five degree corners are good; however, radius turnsare better.■On 2-layer boards with no ground grid, provide a shadow ground trace on the opposite side of the board totraces carrying high frequency signals. This will be effective as a high frequency ground return if it is threetimes the width of the signal traces.■Distribute high frequency signals continuously on a single trace rather than several traces radiating fromone point.Electrostatic Discharge ControlHandle all electronic devices with precautions to avoid damage due to the static charge accumulation.See the ANSI/ESD Association Standard (ANSI/ESD S20.20-1999) – a document “for the Development of anElectrostatic Discharge Control for Protection of Electrical and Electronic Parts, Assemblies and Equipment.” Thisdocument covers ESD Control Program Administrative Requirements, ESD Training, ESD Control Program PlanTechnical Requirements (grounding/bonding systems, personnel grooming, protected areas, packaging, marking,equipment, and handling), and Sensitivity Testing.Multi-Tech strives to follow these recommendations. Input protection circuitry is incorporated in Multi-Techdevices to minimize the effect of static buildup. Take precautions to avoid exposure to electrostatic dischargeduring handling.Multi-Tech uses and recommends that others use anti-static boxes that create a faraday cage (packaging designedto exclude electromagnetic fields). Multi-Tech recommends that you use our packaging when returning a productand when you ship your products to your customers.USB DesignMulti-Tech recommends that you review Intel's High Speed USB Platform Design Guidelines for information aboutUSB signal routing, impedance, and layer stacking. Also:■Shield USB cables with twisted pairs (especially those containing D+/D-).■Use a single 5V power supply for USB devices. See the Power Draw section in your model’s Device Guide forcurrent (ampere) requirements.■Route D+/D- together in parallel with the trace spacing needed to achieve 90 ohms differential impedancefor the USB pair and to maintain a 20 mil space from the USB pair and all other signals.■If power is provided externally, use a common ground between the carrier board and the device.MultiConnectTM PCIe MTPCIE-H5/MTPCIE-BW Developer Guide 15

ANTENNAS, CABLES, GPSFCC Grant NotesThe OEM should follow all the grant notes listed below. Otherwise, further testing and device approvals may benecessary.Installing in Portable EquipmentThe available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using low powerwireless devices. There is no proof, however, that these low power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low powerwireless devices emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. Whereashigh levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure of low-level RF that does not produceheating effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low-level RF exposures have not foundany biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological effects might occur, but such findingshave not been confirmed by additional research. MTPCIE-H5 has been tested and found to comply with FCCradiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF)Exposure Guidelines in Supplement C to OET65.FCC DefinitionsPortable: (§2.1093) — A portable device is defined as a transmitting device designed to be used so that theradiating structure(s) of the device is/are within 20 centimeters of the body of the user.Mobile: (§2.1091) — A mobile device is defined as a transmitting device designed to be used in other than fixedlocations and to generally be used in such a way that a separation distance of at least 20 centimeters is normallymaintained between the transmitter’s radiating structure(s) and the body of the user or nearby persons.Grant LimitationsThis device is a mobile device with respect to RF exposure compliance. The antenna(s) used for this transmittermust be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons, and must not be collocated oroperate in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter except in accordance with FCC multi-transmitterproduct guidelines. Installers and end-users must be provided with specific information required to satisfy RFexposure compliance for installations and final host devices. (See note under Grant Limitations.) Compliance of thisdevice in all final host configurations is the responsibility of the Grantee.Note: Host design configurations constituting a device for portable use (<20 cm from human body) requireseparate FCC/IC approval.Note: Host devices incorporating unlicensed radio transmitters must be provided with the related antenna fixedmounted or, if coming with an external antenna connector, this connector must be of a non-standard type. Inany case must an antenna be provided with the unlicensed transmitter.Note: Only use antennas approved respectively as listed for the unlicensed radios (Bluetooth/Wi-Fi)46 MultiConnectTM PCIe MTPCIE-H5/MTPCIE-BW Developer Guide

SPECIFICATIONSTypical Power Flow■Peak inrush current is a fast rising pulse at power start up on board supplies or modem cap charging. It isinfluenced by the design and limits of the power supply providing power to the device.■Radio initialization is a lower value steady current phase that occurs while the radio gets initialized andready to talk to the cell network.■Once connected to the network, there is a steady idle current state.■When data is transmitted to the network, power peaks from this idle state. Peak data values are influencedby the distance from the towers and decided by the carrier network.■Power starts dropping when the device is disconnected.■After it is disconnected, power draw lowers if the device is told to enter sleep mode. Sleep mode keeps thereceiver active and the device periodically wakes up long enough to tell the network it is still available.MultiConnectTM PCIe MTPCIE-H5/MTPCIE-BW Developer Guide 59
