HILONC- 3GPS APPLICATION NOTE
3. Functional Integration
Advancements in silicon technology have brought about concurrent functionality improvements that allow lower
power consumption. The HILONC-3GPS module with 116 pin LGA is a very compact design with dimensions of
only 28.5 x 34 x 2.35 mm and weighing less than 7 grams.

All digital I/Os among the 116 pin LGA are within the 1.8V domain suitable for most systems with the
exception of SIM I/O's, which can also be in the 3V domain depending on SIM-card use, and SDIOs which are
in the 2.85V domain.
 Analog I/Os occupy the following power domains:
· VSIM  SIM I/Os are in the 1.8V or 3V domain
· VBACKUP  3V domain
·VGPIO 2.85V domain
·VBAT from 3.4V to 4.2V. 3.7V is normal.
·VUSB 5V
·ADC 2.2V
·Antenna RF power amplifier is in the VBAT domain
 Do not power on the module I/O with a voltage over the specified limits. This could cause damage to the
module.

In order to achieve accurate audio performance from customer products it is necessary to have a basic
competency in acoustic engineering.
 In order to achieve accurate radio performance from customer products it is necessary to have a basic
competency in radio engineering.

: SIM Card signals
The HILONC-3GPS module provides SIM signals to the 116 pins of the LGA. A SIM card holder with 6 pins
must be adopted to access SIM functions.
Decoupling capacitors must be added on to the VSIM,SIM_DATA,SIM_RST,and SIM_CLK signals as close
as possible to the SIM card connector to avoid EMC issues and in order to pass SIM card approval tests.
Vsim must be used only for the SIM card.
Use ESD protection components to protect the SIM card and module I/Os against electrostatic discharge.
The following schematic shows how to protect SIM access of the 6 pin connector. This must be performed every
time the SIM card holder is accessed by the end user.

VSIM
: EMC and ESD protection components in the vicinity of the SIM
If it is necessary to use long SIM bus lines of over 100 mm, it is recommended to adopt serial resistors to
avoid electrical overshoot on SIM bus signals. Use 56 Ω for the clock line and 10Ω for the reset and data lines.

The schematic above includes a hardware SIM card presence detector. It can be connected to GPIO2.
GPIO2 is the design default for SIM card detection.
Use a 22pF capacitor to debounce the GPIO2 detection signal.
The SIM card must not be removed from its holder while it is still powered. Switch the module off with the AT
command, then remove the SIM card from its holder.
3.2.
Audio Connection
The HILONC-3GPS module features one input audio path and one output audio path. The input path is a PCM
digital input. The output path is a PCM digital output.
3.2.1.
PCM Digital Audio
HILONC-3GPS can be used for connection to an external codec through the integrated PCM interface. The
interface supports an 8 kHz short sync mode at 2048 kHz and an 8 kHz long sync mode at 128 kHz. In shortsync (primary PCM) mode, the HILONC-3GPS can act as master or slave. In long-sync (auxiliary PCM) mode,
the HILONC-3GPS is always a master; there is no slave support.

3.3.
PWM
A single PWM pin is available on the HILONC-3GPS. This is a general purpose PWM which can be used to
drive a vibrating device, keypad backlight or LED. The PWM pin can be controlled by AT commands, allowing
several periods and duty cycles. More details are given in the AT commands specifications document.
PWM output can be set by the user:
Frequency between: 0.125Hz and 8KHz
Duty range from: 0 to 100%
3.3.1.
PWM for Buzzer connection
The HILONC-3GPS module can utilize PWM output to drive a buzzer. The buzzer can serve as an abnormal
status alarm.
Resistors must be added to protect the buzzer. The value of these resistors depends on the buzzer and the
transistor. Normally, they are set at 1KΩ.

3.3.2.
Network LED
The HILONC-3GPS module can manage a network LED which can be connected to 2G_RF_IND.
The transistors can be found in a single package referred to as the UMDXX or PUMDXX Family.
The value of resistor R depends on the characteristics of the LED; its purpose is to limit the current passing
through the diode.
Use the AT command to set the 2G_RF_IND used to control the LED.
: Network LED connection
3.4.
Power Requirements
Input Rating : 3.4V ~ 4.2VDC , 700mA , Operation Temperature : -40℃~85℃ .
The host system must supply 3.4V ~ 4.2Vof power to the VBAT.
Within normal 2G and 3G operational modes, the maximum average current is approximately 1.1A
depending on RF output power. In 2G mode peak current can be as high as 2A under matched antenna
conditions. Peak current could be as high as 1.75A in the case of a mismatched antenna. In 3G mode and
under conditions of antenna mismatch, peak current may increase by up to 700mA.
VBAT traces are required to be as short and as wide as possible.
VBAT ceramic decoupling capacitors of at least 100μF/10V are required to ensure good RF performance. It
is strongly recommended to place capacitors close to the module’s connection pad and connected via low
resistance tracks to VBAT and GND.
Host power must be capable of sourcing enough current to accommodate maximum power in the event of
2G transmission bursts. This can be done, for example, by adding a large capacitor with a low ESR value.
PCB tracks must be well dimensioned to support a maximum current of 2.2A. Voltage ripple caused by serial
resistance of the power supply path could result in instances of voltage drop.
The HILONC-3GPS does not support battery charging.

UART
The HILONC-3GPS has a UART port that can be used in low-speed, full-speed, and high-speed modes. The
UART communicates with serial data ports conforming to the RS-232 interface protocol. With a properly written
and user-defined download program, the UART port can be used for testing and debugging.
Provision of external access to the V24 interface for easy upgrade of software is recommended.
Baud rate up to 4Mbps.
Unused signals remain disconnected.

: RTS versus PWRON signal during power on sequence
This signal configuration also enables all signals:
· UART_RI signal is used when programmed to indicate an incoming voice or data call or SMS incoming
message, etc.
· UART_DCD signal is used to indicate GPRS connections.
· UART_DTR signal is used to indicate that the module’s UART interface is ON.
· UART_DSR signal is used to prevent the HILONC-3GPS from entering sleep mode, switching between Data
and AT commands, hanging up a call or waking up the module etc.
Avoid supplying power to the UART before the HILONC-3GPS is ON, as this may result in power up

GPIO
There are six GPIOs available on the HILONC-3GPS. Customer applications can directly access them through
appropriate AT commands such as:
- Output: pin is set to High or Low state.
- Input: pin is read on request and customer application is responded to.
As an input different scenarios are possible to cover a maximum range of customer applications:
· Synchronous answer to AT command.
· Asynchronous answer to AT command. Customer’s application prior to the read request has configured the
GPIO to react to falling/rising edges. The customer application is notified asynchronously by AT command
answer when the configured trigger occurs.

HILONC- 3GPS APPLICATION NOTE
: Programmable GPIO configurations
By utilizing other special AT commands, GPIOs can be used to, for example:
1. Perform I/O toggling while the module is attached to the network.
2. Perform I/O toggling when a pre-set temperature is reached.
3. Serve as an input to detect the presence of an antenna (with some additional external power.)
4. GPIO2 serves as an input default to detect SIM card presence …etc.
3.7.
ADC
The HILONC-3GPS has one ADC input pin which can be used to read the value of the voltage applied. The
following conditions must be met to ensure correct performance:
· Input signal voltage must be within 0V to 2.1V.
· Input impedance of the pin is 2KΩ.
· Input capacitance typically is 53pF.
The AT command AT+KADC will produce a voltage value with the following characteristics:
· 15 bits resolution
· Maximum sampling frequency of 2.4MHz.

Backup Battery
3.8.1.
Backup Battery Function Features
A backup battery can be connected to the module in order to supply internal RTC (Real Time Clock) when the
main power supply is removed. Thus, when the main power supply is removed, the RTC is still supplied with
power and the module keeps the time register running.
·If VBAT < 3V, internal RTC is supplied by VBACKUP.
· If VBAT ≥3V, internal RTC is supplied by VBAT.
3.8.2.
Internal HILONC-3GPS Charging Function
HILONC-3GPS has a charging function that does not require any additional external power supply (power
supply for the charging is provided by the HILONC-3GPS).
Charge of the back-up battery occurs only when main power supply VBAT is provided.

: Internal charging of backup battery or 10μF capacitor
The value of resistor R depends on the charging current value of the backup battery manufacturer.
3.8.3.
Backup Battery Technology
Capacitor batteries do not have the disadvantages of lithium ion rechargeable batteries:
· Maximum discharge current is generally greater,
· No need to regulate charge current.
Moreover, this kind of battery is available in the same kind of package as a lithium ion cell and is fully
compatible from a mechanical perspective. The only disadvantage is that the capacity is significantly lower than
a manganese silicon lithium ion battery.
3.9.
USB
The HILONC-3GPS module has a set of USB_DP and USB_DN bi-directional differential USB data lines that
comply with USB 2.0 specifications.
HILONC-3GPS acts as the USB-Slave and the customer application acts as the USB-Master.
· Integrated high-speed USB PHY.
· In compliance with USB 2.0 specifications for a peripheral device.
·The USB 2.0 specification requires hosts such as PCs to support all three USB speeds, namely low-speed (1.5
Mbps), full-speed (12 Mbps) and high-speed (480 Mbps). The USB 2.0 specification allows peripheral devices to
support any one or more of these speeds.
The USB_DP and USB_DN signals are routed as a ~90 Ω differential pair. These signals must be routed
side by side and on the same layer and their trace length should be matched as closely as possible.
A 2pF capacitor is required to be installed between USB_DP and USB_DN close to the HILONC-3GPS.
These signals have relatively fast edges, so they should be routed away from sensitive circuits and signals
such as 19.2 MHz TCXO, sleep XTAL, and RF. Therefore, avoid routing these signals on surface layers; routing
in the inner layer sandwiched between power and ground is preferable.
4. Power Management
The host system should supply 3.4V~4.2V to VBAT for powering the baseband, logics circuit and RF circuit.
4.1.
Power Modes
Depending on the status of the HILONC-3GPS, different power consumption modes can be identified.
Active mode (Active communication)
All systems on HILONC-3GPS are active. In this mode, the module is registered to the network and a voice/data

call is actively transmitting data.
Sleep mode (Active idle)
All systems on HILONC-3GPS are active including the USB bus. In this mode, the module is registered to the
network but it is idle/paging only. No voice/data call connection is established.
Fly mode
The processor is still active but the radio section is powered down. This mode can be controlled by sending an
AT command to the module.
4.2.
Module Power up
Starting the HILONC-3GPS via PWON.
4.2.1.
PWON Power up
To start the module, first power up VBAT, which must be in the range 3.4V ~ 4.2V, and must be able to supply
1.75A during TX bursts.
PWON is a low level active signal internally pulled up to a dedicated power domain of 1.8V.
As PWON is internally pulled up, a simple open collector or open drain transistor must be used for ignition.
To start the module, a low level pulse must be applied on PWON for 500ms.
After a few seconds, the UART_RTS enters active state and the module is ready to receive AT commands.
VGPIO is a supply output from the module that can be used to check if the module is active.
· When VGPIO = 0V the module is OFF.
· When VGPIO = 2.85V the module is ON.
TBD

UART Interface
To turn the module off, use the AT command AT+CPOF. If PWON is not pulled down the module will switch to
OFF mode after the AT command, otherwise the module restarts immediately (OFF sequence is performed
followed by power ON sequence).
: Power off sequence for PWON, VGPIO and UART_RTS
4.4.2.
USB Interface
As the module can also be turned on when a USB cable is plugged in, the module turn off sequence requires
the USB interface to be OFF or VBUS disconnected once the command is sent and acknowledged by the
module. Thus, to turn the module off when USB interface is in use, use the AT command AT+CPOF, then
disconnect VBUS signal (unplug the USB cable or use a command switch to switch off VBUS) when the module
acknowledges (responds with an OK message) the command, otherwise the module will restart immediately (an
OFF sequence is performed followed by a power ON sequence).
4.5.
Sleep Mode
The AT command AT+KSLEEP allows configuration of the sleep mode.
When AT+KSLEEP=1 has been configured:
· The HILONC-3GPS module decides by itself when to enter sleep mode (no tasks running).
· “0x00” character on serial link wakes up the HILONC-3GPS module.
When AT+KSLEEP=0 has been configured:
· The HILONC-3GPS module is active when UART_DSR signal is active (low electrical level).
· When UART_DSR is deactivated (high electrical level), the HILONC-3GPS module enters sleep mode after a
certain period of time.
· On UART_DSR activation (low electrical level), the HILONC-3GPS module wakes up.
When AT+KSLEEP=2 has been configured:
· The HILONC-3GPS module is prevented from ever entering sleep mode.
In sleep mode the module reduces power consumption and waits for a wake up signal from either the network,

5. ESD & EMC Recommendations
Adopting the Human Body Model of the JEDEC JESD 22-A114 standard, the HILONC-3GPS can support 2KV
on each LGA pad.

HILONC-3GPS Handling
HILONC-3GPS modules are packaged in boxes.
HILONC-3GPS modules contain electronic circuits sensitive to the electrostatic electricity of the human hand.
Handling without ESD protection could result in permanent damage or even destruction of the module.
5.2.
ESD Recommendations
If customer’s design requires the ability to withstand more than 2KV of electrostatic discharge, the following
must be observed:
ESD current is able to penetrate into the device via the following typical components:
· SIM connector

The HILONC-3GPS module incorporates RF transceiver technology that converts received signals directly from
RF-to-baseband and transmits signals directly from baseband-to-RF (known as direct conversion or zero
intermediate frequency (ZIF) processing). This technique eliminates the need for large IF surface acoustic wave
(SAW) filters and supporting IF and LO circuits.
6.1.
Antenna Connection
The HILONC-3GPS module is equipped with an RF LGA pad for antenna connection.
Definition of the reference antenna connector:
· Strictly 50 ohms matched impedance PCB tracks
· Straight PCB tracks
Antenna gain:
· Radiation pattern: depending on antenna position and size of device
· Gain average in space in all frequencies: > -3dBi
· Maximum VSWR: < 1.5:1 with 50 ohm reference impedance
In order to achieve optimum sensitivity and output power, it is recommended to implement a matching circuit
between the module and the antenna:

Antenna Recommendations
Antenna for HILONC-3GPS should resonate in the operating bands (GSM 850, 900, 1800, 1900 + UMTS
band 1, 8) depending on the actual application of the specific HILONC-3GPS module.
Note that the RF-impedance of the HILONC-3GPS is 50Ω.
Use low loss antenna cable (max. 0.5dB).
 To avoid interference choose an antenna type with a radiation pattern that does not interfere with the
module. .
Circular polarized antennas are preferable.
Verify operation of the antenna by measuring the total radiated power.
Avoid placing a transmitting antenna near sensitive areas.

 Keep EMC-sensitive and high-emission areas separate.
6.2.
Ground Link Area
Good ground contact between the module and customer’s board is required to achieve optimum radio
performance (spurious, sensitivity…)
 All HILONC-3GPS ground pads must be connected to the ground of the customer’s board.
The thermal ground pads (pads 93~113) must be soldered to the ground of the customer’s board to achieve
better thermal dissipation.
TBD
: Thermal pads
6.3.
Layout
Isolate RF line and antenna from other bus or signals
Signals should avoid being in the vicinity of 50 ohms. If not possible, add ground shielding using different
layers.
Do not add any ground layer under the antenna contact area.
 Do not add unvarnished layout traces on the first layer of the customer board, or unvarnished via holes
under the module shield area or it will result in short circuit of those signals. This is mandatory.
Free CAD software can be used to calculate the stack-up parameters to ensure a compliant 50 ohm RF track.
6.4.
Mechanical Recommendations
Do not apply mechanical pressure on the HILONC-3GPS shield. Doing so could damage the mechanical
structure of the shield and lead to internal short-circuits or other issues.
Avoid having metallic parts in the vicinity of the antenna area.
Keep FPCs and battery contact (if any) away from antenna area.
 FPC's (if any) have to be shielded.
6.5.
Other Recommendation - production/design test
Sagemcom guarantees RF performance in conductive mode but strongly recommends carrying out RF
measurements in an anechoic chamber in radiated mode (test conditions for FTA): radiated performance relies
heavily on radio integration (layout, antenna, matching circuit, ground area….)
7. Audio Integration
The HILONC-3GPS module provides only a digital PCM interface for audio. A PCM codec must be put in
customer’s board if analog audio is required. The audio specifications which describe the audio tests are 3GPP
TS 26.131 & 3GPP TS 26.132.
7.1.
Mechanical integration and acoustics
Particular care of Handset Mode:
To achieve a more ideal audio output design (speaker part):
The speaker must be completely sealed on the front side.
The front aperture must in compliance with specifications of the speaker supplier.
The back volume must be completely sealed.

HILONC- 3GPS APPLICATION NOTE
The sealed back volume must be in compliance with specifications of the speaker supplier.
Pay attention to the design of the speaker gasket (elastomer).
Make sure to leave sufficient space for the artificial ear gasket.
To achieve a more ideal audio input design (microphone part) :
Pay attention to the design of the microphone (elastomer).
All receivers must be completely sealed on the front side.
 Microphone sensitivity depends on the shape of the device but should be in the region of –40 ±3 dBV/Pa.
Encourage the use of a pre-amplified microphone. If needed, use a pre-amplification stage.
As audio input and output are strongly linked:
Place the microphone and the speaker as far away as possible from one another.
7.2.
Electronics and layout
Avoiding Distortion & Burst Noise
 Audio signals must be symmetric (same components on each path).
Differential signals must be routed in parallel.
Audio layer must be surrounded by 2 ground layers.
The link from one component to the ground must be as short as possible.
If possible separate the PCBs of the microphone and speaker.
Reduce the number of electronic components as much as possible (to avoid loss of quality and greater
dispersion).
Audio tracks must be larger than 0.5 mm.
8. Recommendations on customer board layout
8.1.
General recommendations on layout
There are many different types of signals in the module which may interfere with each other. Particularly, audio
signals are very sensitive to external signals such as VBAT. Therefore it is very important to follow some basic
guidelines to avoid signal disruption or abnormal behavior.
 Magnetic fields generated by VBAT tracks may cause speaker interference and burst noise. In this case,
modify layout of the VBAT tracks to reduce the phenomenon.
8.1.1.
Ground
 Ensure the ground plane is as complete as possible.
 Grounding of components should be connected to the ground layer through a number of irregularly
distributed vias.
Top and bottom layer should set aside as much space for the ground plane as possible. Flood remaining
empty surfaces of the layout of those two layers with a ground plane connected to the main ground through as
many vias as possible.
8.1.2.
Ground layout guidelines
Proper grounding is crucial to end-product performance. At least one layer must be a dedicated ground plane.
This ground plane is the common point referenced by all end-product circuits.
In addition to the dedicated ground plane layer, unused space on all PCB layers should be filled with
grounding to provide the most robust grounding possible from layer to layer.
Bypass capacitors should be connected directly to their surface layer ground fill. Multiple vias should connect
Note d’étude / Technical document :

28 / 41
each capacitor directly to the main ground plane, with one via in the capacitor’s pad plus several vias within the
surface layer ground fill area.
8.1.3.
Digital ground
Digital ground should connect directly to the main ground plane. In addition, each layer between layer 1 and the
main ground should include ground fills directly below the center grid area’s digital pins, with each stack of vias
connecting to each ground fill area. The large mass of copper tied together using this technique provides
optimal electrical grounding and thermal conductivity.
8.1.4.
Analog/RF ground
The analog/RF ground pins are connected to each other, but isolated from the digital ground (until main ground).
Like the digital pins, the analog/RF pins should connect directly to the main ground plane. In addition, each layer
between layer 1 and the main ground should include ground fills directly below the outer layer’s analog/RF pins,
with each stack of vias connecting to each ground fill area. The large mass of copper tied together using this
technique provides optimal electrical grounding and thermal conductivity.
8.1.5.
Power supply
A layer for power supply signals (VBAT, VGPIO) is recommended.
Looping of power signal layouts must be avoided in device design.
Ensure suitable power supply (VBAT, VGPIO) track width and thickness.
8.1.6.
Clocks
Clock signals must be shielded between two ground layers and bordered with ground vias.
8.1.7.
Data bus and other signals
 Data bus and commands have to be routed on the same layer. Lines of the bus should not be parallel to
other lines.
 Line crossings should be perpendicular.
Other signals should have suitable track width and thickness.
Data bus must be protected by upper and lower ground planes
8.1.8.
Radio
 Provide a 50 Ohm micro strip line for antenna connection.
8.1.9.
Shielding
The following shielding comments are provided for designer consideration:
At the very least the following devices and circuits should be shielded:
· High-speed memory
· RF front-end components
· Crystal circuits
· DC/DC circuits
· RF circuitry
Recommended shield partitioning:
· For RF matching components do not locate matching inductors too close to shield walls (this may cause
electromagnetic coupling and inductor de-Q).
· Memory devices must be shielded.
· Crystal circuits (other than reference circuits for RF frequency synthesizers) must be very close to their

corresponding pins.
· Metalized plastic is not as effective as metal cans.
· Shielded inductors might be needed on the DC/DC circuits, or they might need to be placed in their own shield
area.

until this maximum 7 days duration before soldering the HiLoNC 3GPS on customer’s board.
For any module exposed to ambient moisture it is therefore highly recommended to proceed to a baking
according to the JEDEC (125°C during 24H) to dry the module before any soldering process

10.8 Hand soldering
Hand soldering is impossible for HILONC-3GPS.
10.9 Unsoldering
Manual unsoldering is possible, for repair purpose for example.
A special care must be considered in order to avoid overheating the HILONC-3GPS.
For repairing: Usage of hot plate like example below can be considered with additional metallic cubic plate
whose dimensions are HILONC-3GPS's ones (to heat only HILONC-3GPS surface)
Customer must remember to not have components on the HILONC-3GPS opposite side of the customer’s
board.
11.
Labelling
The HILONC-3GPS module is labeled with its own FCC ID (XXXHILONC-3GPS) on the shield side. When the
module is installed inside customer’s product, the FCC ID label on the module will not be visible. To avoid this
scenario an exterior label must be stuck on the surface of the customer’s product to indicate the FCC ID of the
enclosed module. The label can use the following wording: “Contains transmitter module FCC ID: XXXHILONC3GPS” or “Contains FCC ID: XXXHILONC-3GPS”.
