Vdc
The operating voltage was defined in PCIe M.2_Rev0.7a standard as 3.3V+/-5%.
(2) 3.135 V is the minimum voltage supplied to LTE M.2 card by the host platform, and VCC
must never be under 3.135 V in any case. As our experiment, if we set the VCC=3.0V, the
M.2 card will power off when M.2 card working at +23dBm continue mode.
(3) Whenever the M.2 module works at 2G mode, the module transmits at the maximum
power (like +33dBm), the transient peak current may reach to 2.5 A.
We recommended design the VCC supply of host as below:
Remark: When the system power restarts, reserve R1 to discharge power.
(4) The LTE M.2 module provides 5 power pins and 11 Ground pins. To ensure that the LTE
module works normally, all the pins must be connected.

1.4.3 Full_Card_Power_Off
The M.2 LTE module can be controlled to power on/off by the Full_Card_Power_Of pin.

The recommended connections as below
1.4.4 USB interface
T77H468 module is compliant with USB2.0 in all three modes (Low speed, Full speed, and
high speed). When two devices are connected via a USB interface, one of the devices must
act as a host, and the other device must act as a peripheral. The host is responsible for
initiating and controlling traffic on the bus.
Figure 1-4-4 USB2.0 interface

1.4.5 W_DISABLE#
This control setting is implementation-specific and represents the collective intention of the
host software to manage radio operation. T77H468 provides a hardware pin (W_DISABLE#)
to disable or enable the radio. Besides, the radio can also be enabled or disabled through
software AT commands.

1.4.7 WoWWAN
The WAKE_ON_WWAN# signal is for power saving.
•LTE module always listening at very low power in idle mode
•LTE module will wake up mother board via ‘WoWWAN’ signal.
•The platform will power on when triggered by the LTE module.
The WAKE_ON_WWAN# signal is used to wake up the host. It is open drain and should be
pulled up at the host side. When the WWAN needs to wake up the host, it will output a one
second low pulse, shown in Figure 1-4-6.
Typical Connection in Platform/System
17
1.4.8 DPR (Dynamic Power Reduction)
The optional DPR signal is used by wireless devices to assist in meeting regulatory SAR
(Specific Absorption Rate) requirements for RF exposure. The signal is provided by a host
system proximity sensor to the wireless device to provide an input trigger causing a
reduction in the radio transmit output power.
The required value of the power reduction will vary between different host systems and is
left to the host platform OEM and card vendor to determine, along with the specific
implementation details. The assertion and de-assertion of DPR is asynchronous to any
system clock. All transients resulting from the proximity sensor need to be de-bounced by
system circuitry.

Remark:
a. The proximity sensor was controlled by the platform side.
b. After DPR pin becomes low level, you can set the MAX TX power by AT commands..

1.4.9 USIM
The UIM contains parameters necessary for the WWAN device’s operation in a wireless
wide area network radio environment. The UIM signals are described in the following
paragraphs for M.2 add-in cards that support the off-card UIM interface.
(1) USIM card socket
It is recommended to take electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection measures near the USIM
card socket. The USIM socket should be placed near the NGFF interface (<100 mm),
because a long circuit may impact signal quality.
(2) UIM-PWR
UIM_PWR power supply can supply 1.8 V and 2.85 V power to UIM card and auto detects
follow SIM card type
(3) SIM Detect
This signal is used to detect the insertion and removal of a SIM device in the SIM socket.
With a Normal Short SIM Card connector, PUSH-PUSH type, the detect switch is normally
shorted to ground when no SIM card is inserted. When the SIM is inserted, the
SIM_DETECT will transition from logic 0 to logic 1 state. The rising edge will indicate
insertion of the SIM card. When the SIM is pulled out, the SIM_DETECT will transition from
logic1 to logic 0. This falling edge will indicates the pulling out of the SIM card. The M.2
module monitoring this signal will treat the rising/falling edge or the actual logic state as an
interrupt, that when triggered, the module will act accordingly.
19
1.4.10 Antenna Control
T77H468 provides GPIO control signals for external antenna tuner application. The function
is under development for customization. ANTCTRL (0-3) are provided to allow for the
implementation of antenna tuning solutions. The number antenna control lines required will
depend on the application and antenna/band requirements.

1.4.12 RESET#
Asynchronous RESET# pin, active low. Whenever this pin is active, the modem will
immediately be placed in a Power On reset condition. Care should be taken not to activate
this pin unless there is a critical failure and all other methods of regaining control and/or
communication with the WWAN sub-system have failed.
The Reset# signal is relatively sensitive, it is recommended to install one capacitor
(10~100pF) near to the M.2 card pin.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2)
this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference
to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to
radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off
and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference 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 that
to 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 could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other
antenna or transmitter.
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 20 cm 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 20cm is maintained between the
antenna and users, and
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 OEM integrator is still responsible for testing their end-product for any
additional compliance requirements required with this module installed
IMPORTANT NOTE: In the event that these conditions can not be met (for example
certain laptop configurations or co-location with another transmitter), then the FCC
authorization is no longer considered valid and the FCC ID can not be used on the
final product. In these circumstances, the OEM integrator will be responsible for
re-evaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC
authorization.
End Product Labeling
This transmitter module is authorized only for use in device where the antenna may be
installed such that 20cm may be maintained between the antenna and users. The final
end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following: “Contains FCC ID:
RI7LN931NAG”. The grantee's FCC ID can be used only when all FCC compliance
requirements are met.
Manual Information To the End User
The OEM integrator has to be aware not to provide information to the end user regarding
how to install or remove this RF module in the user’s manual of the end product which
integrates this module.
The end user manual shall include all required regulatory information/warning as show in
this manual.
