If the voltage drop is exceeding the limits it could cause a Power Off of the module. The Power supply must be higher than 3.22 V to power on the module Overshoot voltage (regarding MAX Extended Operating Voltage) and drop in voltage (regarding MIN Extended Operating Voltage) MUST never be exceeded; The “Extended Operating Voltage Range” can be used only with completely assumption and application of the HW User guide suggestions.

UE910 3G HARDWARE USER GUIDE 1vv0301171 Rev.3 • 2015-04-17 22 of 78 Reproduction forbidden without Telit Communications PLC written authorization – All Rights Reserved 4.3 General Design Rules The principal guidelines for the Power Supply Design embrace three different design steps:  the electrical design  the thermal design  the PCB layout. Electrical Design Guidelines The electrical design of the power supply depends strongly from the power source where this power is drained. We will distinguish them into three categories:  +5V input (typically PC internal regulator output)  +12V input (typically automotive)  Battery +5V Source Power Supply Design Guidelines  The desired output for the power supply is 3.8V, hence there's not a big difference between the input source and the desired output and a linear regulator can be used. A switching power supply will not be suited because of the low drop out requirements.  When using a linear regulator, a proper heat sink shall be provided in order to dissipate the power generated.  A Bypass low ESR capacitor of adequate capacity must be provided in order to cut the current absorption peaks close to the Module, a 100μF capacitor is usually suited.  Make sure the low ESR capacitor on the power supply output rated at least 10V. An example of linear regulator with 5V input is:
UE910 3G HARDWARE USER GUIDE 1vv0301171 Rev.3 • 2015-04-17 23 of 78 Reproduction forbidden without Telit Communications PLC written authorization – All Rights Reserved + 12V input Source Power Supply Design Guidelines  The desired output for the power supply is 3.8V, hence due to the big difference between the input source and the desired output, a linear regulator is not suited and shall not be used. A switching power supply will be preferable because of its better efficiency.  When using a switching regulator, a 500kHz or more switching frequency regulator is preferable because of its smaller inductor size and its faster transient response. This allows the regulator to respond quickly to the current peaks absorption.  In any case the frequency and Switching design selection is related to the application to be developed due to the fact the switching frequency could also generate EMC interferences.  For car PB battery the input voltage can rise up to 15,8V and this should be kept in mind when choosing components: all components in the power supply must withstand this voltage.  A Bypass low ESR capacitor of adequate capacity must be provided in order to cut the current absorption peaks, a 100μF capacitor is usually suited.  Make sure the low ESR capacitor on the power supply output is rated at least 10V.  For Car applications a spike protection diode should be inserted close to the power input, in order to clean the supply from spikes. An example of switching regulator with 12V input is in the below schematic:
UE910 3G HARDWARE USER GUIDE 1vv0301171 Rev.3 • 2015-04-17 24 of 78 Reproduction forbidden without Telit Communications PLC written authorization – All Rights Reserved Battery Source Power Supply Design Guidelines The desired nominal output for the power supply is 3.8V and the maximum voltage allowed is 4.2V, hence a single 3.7V Li-Ion cell battery type is suited for supplying the power to the Telit UE910 module.  A Bypass low ESR capacitor of adequate capacity must be provided in order to cut the current absorption peaks, a 100μF tantalum capacitor is usually suited.  Make sure the low ESR capacitor (usually a tantalum one) is rated at least 10V.  A protection diode should be inserted close to the power input, in order to save the UE910 from power polarity inversion. Otherwise the battery connector should be done in a way to avoid polarity inversions when connecting the battery.  The battery capacity must be at least 500mAh in order to withstand the current peaks of 2A; the suggested capacity is from 500mAh to 1000mAh.

UE910 3G HARDWARE USER GUIDE 1vv0301171 Rev.3 • 2015-04-17 25 of 78 Reproduction forbidden without Telit Communications PLC written authorization – All Rights Reserved Thermal Design Guidelines The thermal design for the power supply heat sink should be done with the following specifications:  Average current consumption during HSDPA transmission @PWR level max : 700 mA  Average current during idle: 1.8 mA Considering the very low current during idle, especially if Power Saving function is enabled, it is possible to consider from the thermal point of view that the device absorbs current significantly only during calls. If we assume that the device stays into transmission for short periods of time (let's say few minutes) and then remains for a quite long time in idle (let's say one hour), then the power supply has always the time to cool down between the calls and the heat sink could be smaller than the calculated one for 700mA maximum RMS current, or even could be the simple chip package (no heat sink). Moreover in the average network conditions the device is requested to transmit at a lower power level than the maximum and hence the current consumption will be less than the 700mA, being usually around 150mA. For these reasons the thermal design is rarely a concern and the simple ground plane where the power supply chip is placed can be enough to ensure a good thermal condition and avoid overheating. The generated heat will be mostly conducted to the ground plane under the UE910; you must ensure that your application can dissipate it. NOTE: The average consumption during transmissions depends on the power level at which the device is requested to transmit by the network. The average current consumption hence varies significantly.
UE910 3G HARDWARE USER GUIDE 1vv0301171 Rev.3 • 2015-04-17 26 of 78 Reproduction forbidden without Telit Communications PLC written authorization – All Rights Reserved Power Supply PCB layout Guidelines As seen on the electrical design guidelines the power supply shall have a low ESR capacitor on the output to cut the current peaks on the input to protect the supply from spikes The placement of this component is crucial for the correct working of the circuitry. A misplaced component can be useless or can even decrease the power supply performances.  The Bypass low ESR capacitor must be placed close to the Telit UE910 power input pads or in the case the power supply is a switching type it can be placed close to the inductor to cut the ripple provided the PCB trace from the capacitor to the UE910 is wide enough to ensure a dropless connection even during an 1A current peak.  The protection diode must be placed close to the input connector where the power source is drained.  The PCB traces from the input connector to the power regulator IC must be wide enough to ensure no voltage drops occur when an 1A current peak is absorbed.  The PCB traces to the UE910 and the Bypass capacitor must be wide enough to ensure no significant voltage drops occur. This is for the same reason as previous point. Try to keep this trace as short as possible.  To reduce the EMI due to switching, it is important to keep very small the mesh involved; thus the input capacitor, the output diode (if not embodied in the IC) and the regulator have to form a very small loop.This is done in order to reduce the radiated field (noise) at the switching frequency (100-500 kHz usually).  A dedicated ground for the Switching regulator separated by the common ground plane is suggested.  The placement of the power supply on the board should be done in such a way to guarantee that the high current return paths in the ground plane are not overlapped to any noise sensitive circuitry as the microphone amplifier/buffer or earphone amplifier.  The power supply input cables should be kept separate from noise sensitive lines such as microphone/earphone cables.  The insertion of EMI filter on VBATT pins is suggested in those designs where antenna is placed close to battery or supply lines. A ferrite bead like Murata BLM18EG101TN1 or Taiyo Yuden P/N FBMH1608HM101 can be used for this purpose. The below figure shows the recommended circuit:

Whenever this signal is pulled low, the UE910 is reset. When the device is reset it stops any operation. After the release of the line, the UE910 is unconditionally shut down, without doing any detach operation from the network where it is registered. This behaviour is not a proper shut down because any WCDMA device is requested to issue a detach request on turn off. The HW_SHUTDOWN* is internally controlled on start-up to achieve always a proper power-on reset sequence, so there's no need to control this pin on start-up. To unconditionally shutdown the UE910, the pad HW_SHUTDOWN* must be tied low for at least 200 milliseconds and then released. The signal is internally pulled up so the pin can be left floating if not used.

This level translator must:  invert the electrical signal in both directions;  Change the level from 0/1.8V to +15/-15V. Actually, the RS232 UART 16450, 16550, 16650 & 16750 chipsets accept signals with lower levels on the RS232 side (EIA/TIA-562), allowing a lower voltage-multiplying ratio on the level translator. Note that the negative signal voltage must be less than 0V and hence some sort of level translation is always required. The simplest way to translate the levels and invert the signal is by using a single chip level translator. There are a multitude of them, differing in the number of drivers and receivers and in the levels (be sure to get a true RS232 level translator not a RS485 or other standards). By convention the driver is the level translator from the 0-1.8V UART to the RS232 level. The receiver is the translator from the RS232 level to 0-1.8V UART. In order to translate the whole set of control lines of the UART you will need:  5 drivers  3 receivers An example of RS232 level adaptation circuitry could be done using a MAXIM transceiver (MAX218) In this case the chipset is capable to translate directly from 1.8V to the RS232 levels (Example done on 4 signals only). The RS232 serial port lines are usually connected to a DB9 connector with the following layout:

UE910 3G HARDWARE USER GUIDE 1vv0301171 Rev.3 • 2015-04-17 53 of 78 Reproduction forbidden without Telit Communications PLC written authorization – All Rights Reserved PCB Guidelines in case of FCC Certification In the case FCC certification is required for an application using UE910-N3G, according to FCC KDB 996369 for modular approval requirements, the transmission line has to be similar to that implemented on UE910 interface board and described in the following chapter. Transmission line design During the design of the UE910 interface board, the placement of components has been chosen properly, in order to keep the line length as short as possible, thus leading to lowest power losses possible. A Grounded Coplanar Waveguide (G-CPW) line has been chosen, since this kind of transmission line ensures good impedance control and can be implemented in an outer PCB layer as needed in this case. A SMA female connector has been used to feed the line. The interface board is realized on a FR4, 4-layers PCB. Substrate material is characterized by relative permittivity εr = 4.6 ± 0.4 @ 1 GHz, TanD= 0.019 ÷ 0.026 @ 1 GHz. A characteristic impedance of nearly 50 Ω is achieved using trace width = 1.1 mm, clearance from coplanar ground plane = 0.3 mm each side. The line uses reference ground plane on layer 3, while copper is removed from layer 2 underneath the line. Height of trace above ground plane is 1.335 mm. Calculated characteristic impedance is 51.6 Ω, estimated line loss is less than 0.1 dB. The line geometry is shown below:

This sounds strange; usually the connection to use in order to reject the common mode is the balanced one. In this situation we have to recall that the microphone is a sound to current transducer, so the resistor is the current to tension transducer, so finally the resistor feeds the input in balanced way even if the configuration, from a microphone point of view, seems to be un-balanced. The following images show some connection examples:
UE910 3G HARDWARE USER GUIDE 1vv0301171 Rev.3 • 2015-04-17 59 of 78 Reproduction forbidden without Telit Communications PLC written authorization – All Rights Reserved If a "balanced way" is anyway desired, much more care has to be taken to Vmic noise and ground noise; also the 33pF-100Ohm-33pF RF-filter has to be doubled (one each wire). NOTE: Since the J-FET transistor inside the microphone acts as RF-detector-amplifier, ask vendor for a microphone with anti-EMI capacitor (usually a 33pF or a 10pF capacitor placed across the output terminals inside the case).

Place 100nF capacitor in series with both inputs, so the DC current is blocked. Place the 33pF-100Ohm-33pF RF-filter, in order to prevent some EMI field to get into the high impedance high gain MIC inputs. Since the input is differential, the common mode voltage noise between the two (different) ground is rejected, provided that both MIC+ & MIC- are connected directly onto the source.

These outputs can drive directly a small loudspeaker with electrical impedance not lower than 16 Ohm. NOTE: In order to get the maximum audio level at a given output voltage level (dBspl/Vrms), the following breaking through procedure can be used. Have the loudspeaker as close as you can to the listener (this simplify also the echo cancelling); choose the loudspeaker with the higher sensitivity (dBspl per W); choose loudspeakers with the impedance close to the limit, in order to feed more power inside the transducer (it increases the W/Vrms ratio). If this were not enough, an external amplifier should be used.

Recommendations for PCB pad surfaces: Finish Layer Thickness (um) Properties Electro-less Ni / Immersion Au 3 –7 / 0.05 – 0.15 good solder ability protection, high shear force values The PCB must be able to resist the higher temperatures which are occurring at the lead-free process. This issue should be discussed with the PCB-supplier. Generally, the wettability of tin-lead solder paste on the described surface plating is better compared to lead-free solder paste. It is not necessary to panel the application’s PCB, however in that case it is suggested to use milled contours and predrilled board breakouts; scoring or v-cut solutions are not recommended.
