Resetting the UL865-N3G V2
5.3.1.
Hardware Unconditional restart
To unconditionally reboot the UL865-N3G V2, the pad RESET* must be tied low for at
least 200 milliseconds and then released.
The maximum current that can be drained from the ON* pad is 0,15 mA.
WARNING:
The hardware unconditional Restart must not be used during normal operation of the
device since it does not detach the device from the network. It shall be kept as an
emergency exit procedure to be done in the rare case that the device gets stuck waiting for
some network or SIM responses.
NOTE:
Do not use any pull up resistor on the RESET* line nor any totem pole digital output.
Using pull up resistor may bring to latch up problems on the UL865-N3G V2 power
regulator and improper functioning of the module.
The line RESET* must be connected only in open collector configuration; the transistor
must be connected as close as possible to the RESET* pin.
TIP:
The unconditional hardware restart must always be implemented on the boards and the
software must use it as an emergency exit procedure.

Power Supply
The power supply circuitry and board layout are a very important part in the full product
design and they strongly reflect on the product overall performance, hence read the
requirements carefully and the guidelines that will follow for a proper design.
6.1.
Power Supply Requirements
The external power supply must be connected to VBATT & VBATT_PA signals and
must fulfill the following requirements:
POWER SUPPLY
Nominal Supply Voltage
Normal Operating Voltage Range
Extended Operating Voltage Range
3.8 V
3.40 V÷ 4.20 V
3.1 V÷ 4.50 V
NOTE:
The Operating Voltage Range MUST never be exceeded; care must be taken in order to
fulfil min/max voltage requirement.
NOTE:
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 complete assumption
and application of the HW User guide suggestions.
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.

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.
6.3.1.
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

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 UL865-N3G V2, a 100μF tantalum capacitor
is usually suited.
Make sure the low ESR capacitor on the power supply output (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
UL865-N3G V2 from power polarity inversion.
An example of linear regulator with 5V input is:

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 especially with the 2A peak current load represented by the UL865-N3G
V2.
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 tantalum capacitor is usually suited.
Make sure the low ESR capacitor on the power supply output (usually a tantalum
one) 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.
A protection diode should be inserted close to the power input, in order to save the
UL865-N3G V2 from power polarity inversion. This can be the same diode as for
spike protection.

6.3.1.1. 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 UL865-N3G V2 module.
WARNING:
The three cells Ni/Cd or Ni/MH 3,6 V Nom. battery types or 4V PB types MUST NOT
BE USED DIRECTLY since their maximum voltage can rise over the absolute maximum
voltage for the UL865-N3G V2 and damage it.
NOTE:
DON'T USE any Ni-Cd, Ni-MH, and Pb battery types directly connected with UL865N3G V2. Their use can lead to overvoltage on the UL865-N3G V2 and damage it. USE
ONLY Li-Ion battery types.

6.3.2.
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 :
600 mA

Average current during idle:
1.5 mA
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.
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 600mA 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
600mA, 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.
For the heat generated by the UL865-N3G V2, you can consider it to be during transmission
1W max during CSD/VOICE calls.
This generated heat will be mostly conducted to the ground plane under the UL865-N3G V2;
you must ensure that your application can dissipate it.

6.3.3.
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 and a protection diode on the input to protect the supply
from spikes and polarity inversion. The placement of these components 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 UL865-N3G V2
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 UL865-N3G V2 is wide enough to ensure a dropless connection
even during the 2A current peaks.

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 the 2A current peaks are absorbed.
Note that this is not made in order to save power loss but especially to avoid the
voltage drops on the power line at the current peaks frequency of 216 Hz that
will reflect on all the components connected to that supply, introducing the noise
floor at the burst base frequency. For this reason while a voltage drop of 300-400
mV may be acceptable from the power loss point of view, the same voltage drop
may not be acceptable from the noise point of view. If your application doesn't
have audio interface but only uses the data feature of the Telit UL865-N3G V2,
then this noise is not so disturbing and power supply layout design can be more
forgiving.

The PCB traces to the UL865-N3G V2 and the Bypass capacitor must be wide
enough to ensure no significant voltage drops occur when the 2A current peaks
are absorbed. This is for the same reason as previous point. Try to keep this trace
as short as possible.

The PCB traces connecting the Switching output to the inductor and the
switching diode must be kept as short as possible by placing the inductor and the
diode very close to the power switching IC (only for switching power supply).
This is done in order to reduce the radiated field (noise) at the switching
frequency (100-500 kHz usually).

The use of a good 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.

UL865-N3G V2 Antenna – PCB line Guidelines
When using the Telit UL865-N3G V2 module, since there's no antenna connector on the
module, the antenna must be connected to the UL865-N3G V2 through the PCB with the
antenna pad (pin 34).
In the case that the antenna is not directly developed on the same PCB, hence directly
connected at the antenna pad of the UL865-N3G V2, then a PCB line is needed in order to
connect with it or with its connector.
This transmission line shall fulfill the following requirements:
ANTENNA LINE ON PCB REQUIREMENTS
50 ohm
Impedance
0,3 dB
Max Attenuation
No coupling with other signals allowed
Cold End (Ground Plane) of antenna shall be equipotential to the
UL865-N3G V2 ground pins
This transmission line should be designed according to the following guidelines:
Ensure that the antenna line impedance is 50 ohm;
Keep the antenna line on the PCB as short as possible, since the antenna line loss shall be
less than 0,3 dB;
Antenna line must have uniform characteristics, constant cross section; avoid meanders and
abrupt curves;
Keep, if possible, one layer of the PCB used only for the Ground plane;
Surround (on the sides, over and under) the antenna line on PCB with Ground, avoid having
other signal tracks facing directly the antenna line track;
The ground around the antenna line on PCB has to be strictly connected to the Ground Plane
by placing vias every 2mm at least;
Place EM noisy devices as far as possible from UL865-N3G V2 antenna line;
Keep the antenna line far away from the UL865-N3G V2 power supply lines;
If you have EM noisy devices around the PCB hosting the UL865-N3G V2, such as fast
switching ICs, take care of the shielding of the antenna line by burying it inside the layers of
PCB and surround it with Ground planes, or shield it with a metal frame cover.
If you don't have EM noisy devices around the PCB of UL865-N3G V2, by using a micro
strip on the superficial copper layer for the antenna line, the line attenuation will be lower
than a buried one;

PCB Guidelines in case of FCC certification
In the case FCC certification is required for an application using UL865-N3G V2, according
to FCC KDB 996369 for modular approval requirements, the transmission line has to be
similar to that implemented on UL865-N3G V2 interface board and described in the following
chapter.
7.8.1.
Transmission line design
During the design of the UL865-N3G V2 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:

Transmission line measurements
HP8753E VNA (Full-2-port calibration) has been used in this measurement session. A
calibrated coaxial cable has been soldered at the pad corresponding to RF output; a SMA
connector has been soldered to the board in order to characterize the losses of the transmission
line including the connector itself. During Return Loss / impedance measurements, the
transmission line has been terminated to 50 Ω load.

UL865-N3G V2 is unconditionally shut down, without doing any detach operation from the
network where it is registered. This behavior is not a proper shut down because any GSM
device is requested to issue a detach request on turn off. For this reason the Reset signal must
not be used to normally shutting down the device, but only as an emergency exit in the rare
case the device remains stuck waiting for some network response.
The RESET* is internally controlled on start-up to achieve a proper power-on reset sequence,
so there's no need to control this pin on start-up. It may only be used to reset a device already
on that is not responding to any command.
NOTE:
Do not use this signal to power OFF the UL865-N3G V2. Use the ON/OFF procedure to
perform this function.

(NOTE1) this signal is internally pulled up so the pin can be left floating if not used.
If unused, this signal may be left unconnected. If used, then it must always be connected with
an open collector transistor, to permit to the internal circuitry the power on reset and under
voltage lockout functions.

Serial Ports
The serial port on the UL865-N3G V2 is the core of the interface between the module and
OEM hardware.
2 serial ports are available on the module:
 MODEM SERIAL PORT 1 (Main, ASC0)
 MODEM SERIAL PORT 2 (Auxiliary, ASC1)
11.1.
MODEM SERIAL PORT 1
Several configurations can be designed for the serial port on the OEM hardware, but the most
common are:
 RS232 PC com port
 microcontroller UART @ 1.8V (Universal Asynchronous Receive Transmit)
 microcontroller UART @ 3V or other voltages different from 1.8V
 microcontroller UART @ 5V or other voltages different from 1.8V
Depending from the type of serial port on the OEM hardware a level translator circuit may be
needed to make the system work. The only configuration that doesn't need a level translation
is the 1.8V UART.
The serial port on the UL865-N3G V2 is a +1.8V UART with all the 8 RS232 signals. It
differs from the PC-RS232 in the signal polarity (RS232 is reversed) and levels. The levels
for the UL865-N3G V2 UART are the CMOS levels:

NOTE:
According to V.24, RX/TX signal names are referred to the application side, therefore on the
UL865-N3G V2 side these signal are on the opposite direction: TXD on the application side
will be connected to the receive line (here named TXD/ rx_uart ) of the UL865-N3G V2
serial port and vice versa for RX.
NOTE:
For a minimum implementation, only the TXD and RXD lines can be connected, the other
lines can be left open provided a software flow control is implemented.
NOTE:
In order to avoid a back powering effect it is recommended to avoid having any HIGH logic
level signal applied to the digital pins of the UL865-N3G V2 when the module is powered off
or during an ON/OFF transition.

11.3.
RS232 level translation
In order to interface the UL865-N3G V2 with a PC com port or a RS232 (EIA/TIA-232)
application a level translator is required. 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
NOTE:
The digital input lines working at 1.8V CMOS have an absolute maximum input voltage of
2.1V; therefore the level translator IC shall not be powered by the +3.8V supply of the
module. Instead, it must be powered from a +1.8V (dedicated) power supply.

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 0/1.8V 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:

General Purpose I/O
The general purpose I/O pads can be configured to act in three different ways:
 input
 output
 alternate function (internally controlled)
Input pads can be read; they report the digital value (high or low) present on the pad at the
read time.
Output pads can only be written or queried and set the value of the pad output.
An alternate function pad is internally controlled by the UL865-N3G V2 firmware and acts
depending on the function implemented.

Using a GPIO Pad as INPUT
The GPIO pads, when used as inputs, can be connected to a digital output of another device
and report its status, provided this device has interface levels compatible with the 1.8V
CMOS levels of the GPIO.
If the digital output of the device to be connected with the GPIO input pad has interface levels
different from the 1.8V CMOS, then it can be buffered with an open collector transistor with a
47K pull up to 1.8V.
NOTE:
In order to avoid a back powering effect it is recommended to avoid having any HIGH logic
level signal applied to the digital pins of the UL865-N3G V2 when the module is powered
OFF or during an ON/OFF transition.
TIP:
The V_AUX / PWRMON pin can be used for input pull up reference or/and for ON
monitoring.
13.3.
Using a GPIO Pad as OUTPUT
The GPIO pads, when used as outputs, can drive 1.8V CMOS digital devices or compatible
hardware. When set as outputs, the pads have a push-pull output and therefore the pull-up
resistor may be omitted.

RTC Bypass out
The VRTC pin brings out the Real Time Clock supply, which is separate from the rest of the
digital part, allowing having only RTC going on when all the other parts of the device are off.
To this power output a backup capacitor can be added in order to increase the RTC autonomy
during power off of the battery. NO Devices must be powered from this pin.
In order to keep the RTC active when VBATT is not supplied it is possible to back up the
RTC section connecting a backup circuit to the related VRTC signal (pad 30 on module’s
Pinout).

14.1.1. Description
The UL865-N3G V2 provides a Digital to Analog Converter. The signal (named DAC_OUT)
is available on pin 15 of the UL865-N3G V2.
The on board DAC is a 10 bit converter, able to generate an analogue value based on a
specific input in the range from 0 up to 1023. However, an external low-pass filter is
necessary

Steps
The precision is 10 bits so, if we consider that the maximum voltage is 2V, the integrated
voltage could be calculated with the following formula:
Integrated output voltage = (2 *value) / 1023
DAC_OUT line must be integrated (for example with a low band pass filter) in order to obtain
an analog voltage.

Holes in pad are allowed only for blind holes and not for through holes.
Recommendations for PCB pad surfaces:
Finish
Layer thickness [µm]
Electro-less Ni / Immersion Au
3 –7 / 0.03 – 0.15
Properties
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 tinlead solder paste on the described surface plating is better compared to lead-free solder paste.
It is not necessary to panel the application PCB, however in that case it is suggested to use milled
contours and predrilled board breakouts; scoring or v-cut solutions are not recommended.

Solder paste
We recommend using only “no clean” solder paste in order to avoid the cleaning of
the modules after assembly.
