Antenna Interface
Regarding the antenna of module, proper measures should be taken to reduce the access loss of
effective bands, and good shielding should be established between external antenna and RF connector.
Besides, external RF cables should be kept far away from all interference sources such as high-speed
digital signal or switch power supply.
According to mobile station standard, stationary wave ratio (SWR) of antenna should be between1.1
to 1.5, and input impedance is 50 ohm. Different environments may have different requirements on the
antenna’s gain. Generally, the larger in-band gain and smaller out-band gain, the better performance the
antenna has. Isolation among ports must more than 30dB when multi-ports antenna is used. For example,
between two different polarized ports on dual-polarized antenna, or two different frequency ports on
dual-frequency antenna, or among four ports on dual-polarized dual-frequency antenna, the isolation
should be more than 30dB.
RF_ANT, GPS_ANT (PIN16, PIN38) are respectively used as the input pin for GSM and GPS
antenna. when using these pin pads as the antenna feed pins, customers need pay attention to the following:
(1)The feed connected to PIN38 or PIN 16 is 50ohm micro-strip or strip line. To approach the module,
put π shape or Inverted-F shape matching network for later debugging.
(2)The RF wires must be kept away from the GND, and generally the distance should be 3 times of the
width of RF wires.
(3)It’s forbidden to put some interference sources such as DC to DC, WIFI module, SIM card around RF
wires or RF port.

Power-on
The module is under power-off status after it’s normally connect to the power supply. To turn on the
module, provide a low level voltage more than 2.5s to the ON/OFF PIN. The power-on time of module is
related to module status, it’s usually required low level for more than 2.5S.

Power-off
To turn off the module, provide a 3s low level pulse to the ON/OFF PIN.

Reset
If the external reset function has to be used, provide a low level pulse lasting 100ms to the /RESET
PIN to reset the module. After resetting, the module will enter power-off state, and you need to provide a
low level voltage lasting 2.5s to the ON/OFF pin to power-on the module. When resetting the module, if
the power level of ON/OFF pin in the state of low level, the module will restart automatically.
Reference circuit of power supply and reset interface are shown as Figures below.
Select appropriate parameters according to the actual selected power supply since VD1 is TVS tube,
and select CJ2305 from Changjiang Electronics or DMP2305U-7 from DIODES since VT1 is MOS tube.

The voltage output is available only when the module is on. The normal output voltage is 2.8V, and
users should absorb the current from this pin as little as possible (less than 10mA). Generally, it is
recommended to use this pin to pull up the chipset PIN as the requirements of level matching. Therefore,
it’s not recommended to use this pin for other control purposes.

Other Advice
In order to make sure the data is saved safely, please do not cut off the power when the module is on.
It’s strongly recommended to use ON/OFF pin or AT command to turn off the module.
4.2
UART Interface
The module provides an integrated full duplex UART interface. The typical baud rate is 115.2Kbps
and the max. rate is 921.6kbps.
Note:
1)The duplex UART interface could be used as serial interface for AT commands, data service, and
the default baud rate is adaptive.
2)The module’s UART output I/O level is 2.8V, therefore it needs level conversion when connecting
with 3.3V or 5V logic circuit. Otherwise, it would be damaged or unstable by the mismatch of power level
For example, if MCU communication with module through UART interface, and the MCU UART
level is 3.3V. the most common method is to use a dynatron to realize the level conversion. Figures below
show the level conversion to 3.3V through the UART interface of module. The resistance and capacitance
in figure 4-4 are just for reference, and they need to be recalculated during the design. The diode in this
Figure is Schottky diode (forward voltage drop is 0.3V). If you select other diodes, please select one with
lower forward voltage drop to make sure RXD_2V8 is below the threshold when inputting low level.

Description
Remark
The typical rate of SIM card interface is about 3.25MHz. It is recommended to place SIM card
console close to the SIM card interface to prevent the wiring from being too long(less than 100mm), which
might seriously distort the waveform and thus affect the signal integrity
The distance between the module and headset/handset should be as short as possible and it’s
enveloped by the ground wires to avoid strong interference sources.
It is recommended to make the grounding protection for SIM_CLK and SIM_DATA signal wiring.
Cascade one 1uF capacitor between VREG_SIM and GND, another 0.1uF and 33pF capacitor can be
added between VREG_UIM and GND. In order to filter out the antenna’s interference signal, add three
33pF capacitors between SIM_CLK, SIM_DATA, SIM_RST and GND.
It is recommended to take electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection measures near the SIM card socket.
The TVS diode junction capacitance less than 10 pF must be placed as close as possible to the SIM socket,
and the Ground pin of the ESD protection component is well connected to the Ground. The recommended
model is: CESDLC3V0L4//NZQA5V6AXV5T1G//PESD3V3V4UW. The reference circuit of SIM card
interface is as shown in Figure below.

The MIC1_N & MIC1_P are both differential interfaces, and they can also be used for single-ended
input. It’s recommended to use differential method to reduce the noises. The MIC2_P interface is used for
single-ended input. Directly connect to the microphone since these two inputs are internally provide 1.9V
bias voltage.

Speaker
The SPK1_P & SPK1_N are both differential interfaces with 32 ohm impedance, while the SPK2_P is
single-ended interface with 32 ohm impedance. There is no coupling capacitor internally, you need to add
it in the designing process.

Design of audio interface on the receiver
The output power of SPK1 is 35mW. Select the microphone with the sensitivity lower than -51.5dB
since and the max. gain inside MIC1 can reach 51.5dB. The voltage level of MIC1_P is about 1.9V.
NOTE:
If other kind of audio input method is adopted, the input signal should be within 0.5V. If the signal
voltage is lower than this value, then the pre-amplifier should be added. If the signal voltage is higher than
this value, then attenuation network should be added

Design of audio interface on the earpiece
The output power of SPK2 is 10.8 mW.Select the microphone with the sensitivity lower than -51.5dB
since and the max. gain inside MIC2 reaches 51.5dB. The voltage level of MIC2_P is about 1.9V.
Note: In order to achieve well audio effects, it’s recommended that:
1) During the process of using module, it’s advised to use 100pf & 33pf capacitance on its external
audio path, and serially connect with the beads to improve the audio quality.
2) Connect TVS tube or pressure sensitive resistance on the audio path (approaching the module’s
interface) to prevent the ESD from damaging the module.
3) Make sure the use environment and module are well grounded and there is no mutual influence.
4) The power ripple supplied to the module is less than 50mV.

It’s recommended to connect with GPS RF socket through a 50Ω RF cable. The good matching
between antenna and module enables GPS to obtain better receiving sensitivity. V_GPS works as the PIN
to supply 2.8-4.3V power to GPS(recommended: 3.3V);
LDO can be the power supply of GPS, and the GPIO of MCU can be used as the external
enable/disable control for the LDO. In the figure above, name the MCU control signal of LDO as GPS_EN,
which connected with MCU to control the power supply for GPS. The GPS chip can’t work independently,
and it need to work with the GSM module together to output the valid location information. The GPS data

Requirements of Module’s Position on Main board
It is recommended that the thickness of green oil at the module’s position on main board should be
less than 0.02mm. Do not cover with white oil or cover white oil on the green oil layer to avoid excessive
thickness. As the excessive thickness may cause the module cannot be effective contact with the solder
paste thus affecting the quality of welding.
The white
oil need be
removed

(The figure is just for reference; it doesn’t represent the actual module encapsulation)
In addition, do not lay out other components within 2mm around the module’s position on main board
to ensure the maintenance of the module.

6.4
Module Planeness Standard
The module’s planeness is required to be 0.15mm. Measurement method: put the module on the
marble plane, use the feeler gage to measure the gap width at the position of maximum warp, and do not
exert force on the module during the measurement.
6.5
Process Routing Selection
The modules are manufactured with the lead-free process and meet the ROHS requirements, therefore
it’s recommended to follow the lead-free manufacturing process upon the selection of process routing for
module board and main board.
6.5.1
Solder Paste Selection
The solder pastes with metal particle TYPE3 and TYPE4 can fulfill the welding requirements. It is
accordingly recommended to use the no-clean solder paste. If the solder paste which needs cleaning is used,
we cannot guarantee the components on the module board could withstand the washing of the cleaning
solvents. This might cause the functional problems of such components and affect the appearance of the
module. During the printing process, make sure the solder paste’s thickness at the position of module’s
PAD is within 0.18mm -0.20mm.
6.5.2
Design of module PAD’s steel mesh opening on main board
The thickness of the steel mesh on main board is selected according to the encapsulation type of
components on the main board. Pay attention to the following requirements:
1) Make sure to design the module PAD on main board according to section 2.1.
2) The thickness of steel mesh is 0.15mm or 0.18mm, but the thickness at the position of module pad
can be increased to 0.18~0.20mm or the thickness of steel mesh is directly 0.18mm~0.20mm on
main board.
3) Requirements on the thickness of solder paste: control the thickness between 0.18mm and
0.20mm.
4) See the LCC module PAD’s steel mesh opening in the following table:

1) SMT Pallets:
The pallets, which are suitable for SMT, have been made for most ZTE modules. If the module has
provided the pallets itself and meets the SMT requirements, customers can directly use it for module SMT.

Material Module Pallet
(The figure is just for reference; it doesn’t represent the actual Material Module Pallet)
Otherwise, customers need make a loading tool similar to the pallet. Customers can take out the
module from the packaging box, put them into the pallet according to the sequence and direction, and then
start SMT.
2)
Mounting Pressure:
In order to ensure a good contact between the module and the solder paste on main board, the pressure
of placing the module board on main board should be 2-5N according to our experiences. Different
modules have different numbers of pads, therefore the pressure selected are different. Customers can select
proper pressure based on their own situations to suppress the module paste as little as possible, in order to
avoid the surface tension of the solder paste melts too much to drag the module during reflow.
6.5.4
Module Soldering Reflow Curve
Module soldering furnace temperature curve is:
Peak value: 245+0/-5℃
≥217℃: 30~~60S
150~200℃: 60~~120S

Module Furnace Temperature Curve Diagram
Note: The test board of furnace temperature must be the main board with the module board mounted
on, and there must be testing points at the position of module board.
6.5.5
Reflow method
If the main board used by customers is a double-sided board, it is recommended to mount the module
board at the second time. In addition, it is preferable for the main board to reflow on the mesh belt when
mounting at the first time and the second time. If such failure is caused by any special reason, the fixture
should be also used to make such main board reflow on the track so as to avoid the deformation of PCB
during the reflow process.
6.5.6
