P indicates power pins. VIL indicates low-level input voltage; VIH indicates high-level input voltage; VOL indicates low-
level output voltage; VOH indicates high-level output voltage. The NC (Not Connected) pins are floating and there are no signal connected to these pins. The Reserved pins are internally connected to the module. Therefore, these pins should not be used, otherwise they may cause problems. Please contact with us for more details about this information. Huawei Proprietary and Confidential Copyright Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 19 HUAWEI ME309-562 eMTC LGA Module Hardware Guide 4 Mechanical Specifications 4.1 About This Chapter Storage Requirement Moisture Sensitivity Dimensions Customer PCB Design 4.2 Storage Requirement The module must be stored and sealed properly in vacuum package under a temperature below 40C and the relative humidity less than 90% in order to ensure the weldability within 12 months. 4.3 Moisture Sensitivity The moisture sensitivity is level 3. After unpacking, the module must be assembled within 168 hours under the environmental conditions that the temperature is lower than 30C and the relative humidity is less than 60%. If the preceding conditions cannot be met, the module needs to be baked according to the parameters specified in Table 4-1 . Table 4-1 Baking parameters Baking Temperature 125C5C Baking Condition Relative humidity 60%
Baking Duration Remarks 8 hours Refer to JESD-033C in detail Moving, storing, and processing the product must comply with IPC/JEDEC J-STD-033. 4.4 Dimensions Figure 4-1 shows the dimensions of the ME309-562 module in details.

Huawei Proprietary and Confidential Copyright Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 21 HUAWEI ME309-562 eMTC LGA Module Hardware Guide 4.5 Customer PCB Design 4.5.1 PCB Surface Finish The PCB surface finish recommended is Electroless Nickel Immersion Gold (ENIG). Organic Solderability Preservative (OSP) may also be used, ENIG preferred. 4.5.2 PCB Pad Design To achieve assembly yields and solder joints of high reliability, it is recommended that the PCB pad size be designed as follows:
Figure 4-2 Footprint design of customer's PCB (Unit: mm) Huawei Proprietary and Confidential Copyright Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 22 HUAWEI ME309-562 eMTC LGA Module Hardware Guide Some detail information about the recommend module footprint:
1. 2. the yellow pins, diameter is 0.71 mm, pitch is 1.35 mm, the blue pins, diameter is 0.81 mm, pitch is 1.60 mm. Figure 4-3 Detail information about the recommend module footprint Figure 4-4 Recommended Package Size on HUAWEI motherboard (Unit: mm) Huawei Proprietary and Confidential Copyright Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 23 HUAWEI ME309-562 eMTC LGA Module Hardware Guide 4.5.3 Solder Mask Non Solder Mask Defined (NSMD) is recommended. In addition, the solder mask of the NSMD pad design is larger than the pad so the reliability of the solder joint can be improved. The solder mask must be 100 m150 m larger than the pad, that is, the single side of the solder mask must be 50 m75 m larger than the pad. The specific size depends on the processing capability of the PCB manufacturer. 4.5.4 Requirements on PCB Layout To reduce deformation, a thickness of at least 1.0 mm is recommended. Other devices must be located more than 3 mm (5 mm recommended) away from the two parallel sides of the LGA module (rework requirement),and other sides with 0.6 mm. The minimum distance between the LGA module and the PCB edge is 0.3 mm. When the PCB layout is double sided, the LGA module must be placed on the second side for assembly; so as to avoid module dropped from PCB or component (located in module) re-melding defects caused by uneven weight. Customers PCB together with ME309-562 should be placed in an enclosed box to reduce the impact of high humidity as far as possible. The bottom of the module is not allowed to put non-ground line or non-ground hole. If the design can not be achieved, then the non-gound line and hole must be covered by green oil. 4.5.5 Stencil Design It is recommended that the stencil for the LGA module be 0.15 mm in thickness. The stencil design is shown as Figure 4-5 :
Huawei Proprietary and Confidential Copyright Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 24 HUAWEI ME309-562 eMTC LGA Module Hardware Guide Figure 4-5 Recommended stencil design of LGA module (Unit: mm) The stencil design has been qualified for HUAWEI motherboard assembly, customers can adjust the parameters by their motherboard design and process situation to assure LGA soldering quality and no defect.
