FUNCTIONAL INTEGRATION The improvement of Silicon technologies heads toward functionality improvement, less power consumption. The HiloNC module meets all these requirement and use last high end technology.
All digital I/Os among the 51 pads are in 2.8V domain which is suitable for most systems except :
- VSIM (the SIM I/Os at 1.8V or 2.9V)
- VBAT (from 3.2V to 4.5V).

Reproduction and disclosure prohibited 3.1 HOW TO CONNECT TO A SIM CARD page 10/35 Figure 2: SIM Card signals HiloNC module provides the SIM signals on the 51 pads. A SIM card holder with 6 pads needs to be adopted to use the SIM function.
Decoupling capacitors have to be added on SIM_CLK, SIM_RST, VSIM and SIM_DATA signals as close as possible to the SIM card connector to avoid EMC issues.
Use ESD protection components to protect SIM card and module I/Os against Electro Static Discharges. The following schematic show how to protect the SIM access for 6 pads connector. Figure 3: Protections: EMC and ESD components close to the SIM Note dtude / Technical document : URD1 OTL 5665.1 002 / 70 884 Edition 03 Document Sagem Communications Reproduction et divulgation interdites Sagem Communications document. Reproduction and disclosure prohibited 3.2 HOW TO CONNECT THE AUDIOS?
page 11/35 The HiloNC module features one input audio path and one output audio path. The input path is single-end while the output path is differential. In this following chapter examples of design will be given including protections against EMC and ESD and some notes about the routing rules to follow to avoid the TDMA noise usually present in this sensitive area of design.
Please note that acoustic competences are mandatory to get accurate audio performance on customers product. 3.2.1 Connecting microphone and speaker The HiloNC module can manage an external microphone (INTMIC_P) in single-end mode and an external speaker (HSET_OUT_P / HSET_OUT_N) in differential mode. Thus, one speaker and one microphone can be connected to the module. The bias supply to microphone is implemented in the module.
The speaker connected to the module should be 32 ohms. HiloNC HSET_OUT_P HSET_OUT_N INTMIC_P Filter and ESD protection 32ohms speaker MIC Figure 4: Audio connection If the design is ESD or EMC sensitive we strongly recommend to read the notes below. The weakness can either come from the PCB routing and placement or from the chosen components (or both). 3.2.1.1 Notes for microphone
Pay attention to the microphone device, it must not be sensitive to RF disturbances.
Some microphones include two spatial microphones inside the same shell and allow to make an electrical difference between the environment noise (received by one of the two mic.) and the active signal
(received by the other mic. + noise) resulting in a very high SNR.
If you need to have deported microphone out of the board with long wires, you should pay attention to the EMC and ESD effect. It is also the case when your design is ESD sensitive. In those cases, add the following protections to improve your design.
To ensure proper operation of such sensitive signals, they have to be isolated from the others by analogue ground on customers board layout. (Refer to Layout design chapter) Note dtude / Technical document : URD1 OTL 5665.1 002 / 70 884 Edition 03 Document Sagem Communications Reproduction et divulgation interdites Sagem Communications document.

HSET_OUT_P, HSET_OUT_N tracks must be larger than other tracks: 0.1 mm.
As described in the layout chapter, differential signals have to be routed in parallel (HSET_OUT_P and HSET_OUT_N signals)
The impedance of audio chain (filter + speaker) must be lower than 32 Ohm. 3.2.2 Recommended characteristics for the microphone and speaker Note dtude / Technical document : URD1 OTL 5665.1 002 / 70 884 Edition 03 Document Sagem Communications Reproduction et divulgation interdites Sagem Communications document.

They can be configured with appropriate AT command (for more details refer to AT command set for Sagem HiloNC module specification). User application can set for each output:
Frequency between : 25.6KHz and 1083.3KHz
- Duty range from: 0 to 100%

Please note available PWM frequencies are too high to be used to make LEDs blinking. If purpose is to make LEDs blinking (for network states indication for example), GPIO usage is more accurate. 3.3.2 PWM for Buzzer connection The HiloNC module can manage a dedicate PWM output to drive a buzzer. The buzzer can be used to alarm for abnormal state.
Resistors should be added to protect the buzzer. The value of these resistors depends on the buzzer and the transistor. Normally, they can be set as 1K ohm. VBAT HiloNC R1 R2 PWM2 Figure 7: Buzzer connection 3.4 POWER SUPPLY The HiloNC module can be supplied by a battery or any DC/DC converter compliant with the module supply range 3.2V to 4.5V 2.2 A.
The PCB tracks must be well dimensioned to support 2.2 A maximum current. The voltage ripple caused by resistance of power supply path (Battery internal resistance, tracks and contact resistance) could result in the low voltage to the module.
The HiloNC module does not manage the battery charging. 3.4.1.1 Burst conditions
- Communication mode (worst case: 2 continuous GSM time-slot pulse):
A 47F capacitor is highly recommended for VBAT and close to the module.

It is recommended to manage an external access to the V24 interface, in order to allow easy software upgrade (baud rate up to 460.8kbps, validated with ATEN USB/Serial converter).
Pull-up resistors must be connected to DCD, DSR and RI signals if these signals are used. 3.6.1 Complete V24 connection HiloNC - host A V24 interface is provided on the 51 pads of the HiloNC module with the following signals: RTS/CTS, RXD/TXD, DSR, DTR, DCD, RI.

We need RTS active (low electrical level), a loop RTS on CTS is sufficient because CTS is active (low electrical level) once the HiloNC is switched on.
DCD and RI can stay not connected and floating. 3.6.5 Design impact on DTR usage The designer must consider when choosing V24 design that DTR can be used for several purposes :
flow control of V24 interface (see chapter 3.6.2) enter/exit sleep mode of HiloNC module if AT+KSLEEP=0 has been configured (see chapter 3.14) switch between command/data modes
Depending of the HiloNC/Host V24 connexion, the DTR can be usable by customer or not (if always connected to DSR) and then has impact on sleep mode management and AT command/data modes management. 3.7 SPI HiloNC module manages a host SPI interface. This SPI interface is dedicated for trace.
Sagem Communications strongly recommends leaving this interface externally accessible for trace (e.g. access by test point pads).

The GPIO1, GPIO2 and GPIO3 have internal pull-up resistors while GPIO4 and GPIO5 are open collector.
If GPIO4 and GPIO5 are used as output, they must be pulled up to VGPIO. The typical value of the pull-up resisters is 100K ohms. 3.9 BACKUP BATTERY 3.9.1 Backup battery function feature 3.9.1.1 With backup battery A backup battery can be connected to the module in order to supply internal RTC (Real Time Clock) when the main power supply is removed. Thus, when the main power supply is removed, the RTC is still supplied and the module keeps the time running. With external backup battery:
If VBAT < 3V, internal RTC is supplied by VBACKUP. If VBAT > =3V, internal RTC is supplied by VBAT. 3.9.1.2 Without backup battery Without backup battery If VBAT > 1.5V, internal RTC is supplied by VBAT. If VBAT < 1.5V, internal RTC is not supplied.
VBACKUP input of the module has to be connected to a 10F capacitor (between VBACKUP and GND).
SAGEM does not recommend to connect VBACKUP signal to VBAT. However, if VBACKUP has been connected to VBAT, this has no influence if VBAT is between 3.2V and 4.2V. For VBAT above 4.2V the module can take a longer time to start at low temperature. 3.9.2 Current consumption on the backup battery When the power supply is removed, the internal RTC will be supplied by backup battery.
To calculate the backup battery capacity, consider that Current consumption for RTC on the backup battery is below 2,6A depending on the temperature. Pin Name Min VBACKUP Max 2.6A 3.9.3 Charge by internal HiloNC charging function The charging function is available on the HiloNC without any additional external power supply (the charging power supply is provided by the HiloNC).
Charge of the back-up battery occurs only when main power supply VBAT is provided. The recommended schematic is given hereafter:

The charging curve which is done by the HiloNC is given hereafter:
Figure 18: Charging curve of backup battery 3.9.4 Backup Battery technology recommended 3.9.4.1 Manganese Silicon Lithium-Ion rechargeable Battery Sagem Communications does not recommend using this kind of technology because of the following drawbacks:
The maximum discharge current is limited (Shall be compliant with the module characteristics). The over-discharge problem: most of the Lithium Ion rechargeable batteries are not able to recover their charge when their voltage reaches a low-level voltage. To avoid this, it is necessary to add a safety component to disconnect the backup .battery in case of overdischarge condition. In such a case, this implementation is too complicated (too much components for that function). The charging current has to be regulated.
Sagem Communications does not recommend using this kind of backup battery technology. 3.9.4.2 Capacitor battery These kinds of backup battery have not the drawbacks of the Lithium Ion rechargeable battery. As there are only capacitors:
The maximum discharge current is generally bigger, There is no problem of over-discharge: the capacitor is able to recover its full charge even if its voltage has previously fallen to 0V. There is no need to regulate the charging current. Note dtude / Technical document : URD1 OTL 5665.1 002 / 70 884 Edition 03 Document Sagem Communications Reproduction et divulgation interdites Sagem Communications document. Reproduction and disclosure prohibited page 22/35 Moreover, this kind of battery is available in the same kind of package than the Lithium Ion cell and fully compatible on a mechanical point of view. The only disadvantage is that the capacity of this kind of battery is significantly smaller than Manganese Silicon Lithium Ion battery. But for this kind of use (supply internal RTC when the main battery is removed), the capacity is generally enough.
Sagem Communications strongly recommends using this kind of backup battery technology. 3.10 HARDWARE POWER MANAGEMENT AND MULTIPLEXING INTERFACES In case hardware power management and multiplexing are used, it is necessary to isolate host and HiloNC module in order not to generate current re-injection when HiloNC is switched-off. Typical schematic (only useful signals are represented):
VGPIO DTR, RTS, RXD HiloNC DCD, DSR, CTS, TXD, RI Buffer Tri-state command Host Solution 1 Solution 2 Figure 19: Hardware interface between HiloNC and host In general, solution1 is enough to protect HiloNC module. 3.11 STARTING THE MODULE First power up VBAT, which must be in the range 3.2V 4.5V, and able to provide 2.2A during the TX bursts
(Refer to the module specification for more details). To start the module, a low level pulse must be sent on POK_IN during 1 s minimum (at 25C). After a few seconds, the module puts in active state CTS when it is ready to receive AT commands. 3.12 MODULE RESET To reset the module, a low level pulse must be sent on RESET pad during 10 ms. 3.13 MODULE SWITCH OFF AT command AT*PSCPOF allows to switch off the module. 3.14 SLEEP MODE MANAGEMENT AT command AT+KSLEEP allows to configure the sleep mode.

MANDATORY POINTS FOR THE FINAL TESTS AND TUNING The design of the customers board (on which the module is soldered) must provide an access to following signals when the final product will be completely integrated.
To upgrade the module software, Sagem Communications recommends providing a direct access to the module serial link through an external connector or any mechanism allowing the upgrade of the module without opening the whole product. Serial link:
TXD RXD Output UART transmit Input UART receive
To debug the module software, Sagem Communications recommends providing a direct access to the module debug port SPI (5 I/Os) through internal test points (TP) located on the customer's main board. ESD & EMC RECOMMENDATIONS 5. 5.1 HILONC ALONE The HiloNC module alone can hold 2KV on each of the 51 pads including the RF pad. 5.2 CUSTOMERS PRODUCT WITH HILONC If customers design must stand more than 2kV on electrostatic discharge, following recommendation must be taken into account. 5.2.1 Analysis ESD current can penetrate inside the device via the typical following components:
SIM connector Microphone Speaker Battery / data connector All pieces with conductive paint (plastron, special keys, etc...)
In order to avoid ESD issues, efforts shall be done to decrease the level of ESD current on electronic components located inside the device (customers board, input of the HiloNC module, etc) 5.2.2 Recommendations to avoid ESD issues
Insure good ground connections of the HiloNC module to the customers board.
Flex (if any) shall be shielded and FPC connectors shall be correctly grounded at each extremity.
Put capacitor 100nF on battery (not on charger), or better put varistor or ESD diode in parallel on battery and charger wires and on all wires on bottom connector.
Uncouple microphone and speaker by putting capacitor or varistor in parallel of each wire of these devices.

- Antenna contact 50 line matching (between module and customers board, and with RF test point) page 25/35 Figure 20: Antenna connection
Keep matching circuit on customers board but with direct connection in the first step it could be necessary to make some adjustment later, during RF qualification stage.
The selected antenna must comply with FCC RF exposure limits in GSM850 and PCS1900 band :
- GSM850 : MPE < 0.55mW/cm2 (Distance is 20 cm)
- PCS1900 : ERP < 3W 6.2 GROUND LINK AREA Sagem Communications emphasizes the fact that a good ground contact is needed between the module and the customers board to have the best radio performances (spurious, sensitivity).
All HiloNC GND pads must be connected to the GND of the customers board. 6.3 LAYOUT Warning : Isolate RF line and antenna from others bus or signals
No signals on 50 ohms area and if that is not possible, add ground shielding using different layers.
Do not add any ground layer under the antenna contact area.
Be careful on the position of the network LED (sometimes situated in front of the antenna pad ...)
Do not put any via and lines on all the forbidden area under the module, shown as the grey area on the figure below.
Varnish must be present on all the grey area (expect solder pads) to isolate HiloNC module from the customers board.

Avoid any metallic part around the antenna area
Keep jacks, FPCs and battery contact far from antenna area (FLEX)
FPC has to be a shielded one 6.5 OTHER RECOMMENDATIONS TESTS FOR PRODUCTION/DESIGN Sagem Communications guarantees the RF performances in conductive mode but strongly recommends making RF measurements in an anechoic chamber in radiated mode (tests conditions for FTA): the radiated performances strongly depend on radio integration (layout, antenna, matching circuit, ground area..) 7. AUDIO INTEGRATION Audio mandatory tests for FTA are in handset mode only so a particular care must be brought to the design of audio (mechanical integration, gasket, electronic) in this mode. The audio norms which describe the audio tests are 3GPP TS 26.131 & 3GPP TS 26.132.
Please note that acoustic competences are mandatory to get accurate audio performance on customers product. 7.1 MECHANICAL INTEGRATION AND ACOUSTICS Particular care to Handset Mode: FTA Note dtude / Technical document : URD1 OTL 5665.1 002 / 70 884 Edition 03 Document Sagem Communications Reproduction et divulgation interdites Sagem Communications document. Reproduction and disclosure prohibited page 27/35 To get a better audio output design (speaker part) :
The speaker must be completely sealed on front side.
The front aperture must be compliant with speaker suppliers specifications
The back volume must be completely sealed.
The sealed back volume must be compliant with speaker suppliers specifications
Take care of the design of the speaker gasket (elastomer).
Foresee a stable and large enough area for the gasket of the artificial ear. To get a better audio input design (microphone part) :
Take care of the design of the microphone (elastomer).
All receivers must be completely sealed on front side.
Microphone sensitivity depends on the shape of the device eg. about 40 3 dBV/Pa for clamshell.
Promote the use of pre-amplified microphone. If needed, use a pre-amplification stage. As audio input and ouput are strongly linked :
Place the microphone and the speaker as far as possible from one another. 7.2 ELECTRONICS AND LAYOUT Avoid Distortion & Burst noise
Audio signals must be symmetric (same components on each path).
Differential signals must be routed parallel.
Audio layer must be surrounded by 2 ground layers.
The link from one component to the ground must be as short as possible.
If possible separate the PCB of the microphone and the one of the speaker.
Reduce as much as possible the number of electronics components (loss of quality, more dispersion).
Audio tracks must be larger than 0.5 mm.

RECOMMENDATIONS ON LAYOUT OF CUSTOMERS BOARD 8.1 GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS ON LAYOUT There are many different types of signals in the module which are disturbing each other. Particularly, Audio signals are very sensitive to external signals as VBAT(1).... Therefore it is very important to respect some rules to avoid disruptions or abnormal behaviour. 8.1.1 Ground
A ground plane as complete as possible
Ground of components has to be connected to the ground layer through many vias not regularly distributed.
Top and bottom layer shall have as much as possible of ground planes. 8.1.2 Power supplies
Plan for power supply signals (VBAT, VGPIO), no loop.
Suitable power supply (VBAT, VGPIO) track width, thickness. 8.1.3 Clocks
Clock signals must be shielded between two grounds plans and bordered with ground vias. 8.1.4 Data bus and other signals
Data bus and commands have to be routed on the same plane, none of the lines of the bus shall be parallel to other lines
Lines crossing shall be perpendicular
Suitable other signals track width, thickness.
Data bus must be protected by upper and lower ground plans 8.1.5 Radio
Provide a 50 Ohm microstrip line for antenna connection 8.1.6 Audio (see also 10.2)
Differential signals have to be routed together, parallel (for example HSET_OUT_P/HSET_OUT_N).
Audio signals have to be isolated, by pair, from all the other signals (ground all around each pair).
Cancel any loops between VBAT and GND next to the speaker to avoid the TDMA burst noise in the speaker during a communication.
The single-end audio signal should be adopted the same rules as differential signals.

(1). Warning: Magnetic field generated by VBAT tracks may disturb the speaker, causing audio burst noise. In this case, one shall modify routing of the VBAT tracks to reduce the phenomena. 8.2 EXAMPLE OF LAYOUT FOR CUSTOMERS BOARD The figure Figure 24 shows an example of layer allocation for a 6 layers circuit (for reference only):

Second reflow soldering is not possible if HiloNC module has been already underfilled. 9.9 HAND SOLDERING Hand soldering is possible.
An especial care must be considered to properly position the HiloNC on its copper footprint during hand soldering. Begin with pads diagonally opposite to help in proper positioning. 9.10 REWORK Rework is possible, for repair purpose for example.
An especial care must be considered in order not to overheat the HiloNC. 10. LABEL The HiloNC module is labelled with its own FCC ID(VW3HILONC) on its bottom side. When the module is installed in customers product, the FCC ID label on the module will not be visible. To avoid this case, an exterior label must be stuck on the surface of customers product signally to indicate the FCC ID of the enclosed module. This label can use wording such as the following: Contains Transmitter module FCC ID: VW3HILONC or Contains FCC ID: VW3HILONC.

page 11/36 The HiloNC module features one input audio path and one output audio path. The input path is single-end while the output path is differential. In this following chapter examples of design will be given including protections against EMC and ESD and some notes about the routing rules to follow to avoid the TDMA noise usually present in this sensitive area of design. F Please note that acoustic competences are mandatory to get accurate audio performance on customer s product. 3.2.1 Connecting microphone and speaker The HiloNC module can manage an external microphone (
INTMIC_P) in single-end mode and an external speaker (HSET_OUT_P / HSET_OUT_N) in differential mode. Thus, one speaker and one microphone can be connected to the module. The bias supply to microphone is implemented in the module. F The speaker connected to the module should be 32 ohms.

The weakness can either come from the PCB routing and placement or from the chosen components (or both). 3.2.1.1 Notes for microphone F Pay attention to the microphone device, it must not be sensitive to RF disturbances. F Some microphones include two spatial microphones inside the same shell and allow to make an electrical difference between the environment noise (received by one of the two mic.) and the active signal
(received by the other mic. + noise) resulting in a very high SNR. F If you need to have deported microphone out of the board with long wires, you should pay attention to the EMC and ESD effect. It is also the case when your design is ESD sensitive. In those cases, add the following protections to improve your design. F To ensure proper operation of such sensitive signals, they have to be isolated from the others by analogue ground on customers board layout.

flow control of V24 interface (see chapter 3.6.2) enter/exit sleep mode of HiloNC module if AT+KSLEEP=0 has been configured (see chapter 3.14) switch between command/data modes F Depending of the HiloNC/Host V24 connexion, the DTR can be usable by customer or not (if always connected to DSR) and then has impact on sleep mode management and AT command/data modes management. 3.7 SPI HiloNC module manages a host SPI interface. This SPI interface is dedicated for trace. F Sagem Communications strongly recommends leaving this interface externally accessible for trace (e.g. access by test point pads).

Reproduction and disclosure prohibited 3.8 GPIO page 20/36 There are five GPIOs available on HiloNC. The GPIO1, GPIO2 and GPIO3 have internal pull-up resistors while GPIO4 and GPIO5 are open collector. F If GPIO4 and GPIO5 are used as output, they must be pulled up to VGPIO. The typical value of the pull-
up resisters is 100K ohms. 3.9 BACKUP BATTERY 3.9.1 Backup battery function feature 3.9.1.1 With backup battery A backup battery can be connected to the module in order to supply internal RTC (Real Time Clock) when the main power supply is removed. Thus, when the main power supply is removed, the RTC is still supplied and the module keeps the time running. With external backup battery:
If VBAT < 3V, internal RTC is supplied by VBACKUP. If VBAT > =3V, internal RTC is supplied by VBAT.
3.9.1.2 Without backup battery Without backup battery If VBAT > 1.5V, internal RTC is supplied by VBAT. If VBAT < 1.5V, internal RTC is not supplied. FVBACKUP input of the module has to be connected to a 10F capacitor (between VBACKUP and GND). FSAGEM does not recommend to connect VBACKUP signal to VBAT. However, if VBACKUP has been connected to VBAT, this has no influence if VBAT is between 3.2V and 4.2V. For VBAT above 4.2V the module can take a longer time to start at low temperature. 3.9.2 Current consumption on the backup battery When the power supply is removed, the internal RTC will be supplied by backup battery. F To calculate the backup battery capacity, consider that Current consumption for RTC on the backup battery is below 2,6A depending on the temperature. Pin Name VBACKUP Min Max 2.6A 3.9.3 Charge by internal HiloNC charging function The charging function is available on the HiloNC without any additional external power supply (the charging power supply is provided by the HiloNC). F Charge of the back-up battery occurs only when main power supply VBAT is provided.

Figure 18: Charging curve of backup battery 3.9.4 Backup Battery technology recommended 3.9.4.1 Manganese Silicon Lithium-Ion rechargeable Battery Sagem Communications does not recommend using this kind of technology because of the following drawbacks:
The maximum discharge current is limited (Shall be compliant with the module characteristics). The over-discharge problem: most of the Lithium Ion rechargeable batteries are not able to recover their charge when their voltage reaches a low-level voltage. To avoid this, it is necessary to add a safety component to disconnect the backup .battery in case of overdischarge condition. In such a case, this implementation is too complicated (too much components for that function). The charging current has to be regulated. F Sagem Communications does not recommend using this kind of backup battery technology. 3.9.4.2 Capacitor battery These kinds of backup battery have not the drawbacks of the Lithium Ion rechargeable battery. As there are only capacitors:
Note dtude / Technical document : URD1 OTL 5665.1 002 / 70 884 Edition 03 Document Sagem Communications Reproduction et divulgation interdites Sagem Communications document. Reproduction and disclosure prohibited page 22/36 The maximum discharge current is generally bigger, There is no problem of over-discharge: the capacitor is able to recover its full charge even if its voltage has previously fallen to 0V. There is no need to regulate the charging current. Moreover, this kind of battery is available in the same kind of package than the Lithium Ion cell and fully compatible on a mechanical point of view. The only disadvantage is that the capacity of this kind of battery is significantly smaller than Manganese Silicon Lithium Ion battery. But for this kind of use (supply internal RTC when the main battery is removed), the capacity is generally enough. F Sagem Communications strongly recommends using this kind of backup battery technology. 3.10 HARDWARE POWER MANAGEMENT AND MULTIPLEXING INTERFACES In case hardware power management and multiplexing are used, it is necessary to isolate host and HiloNC module in order not to generate current re-injection when HiloNC is switched-off.

After a few seconds, the module puts in active state CTS when it is ready to receive AT commands. 3.12 MODULE RESET To reset the module, a low level pulse must be sent on RESET pad during 10 ms. 3.13 MODULE SWITCH OFF AT command AT*PSCPOF allows to switch off the module.

AUDIO INTEGRATION Audio mandatory tests for FTA are in handset mode only so a particular care must be brought to the design of audio (mechanical integration, gasket, electronic) in this mode. The audio norms which describe the audio tests are 3GPP TS 26.131 & 3GPP TS 26.132. F Please note that acoustic competences are mandatory to get accurate audio performance on customer s product. 7.1 MECHANICAL INTEGRATION AND ACOUSTICS Particular care to Handset Mode: FTA Note dtude / Technical document : URD1 OTL 5665.1 002 / 70 884 Edition 03 Document Sagem Communications Reproduction et divulgation interdites Sagem Communications document. Reproduction and disclosure prohibited page 27/36 To get a better audio output design (speaker part) :
F The speaker must be completely sealed on front side. F The front aperture must be compliant with speaker suppliers specifications F The back volume must be completely sealed. F The sealed back volume must be compliant with speaker suppliers specifications F Take care of the design of the speaker gasket (elastomer). F Foresee a stable and large enough area for the gasket of the artificial ear. To get a better audio input design (microphone part) :
F Take care of the design of the microphone (elastomer). F All receivers must be completely sealed on front side. F Microphone sensitivity depends on the shape of the device eg. about 40 3 dBV/Pa for clamshell. F Promote the use of pre-amplified microphone. If needed, use a pre-amplification stage. As audio input and ouput are strongly linked :
F Place the microphone and the speaker as far as possible from one another. 7.2 ELECTRONICS AND LAYOUT Avoid Distortion & Burst noise F Audio signals must be symmetric (same components on each path). F Differential signals must be routed parallel. F Audio layer must be surrounded by 2 ground layers. F The link from one component to the ground must be as short as possible. F If possible separate the PCB of the microphone and the one of the speaker. F Reduce as much as possible the number of electronics components (loss of quality, more dispersion). F Audio tracks must be larger than 0.5 mm.

RECOMMENDATIONS ON LAYOUT OF CUSTOMERS BOARD page 28/36 8.1 GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS ON LAYOUT There are many different types of signals in the module which are disturbing each other. Particularly, Audio signals are very sensitive to external signals as VBAT (1).... Therefore it is very important to respect some rules to avoid disruptions or abnormal behaviour. 8.1.1 Ground F A ground plane as complete as possible F Ground of components has to be connected to the ground layer through many vias not regularly F Top and bottom layer shall have as much as possible of ground planes. distributed. 8.1.2 Power supplies F Plan for power supply signals (VBAT, VGPIO), no loop. F Suitable power supply (VBAT, VGPIO) track width, thickness. 8.1.3 Clocks F Clock signals must be shielded between two grounds plans and bordered with ground vias. parallel to other lines 8.1.4 Data bus and other signals F Data bus and commands have to be routed on the same plane, none of the lines of the bus shall be F Lines crossing shall be perpendicular F Suitable other signals track width, thickness. F Data bus must be protected by upper and lower ground plans 8.1.5 Radio F Provide a 50 Ohm microstrip line for antenna connection 8.1.6 Audio (see also 10.2) F Differential signals have to be routed together, parallel (for example HSET_OUT_P/HSET_OUT_N). F Audio signals have to be isolated, by pair, from all the other signals (ground all around each pair). F Cancel any loops between VBAT and GND next to the speaker to avoid the TDMA burst noise in the speaker during a communication. Note dtude / Technical document : URD1 OTL 5665.1 002 / 70 884 Edition 03 Document Sagem Communications Reproduction et divulgation interdites Sagem Communications document.
