The SIM7906G-M2 has 5 power pins and 11 ground pins, to ensure the SIM7906G-M2 card works normally, all the pins must be connected. The connector pin is defined to support 500mA current per pin continuously. Table 8: VBAT pins electronic characteristic Symbol Description VBAT Module power voltage.

50 3.3 1.0 80 4.4 2.0 100 V A uA 3.1.1 Power Supply Design Guide Make sure that the voltage on the VBAT pins will never drop below 3.135V, even during a transmit event, when current consumption may rise up to 1.0A. If the voltage drops below 3.135V, the module might be powered off automatically. NOTE Be sure the power supply for VBAT pins can support more than1.0A, using a total of more than 330uF capacitors is recommended, in order to avoid the voltage dropping to lower than 3.135V. Some multi-layer ceramic chip (MLCC) capacitors (0.1/1uF) with low ESR in high frequency band can be used for EMC. These capacitors should be put as close as possible to VBAT pads. Also, users should keep VBAT trace on circuit board wider than 1.0 mm to minimize PCB trace impedance. The following figure shows the recommended circuit. www.simcom.com 22 / 79 SIM7906G-M2_R2_Hardware Design(2x2MIMO)_V1.02 If the VBAT generated by a switch mode power supply, it is suggested to add a bead to suppress the Interference. Recommend part of FB101 is BLM21PG300SN1D or MPZ2012S221A. Figure 7: Power supply application circuit NOTE The test condition: The voltage of power supply for VBAT is 3.3V, Ca is a 100 F tantalum capacitor
(ESR=0.7). PIN3,5,71,73 are the main return current path of module, these pins should be coppered by a ground plane to main ground. All other GND pins also need connect to ground. In addition, in order to guard for over voltage protection, it is suggested to use a TVS diode to protect the M.2 card. TVS diode should be placed near VBAT pins.

It is important to make sure that all the components used in the power supply circuit can resist the current which could be more than 1A. The following figure shows the linear regulator reference circuit with 5V input and 3.3V output. Figure 8: Linear regulator reference circuit If there is a high dropout between input and VBAT, or the efficiency is extremely important, then a switching mode power supply will be preferable. The following figure shows the switching mode power supply reference circuit with 12V input and 3.3V output. Figure 9: Switching mode power supply reference circuit NOTE The Switching Mode power supply solution for VBAT must be chosen carefully against Electro Magnetic Interference and ripple current from depraving RF performance. PWR_CTRL must connect to host in case that the module system crash. www.simcom.com 24 / 79 VinVoutGNDFB3+PWR_CTRLR102R101VBAT20K(1%)10K(1%)+U101MIC293025412C101C102100uF1uFDC INPUTR103470ROn/OffFUSEC103330uFC104100nFFUSEVinVoutFBU10112345LM2596-ADJ+100uHMBR360L101C101+C102D102C103R102R101FB101330uFVBAT20K(1%)10K(1%)100uF1uFC104100nF270 ohm@100Mhz DC INPUTPWR_CTRLGNDOn/Off SIM7906G-M2_R2_Hardware Design(2x2MIMO)_V1.02 3.1.3 Voltage Monitor To monitor the VBAT voltage, the AT command AT+CBC can be used. For monitoring the VBAT voltage outside or within a special range, the AT command AT+CVALARM can be used to enable the Over-voltage warning function. If users need to power off module when the VBAT voltage is out of a range, the AT command AT+CPMVT can be used to enable over-voltage power-off function. NOTE Over-voltage warning function and over-voltage power-off function are disabled by default. For more information about these AT commands, please refer to Document [1]. The module will power on automatically after the under-voltage power off procedure if the Full_Card_Power_Off# signal keeps at high level. 3.2 Full_Card_Power_Off#
Module can be powered on by pulling the Full_Card_Power_Off# pin up to high level through GPIO, which is 3.3V tolerant. Full_Card_Power_Off# signal is an active low input signal and will turn the module on when asserted high
(1.7 V) and will force the module to shut down when asserted low (0.2 V). This pin is 3.3V tolerant and can be driven by either 1.8V or 3.3V GPIO and has been pulled down internal. www.simcom.com 25 / 79 SIM7906G-M2_R2_Hardware Design(2x2MIMO)_V1.02 Figure 10: Reference power on/off circuit NOTE Module could be automatically power on by connecting Full_Card_Power_Off# pin to VBAT via 0R resistor directly. 3.2.1 Power on The power-on scenarios are illustrated in the following figure.

Condition 2: Power off module by removing the VBAT. Condition 3: Power off module by AT command AT+CPOF. Condition 4: Over-voltage or under-voltage automatic power off. Condition 5: Over-temperature or under-temperature automatic power off. NOTE The over-temperature and over-voltage function is disabled by default. If the temperature is outside the range of -30~+70, some warnings will be reported via AT port. If the temperature is outside the range of -40~+85, module will be powered off automatically. (if the function is enabled) The module will power on automatically after the condition 3 ~ 4 power off procedure if the Full_Card_Power_Off# signal keeps at high level. These procedures under condition 1~3 will make the M.2 card disconnect from the network and allow the software to enter a safe state, and save data before the card be powered off completely. The power off scenario by pulling down the Full_Card_Power_Off# pin is illustrated in the following figure. www.simcom.com 27 / 79 SIM7906G-M2_R2_Hardware Design(2x2MIMO)_V1.02 Figure 12: Power off timing sequence Table 11: Power off timing and electronic characteristic Symbol Parameter Time value Min.

uplink/downlink data rates, etc. AT command AT+CFUN=0 can be used to set the module to a minimum functionality mode without removing the power supply. In this mode, the RF part of the module will not work and the USIM card will not be accessible, but the serial port and USB port are still accessible. The power consumption in this mode is lower than normal mode. AT command AT+CFUN=4 or pulling down the W_disable1# pin can be used to set the module to flight mode without removing the power supply. In this mode, the RF part of the module will not work, but the serial port and USB port are still accessible. The power consumption in this mode is lower than normal mode. Module will go into power off mode by pull down the Full_Card_Power_Off# pin, normally. In this mode the power management unit shuts down the power supply, and software is not active. The serial port and USB are is not accessible. www.simcom.com 56 / 79 SIM7906G-M2_R2_Hardware Design(2x2MIMO)_V1.02 5.3.2 Sleep mode In sleep mode, the current consumption of module will be reduced to a very low level, and module can still receive paging message and SMS. Several hardware and software conditions must be satisfied in order to let module enter into sleep mode:
1. UART condition 2. USB condition 3. Software condition NOTE Before designing, pay attention to how to realize sleeping/waking function. 5.3.3 Minimum functionality mode and Flight mode Minimum functionality mode ceases a majority function of module, thus minimizing the power consumption. This mode is set by the AT command which provides a choice of the functionality levels. AT+CFUN=0: Minimum functionality AT+CFUN=1: Full functionality (Default) AT+CFUN=4: Flight mode If module has been set to minimum functionality mode, the RF function and USIM card function will be closed. In this case, the serial port and USB are still accessible, but RF function and USIM card will be unavailable. If module has been set to flight mode, the RF function will be closed. In this case, the serial port and USB are still accessible, but RF function will be unavailable. When module is in minimum functionality or flight mode, it can return to full functionality by the AT command AT+CFUN=1. www.simcom.com 57 / 79 SIM7906G-M2_R2_Hardware Design(2x2MIMO)_V1.02 5.4 RF Output Power/Current Consumption The current consumption is listed in the table below.

The module Stand-off and mounting screw also serve as part of the module Electrical Ground path. The Stand-off should be connected directly to the ground plane on the platform. So that when the module is mounted and the mounting screw is screwed on to hold the module in place, this will make the electrical ground connection from the module to the platform ground plane. Figure 33: Equipment diagram www.simcom.com 63 / 79 SIM7906G-M2_R2_Hardware Design(2x2MIMO)_V1.02 7 Thermal Design Customer should pay attentions to the thermal design of SIM7906G-M2, for the mass data application scenario, the module would work in max power status and last long time, the temperature of module would increase quickly, especially in high temperature environment. Module reserved a ground plane on the bottom side for the heat dissipating, customer could conduct the heat to the large board by the silica gel, and the surface area on large board should be more than 460 mm2. For better thermal performance, customer could use a heat sink device to conduct the heat to the air.

Switch the cellular terminal or mobile off, medical equipment may be sensitive and not operate normally due to RF energy interference. Switch off the cellular terminal or mobile before boarding an aircraft. Make sure it is switched off. The operation of wireless appliances in an aircraft is forbidden to prevent interference with communication systems. Forgetting to think much of these instructions may impact the flight safety, or offend local legal action, or both. Do not operate the cellular terminal or mobile in the presence of flammable gases or fumes. Switch off the cellular terminal when you are near petrol stations, fuel depots, chemical plants or where blasting operations are in progress. Operation of any electrical equipment in potentially explosive atmospheres can constitute a safety hazard. Your cellular terminal or mobile receives and transmits radio frequency energy while switched on. RF interference can occur if it is used close to TV sets, radios, computers or other electric equipment. Road safety comes first! Do not use a hand-held cellular terminal or mobile when driving a vehicle, unless it is securely mounted in a holder for hands free operation. Before making a call with a hand-held terminal or mobile, park the vehicle. GSM cellular terminals or mobiles operate over radio frequency signals and cellular networks and cannot be guaranteed to connect in all conditions, especially with a mobile fee or an invalid SIM card. While you are in this condition and need emergent help, please remember to use emergency calls. In order to make or receive calls, the cellular terminal or mobile must be switched on and in a service area with adequate cellular signal strength. Some networks do not allow for emergency call if certain network services or phone features are in use (e.g. lock functions, fixed dialing etc.). You may have to deactivate those features before you can make an emergency call. Also, some networks require that a valid SIM card be properly inserted in the cellular terminal or mobile.
