Pin Names and Descriptions

Pin

Name

Description

1

GND

Pin connected to module ground.

2

RFIN_L

RF input to the GSM850/EGSM900 bands. This is a 50 Ω input.

3

RFIN_H

RF input to the DCS1800/PCS1900 bands. This is a 50

Ω input.

4

GND

Pin connected to module ground.

5

SCLK

Serial interface clock input signal, an R/C filter of 100ohm/20pF is required for better noise performance.

6

SDATA

Serial interface data I/O signal.

7

VIO

Supply voltage for the MIPI RFFE serial interface.

8

VRAMP

Power control signal from DAC. A simple RC filter is integrated and may not require additional filtering

depending on the baseband selected.

9

VCC

Main DC power supply for the power amplifier circuitry in the module. Traces running to this pin will have

high current pulses during transmit operation. Proper decoupling and routing to handle this condition should

be observed.

10

VBATT

Supply voltage for bias circuitry.

11,12,13,14,15,16

GND

Pin connected to module ground.

17

CPL_O

Coupler output port.

18

GND

Pin connected to module ground.

19

NC

Pin not connected.

20,21

GND

Pin connected to module ground.

22

ANT

Bidirectional RF port. This is the common port of the antenna switch. An inductor makes this port appear as

a DC short to ground.

23

GND

Pin connected to module ground.

24

TRX14

External circuitry must maintain zero volts on this port.

25

TRX13

External circuitry must maintain zero volts on this port.

26

TRX12
