3.3.2 VBAT Interface
When the MC509 module works normally, power is supplied through the VBAT pins
and the voltage ranges from 3.3V to 4.2V (typical value: 3.8V). The 145-pin LGA
provides two VBAT pins and sixteen GND pins for external power input. To ensure
that the MC509 module works normally, all the pins must be used efficiently.
When the MC509 module is used for different external applications, pay special
attention to the design for the power supply. When the MC509 module transmits
signals at the maximum power, the transient current may reach the transient peak
value of about 1.5A due to the differences in actual network environments. In this
case, the VBAT voltage drops. Make sure that the voltage does not decrease below
3.3V in any case. Otherwise, exceptions such as restart of the MC509 module may
occur.
A low-dropout (LDO) regulator or switch power with current output of more than 1.5A
is recommended for external power supply. Furthermore, a 220uF or above energy
storage capacitor is connected in parallel at the power interface of the MC509
module.
