This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
IMPORTANT NOTE: In the event that these conditions can not be met (for example certain laptop configurations or co-location with another transmitter), then the FCC authorization is no longer considered valid and the FCC ID can not be used on the final product. In these circumstances, the OEM integrator will be responsible for re-evaluating evaluating the end product (including the transmitter) transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC authorization.
This device and its antenna(s) must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter, except tested built-in built radios. Cet appareil et son antenne ne doivent pas être situés ou fonctionner en conjonction avec une autre antenne ou un autre émetteur, exception exception faites des radios intégrées qui ont été testées.

3.3 Control Signal The L850 module provides two control signals for power on/off and reset operations, the pin defined as shown in the following table: Pin Pin Name I/O 6 FUL_CARD_POWER_ OFF# Reset Value Functions Type Power on/off signal,internalpull signal,internalpull-up I PU 3.3/1.8V High or floating: Power on Low : Power off 67 RESET# I Reset signal, internal 10KΩ 1.8V pull-up,active low 3.3.1 Module Start-Up 3.3.1.1 Start-upCircuit The FUL_CARD_POWER_OFF# pin needs an external 3.
Figure 3-5 Timing Control for Start-up Note: The VSD2_1V8 signal is the internal PMU 1.8V output voltage which is not connected to the M.2 interface. The above timing of VSD2_1V8 is only for reference. The RESET# is required to pull high with a ton1 delay after the +3.3V, because it takes some time tocharge thecapacitors for +3.3V power supply. If the +3.3V power supply is already stable before starting upthe module, the delay time can be ignored. 3.3.
Figure 3-6 3 Software Shutdown Timing Control After the software shutdown, the FUL_CARD_POWER_OFF # pin will remain high which prevents the module from restarting again. Toenable the next restart, the FUL_CARD_POWER_OFF#pin should be pulled low after shutting down. Note: The VSD2_1V8 signal is the internal PMU 1.8V output voltage which is not connected to the M.2 interface. The above timing of VSD2_1V8 is only for reference. 3.3.
Figure 3-10 Reset Timing Control Note: RESET# is a sensitive signal, it’s recommended to add a filter capacitor close to the module. In case of PCB layout, the RESET# signal lines should keep away from the RF interference and protected by GND. Also, the RESET# signal lines shall neither near the PCB edge nor route on the surface planes to avoid module from reset caused by ESD problems. 3.4 USB Interface The L850 module supports USB2.
3.5 PCIe Interface L850 module supports PCIe 1.0 interface and one data transmission channel. After L850 module is inserted into PC, PCIe interface can, work with the drive program, map an MBIM port and a GNSS port in Win10 system. While MBIM interface is used for initiating data service in Win10 system and GNSS interface for receiving GNSS data. 3.5.
Figure 3-9 3 Reference Circuit for PCIe Interface L850 module supports one PCIe 1.0 interface, including three difference pairs: transmit pair TXP/N, receiving pair RXP/N and clock pair CLKP/N. PCIe can achieve the maximum transmission rate of 2.
Figure 3-10 Requirement of PCIe Line The The difference in length of two data lines in difference pair should be within 5mil, and the length match is required for all parts. When the length match is conducted for the differential lines, the designed position of correct match should be close to that of incorrect match, as shown in Figure 3-11. 11.

SIM Card Slot The principlesof theN.O.SIM card slot are described as follows: When When the SIM card is detached, it connects connects an open circuit between CD and SW pins, and drives the SIM_DETECT pin low. When the SIM card is inserted, it connects the short circuit between CD and SW pins, and drives the SIM_DETECT pin high. 3.6.

Note: By default, SIM_DETECT is active-high, active high, which can be switched to active active-low by the AT command. Please refer to the AT CommandsManual for the AT command. 3.6.
3.7.1 LED#1Signal The LED#1 signal is used to indicate the operating status of the module, and the detailed description as shown in the following table: Module Status LED1# Signal RF function ON Low level (LED On) RF function OFF High level (LED Off) The LED driving circuit is as follows: Figure 3-14 LEDDriving Circuit Note: The resistance of LED current-limiting current limiting resistor is selected according to the driving voltage and the driving current. 3.7.
3.7.3 TX_BLANKING When the module operates in LTE TDD Band 39, TX_BLANKING outputs the pulse signal synchronous with TDD burst TX timing. As TDD TX may interfere the receiving of GPS signal, AP will disable GPS or stop GPS data receiving when detecting TX_BLANKING pulse signal, so as to avoid abnormal operation of GPS.
Note： The function of W_DISABLE1# can be customized, please refer to the software porting guide. 3.8.2 BODYSAR The L850 module supportsBody SARfunction by detecting the DPR pin. The voltage level of DPR is high by default, and when the SAR sensor detects the closing human body, the DPR signal will be pulled down. As the result, the module then lowers down its emission power to its default threshold value, thus reducing theRF radiation onthe human body.
