PAGE 45
Smart LTE Module Series SC600Y&SC600T Hardware Design To decrease voltage drop, a bypass capacitor of about 100µF with low ESR (ESR=0.7Ω) should be used, and a multi-layer ceramic chip capacitor (MLCC) array should also be reserved due to its ultra-low ESR. It is recommended to use three ceramic capacitors (100nF, 33pF, 10pF) for composing the MLCC array, and place these capacitors close to VBAT/VDD_RF/VPH_PWR pins. The width of VBAT trace should be no less than 3mm.

Smart LTE Module Series SC600Y&SC600T Hardware Design 9.2. Manufacturing and Soldering Push the squeegee to apply the solder paste on the surface of stencil, thus making the paste fill the stencil openings and then penetrate to the PCB. The force on the squeegee should be adjusted properly so as to produce a clean stencil surface on a single pass. To ensure the module soldering quality, the thickness of stencil for the module is recommended to be 0.18mm~0.20mm.
