3.1 Power Supply
Pin 34 and pin 35 are VBAT powerinput.
On VBAT pads, when module works on CAT-M1 or NB-IoT mode, the ripple current is up to 0.5A
typically. For steadyvoltage, the power supplycapabilitymust be up to 0.5A.

3.1.1 Power Supply Design Guide
In the user's design, special attention must be paid to the design of the power supply to ensure that
the drop of VBAT is not less than 2.5V even when the module's current consumption reaches the
instantaneous maximum. If the voltage drop is less than 2.5V, the module may shut down due to the
low voltage.
The following figure shows the recommended circuit.

In addition, for ESD protection, it is suggested to add a TVS diode near the VBAT PINs. These
capacitors should be put as close as possible to VBAT pads. Also,users should keep VBAT trace on
circuit board wider than 1 mm to minimize PCB trace impedance.
