User Manual CAN ICES-3(B)/ NMB-3(B) 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 radios. Cet appareil et son antenne ne doivent pas être situés ou fonctionner en conjonction avec une autre antenne ou un autre émetteur, exception faites des radios intégrées qui ont été testées. The County Code Selection feature is disabled for products marketed in the US/ Canada.
User Manual Radiation Exposure Statement: This equipment complies with IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment.

User Manual 1. Introduction The M14Q2SG is a Cat. 1 LTE modem which incorporates an application CPU subsystem and a host of peripheral interfaces and functions uniquely designed to address the power/performance/cost requirements of IoT and M2M applications. The chip is based on Qualcomm’s MDM architecture which offers OFDMA-related software based signal processing capabilities that significantly exceed traditional communications ARM cores.

User Manual 2.4. SGMII interface The M14Q2SG includes integrated Ethernet MAC with SGMII interfaces with the following key features: IEEE 802.3 compliance Full duplex at 1 Gbps Half/full duplex for 10/100 Mbps Supports VLAN tagging Supports IEEE 1588, Precision Time Protocol (PTP) Can be used to connect to external Ethernet PHYs such as AR8033 or to an external switch The following figures describe an example of the additional logic connection between the M14Q2SG and the Ethernet chip.
User Manual Signals lengths on the M14Q2SG are tuned as below: Function SGMII Net Length (mil) SGMII_TX_P 617.11 SGMII_TX_M 642.13 SGMII_RX_P_C+SGMII_RX_P 661.40 SGMII_RX_M_C+SGMII_RX_M 675.06 2.5. HSIC interface The M14Q2SG includes a HSIC interface. This host interface can be connected to other application processor or interface-transfer chipset. Figure 4.
User Manual 2.6. SIM interface The M14Q2SG includes a SIM controller, interface pins, and a dedicated LDO (3.0 V or 1.8 V). The following figures describe the additional logic connection between the M14Q2SG and the SIM card. Figure 5. SIM card circuit (example) 2.7.
User Manual sleep when not needed by toggling it low. “WAKEUP_IN” (Host: Output, Modem: Input): LOW: SoC does not require the MODEM (allowing it to sleep). HIGH: SoC requires the MODEM or acknowledges it is ready following a wakeup request from the MODEM. “WAKEUP_OUT” (Host: Input, Modem: Output): LOW: The MODEM does not require the Host (allowing it to sleep) HIGH: The MODEM requires the Host or acknowledges it is ready following a wakeup request from the SoC. 2.8.

User Manual 2.8.5. I2C Interface Adding pull-high resistors to 1.8 V through the 2.2 kΩ resistors is recommended. Figure 9. I2C connection (example) 2.8.6. UART Interface There are two UART interfaces: One is a 4 bit UART for high-speed data transfer, and the other is a 2 bit UART for diagnostic tools and debugging. Figure 10.
User Manual 2.8.7. ADC Interface An Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) input is provided by the M14Q2SG. The converter is a 16 bit resolution, ranging from 0.1 V to 1.7 V, with a sampling rate of 2.4 MHz.
User Manual 3. RF Specifications 3.1. RF connections The M14Q2SG has three RF pads; developers may connect them via 50 Ω traces to the main board. ANT0_TRX pad (Pin15) – Primary RX/TX path ANT1_DRX pad (Pin21) – Diversity path ANT_GNSS pad (Pin9) – GNSS path 3.2. RF Layout guidance It is recommended that grounds not be present under the surface of the RF pads in the layout. Details are included below.
User Manual The characteristic impedance depends on the dielectric of PCB, the track width and the ground plane spacing. Microstrip type is required. The detail simulation as below. The RF trace of the test board which was used in the FCC test is defined as below.
User Manual 3.3. Antenna Guidance The antenna should be 50ohm characteristic impedance with the return loss of better than -10dB at the operation band. The antenna gain would affect the radiated power and regulator test result. 3.4. Interference and sensitivity This section includes tips to assist developers in identifying the interference that may affect the M14Q2SG when is it used in systems.
User Manual – Antenna location is important; we recommend directing the antenna away from high-speed switching signals. Furthermore, the trace from the module to the antenna should be as short as possible and must be shielded by complete grounding. – The M14Q2SG is well shielded; the high-speed elements on a system should have shielding reserved during the early stages of development. 3.5. Radiated sensitivity measurement Over-the-air testing can demonstrate the TRX ability of the whole system.
