1. Functional Description
Thiamis Embedded platform designed to simplify adding IoT to any customer board. Thiamis X&G is the
2 modules stack that give to customers possibilities to capture data using list of available interfaces and
store that data to the environet cloud service.
1.1. Thiamis X Module.
Thiamis X can work standalone or like a master for Thiamis G module. Thiamis X can communicate with
external equipment using USART, USB, I2C and more interfaces. Using Bluetooth, WIFI, Mesh network
and (if connected Thiamis G module) gsm - Thiamis X can send captured data to the environet cloud
service.
1.2. Thiamis G Module.
Thiamis G adding Cellular and GNNS features to the Thiamis X module. It can work only like a slave with
Thiamis X module.
1.3. Thiamis X&G Development Board.
Thiamis X&G development board provide possibility to evaluate the Thiamis Embedded platform.

4. Powering Details.
Usually
linear regulator
used because of small
difference
A switching power supply
will be preferable because of its
4.1. Power Supply Requirements.
The external power supply must be connected to VSYS pins and must fulfill the following requirements:
Power Supply
Nominal Supply Voltage 3.8V
Nominal Operational Voltage Range 3.4V ~ 4.2V
Extended Operating Voltage Range 3.3V ~ 4.5V
The average consumption depends on features used at each module. Thiamis X if used standalone
consume much less power than if it used in stack with Thiamis G module.
Current Load
Thiamis X <100mA
Thiamis G >500mA
NOTE: In case Thiamis X&G stack used, the electrical design for the Power supply must be made ensuring
that it will be capable of a peak current output of at least 2A.
4.2. Electrical Design Examples.
Electrical design of the power supply mainly depends on the power source used to supply the modules.
There are some examples below:
Power Supply Design Example
+5V input
+12V input
3.7V lithium-ion cell battery ideal to supply power to the modules
between the input source and the desired output
better efficiency especially with the 2A peak current load
represented by Thiamis G module.

Based on reference design of the test board a customer can implement own pcb design for nested
Thiamis X&G modules.
This device complies with Par t 15 of the F CC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may cause undesired op eration.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could
void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply wit h the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment genera tes, uses
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does caus e
harmful interference to radio or television receptio n, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of
the following measures:
-- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
-- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
-- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
-- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
-- when the euipment is normally used, please keep away from it at least 20cm.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Integration is strictly limited to mobile/fixed categorized end-products where a separation distance
of at least 20 cm between the radiating part and any human body can be assured during normal
operating conditions.
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 the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a
separate FCC authorization.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
This module is intended for OEM integrator only and the OEM integrators are instructed to ensure
that the end user has no manual instructions to remove or install the device. The OEM integrator is
still responsible for the FCC compliance requirement of the end product, which integrates this
module.
LABEL OF THE END PRODUCT:
The final end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following “Contains TX FCC ID:
2AN9Q-THIAMISX” .If the size of the end product is smaller than 8x10cm, then additional FCC
part 15.19 statement is required to be available in the users manual: This device complies with Part
15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may
not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
