3.2 Power Supply

3.2.1 Power Supply Description

The power supply is one of the key issues in the design of a GSM terminal. Due to the burst emission mode used in GSM/GPRS, the power supply must be
able to deliver high current peaks in a short time. During the peaks, the ripple
) on the supply voltage must not exceed a certain limit (see Table 1 Power
(U
ripp
supply voltage ).
In communication mode, a GSM/GPRS class 2 terminal emits 577μs radio bursts every 4.615ms (see
VBATTT
Figure 2).
Uripp
t = 577 μs
T = 4,615 ms
Uripp
Figure 2: Power supply during burst emission
In communication mode, a GPRS class 10 terminal emits 1154μs radio bursts every 4.615ms.
Only the VBATT input is necessary to supply the Q2686 Wireless CPU
®
.
VBATT:
Directly supplies the RF components with 3.6 V. It is essential to keep a minimum voltage ripple at this connection in order to avoid any phase error.
The RF Power Amplifier current (1.5 A peak in GSM /GPRS mode) flows with a ratio of:
o 1/8 of the time (around 577μs every 4.615ms for GSM /GPRS cl. 2)
and
o 2/8 of the time (around 1154μs every 4.615ms for GSM /GPRS
cl. 10).
The rising time is around 10μs.
Is internally used to provide, via several regulators, the VCC_2V8 and VCC_1V8 power supply required for the baseband signals.
®
The Q2686 Wireless CPU
shielding case is the grounding. The ground must
be connected to the motherboard through a complete layer on the PCB.

When the Wireless CPU
is supplied with a battery, the total impedance
(battery + protections + PCB) should be < 150 mΩ. As the radio power amplifier is directly connected to VBATT, the Wireless CPU

is sensitive to any Alternative Current on lines. When a DC/DC converter is used, Wavecom recommends setting the converter frequency in such a way that the resulting voltage does not exceed the values in following table.

Q2686 Wireless CPU®

3.11 Analog Audio Interface

Two different microphone inputs and two different speaker outputs are supported. The Q2686 INSIM Wireless CPU® also includes an echo cancellation feature, which allows hands-free function
In some cases, ESD protection must be added on the audio interface lines.

3.11.1 Microphone Features

The connection can be either differential or single-ended but using a differential connection in order to reject common mode noise and TDMA noise is strongly recommended. When using a single-ended connection, be sure to have a very good ground plane, a very good filtering as well as shielding in order to avoid any disturbance on the audio path.
The gain of MIC inputs is internally adjusted and can be tuned using an AT command.
Both can be configured in differential or single ended. The MIC2 inputs already include the biasing for an electret microphone
allowing an easy connection.
3.11.1.1 MIC1 Microphone Inputs
By default, the MIC1 inputs are single-ended but it can be configured in differential.
The MIC1 inputs do not include an internal bias . The MIC1 input needs to have an external biasing if an electret microphone is used.
AC coupling is already embedded in the Wireless Microprocessor®.

3.11.2 Speaker Features

The connection is single-ended on SPK1 and is differential or single-ended on SPK2. Using a differential connection to reject common mode noise and TDMA noise is strongly recommended. Moreover in single-ended mode, the power is divided by 4. When using a single-ended connection, be sure to have a very good ground plane, a very good filtering as well as shielding in order to avoid any disturbance on the audio path.

3.13 Battery Charging Interface

The Q2686 Wireless CPU® supports one battery charging circuit, two algorithms and one hardware charging mode (pre-charging) for 3 battery technologies:
Ni-Cd (Nickel-Cadmium) with algorithm 0
Ni-Mh (Nickel-Métal Hydrure) with algorithm 0
Li-Ion (Lithium-Ion) with the embedded PCM (Protection Circuit
Module).algorithm 1
The two algorithms control a switch, which connects the CHG-IN signal to the VBATT signal. The algorithm controls the frequency and the connected time of the switching. During the charging procedure, battery charging level is monitored and when Li-Ion algorithm is used, battery temperature is monitored via the ADC1/BAT-TEMP input.
®
One more charging procedure is provided by the Q2686 Wireless CPU called “Pre-charging” mode, but is a special charging mode because it is activated only when the Wireless CPU
®
is OFF. Control is in this case only performed by the hardware. The purpose of this charging mode is to avoid battery damage by preventing the battery from being discharged to below the minimum battery level.
. This is

3.13.1 Ni-Cd / Ni-Mh Charging Algorithm

To charge the battery, the algorithm measures battery level when the switch is open (T2) and charges the battery by closing the switch (T3). When the battery is charged (battery voltage has reached BattLevelMax) the switch is open for time T3.

3.13.3 Pre-charging

When a charger DC power supply is connected to the CHG-IN input and if the voltage battery is between 2.8V* and 3.2V, a constant current of 50mA is provided to the battery.
®
When the battery is able to supply the Q2686 Wireless CPU
, it is automatically
powered on and the software algorithm is activated to finish the charge. * For the Lithium-ion battery, the minimum voltage must be higher than PCM
lock level. Note: When pre-charging is launched, the LED0 output blinks automatically.

The duration of the firmware power-up sequence depends on:
the need to perform a recovery sequence if the power has been lost during a flash memory modification.
Other factors have a minor influence
the number of parameters stored in EEPROM by the AT commands received so far
the ageing of the hardware components, especially the flash memory
the temperature conditions
The
recommended
way to de-assert the ON/~OFF signal is to use either an AT command or WIND indicators: the application must detect the end of the power-up initialization and de-assert ON/~OFF afterwards.
Send an “AT” command and wait for the “OK” answer: once the
initialization is complete the AT interface answers « OK » to “AT” message

Proceeding thus – by software detection - will always prevent the application from de-asserting the ON/~OFF signal too early.
If WIND indicators are disabled or AT commands unavailable or not used, it is still possible to de-assert ON/~OFF after a delay long enough (T

ensure that the firmware has already completed its power-up initialization. The table below gives the minimum values of T

The above figure take the worst cases into account: power-loss recovery operations, slow flash memory operations in high temperature conditions, and so on. But, they are safe because they are large enough to ensure that ON/~OFF is not de-asserted too early.
Additional notes:
1 Typical power-up initialization time figures for best cases conditions
(no power-loss recovery, fast and new flash memory…) approximate
3.5 seconds in every firmware version. But releasing ON/~OFF after this delay does not guarantee that the application will actually start-up if for example the power plug has been pulled off during a flash memory operation, like a phone book entry update or an AT&W command…
2 The ON/~OFF signal can be left at a high level until switch OFF. But
this is not recommended as it will prevent the AT+CPOF command from performing a clean power-off. (see also Note in section
3.14.1.2
on Power-OFF for an alternate usage)
3 When using a battery as power source, it is not recommended to let
this signal high:
4 If the battery voltage is too low and the ON/~OFF signal at low level,
an internal mechanism switches OFF the Wireless CPU®. This automatic process prevents the battery to be over discharged and optimize its life span.
5 During the power-ON sequence, an internal reset is automatically
performed by the Wireless CPU® for 40 ms (typical). Any external reset should be avoided during this phase.
6 After a reset (hardware or software), if the ON/~OFF signal is OFF
(Low level) the Wireless CPU® switches OFF.

3.21 Digital Audio Interface (PCM)

Digital audio interface (PCM) interface mode allows connectivity with audio standard peripherals. It can be used, for example, to connect an external audio codec.
The programmability of this mode allows to address a large range of audio peripherals.
PCM features:
IOM-2 compatible device on physical level
Master mode only with 6 slots by frame, user only on slot 0
Bit rate single clock mode at 768kHz only
16 bits data word MSB first only
Linear Law only (no compression law)
Long Frame Synchronization only
Push-pull configuration on PCM-OUT and PCM-IN
The digital audio interface configuration cannot differ from that specified above.

3.21.1 Description

The PCM interface consists of 4 wires:
PCM-SYNC (output): The frame synchronization signal delivers an 8 kHz
frequency pulse that synchronizes the frame data in and the frame data out.
PCM-CLK (output): The frame bit clock signal controls data transfer with
the audio peripheral.
PCM-OUT (output): The frame “data out” relies on the selected
configuration mode.
PCM-IN (input): The frame “data in” relies on the selected configuration
mode.

6 Design Guidelines

The purpose of the following paragraphs is to give design guidelines.

6.1 HARDWARE and RF

6.1.1 EMC Recommendations

The EMC tests must be performed on the application as soon as possible to detect any potential problems.
When designing, special attention should be paid to:
Possible spurious emission radiated by the application to the RF receiver
in the receiver band
ESD protection is mandatory on all signals which have external
accessibility (typically human accessibility). See Q2686 Wireless CPU Customer Design Guidelines WM_PRJ_Q2686_PTS_003
[10] for ESD
protection samples.
o Typically, ESD protection is mandatory for the:
SIM (if accessible from outside) Serial link
EMC protection on audio input/output (filters against 900MHz
emissions)
Biasing of the microphone inputs
Length of the SIM interface lines (preferably <10cm)
Ground plane: Wavecom recommends a common ground plane for
analog/digital/RF grounds.
A metallic case or plastic casing with conductive paint are recommended
Note
:
The Wireless CPU
®
does not include any protection against over-voltage.

Q2686 Wireless CPU®

6.1.2 Power Supply

The power supply is one of the key issues in the design of a GSM terminal. A weak power supply design could, in particular, affect:
EMC performance
The emission spectrum
The phase error and frequency error
WARNING: Careful attention should be paid to:
The quality of the power supply: low ripple, PFM or PSM systems should
be avoided (PWM converter preferred).
Capacity to deliver high current peaks in a short time (pulsed radio
emission).

Q2686 Wireless CPU®

6.1.4 Antenna

WARNING: Wavecom strongly recommends working with an antenna manufacturer either
to develop an antenna adapted to the application or to adapt an existing solution to the application.
Both the mechanical and electrical antenna adaptation is one of the key issues in the design of the GSM terminal.

6.2 Mechanical Integration

Attention should be paid to:
Antenna cable integration (bending, length, position, etc)
Leads of the Wireless CPU
®
to be soldered to the Ground plane

6.3 Operating System Upgrade

The Q2686 Wireless CPU® Operating System is stored in flash memory and can easily be upgraded.
IMPORTANT:
In order to follow regular changes in the GPRS standard and to offer a state-of­the-art Operating System, Wavecom recommends that the application designed around a Wireless CPU® (or Wireless CPU® based product) allow easy Operating System upgrades on the Wireless CPU® via the standard X-modem protocol. Therefore, the application shall either allow a direct access to the Wireless CPU® serial link through an external connector or implement any mechanism allowing the Wireless CPU® Operating System to be downloaded via X-modem.
The Operating System file can be downloaded to the modem using the X­modem protocol. The AT+WDWL command allows the download process to be launched (see the description in the AT Command User Guide
[7]). The serial signals required to proceed with X-modem downloading are: Rx, Tx, RTS, CTS and GND. The Operating System file can also be downloaded to the modem using the
DOTA (download over the air) feature. This feature is available with the Open
®
AT
interface. For more details, please, refer to the Open AT® documentation
listed in section
1.1.1.

Q2686 Wireless CPU®

7.2 Safety Recommendations (for information only)

IMPORTANT
FOR THE EFFICIENT AND SAFE OPERATION OF YOUR GSM APPLICATION
BASED ON Q2686
Wireless CPU
®
PLEASE READ THIS INFORMATION CAREFULLY

7.2.1 RF Safety

7.2.1.1 General
Your GSM terminal is based on the GSM standard for cellular technology. The GSM standard is spread all over the world. It covers Europe, Asia and some parts of America and Africa. This is the most used telecommunication standard.
Your GSM terminal is actually a low power radio transmitter and receiver. It sends out as well as receives radio frequency energy. When you use your GSM application, the cellular system which handles your calls controls both the radio frequency and the power level of your cellular modem.
7.2.1.2 Exposure to RF Energy
There has been some public concern on possible health effects of using GSM terminals. Although research on health effects from RF energy has focused on the current RF technology for many years, scientists have begun research regarding newer radio technologies, such as GSM. After existing research had been reviewed, and after compliance to all applicable safety standards had been tested, it has been concluded that the product was fitted for use.
If you are concerned about exposure to RF energy there are things you can do to minimize exposure. Obviously, limiting the duration of your calls will reduce your exposure to RF energy. In addition, you can reduce RF exposure by operating your cellular terminal efficiently by following the guidelines below.
7.2.1.3 Efficient Terminal Operation
For your GSM terminal to operate at the lowest power level, consistent with satisfactory call quality:
If your terminal has an extendable antenna, extend it fully. Some models allow you to place a call with the antenna retracted. However your GSM terminal operates more efficiently with the antenna when it is fully extended.
Do not hold the antenna when the terminal is "IN USE". Holding the antenna affects call quality and may cause the modem to operate at a higher power level than needed.

Q2686 Wireless CPU®
7.2.1.4 Antenna Care and Replacement
Do not use the GSM terminal with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Replace a damaged antenna immediately. You may repair antenna to yourself by following the instructions provided to you. If so, use only a manufacturer-approved antenna. Otherwise, have your antenna repaired by a qualified technician.
Buy or replace the antenna only from the approved suppliers list. Using of unauthorized antennas, modifications or attachments could damage the terminal and may violate local RF emission regulations or invalidate type approval.

7.2.2 General Safety

7.2.2.1 Driving
Check the laws and the regulations regarding the use of cellular devices in the area where you have to drive as you always have to comply with them. When using your GSM terminal while driving, please:
give full attention to driving,
pull-off from the road and park before making or answering a call if
driving conditions so require.
7.2.2.2 Electronic Devices
Most electronic equipment, for example in hospitals and motor vehicles is shielded from RF energy. However, RF energy may affect some improperly shielded electronic equipment.
7.2.2.3 Vehicle Electronic Equipment
Check your vehicle manufacturer representative to determine if any on-board electronic equipment is adequately shielded from RF energy.
7.2.2.4 Medical Electronic Equipment
Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices (such as pacemakers, hearing aids, etc) to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy.
Turn your terminal OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in the area instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using RF monitoring equipment.

Q2686 Wireless CPU®
7.2.2.5 Aircraft
Turn your terminal OFF before boarding any aircraft.
Use it on the ground only with crew permission.
Do not use it in the air.
To prevent possible interference with aircraft systems, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations require you should have prior permission from a crew member to use your terminal while the aircraft is on the ground. In order to prevent interference with cellular systems, local RF regulations prohibit using your modem while airborne.
7.2.2.6 Children
Do not allow children to play with your GSM terminal. It is not a toy. Children could hurt themselves or others (by poking themselves or others in the eye with the antenna, for example). Children could damage the modem, or make calls that increase your modem bills.
7.2.2.7 Blasting Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your unit OFF when you are in a "blasting area" or in areas posted: "turn off two-way radio". Construction crew often uses remote control RF devices to set off explosives
.
7.2.2.8 Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn your terminal OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. Though it is rare, but your modem or its accessories could generate sparks. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injuries or even death.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include fuelling areas such as petrol stations; below decks on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.
Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid, or explosives, in the compartment of your vehicle which contains your terminal or accessories.
Before using your terminal in a vehicle powered by liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane) ensure that the vehicle complies with the relevant fire and safety regulations of the country in which the vehicle is used.
