a single voltage source and can be expanded to two sub paths with star structure. The width of VBAT_BB
trace should be no less than 0.5mm, and the width of VBAT_RF trace should be no less than 2mm. In
principle, the longer the VBAT trace is, the wider it will be.
In addition, in order to get a stable power source, it is suggested to use a TVS with low leakage current
and suitable reverse stand-off voltage, and also it is recommended to place it as close to the VBAT pins as
possible. The following figure shows the star structure of the power supply.
