3.3.1 Power Pins and Grounding

The NM1 module can be powered by a battery or external power supply.

The GND signal pins indicate the power ground and signal ground of the NM1 module and need to be

connected to the ground of the PCB. Improper connections of the GND signal pins may have adverse impact on

the NM1 module performance.

3.3.2 Power Supply Requirements

The NM1 module's power design is important to its performance. The NM1 module can be powered by the

low-dropout regulator (LDO) with low static current and output current (up to 0.5 A) or the Li-MnO2 battery.

The input voltage range is from 2.1 V to 3.63 V. During data transmission, the power cannot be lower than the

minimum working voltage 2.1 V. Otherwise, errors will occur.

To ensure better power supply performance, it is recommended that three 47 µF (0805) ceramic capacitors and

100 nF, 100 pF, and 22 pF (0402) filter capacitors be connected in parallel at the VBAT input end of the module.

In addition, it is recommended that a TVS tube be connected to the VBAT input end to enhance the surge

voltage bearing capability of the module. In principle, a longer VBAT cable leads to a larger trace width. Figure

3- 2 shows the reference circuit.
