Note:
1.
Maximum Power: The continuous current during maximum data rate with the radio transmitter at
maximum power.
2.
TX Pulse: The average peak current during a GSM850 transmission burst period or HSDPA/LTE
connection. The transmission burst duration for GSM850 can vary, depending on what
transmission scheme is being deployed (GPRS Class 8, Class 10, GSM, etc.).
3.
Inrush Charge: The total inrush charge at power on.
