Power Supply
Table 16: Electrical characteristics
Operating Voltage ranges
5.5 V to 32 V DC.
Maximum current
480 mA Average at 5.5V.
2.1 A Peak at 5.5 V. (TBC)
Note
:
The FASTRACK Supreme is permanently powered once the power supply is connected. The following table
describes the consequences of over-voltage and under-voltage with the FASTRACK Supreme.
Warning:
All the input voltages specification described in this Section are at the FASTRACK Supreme input.
While powering the FASTRACK Supreme, take into account the input drop caused by the power
cable. With the delivered cable, this input drop is around 700 mV at 5.5 V and 220 mV at 32V.
Table 17: Effects of power supply defect
If the voltage
then
falls below 5.5 V,
the GSM communication is not guaranteed.
is over 32 V
(Transient peaks),
the FASTRACK Supreme guarantees its own protection.
Is over 32 V
(continuous overvoltage)
the protection of the FASTRACK Supreme is done by the
fuse (the supply voltage is disconnected).
The fuse is a 800 mA / 250 V FAST-ACTING 5*20mm. See Section 10 for recommended references.
The following table provides information on power consumption of the FASTRACK Supreme, assuming an
operating temperature of +25 °C and using a 3 V SIM card.
