Power Supply
The power supply range of SIM5320J-TE is from 3.3V to 4.2V. For the VBAT, the ripple due to
GSM/GPRS emission burst (every 4.615ms
）
may cause voltage drop, and the current consumption rises
typically to peak of more than 2A. So the power supply must be able to provide sufficient current up to
more than 2A. The following figure is the VBAT voltage ripple wave at the maximum power transmit
phase.
The test condition: VBAT =4.0V, VBAT maximum output current =2A, C

(ESR=0.7

) and C
B
=1µF.

Design Guide
Mostly, user connects the VBAT pins with one power supply. Make sure that the input voltage at the
VBAT pin will never drop below 3.3V even during a transmit burst when the current consumption rises up
