 How to Install the Wireless modem 

7.4.2.1

 

 Power Supply 

Use a high-quality power supply cable with low resistance.  This ensures that the 
voltages at the connector pins are within the allowed range, even during the 
maximum peak current. An electrolytic capacitor should be placed close to the power 
supply pins of the wireless modem to supply the peak currents during burst 
transmission. See 5.5 Regulated Power Supply Input (VCC), page 34. 

7.4.2.2

 

Grounds 

A ground connection is provided at the mounting hole next to the RF connector on 
the wireless modem (see Figure 5.1, page 19).  Connect this ground point to the GND 
pins of the wireless modem by the shortest, low impedance path possible. The 
purpose of this connection is to allow any ESD picked up by the antenna to bypass 
the wireless modem’s internal ground path. 

Note! It is recommended that you use a cable with a maximum resistance of 5 
milliohm for the ground connection. 

Note! AREF and GND are connected at a single point inside the wireless modem.  
They must not be joined together in your application. 

7.4.2.3

 

Audio 

Use a coupling capacitor in AUXI line if the application does not use the wireless 
modem’s bias voltage. See also Figure 5.9-1  Microphone connections to the wireless 
modem, page 50. 

7.4.2.4

 

Software Upgrade 

There are two ways of updating the firmware in the GS64.  There is a  web based tool 
that can access a Sony Ericsson server from where SW can be downloaded. There is 
also an Updater, which is a local application that downloads an image provided by 
SEMC.
