3.1.1 Power Signals Recommended Circuitry
Figure 14: Recommended Power Supply
3.1.1.1 VCC_MAIN
This power supply input to the module Baseband and receiver can use the same supply as VCC_AUX.
3.1.1.2 VCC_AUX
GM-41 has no internal capacitance on VCC_AUX to supply the large current peaks during GSM burst transmission.
3.1.1.3 VRTC
If the RTC is used, the VCC_MAIN must be kept active for the RTC to be able to turn the module on. If the RTC is
expected to work for an unspecified time, it is recommended that a regulator is used to supply the VRTC. If the
RTC is to be used in intervals of 48 hours a super cap is sufficient.
3.1.1.4 GND
Tie all five signals-pins to the application main ground. This is the return path for all the module-current.
