Layout recommendations
It is important to have a whole ground plane below Teseo-LIV4F module. Avoid any signals below Teseo-LIV4F.
Do not place the module close to any EMI source, like antenna, RF routing, DC/DC or power conductor, clock
signal or other high-frequency switching signal, etc.
For RF passive components, ST recommends using of 0402 (1 x 0.5 mm) components. Please choose the RF
ground layer to be able to get 50 Ω RF line width as close as possible to components pads.
On 50 Ω RF line it is important to avoid all possible stubs:
•
For parallel components place one pad on the RF line.

•
If a bypass is needed, superimpose the two pads in one.
