2.1.3 Swappable Companion RF/Discrete
Companion RF (CRF) M.2 modules are swappable with discrete connectivity M.2 modules.
The meaning of swappable in this context is that the design of the M.2 socket on the platform can
allow using the same M.2 socket for both CNVi and discrete connectivity without the need to change
the hardware configuration. When designing the platform to support swappable CRF/discrete, a CRF
module can be changed to a discrete module, and vice versa, by simply removing one M.2 card type
from the socket and swapping it with a new card type. Note that M.2 does not support hot-swapping
and therefore the platform power should be turned off before doing this operation. The swappable
concept is also applicable to 1216 soldered-down versions of the CRF, which also allows the same PCB
design to have a single footprint supporting either a 1216-SD JfP CRF or a standard M.2 1216 discrete
(not integrated) module. Obviously, in the soldered-down case, swapping modules will require
disassembling the soldered module from the board.
In order to design the platform to support both discrete and CNVi, and have the swappable feature,
the platform needs to be designed properly. The specific guidelines for this type of design will be
shown in the platform design guidelines section of this document.
