L850 module uses PCIe interface, according to the PCIe specification, the PCIe Vmain should be used as
the +3.3V power source, not the Vaux. The Vaux is the PCIe backup power source and it is not sufficient
as the power supply. In addition, the DC/DC power supply other than PCIe ports should not be used as
the external power cannot control the module status through the PCIe protocol.
3.2.1 Power Supply
The L850 module should be powered through the +3.3V pins, and the power supply design is shown in
Figure 3-2:

Description
220uF x 2
Voltage-stabilizing
capacitors
Reduce power fluctuations of the module in
operation, requiring capacitors with low ESR.
LDO or DC/DC power supply requires the
capacitor of no less than 440uF
The capacitor for battery power supply can be
reduced to 100~200uF
1uF,100nF
Digital signal noise
Filter out the interference generated from the clock
and digital signals
