Feature Implementation
Interfaces
Module interface
Surface mount device with solderable connection pads (SMT application
interface).
Land grid array (LGA) technology ensures high solder joint reliability and
provides the possibility to use an optional module mounting socket.
For more information on how to integrate SMT modules see also [4]. This
application note comprises chapters on module mounting and application
layout issues as well as on additional SMT application development
equipment.

Evaluation kit
Evaluation module
PCS3 module soldered onto a dedicated PCB that can be connected to
an adapter in order to be mounted onto the DSB75.
DSB75 DSB75 Development Support Board designed to test and type approve
Cinterion Wireless Modules and provide a sample configuration for appli-
cation engineering. A special adapter is required to connect the PCS3
evaluation module to the DSB75.
