Mounting
The MSD45N connects to the host via a 60-pin connector. In addition, there are three mounting
holes used to secure the device to the host using 2 mm mounting screws.
Laird recommends a 1.5 mm metal spacer (bushing) with a conductive mounting screw to
connect the exposed ground pads of the radio circuit board to the host ground plane. A 1.5
mm conductive metal spacer with a maximum OD of 4 mm maximizes grounding of the radio
and helps to reduce emissions from the radio circuit board. The spacer may also prevent the
MSD board from slanting and breaking the connection to the host device when the board is
attached to the host.
