3.3.2.3.4.2. Reference Design for Power Supply
Power design for the module is very important, as the performance of the module largely depends on the
power source. The power supply is capable of providing a sufficient current of at least 3 A. If the voltage
drop between the input and output is not too high, it is suggested that an LDO is used to supply power for
the module. If there is a big voltage difference between the input source and the desired output (VCC =
3.7 V Typ.), a buck DC-DC converter is preferred as the power supply.
The following figure shows a reference design for +5 V input power source based on the DC-DC
TPS54319. The typical output of the power supply is about 3.7 V and the maximum load current is 3 A.

Figure 5: Reference Design of Power Supply
To avoid damages to the internal flash, please do not switch off the power supply directly when the
module is working. It is suggested that the power supply can be cut off after the module is powered off by
pulling down the FULL_CARD_POWER_OFF# pin for more than 10 ss.
NOTE
