Figure 17 and the components listed in Table 10 show an example of a high reliability power supply circuit for SARA-
R404M, SARA-R410M and SARA-N410 modules, which do not support the 2G radio access technology. In this example,
the module VCC is supplied by a step-down switching regulator capable of delivering the maximum peak / pulse current
specified for the LTE use-case, with low output ripple and with fixed switching frequency in PWM mode operation greater
than 1 MHz.
