The module power supply voltage range is DC 3.0～3.6V, above DC 3.6V, the module will damage. It is recommended work at DC 3.3 V, the PA supply voltage consider the application condition. 2. The module interface use half circle pad to soldering on the system PCB board, the GND must soldering to the system digital GND reliably, or use connector to connect main-board . 3. The antenna must the get to the module’s ANT pin as close as possible. 4. The MCU which don’t have integrated SPI interface can also control the module, use the normal I/O port to work like SPI timing to read and write. The SPI data rate is below 10MHz. 5. The interface can connect directly to the MCU which use 3.3V power supply, there is no need serial resistor. If the I/O is open-drain, the pull-up resistor will be added. When connect …
