3.8 Power Supply
The power supply of the Java Terminals has to be a single voltage source of V

=8V…30V
capable of providing a peak current (pulsed 2x577ms at T=4.615ms) of about 1.2A at 8V during
an active transmission. The uplink burst causes strong ripple (drop) on the power lines. The
drop voltage should not exceed 1V, but the absolute minimum voltage during drops must be
>7.6V.
The Java Terminals are protected from supply voltage reversal. An external fast acting fuse

s is necessary to use the Java Terminals at a
12V or 24V unlimited power supply system.
The power supply must be compliant with the EN60950 guidelines. A switching regulator reg-
ulates the input voltage for the internal supply.
When power fails for >1ms, Java Terminals reset or switch off. The watchdog can be configured
to restart the Java Terminals. When power fails for >15s the RTC will be reset.

Mains adapter: If it fits into the design of your application we recommend the plug-in supply unit
used with the type approved Gemalto M2M reference setup. Ordering information can be found
in Chapter 7. This 12V mains adapter comes with a 6-pole Western plug and provides an inter-
nal connection between IGT_IN pin and PLUS pin for auto ignition (power up).
