6.2.1.3. Battery Source Power Supply – Design Guidelines
• The desired nominal output for the power supply is 3.8V, and the maximum allowed
voltage is 4.2V. Hence, a single 3.7V Li-Ion cell battery type is suitable for supplying the
power to the LE910Cx module.
NOTE:
Do not use any Ni-Cd, Ni-MH, and Pb battery types directly connected to the LE910Cx module.
Their use can lead to overvoltage on the LE910Cx and damage it. Use only Li-Ion battery types.
• A bypass low ESR capacitor of adequate capacity must be provided to cut the current
absorption peaks; a 100μF tantalum capacitor is usually suitable (on both VBATT and
VBATT_PA together).
• Make sure that the low ESR capacitor (usually a tantalum one) is rated at least 10V.
• A protection diode must be inserted close to the power input to protect the LE910Cx
module from power polarity inversion. Otherwise, the battery connector must be done in
a way to avoid polarity inversions when connecting the battery.
• The battery capacity must be at least 900 mAh to withstand the current peaks of 2A.
