Figure 21 and the components listed in Table 11 show an example of a high reliability power supply
circuit for SARA-R410M 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.
