  • Page 15: Current Consumption

    NOTE: continuous receive and transmit mode measures were taken at channel 6. 4.1.1.2 Shut-down mode In order to minimize the current consumption it is possible to completely shut-down the WE865-DUAL. That is achieved by acting on the relevant signal outside the module, which directly acts on the power device enable/Shut-down signals.
  • Page 16: Power Supply Design Guidelines

    The power supply circuitry is a very important part in the full product design and it strongly affects the product overall performances, hence read carefully the requirements and the guidelines that will follow for a proper design. The table below shows the WE865-DUAL operating voltage range: VOLTAGE RANGE Nominal Supply Voltage 3.8V...
  • Page 17: Input Source

    A protection diode should be inserted close to the power input, in order to save the WE865-DUAL from power polarity inversion. This can be the same diode as for spike protection.
  • Page 18: Input Source

    This allows the regulator to respond quickly to any current peak absorption. A protection diode should be inserted close to the power input, in order to save the WE865-DUAL from power polarity inversion. This can be the same diode as for spike protection.

    It is possible to connect together the two power inputs since they have compatible ranges, but if it is desired the two power supplies can be kept separate. If keeping separated VBATT and VBATT2 is the chosen solution, the WE865-DUAL 3.8V power balls (VCC_A) should be connected to the same voltage source feeding VBATT2.
