Electrical, Reliability and Radio Characteristics
5.1
Absolute Maximum Ratings
The absolute maximum ratings stated in Table 15 are stress ratings under non-operating
conditions. Stresses beyond any of these limits will cause permanent damage to TC65.

Operating Temperatures
Test conditions were specified in accordance with IEC 60068-2 (still air). The values stated
below are in compliance with GSM recommendation TS 51.010-01.

Ambient temperature (according to GSM 11.10)

Battery temperature
Ambient temperature for charging (software controlled fast
charging)
Due to temperature measurement uncertainty, a tolerance on these switching off thresholds
may occur. The possible deviation is in a range of:
•
± 3°C at the overtemperature limit
•
± 5°C at the undertemperature limit
*)
On TC65 the automatic overtemperature shutdown threshold is set to 90°C board
temperature. This prevents permanent damage to components on the board. Consider
the ratio of output power, supply voltage and operating temperature: to achieve T
= 65°C in GPRS Class 8 (GSM900/ GSM850) with 2W RF power the supply voltage
must not be higher than 4.2V.
