  • Page 13 PCB Module Design ▪ We recommend you adopt modules by MediaTek as the first priority. As the design trend turns to developing light, thin and higher battery capacity on smart phones, the complexity on system design becomes a great challenge nowadays. It is a time and cost consuming process to meet the layout constraints and at the same time deliver a good signal and power integrity.
