1.1. Safety Information
The following safety precautions must be observed during all phases of the operation, such as usage,
service or repair of any cellular terminal or mobile incorporating UC20 module. Manufacturers of the cellular
terminal should send the following safety information to users and operating personnel and to incorporate
these guidelines into all manuals supplied with the product. If not so, Quectel does not take on any liability
for customer failure to comply with these precautions.
Full attention must be given to driving at all times in order to reduce the risk of an
accident. Using a mobile while driving (even with a handsfree kit) cause distraction
and can lead to an accident. You must comply with laws and regulations restricting
the use of wireless devices while driving.
Switch off the cellular terminal or mobile before boarding an aircraft. Make sure it
switched off. The operation of wireless appliances in an aircraft is forbidden to
prevent interference with communication systems. Consult the airline staff about
the use of wireless devices on boarding the aircraft, if your device offers a Airplane
Mode which must be enabled prior to boarding an aircraft.
Switch off your wireless device when in hospitals or clinics or other health care
facilities. These requests are desinged to prevent possible interference with
sentitive medical equipment.
Cellular terminals or mobiles operate over radio frequency signal and cellular
network and cannot be guaranteed to connect in all conditions, for example no
mobile fee or an invalid SIM card. While you are in this condition and need
emergent help, please remember using emergency call. In order to make or
receive call, the cellular terminal or mobile must be switched on and in a service
area with adequate cellular signal strength.
Your cellular terminal or mobile contains a transmitter and receiver. When it is ON ,
it receives and transmits radio frequency energy. RF interference can occur if it is
used close to TV set, radio, computer or other electric equipment.
In locations with potencially explosive atmospheres, obey all posted signs to turn
off wireless devices such as your phone or other cellular terminals. Areas with
potencially exposive atmospheres including fuelling areas, below decks on boats,
fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas where the air contains
chemicals or particles such as grain, dust or metal powders.

Figure 6: Voltage Drop during Transmitting Burst
To decrease voltage drop, a bypass capacitor of about 100µF with low ESR should be used. Multi-layer
ceramic chip (MLCC) capacitor can provide the best combination of low ESR. The main power supply
from an external application has to be a single voltage source and expanded to two sub paths with star
structure. The width of VBAT_BB trace should be no less than 1mm, and the width of VBAT_RF trace
should be no less than 2mm, and the principle of the VBAT trace is the longer, the wider.
Three ceramic capacitors (100nF, 33pF, 10pF) are recommended to be applied to the VBAT pins. The
capacitors should be placed close to the UC20’s VBAT pins. In addition, in order to get a stable power
source, it is suggested to use a zener diode of which reverse zener voltage is 5.1V and dissipation power
is more than 0.5W. The following figure shows star structure of the power supply.

During power-down procedure, module will send out URC “NORMAL POWER DOWN” via URC port first,
then log off network and save important data. After logging off, module sends out “POWERED DOWN”
and shut down the internal power supply. The power on VBAT pins is not allowed to turn off before the
URC “POWERED DOWN” is output to avoid data loss. If logging off is not done within 60s, module will
shut down internal power supply forcibly.
After that moment, the module enters the power down mode, no other AT commands can be executed
and only the RTC is still active.

Figure 23: Reference Circuit of the 6 Pin USIM Card
In order to enhance the reliability and availability of the USIM card in your application, please follow the
following criterion in the USIM circuit design:
Keep layout of USIM card as close as possible to the module. Assure the length of the trace is less
than 200mm.
Keep USIM card signal away from RF and VBAT alignment.
Assure the ground between module and USIM connector short and wide. Keep the width of ground
and USIM_VDD no less than 0.5mm to maintain the same electric potential. The decouple capacitor
of USIM_VDD should be less than 1uF and must be near to USIM connector.
To avoid cross-talk between USIM_DATA and USIM_CLK, keep them away with each other and
shield them with surrounded ground.
In order to offer good ESD protection, it is recommended to add TVS. The 22Ω resistors should be
added in series between the module and the USIM card so as to suppress the EMI spurious
transmission and enhance the ESD protection. The 33pF capacitors are used for filtering interference
of EGSM900. Please note that the USIM peripheral circuit should be close to the USIM connector.
The pull-up resistor on USIM_DATA line can improve anti-jamming capability when long layout trace
and sensitive occasion is applied, and should be placed close to the USIM connector.

UC20_Hardware_Design Confidential / Released 44 / 82
It is important to route the USB signal traces as differential pairs with total grounding. The impedance
of USB differential trace is 90ohm.
Do not route signal traces under crystals, oscillators, magnetic devices and RF signal traces. It is
important to route the USB differential traces in inner-layer with ground shielding not only upper and
lower layer but also right and left side.
Pay attention to the influence of junction capacitance of ESD component on USB data lines. Typically,
the capacitance value should be less than 2pF.
Keep the ESD components as closer to the USB connector as possible.
UC20 module can only be used as a slave device.
The USB interface is recommended to be reserved for firmware upgrade in your design. The following
figure shows the recommended test points.

In primary mode, the data is sampled on the falling edge of the PCM_CLK and transmitted on the rising
edge; the PCM_SYNC falling edge represents the MSB. In this mode, PCM_CLK supports 128, 256, 512,
1024, 2048 and 4096kHz for different speech codec.
In auxiliary mode, the data is sampled on the falling edge of the PCM_CLK and transmitted on the rising
edge; while the PCM_SYNC rising edge represents the MSB. In this mode, PCM interface operates with a
128kHz PCM_CLK and an 8kHz, 50% duty cycle PCM_SYNC only.
UC20 supports 8-bit A-law and μ-law, and also 16-bit linear data formats. The following figures show the

As to GSM network, the paging period time can be calculated with the following formula.
T= 4.615ms × 51 × DRX
As to WCDMA network, the paging period time can be calculated with the following formula.
T= 10ms × 2DRX
DRX (Discontinuous Reception) is a value from 2 to 9 in GSM network, resulting in paging intervals
470.6ms to 2118.42ms, and a value from 6 to 9 in WCDMA network, resulting in paging intervals from
640ms to 5120ms.
3.17. Behavior of the RI
You can use command AT+QCFG=“risignaltype”, “physical” to configure RI behavior:
No matter which port URC is presented on, URC will trigger the behavior on RI pin.
URC can be output from UART port, USB AT port and USB modem port by command AT+QURCCFG.
The default port is USB AT port.
In additional, RI behavior can be configured flexible. The default behavior of the RI is shown as below.

4 GNSS Receiver
4.1. General Description
UC20 includes a fully integrated global navigation satellite system solution that supports the latest
generation gpsOne Gen8 of Qualcomm (GPS and GLONASS). Compared with GPS only, dual systems
increase usable constellation, reduce coverage gaps and TTFF, and increase positioning accuracy,
especially in rough urban environments.
UC20 works in standalone mode, allows device to demodulate GNSS assistance data, calculate position
without any assistance from the network, suitable for various application needing lowest-cost, accurate
position determination. UC20 supports Qualcomm gpsOneXTRA technology (one kind of A-GNSS), which
will download XTRA file from the internet server to enhance the TTFF. XTRA file contains predicted GPS
and GLONASS satellites coordinates and clock biases valid for up to 7days. It is the best if XTRA file is
downloaded once every 1-2 days. And UC20 also supports SBAS (including WAAS, EGNOS and MSAS),
which will improve fix accuracy.
UC20 provides power-saving solution named DPO (Dynamic Power Optimization), which attempts to turn
off GNSS RF parts, reduces current consumption by 50% at most without impact on TTFF, thus extends
battery life, and maximizes talk and standby time as well.
UC20 supports standard NMEA-0183 protocol, and outputs NMEA sentences with 1Hz via USB interface
by default.
By default, UC20 GNSS engine is switched off, it has to be switched on with AT command. For more
details about GNSS engine technology and configurations, refer to document [7].

4.3. Layout Guideline
The following layout guideline should be taken into account in your design.
Maximize the distance between the GNSS antenna and the main GSM/UMTS antenna.
Noisy digital circuits such as the USIM card, USB interface, Camera module, Display connector and
SD card should be away from the antenna.
Use ground vias around the GNSS trace and sensitive analog signal traces to provide coplanar
isolation and protection.
Keep 50 ohm characteristic impedance of the ANT_GNSS trace.
Refer to Chapter 5 for GNSS reference design and antenna consideration.

8 Storage and Manufacturing
8.1. Storage
UC20 is stored in the vacuum-sealed bag. The restriction of storage condition is shown as below.
Shelf life in sealed bag is 12 months at < 40ºC/90%RH.
After this bag is opened, devices that will be subjected to reflow solder or other high temperature process
must be:
Mounted within 72 hours at factory conditions of ≤ 30ºC/60%RH.
Stored at < 10% RH.
Devices require bake before mounting, if:
Humidity indicator card is > 10% when read 23ºC±5ºC.
Mounted for more than 72 hours at factory conditions of ≤ 30ºC/60% RH.
If baking is required, devices may be baked for 48 hours at 125ºC±5ºC.
As plastic container cannot be subjected to high temperature, module needs to be taken out from
container to high temperature (125ºC) bake. If shorter bake times are desired, please refer to
IPC/JEDECJ-STD-033 for bake procedure.
8.2. Manufacturing and Welding
The squeegee should push the paste on the surface of the stencil that makes the paste fill the stencil
openings and penetrate to the PCB. The force on the squeegee should be adjusted so as to produce a
clean stencil surface on a single pass. To ensure the module soldering quality, the thickness of stencil at
the hole of the module pads should be 0.18mm. For details, please refer to document [6].

It is suggested that peak reflow temperature is 235 ~ 245ºC (for SnAg3.0Cu0.5 alloy). Absolute max
reflow temperature is 260ºC. To avoid damage to the module when it was repeatedly heated, it is
suggested that the module should be mounted after the first panel has been reflowed. The following
picture is the actual diagram which we have operated.

11 Appendix C GPRS Multi-slot Class
Twenty-nine classes of GPRS multi-slot modes are defined for MS in GPRS specification. Multi-slot
classes are product dependant, and determine the maximum achievable data rates in both the uplink and
downlink directions. Written as 3+1 or 2+2, the first number indicates the amount of downlink timeslots,
while the second number indicates the amount of uplink timeslots. The active slots determine the total
number of slots the GPRS device can use simultaneously for both uplink and downlink communications.
The description of different multi-slot classes is shown in the following table.
