PAN9028 Bluetooth/Wi-Fi Module 3.4 3 PAN9028 Module Solder Mask It is recommended to use the following layout for the soldering mask to reduce voids on the thermal pads. Use the dimensions: ✓ The Resist Mask should be 50 µm bigger than the pad size ( 3.3 Footprint). ✓ The Solder Mask should be 50 µm smaller than the pad size ( 3.3 Footprint); they are separated in two semi circles with 300 µm distance and a shifting about 150 µm. Layout 3.
PAN9028 Bluetooth/Wi-Fi Module 3 PAN9028 Module The antenna requires a cutout area of 8 mm × 5 mm under the PAN9028 module. This “Keep out Area” shall be located in every layer under the module antenna. Note for example the “Keep out Area” in all four layers of the PAN9028 evaluation board. It is recommended to verify the perfect position of the module in the target application before fixing the design. Antenna Placement Recommendation All dimensions are in millimeters.
PAN9028 Bluetooth/Wi-Fi Module 4 Power Supply 4 Power Supply 4.1 General Guidances The following conditions must be met: 4.2 ✓ The supply voltage must be free of AC ripple voltage (for example from a battery or a low noise regulator output). For noisy supply voltages, provide a decoupling circuit (for example a ferrite in series connection and a bypass capacitor to ground of at least 47 µF directly at the module). ✓ The supply voltage must not be exceedingly high or reversed.
