consumption design, supporting multi-path mitigation, anti-jamming and high precision GNSS joint positioning. The chip is especially suitable for the application scenarios which are sensitive to power and size.
3. Interfaces
UM680A has interfaces such as UART, I2C, SPI*, PPS, EVENT, RTK_STAT and RESET_N.
There are two UARTs. UART1 is the master serial port, supporting data transmission and firmware upgrade, and the I/O signal type is LVTTL. The baud rate can be configured by users. UART2 is a backup port and only supports data transmission; it cannot be used for firmware upgrade.

* I2C and SPI are reserved interfaces.

3.2 Antenna Feed Design
UM680A supports feeding the antennal from the outside of the module rather than from the inside. It is recommended to use devices with high power and that can withstand high voltage. Gas discharge tube, varistor, TVS tube and other high-power protective devices may also be used in the power supply circuit to further protect the module from lightning strike and surge.
If the antenna feed supply ANT_BIAS and the module’s main supply VCC use the same power rail, the ESD, surge and overvoltage from the antenna will have an effect on VCC, which may cause damage to the module. Therefore, it is recommended to design an independent power rail for the ANT_BIAS to reduce the possibility of module damage.

VCC power-on waveform: The time interval from 10% rising to 90% must be within 100 s to 10 ms.
Power-on time interval: The time interval between the power-off (VCC < 0.4 V) to the next power-on must be larger than 500 ms.
V_BCKP The V_BCKP initial level when power-on should be less than 0.4 V.
The V_BCKP ramp when power-on should be monotonic, without plateaus. The voltages of undershoot and ringing should be within 5% V_BCKP.
V_BCKP power-on waveform: The time interval from 10% rising to 90% must be within 100 s to 10 ms.

See the following figure for the recommended PCB package design of the module UM680A.
Figure 3-4 Recommended PCB Package Design
Remark: For the convenience of testing, the soldering pads of the pins are designed long, exceeding the module border much more. For example: The pads denoted as detail C are 1.79 mm longer than the module border. The pad denoted as detail A is 0.50 mm longer than the module border. It is
relatively short as it is an RF pin pad, so we hope the trace on the surface is as short as possible to reduce the impact of interference.

5.3 Product Packaging
The UM680A module uses carrier tape and reel (suitable for mainstream surface mount devices), packaged in vacuum-sealed aluminum foil antistatic bags, with a desiccant inside to prevent moisture. When using reflow soldering process to solder modules, please strictly comply with IPC standard to conduct humidity control. As packaging materials such as the carrier tape can only withstand the temperature of 55 °C, modules shall be removed from the package during baking.

Before surface mounting, make sure that the color of the 30% circle on the HUMIDITY INDICATOR is blue (see Figure 5-4). If the color of the 20% circle is pink and the color of the 30% circle is lavender (see Figure 5-5), you must bake the module until it turns to blue. The UM680A is rated at MSL level 3. Refer to the relevant IPC/JEDEC J-STD-033 standards for the package and operation requirements. Users may access to the website www.jedec.org to get more information.
