3.7.2 SOM Block Diagram

The Open-Q 820 SOM measuring 42mm x 82mm is where all the processing occurs. It is connected to the

carrier via a 314-pin MXM Gen-III edge connector. The purpose of this edge connector is to bring out

essential signals such that other peripherals can interface with the platform.

The SOM requires a board-to-board connector in addition to the MXM Gen III connector. This connector is

responsible for bringing out the audio signals to the carrier board whereas the MXM connector exposes all

other pin features supported by the SOC.

3.7.4 SOM RF Specification for WIFI, BT, GPS

The SOM includes the following radio interfaces:

o ANT1: Wi-Fi antenna 1 + BT

o ANT2: Wi-Fi antenna 2

o WGR7640: For GPS RF Front end

Antenna 1: The antenna 1 connector is for one of the two Wi-Fi antennas as well as the single Bluetooth

antenna. Antenna connector ANT1 is connected to the carrier board antenna via a coaxial cable.

Antenna 2: The antenna 2 connector is for the second Wi-Fi antenna. This antenna connector is also

connected to a carrier board PCB antenna via a coaxial cable.

Open-Q™ 820 Development Kit

Open-Q™ 820 Dev Kit User Guide 18

Note that two dual-band (2.4GHz + 5GHz) antennas are required to be connected to achieve full performance

of the Wi-Fi interface. If only Bluetooth is being used, then only a single 2.4GHz antenna connected to ANT1

is necessary.

The SOM WiFi/BT module has received regulatory certifications (see FCC ID: 2AFDI-ITCNFA324 for details).

Please note that the on board PCB antennas were not the antennas used for the SOM WiFi/BT module

certification. Refer to the certification documents for the WiFi/ BT module (see R-4) for information regarding

the test configurations used for certification. Deviating from the documented configuration may trigger the

need for re-certification.

For details on connecting the WiFi module to the on board PCB antennas on the carrier board, refer to section

3.8.14 below.

WGR7640: GPS Front End WGR7640 is the primary GPS radio interface used on the Open-Q 820

development kit. This provides the RF capabilities for GNSS functions.

The following are the operating frequencies for WGR7640

GPS: 1574.42 MHz – 1576.42 MHz

GLONASS: 1598 MHz to 1606 MHz

For more information about connecting a GPS antenna to the development kit see section 3.8.15

below.
