VDD_USB must respect the following conditions:

• When VDD_MCU is powered on (VDD_MCU < VDD_MCU_min), VDD_USB should be always lower than VDD_MCU.
• When VDD_MCU is powered down (VDD_MCU < VDD_MCU_min), VDD_USB should be always lower than
• VDD_MCU.

 Notice

 Storage Conditions
Please use this product within 6month after receipt.

• The product shall be stored without opening the packing under the ambient temperature from 5 to 35 °C and humidity from 20 ~ 70 %RH. (Packing materials, in particular, may be deformed at the temperature over 40 °C)
• The product left more than 6months after reception, it needs to be confirmed the solderbility before used.
• The product shall be stored in non-corrosive gas (CL2, NH3, SO2, NOx, etc.).
•  Any excess mechanical shock including, but not limited to, sticking the packing materials by sharp object and dropping the product, shall not be applied in order not to damage the packing materials.

This product is applicable to MSL3 (Based on IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020)

• After the packing opened, the product shall be stored at <30 °C / <60 %RH and the product shall be used within 168 hours.
• When the color of the indicator in the packing changed, the product shall be baked before soldering.

Baking condition: 125 +5/-0 °C, 24 hours, 1 time
The products shall be baked on the heat-resistant tray because the material (Base Tape, Reel Tape and Cover Tape) are not heat-resistant.

 Handling Conditions
Be careful in handling or transporting products because excessive stress or mechanical shock may break products.
Handle with care if products may have cracks or damages on their terminals, the characteristics of products may change. Do not touch products with bear hands that may result in poor solderability.

Standard PCB Design (Land Pattern and Dimensions)
All the ground terminals should be connected to the ground patterns. Furthermore, the ground pattern should be provided between IN and OUT terminals. Please refer to the specifications for the standard land dimensions.
The recommended land pattern and dimensions is as Murata’s standard. The characteristics of products may vary depending on the pattern drawing method, grounding method, land dimensions, land forming method of the NC terminals and the PCB material and thickness. Therefore, be sure to verify the characteristics in the actual set. When using non-standard lands, contact Murata beforehand.

Notice for Chip Placer :
When placing products on the PCB, products may be stressed and broken by uneven forces from a worn-out chucking locating claw or a suction nozzle. To prevent products from damages, be sure to follow the specifications for the maintenance of the chip placer being used. For the positioning of products on the PCB, be aware that mechanical chucking may damage products.

Soldering Conditions：
The recommendation conditions of soldering are as in the following figure.
When products are immersed in solvent after mounting, pay special attention to maintain the temperature difference within 100 °C. Soldering must be carried out by the above mentioned conditions to prevent products from damage. Set up the highest temperature of reflow within 260 °C.
Contact Murata before use if concerning other soldering conditions.

Please use the reflow within 2 times.
Use rosin Type flux or weakly active flux with a chlorine content of 0.2 wt % or less.

Cleaning :
Since this Product is Moisture Sensitive, any cleaning is not permitted.

Operational Environment Conditions :
Products are designed to work for electronic products under normal environmental conditions (ambient temperature, humidity and pressure). Therefore, products have no problems to be used under the similar conditions to the above-mentioned. However, if products are used under the following circumstances, it may damage products and leakage of electricity and abnormal temperature may occur.

• In an atmosphere containing corrosive gas (CL2, NH3, SOx, NOx, etc.).
• In an atmosphere containing combustible and volatile gases.
• Dusty place.
• Direct sunlight place.
• Water splashing place.
• Humid place where water condenses.

Regulatory Statements

 FCC Statements
This product has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This product generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this product does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum distance 20cm between the radiator and your body
Please take attention that changes or modification not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

IC Statements
This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

1.  this device may not cause interference, and
2. this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.

Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication.
This equipment should be installed and operated with a minimum distance 20cm between the radiator and your body

When the Industry Canada certification number is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label can be use wording ”Contains transmitter module IC: 772C-LBAA0QB1SJ”or “Contains IC: 772C-LBAA0QB1SJ”.

 General Statements

The module is limited to OEM installation ONLY.
The OEM integrator is responsible for ensuring that the end-user has no manual instruction to remove or install module.
Therefore, the final host product must be submitted to Murata for confirmation that the installation for the module into the host is in compliance with regulations of FCC and IC Canada. Specially, if an antenna other than the model documented in the Filing is used, a Class 2 Permissive Change must be filed with the FCC.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
The LoRa module is for use with external antenna ONLY.
