In most situations, Overtemperature mode adequately protects the 
module against very high temperatures. However, if you use the 
module in a high duty-cycle operation for extended periods of time at 
elevated temperatures, you may want to attach a heatsink to the 
perforated top shield of the IM11. For proper placement, refer to the 
illustration of the page 14
For optimal thermal performance, connect the top shield of the 
module to a metal surface with good air flow or access to the lower 
temperature case exterior. To connect these surfaces, use a low 
thermal resistance material, such as themal grease or a thermally-
conductive spacer. 
Electrical Integration
The module communicates either over USB or through serial:
The USB client communication follows the CDC profile (a 
Microsoft standard driver) and is USB 2.0-compliant, operating at 
12 Mbps (full speed). For more information, see 
.
In Serial mode, the module communicates as a standard PC COM 
port, operating at 115.2 Kbps. It has eight general purpose inputs 
and outputs for monitoring and controlling external signals. For 
more information, see 
A Digital Signal Processor (DSP) controls the radio functions and 
provides communication with the host. This interface allows direct 
reprogramming and updating of the on-board FLASH memory. It has 
64 MB of DDR and 4 MB of SPI FLASH available.
Power Requirements
The module operates off power input from 3.15 VDC to 5.2 VDC. If 
the input is 3.3 V DC or less, you must account for significant 
increased current demand. If the input drops below 3.15 VDC, 1 Watt 
output is not possible.
