Sample Application
 shows a typical example of how to integrate an ALS3-US R4 module with an appli-
cation. 
The audio interface demonstrates the balanced connection of microphone and earpiece. This 
solution is particularly well suited for internal transducers.
The PWR_IND line is an open collector that needs an external pull-up resistor which connects 
to the voltage supply VCC µC of the microcontroller. Low state of the open collector pulls the 
PWR_IND signal low and indicates that the ALS3-US R4 module is active, high level notifies 
the Power Down mode. 
If the module is in Power Down mode avoid current flowing from any other source into the mod-
ule circuit, for example reverse current from high state external control lines. Therefore, the 
controlling application must be designed to prevent reverse flow.
While developing SMT applications it is strongly recommended to provide test points
for certain signals, i.e., lines to and from the module - for debug and/or test purposes.
The SMT application should allow for an easy access to these signals. For details on
how to implement test points see 
.
The EMC measures are best practice recommendations. In fact, an adequate EMC strategy for 
an individual application is very much determined by the overall layout and, especially, the po-
sition of components. 
Some LGA pads are connected to clocks or high speed data streams that might interfere with 
the module’s antenna. The RF receiver would then be blocked at certain frequencies (self in-
terference). The external application’s PCB tracks connected to these pads should therefore 
be well shielded or kept away from the antenna. This applies especially to the USB and UICC/
SIM interfaces.

No warranty, either stated or implied, is provided on the sample schematic diagram shown in

tional regulations depend to a great amount on the used electronic components and the indi-
vidual application layout manufacturers are required to ensure adequate design and operating 
safeguards for their products using ALS3-US R4 modules.
