3.1.1 Interconnections
This section describes the various interconnections for the main board.
3.1.1.1 Battery Connector M101
Battery connector M101 solders to the transceiver printed circuit board. The connector has 5 gold
plated contacts that mate with the battery, two contacts for positive, two for negative and one for the
Dig_Battery_Data. Signal descriptions are in Table 3-1.
