3.3.1.1 Start-up Circuit
The module start-up pin FUL_CARD_POWER_OFF# requires external pull-up 18.V voltage (VDD_1V8
provided externally), and the module has two start-up modes:

AP (Application Processor) controls the module start-up, and the circuit design is shown in
Figure 3-4:

Automatically start-up when powered on, and the circuit design is shown in Figure 3-5:

Figure 3- 5 Circuit for Automatic Start-up
3.3.1.2 Start-up Timing
After the module is powered on, when the FUL_CARD_POWER_OFF# signal pulls up and exceeds 20ms
(the recommended value is 100ms), the module starts up. Meanwhile, VSD2_1V8 inside the module
outputs 1.8V voltage, and the module begins the process of start-up initialization. The start-up timing is
shown in Figure 3-6:
Figure 3-6 Start-up Timing Control Diagram
Note:
VSD2_1V8 is a PMU inside the module, it outputs 1.8V voltage and has not been led out via M.2
interface, the appearance of this voltage in timing chart is mainly purposed to facilitate the
understanding of timing;
RESET# is required to delay its pull-up for 1s compared with +3.3V, because the module needs
time for power-on of +3.3V power supply (capacitor charging). If +3.3V maintains as ordinary
power supply, then the delay time is negligible.

3.3.2.1 Software Shutdown
AT+CPWROFF command can be sent to shut down the module.
When the module receives software shutdown command, the module starts ending process (finalization,
a reverse process of initialization), and the module completes shutdown after about 3s. When ending
process, the module will save the parameters such as network and SIM card in the memory, and then
empty the memory, and switch off PMU power supply. After shutdown, VSD2_1V8 voltage inside the
module will also switch off. The software shutdown timing is shown in Figure 3-7:
Figure 3-7 Software Shutdown Timing Control Diagram
After the completion of software shutdown, FUL_CARD_POWER_OFF# still remains at high level, at this
moment, the module will not start up again. To facilitate the next start-up of the module,
FUL_CARD_POWER_OFF# should be pulled down first.
Note:
VSD2_1V8 is a PMU inside the module, it outputs 1.8V voltage and has not been led out via M.2

3.3.2.2 Hardware Shutdown
By pulling down FUL_CARD_POWER_OFF# for more than 10ms (the recommended value is 100ms),
the power management unit (PMU) of the module powers down, and then the module achieves hardware
shutdown. The PMU of the module powers down when pulling down FUL_CARD_POWER_OFF#, the
module may be damaged after several start-ups and shutdowns; therefore, RESET# pin shall be pulled
down for 100ms before pulling down FUL_CARD_POWER_OFF#. The hardware shutdown control timing
is shown in Figure 3-8:
