L811-EA Module Hardware User Manual Page 23 of 43 5 Hardware Interface 5.1 Power Interface 5.1.1 Power Supply The L811-EA module requires a 3.3V - 4.5V DC power supply that capable of supplying maximum GSM emission current which may up to 2A. Input power supply requirements: Parameter Minimum Value Recommended Value Maximum Value Unit VBAT 3.3 3.8 4.4 Important notes for the power supply: 1. Voltage fluctuation of the power supply should be lower than 200mV. 2. VBAT should not lower than 3.3V when the voltage dropping occurs. The filtering capacitors for designing the power supply as shown in the following tables: Recommended capacitance Application 330uF Power supply 1uF,100nF Digital signal noise 39pF,33pF 700 /850 /900 MHz 18pF,8.2pF,6.8pF 1700/1800/1900, 2100/2600MHz Description Reduce voltage fluctuation during the phone call. For capacitance value, the bigger the better. Filter for the interference caused by clock and digital signals. Filter for RF interference. Filter for RF interference. 5.1.2 VSD2_1V8 VSD2_1V8 is the power source of the internal digital circuits, it can be also used as the power indicator and the reference voltage. For circuit design, it can be only used for low current application (<50mA), floating if not used. L811-EA Module Hardware User Manual Page 24 of 43 Parameters Minimum Value Typical Value Maximum Value Unit VSD2_1V8 1.7135 1.8 1.8865 VIH 0.7* VSD2_1V8 1.8 1.8865 VIL -0.3 0.3* VSD2_1V8 5.1.3 VRTC VRTC is the power supply for the internal RTC of the module. In order to let RTC work for a certain time when lost the VBAT power, as the backup power, it is recommended to add a big capacitor at the VRTC pin. The voltage range of the VRTC as shown in the following tables: Parameters Minimum Value Recommended Value Maximum Value Unit RTC working voltage 0.4 1.8 1.89 Voltage of VRTC RTC Current Consumption 0.4V ~ 1V 1 uA 1V ~ 1.89V 2 uA The reference design of VRTC circuit shown as follows: Figure 5- 1 VRTC Reference Design Note: R8 is a current-limiting resistor, used to ensure the VRTC works properly and free from being affected by peripheral circuits. R8 ≥ 1k Ohm. The current consumption is about 2A when 1.8V VRTC is supplied from the external capacitor. The value of C9 will affect the retaining time of RTC after VBAT is lost. The remaining time of RTC can be roughly calculated by the following formula: L811-EA Module Hardware User Manual Page 25 of 43 (1.8-1)*C/2 + (1-0.4)*C/1 = 0.4C + 0.6C = 1C Ex. When using a 100uF capacitor, the remaining time is 1*100 = 100 Sec. When using a 330uF capacitor, the remaining time is 1*330 = 330 Sec. If the RTC backup power function is not required, the VRTC pin can be left floating. 5.2 Power on/off and Reset Signal The L811-EA module provides two control signals for power on/off and reset functions. Pin definition as shown in the following tables: Pin# Pin Name Electrical Level Description N8 POWER_ON/OFF# CMOS 1.8V Power on/off signal N7 RESET_N CMOS 1.8V External reset signal input, active low. 5.2.1 Power on /off Signal 5.2.1.1 Power on After the power is applied to the module, pull up the POWER_ON/OFF# signal for at least 20ms then the module will boot up. The timing sequence diagram as follows: Figure 5- 2 Power on Timing Control Diagram Note : The “>1s” time starts from the external capacitor being charged when the power is applied to the module. If VBAT is already applied to the module then the time can be ignored, and AP(Application Processor) L811-EA Module Hardware User Manual Page 26 of 43 only needs to control the timing of RESET_N and POWER_ON/OFF# signals. 5.2.1.2 Power off The L811-EA module can be turned off by software or hardware control. Software control is preferred for normal cases, only when software control is not usable, then use the hardware control. By pulling down or float the POWER_ON/OFF# signal, the module will be shut down. ① For details as shown in the following tables: Control Method Action Condition Software AT+CPWROFF Normal control for power off. Pull down or floating the Hardware POWER_ON/OFF# signal. Only used when a hardware exception occurs and the software control cannot be used. The hardware control description: By pulling down or float the POWER_ON/OFF# signal, the PMU (Power Management Unit) of the module will be reset, which results in the state changes from the working state to the shutdown state. The timing sequence diagram as follows: Figure 5- 3 Power off Timing Sequence Diagram ① Note : To safely shut down the module, the RESET_N signal must be pulled down (for at least 100ms) before pulling down the POWER_ON/OFF# signal. L811-EA Module Hardware User Manual Page 27 of 43 5.2.1.3 The Recommended Design of Power on/off The recommended design of POWER_ON/ OFF# signal is as follows: L811-EA Figure 5- 4 Recommended Design of POWER_ON/OFF# Signal 5.2.2 RESET Signal The L811-EA module supports the external reset function. By controlling the RESET_N signal, the module will reset to its initial state. When pulling down the RESET_N signal for 100ms, the module will be reset and restarted. If the module is already turned on and working before the reset, there is no need to control POWER_ON/OFF# signal to turn it on. PMU inside the module remains its power during the reset procedure. Note: The reset signal is very sensitive. It should be kept away from RF interference and well wrapped with ground planes in case of PCB layout. It is recommended to add a filter capacitor close to the module. Also, RESET_N signal trace shall neither near the PCB edge nor route on the surface planes to avoid module from reset caused by ESD.

The definition of W_DISABLE# signal as shown in the following tables: No. W_DISABLE# Function Low WWAN disabled, module enters Airplane mode. High WWAN enabled, module exits Airplane mode. Floating The WWAN function is defined by the AT command, enabled by default. 5.4.3 Android & Linux / Win8 & Win10 Dual Systems Switch Control Signal The L811-EA module supports Android & Linux / Win8 & Win10 dual systems switch by detecting the voltage level of the interrupt signal EINT3. The function of EINT3 signal as shown in the following tables: No. EINT3 Function L811-EA Module Hardware User Manual Page 31 of 43 1 High/Floating Low For Android or Linux system, the module`s USB ports mapped as 3*ACM ports. For Win8 or Win10 system, the module`s USB port is mapped as a MBIM mode. Description: 1. During booting, the implementation of Android & Linux / Win8 & Win10 system change is done by detecting the level of EINT3 signal. The voltage level of EINT3 should be kept stable during booting. 2. After boot up, the implementation of Android & Linux / Win8 & Win10 system change is done by detecting the rising or falling edge of the EINT3 interrupt with the debounce time of 100ms. If the interrupt event meets the condition, the module will restart and change over its USB mode for the desired system. 5.5 USB Interface 5.5.1 USB Interface Definition Pin# Pin Name I/O Description A13 USB_DP I/O USB D+ signal A12 USB_DN I/O USB D- signal A11 VBUS USB power input The L811-EA wireless communication module supports USB 2.0 interface. Before connecting it to the Win7 system, it is necessary to install the USB driver (For Android & Linux system, no USB driver needed but configuring the related kernel settings). After connecting the USB port to a PC, the USB driver resides in the Windows system will map three ACM ports and four NCM ports, as listed below: 2 ACM ports used for AT Commands. 1 ACM ports used for LOG information captured by the debug software. 4 NCM ports are virtual network ports, mainly used for initiating data transmission serves. Note: One of the ACM ports can be used as a Modem COM port to initiate the data services. It is not recommended to use due to the speed of Modem COM port is insufficient for the 100Mbps download speed of the LTE standard. Only when the NCM ports are not available, the Modem COM port could initiate the data service as the temporary solution. L811-EA Module Hardware User Manual Page 32 of 43 5.5.2 USB Interface Application Reference Circuit Design: L811-EA Figure 5- 6 USB Interface Reference Circuit Design The choice of capacitance for RV101 and RV102 TVS diodes should not greater than 1pF, it is recommended to use 0.5pF TVS diodes. There is no recommended capacitance value for RV100. VUSB pin supplies the power for USB, the recommended power range is 3.3V ~ 4.5V. VBUS pin should not floated or it will become the unknown device. USB_DP and USB_DM are the high-speed differential signals, and the maximum data rate is 480Mbps. The following requirements should be followed in case of PCB layout. USB_DP and USB_DN signal traces should be parallel and have the equal length, avoid right angle layout. USB_DP and USB_DN signal traces should be wrapped with GND on both sides. USB2.0 differential signal traces should be routed on the layer nearest to the ground plane. Ensure the match of impedance, which is required to be 90 Ohm. Note: VBUS is the power for USB detection (it’s the low current signal, current value < 100uA). In circuit design, it’s not permitted to apply VBUS power individually when the USB_DN and USB_DP are disconnected, or the module will not go into the sleep mode. 5.6 UART Interface 5.6.1 UART Interface Description The L811-EA module provides one 4-wire UART port. The UART1 port supports AT commands, the users can receive and transmit AT commands through UART1. L811-EA Module Hardware User Manual Page 33 of 43 The definition of UART1 signals as shown in the following tables: Pin# Pin Name I/O Description L14 UART1_CTS Clear to send K14 UART1_RTS Request to send A9 UART1_TXD Data Transmit A10 UART1_RXD Date Receive 5.6.2 UART Interface Application The signal direction when connecting the UART1 of L811-EA module (DCE) and MCU (DTE) as shown in the following tables: MCU (DTE) application Signal direction L811-EA module (DCE) RXD UART1_TXD TXD UART1_RXD Note: The voltage level of UART interface is 1.8V. When connecting to 2.8V or 3.3V I/O, it is necessary to convert the voltage level. In circuit design, it is recommended to use a SN74LVC2G07 to convert the voltage level from 1.8V to 3.3V. For connecting to a PC, first convert 1.8V to 3.3V, then use a SPIEX3232EEA to convert it to RS-232 level. The direction of the signals should be properly handled. 5.7 USIM Interface The L811-EA module supports USIM and high speed SIM cards (The 8-wire USIM is not supported yet). 5.7.1 USIM Pins Pin# Pin Name I/O Function Description D15 VSIM1 USIM power, 1.8V/2.8V E15 SIM1_RST USIM reset F15 SIM1_CLK USIM clock G15 SIM1_DATA I/O USIM data USIM card detection signal, pulled up with a 390k H15 SIM1_CD resistor by default. High when SIM card is inserted. Low when SIM card is not inserted. L811-EA Module Hardware User Manual Page 34 of 43 5.7.2 USIM Interface Design 5.7.2.1 “Normally Closed” SIM Card Circuit Design Reference Circuit Design:: Figure 5- 7 Reference Design of “Normally Closed” SIM Card Interface Normally closed SIM Connector: 1)When detaching the SIM card, pin 7 and pin 8 shorted together. 2)When inserting the SIM card, pin 7 and pin 8 opened. 5.7.2.2 “Normally Open” SIM Circuit Design Referenced Circuit Design: Figure 5- 8 Reference Design of “Normally Open” SIM Card Interface Normally open SIM Connector: 1)When detaching the SIM card, pin 7 and pin 8 opened . 2)When inserting the SIM card, pin 7 and pin 8 shorted. L811-EA Module Hardware User Manual Page 35 of 43 Note: In order to improve the EMC performance, the SIM card slot should be close to the module as much as possible. The filter capacitors for the SIM card signals should be placed close to the SIM card slot as much as possible. The ESD devices (e.g. TVS) shall be added to the SIM card signals for ESD protection. They should be placed close to the SIM card slot as much as possible. SIM1_CD signal supports hot-plugging. Active high by default (It can be changed to active low by an AT command). If the module detects the signal with high level, it means a card insertion has detected. 5.7.3 Highlights for USIM Design The SIM card interface design is very important to have the module and SIM card work normally. The rules should be followed carefully as below: SIM card slot and signal routing must keep away from the EMI interference sources, e.g. RF antenna and digital signals. The trace length between the module and SIM card should not exceed 100mm. To avoid crosstalk, USIM_CLK and USIM_IO signals should keep away in case of layout. It’s recommended to wrap them with ground planes. SIM card signals should be ESD protected. The ESD devices should have low capacitance (e.g. Zener diode). It’s recommended to choose ESD devices with capacitance equal or less than 33pF. In case of layout, ESD devices should be close to the SIM card interface. 5.7.4 USIM Hot-Plugging The L811-EA module supports the insert detection of the SIM card. With this function, the hot-plugging of SIM card can be designed. 5.7.4.1 Hardware Connection The function of SIM card hot-plugging is done by the SIM_CD signal. The SIM1_CD signal is low when the SIM card is detached, high when the SIM card is inserted. Note: For “Normally closed” design, as shown in the figure5-7, the SIM1_CD signal is connected to U2’s Pin8 (SW2), and Pin7 (SW1) is connected to the ground. When the SIM card is not inserted, SW2 and SW1 are shorted, and SW2 is low. When the SIM card is inserted, SW2 and SW1 are opened, and the SIM1_CD signal will be pulled high. For “Normally open” design, as shown in the figure5-8, the SIM1_CD signal is connected to U2’s Pin8 L811-EA Module Hardware User Manual Page 36 of 43 (SW2), and Pin7 (SW1) is pulled up with a 4.7K resistor. When the SIM card is not inserted, SW2 and SW1 are opened, and SW2 is low. When the SIM card is inserted, SW2 and SW1 are shorted, and SIM1_CD signal will be pulled high. 5.7.4.2 Software Setup “+MSMPD” command is used for the SIM card detection function: If set AT+MSMPD=0, the SIM card detection function is disabled, and the module will not detect the SIM1_CD signal. If set AT+MSMPD=1, the SIM card detection function is enabled, and the module will detect the insertion of the SIM card via SIM1_CD Pin. If SIM1_CD is high, which indicates the insertion of a SIM card, and the module will automatically register to the network. If SIM1_CD is low or disconnected, which indicates the SIM card is not inserted, and the module will not register to the network. Note: The default value of +MSMPD is “1”. The SIM_CD signal is used for SIM card detection. The module detects the presence of the SIM card via the SIM1_CD signal during the first booting. After the module boots up, it detects the SIM card by the level change of the SIM1_CD signal. In other words, if SIM1_CD is at low level, the module cannot access the SIM card. 5.8 Digital Audio The L811-EA module supports I2S interface for digital audio. The I2S port supports normal I2S mode and PCM mode for data transfer. I2S interface is at 1.8V voltage level.

It supports short frame sync for 16, 32, 48, and 64 bit mode. It supports burst and continuous transmission modes. It supports clock length trigger for frame sync signal and rising/falling edge trigger for data transmission. It supports various audio sampling rates (48KHz, 44.1KHz, 32KHz, 24KHz, 22.5KHz, 16KHz, 12KHz, 11.025KHz and 8KHz). Note: Because of the timing of I2S mode is simpler than PCM mode, it is recommended to use I2S mode for audio transmission. For PCM mode, the audio quality issues caused by the PCM timing adjusting must be avoided. 5.9 I2C Interface L811-EA module supports one I2C interface, default configured as I2C master. The I2C master is used for driving external I2C slave devices, such as audio codecs and so on.

Diversity antenna can improve the receiver sensitivity as well as the downlink speed. The RF connectors or solder joints must be connected to the L811-EA module by the trace lines. It is recommended to use the microstrip line for RF line. It should be as short as possible with the insertion loss controlled below 0.2dB, and has the impedance of 50 Ohm. For antenna fine tuning, it is recommended to reserve a π circuit (the parallel inductors should connect to the main ground) between L811-EA module and the antenna connector (or the solder joint). L811-EA Figure 7- 1 L811-EA π-type Circuit L811-EA Module Hardware User Manual Page 41 of 43 7.1.2 Impedance The impedance of the RF signal line needs to be controlled at 50 Ohm. 7.2 Antenna Design 7.2.1 Main Antenna Design Requirements (1) Antenna efficiency Antenna efficiency is the ratio of the input power and radiant power. Because of the return loss, material loss and coupling loss of the antenna, the radiant power is always lower than the input power. The ratio is recommended to be controlled over 40% (–4dB). (2) S11 or VSWR S11 indicates the matching level of the 50 Ohm impedance for the antenna. It affects the antenna efficiency in a certain extent. The VSWR testing method could be used for measuring purposes. The recommended value for S11 is less than –10dB. (3) Polarization Polarization refers to the rotation direction of electric field while the antenna is in the direction of maximum radiation. Linear polarization is recommended. It is recommended to use the diversity antenna which has the different polarization direction from the main antenna. (4) Radiation pattern The radiation pattern refers to the intensity of the electromagnetic field while the antenna is in every direction of the far field. Dipole antenna is perfect as the terminal antenna. For built-in antenna, it is recommended to use PIFA or IFA antennas. Antenna dimension: 6mm * 10mm * 100mm (H*W*L). Antenna radiation direction: Omnidirectional. (5) Gain and directivity Antenna directivity refers to the intensity of the electromagnetic field while the electromagnetic wave is in all directions. Gain is the collection of of the efficiency and directivity of the antenna. It is recommended that antenna gain is less than or equal to 3dBi. (6) Interference In addition to antenna performance, some other interference from the PCB will also affect the module performance. To ensure the high performance of the module, the interference must be under control. Suggestions: Keep speaker, LCD, CPU, FPC wire routing, audio circuits, and power supply away from the L811-EA Module Hardware User Manual Page 42 of 43 antenna, and add appropriate filtering and shielding protection, or adding filtering devices on the traces.
