3 Application Interface Specification
3.1
Power Supply
The power supply pins of SIM5320AL include VBAT_RF and VBAT_BB. VBAT_RF directly supplies the
power to RF PA; VBAT_BB supplies the power to the baseband system. For the VBAT_RF, the current
consumption rises typically to peak of more than 2A. So the power supply must be able to provide
sufficient current up to more than 2A. The following figure is the VBAT_RF voltage ripple wave at the
maximum power transmit phase.
Please refer to Figure 8—Application circuit VBAT_RF=4.0V, VBAT maximum output current =2A,
CA=100 µF tantalum capacitor (ESR=0.7Ω) and CB=1µF.
3.1.1

Note: 1.Though the VBAT_RF and VBAT_BB are supplied by the same voltage level, they are different pins. VBAT_RF
is for RF section and VBAT_BB is for baseband system.
2. When the module is power off, users must pay attention to the issue about current leakage. Refer to Chapter 3.10.2
Note2.
3.1.2
Design Guide
Mostly, user connects the VBAT_RF and VBAT_BB pins with one power supply. Make sure that the input
voltage at the VBAT_BB pin will never drop below 3.3V even during a transmit burst when the current
consumption rises up to more than 2A. If the power voltage drops below 3.3V, the module may be shut
down automatically. Using a large tantalum capacitor (above 100uF) will be the best way to reduce the
voltage drops. If the power current cannot support up to 2A, users must introduce larger capacitor (typical
1000uF) to storage electric power.
For the consideration of RF performance and system stability, another large capacitor (above 100uF)
should be located at the VBAT_RF pin and some multi-layer ceramic chip (MLCC) capacitors (0.1uF)
need to be used for EMC because of their low ESR in high frequencies. Note that capacitors should be put
SIM5320AL_User Manual_V1.01
22
2014-08-20
Smart Machine Smart Decision
beside VBAT_RF pins as close as possible. Also User should minimize the PCB trace impedance from the
power supply to the VBAT pins through widening the trace to 80 mil or more on the board. The following
figure is the recommended circuit.
Figure 8: VBAT input application circuit
There are three sections about how to design and optimize users’ power systems.
Power supply circuit
We recommend DCDC or LDO is used for the power supply of the module, make sure that the peak
current of power components can rise up to more than 2A. The following figure is the reference design of
+5V input power supply. The designed output for the power supply is 4.1V, here a linear regulator can be
used.
Figure 9: Reference circuit of the LDO power supply
If there is a big difference between the input voltage and the desired output (VBAT), a switching converter
power will be preferable because of its better efficiency, especially at the high current situation. The
following figure is the reference circuit. Note that DCDC may deprave RF performance because of ripple
current intrinsically.

Smart Machine Smart Decision
Figure 10: Reference circuit of the DCDC power supply
Voltage monitor
To monitor the power supply voltage, user can use the AT command “AT+CBC”, this command has two
parameters: the battery status and the voltage value (mV). It will return the capacity percentage and actual
value of battery (at the VBAT_BB pin). The voltage is continuously measured at intervals, whenever the
measured battery voltage is lower than a specific value set by the AT command “AT+CVALARM”. For
example, if the voltage value is set to be 3.4V, the following URC will be presented: “warning! voltage is
low: 3.3v”.
If the voltage is lower than a specific value which is set by the AT command “AT+CPMVT”, the module
will be powered off automatically and AT commands cannot be executed any more.
Note: Under-voltage warning function is disabled by default, user can enable it by the AT command “AT+CVALARM”.
Auto power off feature is disabled by default, user should set it by the AT command “AT+CPMVT” to an appropriate
value. Please refer to Document [1].
3.1.3
RTC Backup
The module uses RTC (Real Time Clock) to update and maintain inherent time and keeps system alive at
no power supply status. The RTC power supply of module can be provided by an external capacitor or a
battery (non-chargeable or rechargeable) through the VRTC. The following figures show various reference
circuits for RTC back up. The discharge current is less than 10uA. If this feature is used, please refer to the
AT commands “AT+CTZU” and “AT +CTZR”.

UART Interface
SIM5320AL provides a UART (universal asynchronous serial transmission) port. It consists of a flexible
7-wire serial interface. The module is as the DCE (Data Communication Equipment) and the client PC is
as the DTE (Data Terminal Equipment). AT commands are entered and serial communication is performed
through UART interface.
In order to prevent the UART signals of the module damaged due to voltage spikes or ESD, some resistors
can be added on UART signals. The values of resistors are adjusted according to the actual circuit. The
resistors should be placed close to the module.
The application circuit is in the following figures.

Application Guide
If UART port is used in Null Modem, the pin “RI” can be used as an interrupt signal to HOST. Normally it
will keep high logic level until certain condition such as receiving SMS, voice call (CSD, video) or URC
reporting, then “RI” will change to low logic level to inform the master (client PC). It will stay low until
the master clears the interrupt event with AT command.
Figure 19: RI behaviour in NULL Modem
If Full Modem is used to establish communication between devices, the pin “RI” is another operation
status. Initially it keeps high, when a voice call or CSD call comes, the pin “RI” will change to low for
about 5900ms, then it will return to high level for 100ms. It will repeat this procedure until this call is
answered or hung up.
Figure 20: RI behaviour in FULL Modem
To comply with RS-232 protocol, the RS-232 level shifter chip should be used to connect SIM5320AL to
the RS-232-C interface. In this connection, the TTL level and RS-232 level are converted mutually.
SIMCom recommends that user uses the SP3238ECA chip with a full modem. For more information
please refers to the RS-232 chip datasheet.
Note: SIM5320AL supports the communication rate: 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200,

Module operation
Flight Mode: RF is closed.
Normal Mode: RF is working.
Note:
1. When the module is powered off, make sure all digital interfaces (UART, etc) connected with peripheral devices have
no voltage higher than 0.3V. If users’ design cannot meet above conditions, high level voltages maybe occur in GPIO
pins because current leakage from above digital interfaces may occur.
3.11 PCM Interface
SIM5320 provides hardware PCM interface for external codec. The PCM interface enables
communication with an external codec to support hands-free applications. SIM5320 PCM interface can be
used in two modes: the default mode is auxiliary PCM (8 KHz long sync mode at 128 KHz PCM CLK);
the other mode is primary PCM (8 KHz short sync mode at 2048 KHz PCM CLK). In short-sync
(primary PCM) mode, SIM5320 can be a master or a slave. In long-sync (auxiliary PCM) mode, SIM5320
is always a master. SIM5320 also supports 3 kinds of coding formats: 8 bits (-law or A-law) and 16 bits
(linear).
Note: PCM interface is multiplexed from GPIO (default setting). The AT command “AT+CPCM” is used to switch
between PCM and GPIO functions. Please refer to document [22] and document [1] for details.

3.11.2 Signal Description
The default PCM interface in SIM5320 is the auxiliary PCM interface. The data changes on the high level
of PCM_CLK and is sampled at the falling edge of PCM_CLK in one period. Primary PCM is disabled
after every power-on or every reset event. So user must use AT command to enable the primary PCM
mode after powering on or resetting the module every time if user wants to use Primary PCM.SIM5320
PCM Interface can be operated in Master or Slave mode if it is configured to primary PCM. In Master
Mode, the Module drives the clock and sync signals that are sent to the external codec. When it is in Slave
Mode, the external codec drives the clock and sync signals which are sent to the module. Both PCM
modes are discussed in this section followed by additional PCM topics.
Auxiliary PCM (128 KHz PCM clock)
-law coding is supported by the auxiliary PCM. The auxiliary codec port operates with standard
long-sync timing and a 128 KHz clock.
The AUX_PCM_SYNC runs at 8 KHz with 50% duty cycle.
Most -law codec support the 128 KHz clock.

PCM interface. User can use AT command to take the mode you want as discussed above.

3.12 Multi-functional interface
SIM5320AL merges functions for various applications. It can enrich users’ design and lower the cost of
users’ hardware.
3.12.1 Sink Current Source
The dedicated pin (CURRENT_SINK) is intended for driving passive devices,such as LCD backlight, this
implementation is +5V tolerant and suitable for driving white LEDs. The high-current driver can maintain
a constant current which is set by the AT command “AT+ CLEDITST”, capable of up to 150 mA.

Since the driver is ground-referenced current sink, the operating device it drives must form a current path
between the VDD pin and the CURRENT_SINK pin. The following figure is for users reference.

Note: The sinking current can be adjusted to meet design requirement through the AT command “AT+ CLEDITST =<0>,
”.The “value” ranges from 0 to 15,on behalf of the current changes from 0mA to 150mA in steps of 10mA.
3.12.2 Reset Function
SIM5320AL also have a RESET pin (PIN4) to reset the module. This function is used as an emergency
reset only when AT command “AT+CPOF” and the POWER_ON pin has no effect. User can pull the
RESET pin to ground, then the module will reset.
This pin is already pulled up in module, so the external pull-up resistor is not necessary. A 100nF capacitor
close to the RESET pin is strongly recommended. A reference circuit is recommended in the following
figure.
