2.1 About the GR47/GR48 Family
Two radio devices make up the family; GR47 and GR48, for use in the
E-GSM900/GSM1800 and GSM850/GSM1900 bands respectively.
1RWH This manual refers to the GR47 and GR48 as radio devices. If there is a
difference in the functionality of the radio devices the GR47 and GR48
information will be listed separately.
The products belong to a new generation of Sony Ericsson radio devices,
and are intended to be used in machine-to-machine applications and man-
to-machine applications. They are used when there is a need to send and
receive data (by SMS, CSD, HSCSD, or GPRS), and make voice calls over
the GSM network.
The radio devices can either have applications embedded onto them or they
can be used as the engine in an application created by the customer. The
radio device can send and receive data when a script is executed, the script
can be run internally from the radio device itself or from a micro-controller.
A typical application, involves a micro-controller and a radio device, in
which the micro-controller sends AT commands to the radio device via an
RS232 communications link.
2.2 Radio Devices in a Communication System
Figures 2.1 and 2.2 illustrate the main blocks of a wireless communication
system using the radio device. Figure 2.1 shows the communication system
when the script is embedded on the radio device and figure 2.2 shows the
communication system when a micro-controller is used. They also show the
communication principles of the system and the interface between the
radio device and the application. The definitions in the figures, as used
elsewhere in this manual, are in accordance with the recommendations of
GSM 07.07.
• The MS (mobile station) represents the radio device and SIM card. The
radio device excluding SIM card, is known as the ME (mobile
equipment).
• The DTE (data terminal equipment) is the controlling application. This
can be either an external host or an internal embedded application.
• The DCE (data circuit terminating equipment) is the serial
communication interface of the MS.

5. System Connector Interface
5.1 Overview
Electrical connections to the radio device (except the antenna), are made
through the System Connector Interface. The system connector is a 60-pin,
standard 0.05 in (1.27 mm) pitch device.
The system connector allows both board-to-board and board-to-cable
connections to be made. Use a board-board connector to connect the radio
device directly to a PCB, and a board-cable connector to connect the radio
device via a cable.
Figure 5.1 below shows the numbering of the connector pins.
A ground connection is provided at the mounting hole next to the RF
connector on the radio device as shown below. Connect this ground point
to the DGND pins of the radio device by the shortest, low-impedance path
possible. The purpose of this connection is to allow any antenna ESD
strikes to bypass the radio device’s internal ground path.

• The SIM output signals and the SIMVCC supply will continuously
withstand a short circuit to any voltage within the range 0 V to 4.1V.
5.3 Grounds
There are two ground connections in the radio device, AGND (analogue
ground) and DGND (digital ground). Pin assignments are shown in the
table above.
1RWH AGND and DGND are connected at a single point inside the radio device.
They must not be joined together in your application.
5.3.1 Analogue Ground - AGND
AGND is the return signal, or analogue audio reference, for ATMS (Audio
To Mobile Station) and AFMS (Audio From Mobile Station). It is
connected to the DGND inside the radio device only. The application must
not connect DGND and AGND.
5.3.2 Digital Ground - DGND
DGND is the reference or return signal for all system interface digital
signals and is also the d.c. return for SERVICE and the power supply, VCC.
Connect all DGND pins together in your application in order to carry the
current drawn by the radio device.
5.4 VCC - Regulated Power Supply Input
Power is supplied to the radio device VCC pins, from an external source.

LZT 123 7589 R1A
Connect all VCC pins together in your application in order to carry the
current drawn by the radio device.
The electrical characteristics for VCC are shown in the table below.
1RWH The radio device has no internal capacitance to supply the large current
peaks during GSM burst transmission. We recommend you follow these
general guidelines:
• Fit a low ESR electrolytic capacitor close to the radio device:
> 1,000 µF;
< 100 mΩ ESR.
• Make sure power supply to radio device line resistance is < 200 mΩ.
5.5 Battery Charging Input (CHG_IN)
For battery powered applications, the radio device has a connection to aid
and support battery charging. The typical design where this may be
applicable is to power the radio device directly from a battery source
connected to VCC (pins 1, 3, 5, 7, 9) and to provide a 5V dc power source
(600mA max) to the CHG_IN connection (pin 11). The radio device can
control an internal switching FET which creates a charging pathway to the
battery. While power is provided at CHG_IN, the battery charge can be
maintained. If the power should fail or be removed at CHG_IN, the
application will be supported by the battery alone. When CHG_IN
voltage returns, the battery charging and maintenance will commence once
more.
&DXWLRQ Battery charging algorithms are unique to different battery types. Sony
Ericsson Mobile Communications will not accept any responsibility or
liability for damage, product failures, even death or injury occurring as a
result of incompatible battery and charging algorithms being applied
without their prior knowledge and consent.

Safety considerations should be taken into account. For example,
monitoring the temperature of the battery. If the temperature of the
battery exceeds its specification limits, battery charging must be stopped
immediately. If the battery temperature continues to rise the application
should be suspended or the battery disconnected.
1RWH When charging Lithium batteries, the battery pack must have an internal
protection circuit in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

5.7 Analogue Audio
ATMS is the audio input, and AFMS is the audio output, of the radio
device. These signals can be used in car kit mode.
There are three factory-set audio profiles:
• portable handsfree
• handset
• car kit
Portable handsfree is the factory-set default profile. The modification,
configuration, manipulation and storage of audio profiles is achieved with
the AT*E2EAMS (Audio Profile Modification) and AT*E2APR (Audio
Profile).
5.7.1 Audio To Mobile Station - ATMS
ATMS is the analogue audio input to the radio device. Internally, the signal
is sent to the CODEC (COder/DECoder), where it is converted to digital
audio in PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) format. The encoded audio is sent
to PCMOUT via the internal PCM bus.
ATMS provides a DC bias when it is used as the microphone input in
Portable Hands-free applications. All other sources must be a.c.-coupled to
avoid attenuation of low frequencies, and to prevent incorrect biasing or
damage to the ATMS input. Use a capacitor greater than the value shown
in the table below.
The ATMS input is a passive network followed by the transmit part of the
CODEC.

5.8.1 PCM Data Format
All of the radio device’s PCM signals, including signals between its
CODEC and DSP conform to the PCM data I/O format of the industry
standard DSP from Texas Instruments.
PCMCLK (bit clock) and PCMSYNC (frame synchronisation) are both
generated by the DSP within the radio device.
The DSP within the radio device is the master therefore all external PCM
clocks and data from external devices must be synchronized to it
13-Bit PCM Mode
The radio device implements 13-bit PCM with the 13-bit data embedded
in a 16-bit word within a 24-bit frame (see Figure 5.8). Each PCM word
contains 16-bits: D0 to D15. D13 to D1 is the two’s complement value of
the 13-bit PCM, with D13 as the sign bit. D14 and D15 are always set to
be equivalent with D13. D0, the LSB, is not used as shown in Figure 5.7
below.

The PCM timing is shown in Figure 5.8 below and it is seen that the CPU
has 45 µs to serve an interrupt and setup data channels. Data is sent on the
falling edge of the sync pulse. The data bits in PCMULD and PCMDLD
are aligned so that the MSB in each word occurs on the same clock edge as
shown in Figure 5.9.

communication links to the application or accessory units.
• UART1 has RS-232 functionality and is used for all on- and off -line
communication.
• UART2 behaves as a general-purpose serial data link. For example, it
can be used for GPS, downloading software and receiving logging
information.

Digital 2.75 V CMOS input/output electrical characteristics apply.
The standard character format consists of 1 start bit, 8 bit data, no parity
and 1 stop bit. In all, there are 10 bits per character.
5.9.1 UART1 (RS232) - RD, TD, RTS, CTS, DTR, DSR, DCD and RI
UART1 signals conform to a 9-pin RS232 (V.24) serial port.
1RWH UART1 signal levels do not match standard RS232 (V.28) levels. The
relationship between the levels is shown in the table below.
Conversion between the radio device CMOS levels and RS232 levels can be
achieved using a standard interface IC, such as the Maxim Integrated
Products MAX3237.
5.9.2 Serial Data Signals - RD, TD
The default baud rate is 9.6 kbits/s, however higher bit rates of up to
460 kbits/s are supported, set by an AT command. UART1 starts at a rate
of 9.6 kbits/s in standard AT command mode. The radio device also
supports GSM 07.10 multiplexing protocol and starts when the
appropriate command is sent.
Serial Data From Radio Device (RD)
RD is an output signal that the radio device uses to send data via UART1
to the application.
Serial Data To Radio Device (TD)
TD is an input signal, used by the application to send data via UART1 to
the radio device.

5.9.3 Control Signals - RTS, CTS, DTR, DSR, DCD, RI
UART1 control signals are active low and need a standard interface IC,
such as the MAX3237, to generate standard RS232 levels.
UART1 converted signals, together with DGND, RD and TD form a
9-pin RS232 data port.
RTS and CTS are capable of transmitting at 1/10th of the data transmission
speed for data rates up to 460 kbit/s (byte-oriented flow control
mechanism).
1RWH When hardware flow control is not used in communications between the
application and the radio device, RTS and CTS must be connected to each
other at the radio device.
Switching times for RTS and CTS
The table below shows the switching times.
Request to Send (RTS)
Used to condition the DCE for data transmission. The default level is high
by internal pull up.
The application must pull RTS low to enable data transmission from the
radio device. Similarly, the radio device asserts CTS low, indicating it is
ready to receive data transmission from the host.
Clear To Send (CTS)
CTS is asserted by the DCE to indicate that the host (DTE) may transmit
data. When CTS is high, the host (DTE) is not permitted to transmit data.
The table below shows the load characteristics for this signal.

Data Terminal Ready (DTR)
DTR indicates that the DTE is ready to receive data. It also acts as a
hardware ‘hang-up’, terminating calls when switched high. The signal is
active low. You can define the exact behaviour of DTR with an AT
command.
Data Set Ready (DSR)
DSR indicates that the DCE is ready to receive data. The signal is active
low.
Data Carrier Detect (DCD)
DCD indicates that the DCE is receiving a valid carrier (data signal) when
low.
Ring Indicator (RI)
RI indicates that a ringing signal is being received by the DCE when low.
You can define the exact behaviour of RI with an AT command.
5.9.4 UART2 - TD2, RD2
UART 2 consists of a full duplex serial communication port with
transmission and reception lines.
This communication port works in a mode called Operation and
Maintenance.
Operation and Maintenance mode works in combination with the
SERVICE signal. Two events are possible if the SERVICE signal is active
when the radio device is turned on. These are:
• the radio device is reprogrammed if UART2 is connected to a computer
running Sony Ericsson update software;
• the radio device enters logging mode and sends data to UART2 if no
reprogramming information is received.
Timing and electrical signals characteristics are the same as for UART1,
TD and RD, except for maximum baud rate which could increase to
921 kbps.
Transmitted Data 2 (TD2)
TD2 is used by the application to send data to the radio device via UART2.
It has the same electrical characteristics as TD.
Received Data 2 (RD2)
RD2 is used to send data to the application via UART2. It has the same
electrical characteristics as RD.

TD3 is used by your application to send data to the radio device via
UART3.
Received Data 3 (RD3)
RD3 is used to send data to your application via UART3.
5.10 SIM Card Related Signals
These connections allow you to communicate with the SIM card holder in
your application.
1RWH The distance between the SIM card holder and the radio device can be up
to 25cm.
This SIM interface allows the use of 3 V and 5 V SIM cards. By default it
works on 3 V levels but will automatically switch to 5 V, if a 5 V SIM card
is fitted.
SIM voltage levels, as shown in the following table, are dependent on the
type of SIM card detected by the radio device.

5.10.1 SIM Detection - SIMPRESENCE
SIMPRESENCE is used to determine whether a SIM card has been inserted
into or removed from the SIM card holder. You should normally wire it to
the “card inserted switch” of the SIM card holder, but different
implementations are possible.
When left open, an internal pull-up resistor maintains the signal high and
means “SIM card missing” to the radio device. When pulled low the radio
device assumes a SIM card is inserted.
SIMPRESENCE is a Digital 2.75V CMOS input with the following
electrical characteristics.
1RWH To meet regulatory approvals SIMPRESENCE must be implemented.
5.11 Service/Programming
When the SERVICE input signal is active the radio device will:
• be reprogrammed if data is received through UART2 from a computer
running Sony Ericsson reprogramming software;
• or it will output logging data on UART2.

The operational modes of multiplexed signals are controlled by AT
commands and also by intrinsic functions available to an embedded
The following table gives you the input impedance. These values only
apply when the ports are configured as input signals.
1RWHV I/O6 (LED) doesn’t have an internal pull up. If this pin is configured as an
input, it should not be left floating.
I/O7 (TD3) has a pull down instead of a pull up.
5.15 Extended I/O capabilities
To increase flexibility and variety of radio device peripherals, the RS232
hardware flow control shares its physical interface with the keypad
scanning interface and the extended general purpose I/O capability. This
sharing means that it is not feasible to operate all these features
concurrently, however, with care, dynamic switching from one feature to
another is possible.
Using Embedded Applications
When a particular I/O feature is required, the user sets the state of the
relevant I/O blocks by disabling one set before enabling others.
The radio device checks the state of the I/O when the user requests a new
function. The new function is rejected if the current function is not released
first.
1RWH Only the states of I/O1 - I/O5 are retained for the next power up. For
example, inputs remain as inputs and outputs remain as outputs. The
voltage of a defined output pin will still drop to 0 Volts in the radio device
power down state.
5.15.1 LED/IO6 Capabilities
The LED function pin can be used as a general purpose digital I/O when
the flashing LED function is not required. However, this pin does not have
an on-board pull-up resistor. It is required that an external pull-up or pull-
down resistor be provided by the host circuitry when either not used or
when used as a digital input.

LZT 123 7589 R1A
5.15.2 I#/O#
If pins labelled I# and O# are not being used for an alternative function
they may be used for general purpose inputs or outputs respectively. The
inputs have an on-board 100k pull-up resistor and the outputs are driven
rail-to-rail at 2.75V levels.
5.15.3 UART3/IO#
The UART3 pins have been given alternative functions as general purpose
I/O, both pins may be used for either input or output. However, the TX
pin has a 100kΩ pull-down resistor to ground and the RX pin has a 100kΩ
pull-up resistor to 2.75V. This must be taken into consideration when
designing the host circuit.
5.15.4 IO#/ADC#
To increase analog input capabilities, the radio device optimises the I/O by
multiplexing or sharing different features on single pins. There are two
digital I/O pins which now have an additional ADC input. When
configured as digital I/O, the software will not read the voltages at the two
new ADC inputs. When configured as ADC inputs the software will
configure the digital I/O pins as input or high impedance tri-state. In this
state any applied voltage between 0V and 2.75V can be read as an 8 bit
value.
Because the additional ADC inputs (ADC4 and ADC5) are common with
digital I/O, the input circuit of the ADC is not the same as for the original
circuits ADC1-3. It is important to understand the input structure of the
pin so that the correct analog voltage is read by the application.

versa.

The ADC is an 8-bit converter. An analogue value applied to any of the
ADC pins is converted and stored in a register inside the radio device.
When the appropriate AT command is received by the radio device, the
digital value stored in the register is read.
ADC electrical characteristics are shown in the table below.
(9) Tolerance on this internal voltage is ±5%
5.16.3 Analogue to Digital Converters 4 and 5 - IOx/ADCx
To increase analog input capabilities, the GR47 optimises the I/O by
multiplexing or sharing different features on single pins. There are two
ADC inputs which share system connector pins with digital I/O signals.
When configured as digital I/O, the software will not read the voltages at
the two new ADC inputs. When configured as ADC inputs the software
will configure the digital I/O pins as input or high impedance tri-state. In
this state any applied voltage between 0V and 2.75V can be read as an 8
bit value.
Because the ADC inputs, ADC4 and ADC5, are common with digital I/O,
the input circuit of these Adds is not the same as for the circuits ADC1,
ADC2 and ADC3. It is important to understand the input structure of the
pin so that the correct analog voltage is read by the application (at position
’A’ in Figure 5.12 below). The input structure is provided in Figure 5.12.
It consists of a 100kΩ pull-up to 2.75V followed by a series 10kΩ and 1nF
capacitor to ground which make a low pass filter with a 3dB roll-off at
about 16kHz. The input impedance of the analog IC is 1MΩ minimum.

time-of-day calendar and alarm, and a one-hundred-year calendar. Its
accuracy is shown in the table below
The Real Time Clock operates in two modes when connected to a separate
power supply:
• RTC normal mode: the radio device is in ON or OFF mode and it is
supplied with power (VCC is applied).
• RTC back-up mode: VCC is disconnected and the RTC is maintained
by a separate backup power supply connected to the VRTC input (see
Figure 5.13 below).
Backup power is provided by a capacitor, golden-capacitor or battery in
your application and must be connected to the VRTC pin. During RTC
normal operation, the back up source will be charged.

The radio device’s antenna connector allows transmission of the radio
frequency (RF) signals from the radio device to an external customer-
supplied antenna. The connector is a micro-miniature coaxial MMCX
surface mounted component. A number of suitable MMCX type, mating
plugs are available from the following manufacturers;
• Amphenol;
• Suhner;
• IMS Connector Systems.
The nominal impedance of the antenna interface is 50Ω.

LZT 123 7589 R1A
7. Keyboard Interface
To increase I/O capabilities, the radio device optimises the I/O by
multiplexing or sharing different features on single pins. The I/O has been
extended to allow simple interfacing of a matrix keypad.
7.1 IO#/KEYROW#
When configured for keypad operation the software will configure the dig-
ital I/O pins as input or high impedance tri-state. In this state, the keypad
matrix row can be read from the KEYROW# inputs. These pins have a
100kΩ pull-up to 2.75V and the rows are considered activated when the
voltage is pulled low by the external keypad switches.
7.2 KEYCOL#
The keypad matrix column drivers share functionality with the RS232
hardware flow control signals.
In addition to the keypad column outputs it is possible to use a direct
ground connection as an additional column driver, which is interpreted as
column zero.
Simply connect one keypad column directly to ground. When a key in this
column is depressed KEYROW# is activated.
Thus it is possible to create a variety of keypad matrix sizes from single
column to five columns wide.
Finally, a standard keypad matrix directly connects the rows to the
columns whenever a key is depressed. In order to avoid short circuits if
multiple keys are pressed simultaneously, the column drivers must be
open-collector. This must be achieved with external transistors as the logic
drive from the radio device is rail-to-rail. Suitable transistors for this
interface are of the type with built in bias resistors between base and
emitter.

LZT 123 7589 R1A
8. Hints for Integrating the Radio Device
This chapter gives you advice and helpful hints on how to integrate the
radio device into your application from a hardware perspective.
Please read and consider the information under the following headings
before starting your integration work:
• Safety advice and precautions.
• Installation of the radio device.
• Antenna.
8.1 Safety Advice and Precautions
8.1.1 General
• Always ensure that use of the radio device is permitted. The radio
device may present a hazard if used in proximity to personal medical
electronic devices. As a rule, the radio device must not be used in
hospitals, airports or planes.
• You are responsible for observing your country’s safety standards, and
where applicable the relevant wiring rules.
• Never use the radio device at a gas station, refuelling point, blasting
area or in any other environment where explosives may be present.
• Operating the radio device close to other electronic devices, such as
antennas, television sets, and radios may cause electromagnetic
interference.
• Never try to dismantle the radio device yourself. There are no
components inside the radio device that can be serviced by the user. If
you attempt to dismantle the radio device, you may invalidate the
warranty.
• To protect the power supply cables and meet the fire safety
requirements, it is recommended that the electrical circuits are supplied
with a power regulator. The power regulator should be placed as close
to the terminals of the power supply as possible.
• Do not connect any incompatible component or product to the radio
device.
1RWH Sony Ericsson does not warrant against defects, non-conformities or
deviations caused thereby.
• The connection/disconnection method for the development board is by
means of the DC power jack. For this reason, the mains supply should
be situated close to the development board and be easily accessible.
8. HINTS FOR INTEGRATING THE RADIO DEVICE
55
LZT 123 7589 R1A
8.1.2 SIM Card
• Before handling the SIM card in your application, ensure that you are
not charged with static electricity. Use proper precautions to avoid
electrostatic discharges. The radio device must be switched off before
the SIM card is installed in your application.
• When the SIM card hatch is opened, the SIM card connectors lie
exposed under the SIM card holder. CAUTION: Do not touch these
connectors! If you do, you may release an electrical discharge that could
damage the radio device or the SIM card.
• When designing your application, the SIM card’s accessibility should
be taken into account. We always recommend that you have the SIM
card protected by a PIN code. This will ensure that the SIM card cannot
be used by an unauthorized person.
8.1.3 Antenna
• If the antenna is to be mounted outside, consider the risk of lightning.
Follow the instructions provided by the antenna manufacturer.
• Never connect more than one radio device to a single antenna. The
radio device can be damaged by radio frequency energy from the
transmitter of another radio device.
• Like any mobile station, the antenna of the radio device emits radio
frequency energy. To avoid EMI (electromagnetic interference), you
must determine whether the application itself, or equipment in the
application’s proximity, needs further protection against radio emission
and the disturbances it might cause. Protection is secured either by
shielding the surrounding electronics or by moving the antenna away
from the electronics and the external signals cable.
• The radio device and antenna may be damaged if either come into
contact with ground potentials other than the one in your application.
Beware, ground potential are not always what they appear to be.
• In the final application, the antenna must be positioned more than
20 cm away from human bodies. When this rule cannot be applied, the
application designer is responsible for providing the SAR measurement
test report and declaration.
• Even if SAR measurements are not required, it is considered good
practice to insert a warning in any manual produced, indicating it is a
radio product and that care should be taken.

LZT 123 7589 R1A
8.2 Installation of the Radio Device
8.2.1 Where to Install the Radio Device
There are several conditions which need to be taken into consideration
when designing your application as they might affect the radio device and
its function. They are:
Environmental Conditions
The radio device must be installed so that the environmental conditions
stated in the Technical Data chapter, such as temperature, humidity and
vibration are satisfied. Additionally, the electrical specifications in the
Technical Data section must not be exceeded.
Signal Strength
The radio device has to be placed in a way that ensures sufficient signal
strength. To improve signal strength, the antenna can be moved to another
position. Signal strength may depend on how close the radio device is to a
radio base station. You must ensure that the location at which you intend
to use the radio device, is within the network coverage area.
Degradation in signal strength can be the result of a disturbance from
another source, for example an electronic device in the immediate vicinity.
More information about possible communication disturbances can be
found in section 8.3.5, page 59.
When an application is completed, you can verify signal strength by
issuing the AT command AT+CSQ. See the AT Commands Manual for
further details.
7LS Before installing the radio device, use an ordinary mobile telephone to
check a possible location for it. In determining the location for the radio
device and antenna, you should consider signal strength as well as cable
length
Connection of Components to Radio Device
The integrator is responsible for the final integrated system. Incorrectly
designed or installed, external components may cause radiation limits to be
exceeded. For instance, improperly made connections or improperly
installed antennas can disturb the network and lead to malfunctions in the
radio device or equipment.
Network and Subscription
• Before your application is used, you must ensure that your chosen
network provides the necessary telecommunication services. Contact
your service provider to obtain the necessary information.
8. HINTS FOR INTEGRATING THE RADIO DEVICE
57
LZT 123 7589 R1A
• If you intend to use SMS in the application, ensure this is included in
your (voice) subscription.
• Consider the choice of the supplementary services described in section
2.3.2 Short Message Service, page 10.
8.2.2 How to Install the Radio Device
Power Supply
• Use a high-quality power supply cable with low resistance. This ensures
that the voltages at the connector pins are within the allowed range,
even during the maximum peak current. An electrolytic capacitor
should be placed close to the power supply pins of the radio device to
supply the peak currents during burst transmission. See 5.4 VCC -
Regulated Power Supply Input, page 23.
• See section 5.2.1 General Protection Requirements, page 22.
Grounds
A ground connection is provided at the mounting hole next to the RF
connector on the radio device (see Figure 5.1, page 19). Connect this
ground point to the DGND pins of the radio device by the shortest, low-
impedance path possible. The purpose of this connection is to allow any
ESD picked up by the antenna to bypass the radio device’s internal ground
path.
1RWH It is recommended that you use a cable with a maximum resistance of 5 mΩ
for the ground connection.
1RWH AGND and DGND are connected at a single point inside the radio device.
They must not be joined together in your application.
Audio
Use a coupling capacitor in ATMS line if the application does not use the
radio device’s bias voltage. See also Figure 5.5 Microphone connections to
the radio device, page 31.
Software Upgrade
To upgrade the software, the system connector must be accessible in your
application. The pins SERVICE, TD2, RD2 and the power signals are used
for this purpose. Please contact customer support for more details.
8. HINTS FOR INTEGRATING THE RADIO DEVICE

LZT 123 7589 R1A
8.3 Antenna
8.3.1 General
The antenna is the component in your system that maintains the radio link
between the network and the radio device. Since the antenna transmits and
receives electromagnetic energy, its efficient function will depend on:
• the type of antenna (for example, circular or directional);
• the placement of the antenna;
• communication disturbances in the vicinity in which the antenna
operates.
In the sections below, issues concerning antenna type, antenna placement,
antenna cable, and possible communication disturbances are addressed.
In any event, you should contact your local antenna manufacturer for
additional information concerning antenna type, cables, connectors,
antenna placement, and the surrounding area. You should also determine
whether the antenna needs to be grounded or not. Your local antenna
manufacturer might be able to design a special antenna suitable for your
the application.
8.3.2 Antenna Type
Make sure that you choose the right type of antenna for the radio device.
Consider the following requirements:
• the antenna must be designed for the dual frequency bands in use:
E-GSM900/GSM1800 for the GR47 and
GSM 850/GSM1900 for the GR48;
• the impedance of the antenna and antenna cable must be 50 Ω;
• the antenna output-power handling must be a minimum of 2 W;
• the VSWR value should be less than 3:1 to avoid damage to the radio
device.
8.3.3 Antenna Placement
The antenna should be placed away from electronic devices or other
antennas. The recommended minimum distance between adjacent
antennas, operating in a similar radio frequency band, is at least 50 cm.
If signal strength is weak, it is useful to face a directional antenna at the
closest radio base station. This can increase the strength of the signal
received by the radio device.
The radio device’s peak output power can reach 2 W. RF field strength
varies with antenna type and distance. At 10 cm from the antenna the field
strength may be up to 70 V/m and at 1m it will have reduced to 7 V/m.
8. HINTS FOR INTEGRATING THE RADIO DEVICE
59
LZT 123 7589 R1A
In general, CE-marked products for residential and commercial areas, and
light industry can withstand a minimum of 3 V/m.
8.3.4 The Antenna Cable
Use 50 Ω impedance low-loss cable and high-quality 50 Ω impedance
connectors (frequency range up to 2 GHz) to avoid RF losses. Ensure that
the antenna cable is as short as possible.
The Voltage Standing-Wave Ratio (VSWR) may depend on the
effectiveness of the antenna, cable and connectors. In addition, if you use an
adapter between the antenna cable and the antenna connector, it is crucial
that the antenna cable is a high-quality, low-loss cable.
Minimize the use of extension cables, connectors and adapters. Each
additional cable, connector or adapter causes a loss of signal power.
8.3.5 Possible Communication Disturbances
Possible communication disturbances include the following:
•Noise can be caused by electronic devices and radio transmitters.
•Path-loss occurs as the strength of the received signal steadily decreases
in proportion to the distance from the transmitter.
•Shadowing is a form of environmental attenuation of radio signals
caused by hills, buildings, trees or even vehicles. This can be a
particular problem inside buildings, especially if the walls are thick and
reinforced.
•Multi-path fading is a sudden decrease or increase in the signal
strength. This is the result of interference caused when direct and
reflected signals reach the antenna simultaneously. Surfaces such as
buildings, streets, vehicles, etc., can reflect signals.
•Hand-over occurs as you move from one cell to another in the GSM
network. Your mobile application call is transferred from one cell to the
next. Hand-over can briefly interfere with communication and may
cause a delay, or at worst, a disruption.
9. EMBEDDED APPLICATIONS
60
LZT 123 7589 R1A
9. Embedded Applications
The radio device has the capability to store and run customer written code
in the form of a script during the processor’s idle time, through the use of
an on board interpreter.
9.1 Features
Main features of embedded applications are as follows.
• C based scripting language (Sony Ericsson specific);
• Over the air upgrade of scripts (NOT GSM software);
• Library of intrinsic functions;
• 2 scripts can be stored in the memory at any time but only 1 can be
active.
9.2 Implementation
The radio device has up to 44k of space available for storage of two scripts
in the scripting language and 25k of operating RAM. Structures included
in this language are:
• If - then - else statements
• While loops
• For loops
All hardware interfaces that are normally available to the radio device
through the AT commands are available to the embedded application.
Further drivers have been written such as M bus, keypad, SPI and I2C for
use by the embedded application (EA) through the use of the I/O pins.
9.2.1 Limitations
Since the radio device is processing the script using its own memory,
limitations are placed onto the scripts that are run.
• A direct comparison cannot be made to a fully compiled C program in
terms of size but a gauge of script size is that if each line were 128
characters long in the script then the script could be 350 lines long.
• Processing power is something that needs to be considered as the script
is run as a low priority process within the software. However, controller
mode stops GSM operation and provides all the processing power for
the script to be run. See the M2mpower Application Guide for more
details.
• Code cannot be ported directly from an existing application and loaded
directly onto the radio device. It must be re written in the Sony
Ericsson Mobile script language so that the radio device interpreter can
function correctly.

9.2.2 M2mpower IDE (Integrated Development Environment)
The IDE is a Windows based package which allows the user to write,
simulate, debug and download the application into a radio device with the
embedded application (EA) software. The standard version is designed to
run on Windows XP and 2000, other versions are available for 98 if
required.
The M2mpower Application Guide is available for implementing
applications using the developer’s kit and the embedded application (EA)
functionality.
This is a required package to be able to implement an embedded
application (EA).
For further information please contact Sony Ericsson Mobile
Communications customer support.
10. TCP/IP STACK
62
LZT 123 7589 R1A
10. TCP/IP Stack
An on board IP/TCP/UDP stack has been integrated into the software
negating the need for the customer to implement one in their own code
base.
This is only accessible by using an embedded applications (see section 9)
using intrinsic functions.
10.1 Implementation
The following types of commands allow various functions:
• Open/closing IP connection - Negotiates/closes a dynamic IP address
with the web server.
• Send/Receive TCP packets - Performs all TCP operations to send and
receive packets.
• Send/Receive UDP packets - Performs all UDP operations to send and
receive packets.
• Resolve URL to an IP address - Similar to nslookup command in DOS
When the unit is set up and controlled using the embedded applications
either the embedded applications or an external application can generate
data to be sent and pass it to the radio device for transmission.
This effectively provides a transparent communication link from the
application to an internet server over GPRS.

The developer’s kit for the radio devices is designed to get you started
quickly. It contains all the hardware you will need to begin the
development of an application. The only items you need to provide are; a
computer, a SIM card and network subscription, and a knowledge of
programming with AT commands.
1RWH Before connecting up and using the developer’s kit, we strongly
recommend you read “Integrating the Radio Device”, page 16 and all of
this section. There are many switches, jumpers and connector options in
the developer’s kit. A knowledge of the functionality of the radio device is
therefore essential before you start altering the hardware settings.
The main hardware in the developer’s kit is a box, containing a board onto

14.3 Jumpers
All jumpers are located on the developer’s board (see “Developer’s board
overlay”, page 73).
3RZHUDQG&RQWURO
8$57
Jumper Default Description
INT/EXT INT Selects which voltage path supplies the DK support
circuitry (not the supply to the radio device).
INT selects power from the internal +3.6V DC supply.
EXT selects power from the EXT VCC connector.
TO_IN - With jumper TO_IN fitted, the DK and the radio device
will automatically power-up as soon as power is
applied to DC Jack X9.
SHDN -With jumper SHDN fitted, the internal +3.6V power
supply will be disabled.
Note: There is a second jumper labelled ’SHDN’ which
is in the UART area (by X4).
VRTC Fitted This jumper connects the DK real-time-clock backup
capacitor to the VRTC pin of the radio device.
Jumper Default Description
SRVC -When fitted, the module will be operated in ’Service’
mode enabling system-status logging from the radio
device.The red ‘Service’ LED will be illuminated.
PORT - When fitted, switches the serial port from the 'AT'
command port UART1 to UART2/UART3.
Note: Use the PORT jumper link in conjunction with
links “TD2/TD3” and “RD2/RD3” to select between
UART2/UART3.
TD2/TD3 -This dual jumper selects the TD (Transmit Data) line for
either UART2 or UART3 as the alternative serial port
when jumper 'PORT' is fitted. The jumper connects
TD2 or TD3 to the centre pin to make the selection.
See “Connectors”, page 80 for more details.
Note: When UART2 or UART3 is used via the
application connector, the TD2 or TD3 jumper must
be removed to avoid circuit conflicts within the DK.
RD2/RD3 - This dual jumper selects the RD (Receive Data) line
for either UART2 or UART3 as the alternative serial port
when jumper 'PORT' is fitted. The jumper connects
RD2 or RD3 to the centre pin to make the selection.
See “Connectors”, page 80 for more details.
Note: When UART2 or UART3 is used via the
application connector, the RD2 or RD3 jumper must
be removed to avoid circuit conflicts within the DK.
14. USING THE DEVELOPER’S KIT

LZT 123 7589 R1A
DIS -When fitted, the serial port driver IC disables the
receiver buffers that normally drive UART signals into
the radio device. This will prevent the radio device
from receiving data through the serial port.
WAKE - When fitted, the radio device will automatically
power-up when the UART DTR signal is driven high.
This allows a convenient mechanism for an external
host computer to switch on the module. The DTR
signal must be driven low or negative before the
module can be switched off under software
command.
Note: If DTR is not driven low or negative and the host
computer commands the module to shut-down, the
DTR signal in its high state will immediately indicate
that the module is to switch back on.
BAUD -When fitted, this jumper allows the serial port driver IC
to operate at baud rates in excess of 250 kbps and
up to 1 Mbps.
Note: There will be an increase in current
consumption with this option selected.
SHDN - When fitted, the serial port IC is forced into a low
power state with the internal transmitters disabled. In
the shut-down state the radio device will still receive
commands but any transmission attempts from the
radio device will be blocked by the serial port IC.
Notes:
In the shut-down state all the hardware flow control
transmitters will be switched off. In order to send
commands to the radio device in this state, the host
computer must also have hardware flow control
switched off.
There is a second jumper labelled ’SHDN’ which is in
the Power Supply area (adjacent to U7).

from the radio device.
BUZZER Fitted When fitted, this link enables the DK buzzer driver
circuitry.
Jumper Default Description
DSR Fitted Connects serial port flow control signal DSR between
UART connector X4 and radio device.
Note: DSR is a dual function signal from the radio
device. When this signal is being used for any other
purpose (e.g. Keypad or application specific through
X2 or X3), this jumper must be removed.
RI Fitted Connects serial port control signal RI between UART
connector X4 and radio device.
Note: RI is a dual function signal from the radio
device. When this signal is being used for any other
purpose (e.g. Keypad or application specific through
X2 or X3), this jumper must be removed.
DTR Fitted Connects serial port flow control signal DTR between
UART connector X4 and radio device.
Note: DTR is a dual function signal from the radio
device. When this signal is being used for any other
purpose (e.g. Keypad or application specific through
X2 or X3), this jumper must be removed.
CTS Fitted Connects serial port flow control signal CTS between
UART connector X4 and radio device.
Note: CTS is a dual function signal from the radio
device. When this signal is being used for any other
purpose (e.g. Keypad or application specific through
X2 or X3), this jumper must be removed.
RTS Fitted Connects serial port flow control signal RTS between
UART connector X4 and radio device.
Note: RTS is a dual function signal from the radio
device. When this signal is being used for any other
purpose (e.g. application specific I/O through X2 or
X3), this jumper must be removed.

DCD Fitted Connects serial port control signal DCD between
UART connector X4 and radio device.
Note: DCD is a dual function signal from the radio
device. When this signal is being used for any other
purpose (e.g. Keypad or application specific through
X2 or X3), this jumper must be removed.
TD Fitted Connects serial port Transmit Data signal TD between
UART connector X4 and radio device.
Note: It is only valid to have one Transmit Data buffer
in the circuit. If TD is driven by the application
through connector X2 or X3, this jumper must be
removed to avoid circuit conflicts.
LED Fitted When fitted, this enables the STATUS LED to be
illuminated by signal LED from the radio device.
Note: LED is a dual function signal in the radio
device. When this signal is being used for any other
purpose (e.g. application specific I/O through X2 or
X3), it is recommended that this jumper is removed to
avoid circuit conflicts or unexpected circuit
behavior.
SCL - When fitted, connects the I2C clock signal from the
radio device to the GPIO interface IC, U5.
Note: Use the address selectors A0-A2 to set GPIO
interface I2C address. Ensure that the selected
address is unique to all I2C devices using SCL and
SDA from radio device.
DATA -When fitted, connects the I2C data signal from the
radio device to the GPIO interface IC, U5.
Note: Use the address selectors A0-A2 to set GPIO
interface I2C address. Ensure that the selected
address is unique to all I2C devices using SCL and
SDA from radio device.
A0 - When fitted, connects address pin A0 of IC U5 to
logic high. When the jumper is not fitted, address A0
is held to logic low by the DK.
Note: IC U5 address range is 0x70 to 0x7F.
A1 -When fitted, connects address pin A1 of IC U5 to
logic high. When the jumper is not fitted, address A1
is held to logic low by the DK.
Note: IC U5 address range is 0x70 to 0x7F.
A2 - When fitted, connects address pin A2 of IC U5 to
logic high. When the jumper is not fitted, address A2
is held to logic low by the DK.

All switches are mounted on the front panel of the developer’s box.
Switch Default Description
Vcc
(SW1)
N/C This switch chooses the voltage source that the radio
device will use. The default state N/C makes the
voltage path to the radio device open circuit.
Choosing INT connects the internal +3.6V DC supply
to the VCC pins of the radio device. Choosing EXT
connects the external +3.6V DC supply to the VCC
pins of the radio device.
Note: The external +3.6V DC supply is a user provided
source through the EXT VCC connector.
ON/OFF
(SW2)
- This is a momentary push-button switch to enable the
user to manually turn the module on and off. The
radio device is turned on by pressing and holding the
ON/OFF switch for at least 1 second before
releasing.The radio device is turned off by pressing
and holding the ON/OFF switch for at least 2 second
before releasing. The module will detect the OFF
request and the software will perform all the
necessary shutdown tasks (e.g. SIM power
management and network detach) before the VIO
LED is extinguished.
Note: In the event of the radio device locking up and
being unrecoverable under software control, the ON/
OFF switch provides an alternative HARD SHUTDOWN
control. To initiate the HARD SHUTDOWN feature press
and hold the ON/OFF switch for at least 10 seconds or
until the module powers down and VIO LED is no
longer illuminated.

This connector allows access to the SIM
interface signals. These test points are
connected in parallel with SIM connector ’X5’.
Note: If this header is used to attach to an
external SIM, an internal SIM fitted into
connector ’X5’ must be removed.
KEYPAD C0, C1, C2,
C3, C4, R1,
R2, R3, R4
This header provides all the connections
required to connect to a standard 20 key (5
columns x 4 rows) keypad matrix. ’C#’ are output
drivers to connect to keypad columns. ’R#’ are
input receivers to connect to keypad rows.
Note: C0 is a virtual keypad column driver and is
simply a connection to ground. C0 therefore
does not appear on the radio device as a
keypad driver output. The keypad interface
recognises when the rows (R1-R4) are
connected logic ’low’. If this is registered while
the columns (C1-C4) are idle then it is accepted
that the ’active’ column is C0 (column zero).
I2C GPIO P0, P1, P2, P3,
P4, P5, P6, P7,
INT
This header provides a general purpose I/O port
from the I2C to GPIO interface. P0-P7 are the 8
bits of the data port. INT is the interrupt output of
the interface. The interface IC which drives
these signals is part number PCF8574AT from
Philips Semiconductor.
ATMS ATMS In addition to being able to feed in a
microphone signal from an alternative source,
this pin can be used to answer an incoming
telephone call. By momentarily connecting this
signal to GND when an incoming call is ’ringing’,
the radio device will ’answer’ the call.
GND GND These two headers can be used as the signal
reference ground for test and measurement.

using a jumper link on the PCM header.
Note: The PCM links to enable analog audio
are fitted by default but may have been
removed during customer development. There
will be no analog audio without these links.
Please check carefully.

EXT VCC 3 pin
Circular
This connector carries three signals:
EXT VCC (1);
CHG_IN (3);
GND (2).
(These signals are wired into PCB
holes labelled EXT, CHG, GND
respectively).EXT VCC must be a
+3.6VDC source capable of
supplying up to 2.0A. This can be
a battery source.CHG_IN can be
a +5.0VDC source capable of
supplying 600mA maximum.GND is the ground
reference to be used by the external supplies.
Note: If battery charging is enabled the
charging source must be capable of supplying
the required charging current but the charging
current must not exceed 500mA.

LED
(Colour)
Location Description
Status
(Green)
Front Panel This LED is enabled by fitting the “LED”
jumper link (located between the internal
power supply and the keypad header).The
LED is driven on by a signal from the radio
device pin 33 (LED/IO6).When the radio
device connection “LED/IO6” is configured
as the LED driver this LED signifies the module
and network status as follows;
ON - Module cannot connect to a network.
FLASHING - MODULE has SIM fitted and is
locked onto a valid GSM network.
VIO
(Yellow)
Front Panel This LED is illuminated when the radio device
is switched on. The module outputs
+2.75VDC on signal VIO (pin 34).
SRVC
(Red)
PCB When the SRVC jumper link is fitted and the
DK has +3.6VDC power, this LED illuminates
to indicate that SERVICE mode is activated.
3V6
(Green)
PCB When the DK has +3.6VDC power, this LED
will illuminate.
Note: The DK +3.6V and the radio device
VCC inputs are connected through switch
VCC (SW1) on the front panel. The 3V6 LED
does NOT indicate that the module has
power applied to its VCC connections.
