2) Let's assume you need to drive the ON_OFF pin directly with an ON/OFF
button:
3.2.2.
Turning Off the CC864-Dual Module
You can turn off the device with either a software command or a hardware shutdown
circuit.
When the device is shut down either way, it issues to the network a detach request
with the information that the device is not reachable any more.
Warning: Never disconnect power before the power off procedure is completed. If
you do, this may cause severe damage the module primarily due to the possibility of
memory corruption that renders the module inoperable.
3.2.2.1.
Hardware Shutdown
To turn off the CC864-Dual module the ON/OFF Pin must be tied for at least one
second, and then released.
The same circuitry and timing as for power on must be used for be used for powering
off the module.
The device shuts down after you release the ON_OFF Pin.
3.2.2.2.
Software Shutdown
Please refer the “Software User Guide” for information on how to shut down the
module using AT-commands.
3.2.3.
Hardware Reset
To perform hardware reset and reboot the module, the RESET pin must be tied low
for at least 200 milliseconds, and then released.

The following figure shows a sample circuit to accomplish this operation:
TIP: A hardware reset circuit should be always implemented on the host board but
the host should use it as an emergency reset procedure only.
Example
Let's assume you need to drive the RESET# pad with a totem pole output of a +3/5 V
microcontroller (uP_OUT2):
3.3.
Power Supply
The electrical design of the power supply strongly depends on the power source from
which the power is drained. We will discuss the following three common categories:
•
+5V input source supply (typically PC internal regulator output)
•
+12V input source supply (typically automotive)
•
Battery source supply

80pppSTzzzzza Rev. 0.4 - dd/mm/yy
3.3.1.
+5V Input Source Power Supply Design Guidelines
The desired output for the power supply is 3.8V, hence there’s not a big difference
between the input source and the desired output and a linear regulator can be used. .
When using a linear regulator, a proper heat sink may be required in order to
dissipate the heat.
A bypass low ESR capacitor of adequate capacity must be provided in order to cut
the current absorption peaks close to the CC864-Dual module, a 100µF tantalum (or
equivalent) capacitor is suited for this purpose.
Make sure the low ESR capacitor on the power supply output (usually a tantalum) is
rated at least 10V.
A protection diode should be inserted close to the power input, in order to protect the
module from power polarity inversion.
A typical example of a linear regulator with 5V input is:
3.3.2.
+12V Input Source Power Supply Design Guidelines
The desired output for the power supply is 3.8V, and due to the large difference
between the input voltage and the desired output, a linear regulator is not well suited
and should not be used. A switching power supply is preferred because of its better
efficiency with the 2A peak current load drawn by the CC864-Dual module.
When using a switching regulator, a 500 KHz or more switching frequency regulator
is preferable because of its smaller inductor size and faster transient response. This
allows the regulator to respond quickly to current peaks.

80pppSTzzzzza Rev. 0.4 - dd/mm/yy
In any case the frequency and switching design selection is related to the application
to be developed due to the fact the switching frequency could also generate EMC
interferences and the application must also take this into account.
For a car PB battery the input voltage can rise up to about 16V and when choosing
components, all components in the power supply must withstand this voltage.
Power supplies for automotive use are complicated and have to take a number of
issues into account, such as: over voltage, reverse polarity, cranking, load dump
booster batteries, forced charging etc
A bypass low ESR capacitor of adequate capacity must be provided in order to cut
the current absorption peaks; a 100µF tantalum (or equivalent) capacitor is suitable
for this purpose.
Make sure the low ESR capacitor on the power supply output (usually a tantalum) is
rated at least 10V.
For car applications a spike protection diode must be inserted close to the power
input, in order to clean the supply from spikes and a specific automotive grade
regulator is recommended.
A protection diode (which can be the same diode as in spike protection) must be
inserted close to the power input in order to save the CC864-Dual module from
power polarity inversion.
A typical example of a switching regulator with 12V input is:
3.3.3.
Battery Source Power Supply Design Guidelines
The desired nominal output for the power supply is 3.8V and the maximum voltage
allowed is 4.2V, so that a single 3.7V lithium-ion cell battery type is ideal to supply
the power to the module.
Three regular battery cells (Ni/Cd or Ni/MH 3.6V nom. battery types or 4V PB types)
must not be used directly because their maximum voltage can rise over the absolute
maximum voltage for the CC864-Dual module and damage it.

80pppSTzzzzza Rev. 0.4 - dd/mm/yy
Warning: DO NOT USE any Ni-Cd, Ni-MH or Pb battery types directly connected to
the module! Their use can lead to overvoltage and damage the module. USE ONLY
Li-Ion battery types.
A bypass low (usually a 100uF tantalum) ESR capacitor with adequate capacity must
be provided in order to cut the current absorption peaks. Make sure the low ESR
capacitor (usually a tantalum) is rated at least 10V.A protection diode must be
inserted close to the power input, in order to protect the module from voltage polarity

The suggested battery capacity is from 500mAh to 1000mAh.

Battery Charge Control Circuitry Design Guideline
The CC864-Dual module provides support circuitry for charging a lithium-ion battery,
utilizing four firmware-controlled charging modes:
•
Trickle charging
•
Constant current charging
•
Constant voltage charging
•
Pulsed charging
Battery voltage, external supply voltage, and total detected current measurements
are available to the module firmware through the analog multiplexer, which allow the
module firmware to monitor charging parameters, make decisions, and control the
charging process.
Note: This process is completely transparent to the application and is controlled by
the module firmware; it is described below for completeness and battery selection
purposes only.
•
Charging begins with trickle charging, which limits the current and avoids
pulling the VDD down.
•
Once a minimum battery voltage is established using trickle charging,
constant current charging is enabled by the firmware in order to charge the
battery quickly (this mode is sometimes called fast charging).
•
When the Li-ion battery approaches its target voltage (through constant
current charging), the charge is completed using either constant voltage or
pulse charging.
Further description of all charging modes is provided in the sections below.
The following figure illustrates the main battery charging sequence.

3.3.4.1.
Trickle Charging
The module firmware and power management circuitry provides trickle charging of
the main battery when powered from VDD.
This mode is used by the module to raise a severely depleted battery’s voltage to a
level sufficient to begin fast charging.
Attempting fast charging with a high-current supply on a deeply discharged battery,
would cause the battery do draw excessive current, pull the VDD voltage down, and
possibly cause a module malfunction or shutdown due to an under-voltage lockout
condition.
In order to avoid these problems, the module provides a constant, low-current
charging mode: trickle charging.
Trickle charging is used by the module firmware until the main battery reaches a
predefined desired threshold, which is usually about 3.0V for Li-ion batteries.
The threshold varies with battery type and application, so there is no predefined
value implemented in the detection circuits.
The firmware stops the trickle charging based on battery voltage measurements and
battery type.

80pppSTzzzzza Rev. 0.4 - dd/mm/yy
3.3.4.2.
Constant Current Charging
The Module firmware supports constant current charging of the main battery.
During constant current charging the battery is charged with a constant current of
600mA.
As the battery voltage rises and approaches its desired value of 4.2V the charging
current begins to decrease, indicating the end of constant current charging and the
beginning of residual charging.
The charging firmware monitors the voltage and takes the appropriate action to
terminate the constant current charging mode. Charging continues with residual
charging (either constant voltage or pulsed).
Note: In this application the charging firmware limits the charging current to 600mA.
3.3.4.3.
Constant Voltage Charging
Once constant current charging of the lithium-ion battery is finished, the charging
continues using either constant voltage or pulsed techniques.
Constant voltage charging is similar to the constant current mode:
The battery voltage is constant while the charging current decreases exponentially
for the remaining charging process.
The end of the constant voltage charging is typically detected by allowing voltage
operation for a pre-determined duration beyond crossing the VBATDET threshold in
the internal charger IC (lasting for one and a half or two hours).
The firmware limits the predetermined duration, not allowing charging to continue
indefinitely, because charging for too long can damage the battery.
3.3.4.4.
Pulse Charging
Pulse charging is implemented by switching the pass transistor on the internal
charger IC on and off.
The module and external electronics must draw minimal current so the battery’s open
circuit voltage can be measured accurately during the off interval.
Pulse charging, compared to constant voltage charging:
•
Provides better voltage accuracy
•
Reaches full charge more quickly
•
Dissipates less transistor power when switching from constant current
charging
Pulse charging is enabled through firmware control, and it uses the same hardware
as constant current or constant voltage charging, but repetitiously opens and closes
the pass transistor to deliver current pulses to the battery
One purpose of pulsed operation is to check and recheck the battery’s open circuit
voltage, confirming a full charger before terminating the process.

Thermal Design Guidelines
The thermal design for the module and its power supply needs to take the following
parameters into account:
Average current consumption during transmission at
Max level (23~24dBm)
Average current consumption during transmission at
Min level (-50dBm)
Average current during Idle mode
(when receiver circuit is on, transmitter circuit is off)
Average current during sleep mode
when receiver/transmitter circuits are off, only baseband
circuit is on)
Average current during hibernation mode
(All circuits are off except alarm circuit)
Cellular : 500mA
PCS : 580mA
Cellular : 130mA
PCS : 140mA
100mA
1mA
2.6uA
NOTE: The average current consumption during transmissions depends on the
power level at which the device is requested to transmit by the network.
Hence, the average current consumption varies significantly.
Considering the very low current during idle and sleep time, especially when the
power saving function is enabled, from a thermal point of view ,it is possible to
estimate that the device only draws significant current during calls.
An Example
If the device stays in transmission for a few minutes and then remains idle for an
hour, the power supply always has the time to cool down between the calls. The heat
sink can then be smaller than the calculated 700mA maximum RMS current, or there
can be no heat sink (simple chip package).
In average network conditions, the device is requested to transmit at a lower power
level than the maximum, and thus the current consumption is less than 700mA.
For these reasons, the thermal design is rarely a concern and the using the ground
plane where the power supply chip is placed as the heat sink can be enough to
ensure good thermal conditions and avoid overheating.
The generated heat is primarily conducted to the ground plane under the module and
the ambient air by convection, so you must ensure that your application can dissipate
the heat as required.
3.3.6.
Power Supply PCB Layout Guidelines
Telit recommends that the power supply for the CC864-DUAL module to be designed
to meet the higher demands of a GSM/UMTS module.
The power supply will be slightly over-dimensioned for a CDMA module, but will allow
for the easy transition to another technology, if need be (GSM/UMTS 2A vs. CDMA
1A peak current consumption).

CC864-DUAL Hardware User Guide
80pppSTzzzzza Rev. 0.4 - dd/mm/yy
The power supply implementation must have a low ESR capacitor on the output to
smooth the current peaks and should include a protection diode on the power supply
input to protect the supply from spikes and polarity inversion.
The placement of these components is crucial for the correct operation of the circuitry
and application.
A misplaced component can be ineffective or even decrease the power supply
performance:
•
The Bypass low ESR capacitor must be placed close to the module power
input pads or in the case the power supply is a switching type it can be placed
close to the inductor to cut the ripple provided the PCB trace from the
capacitor to the module is wide enough to ensure no voltage drops during the
transmission current peaks.
•
The protection diode must be placed close to the input connector where the
power source is drained.
•
The PCB traces from the input connector to the power regulator IC must be
wide enough to ensure no voltage drops occur during the transmission
current peaks.
(GSM/UMTS specific consideration) Note that this is not made in order to
save power loss but especially to avoid the voltage drops on the power line at
the current peaks frequency of 216 Hz that will reflect on all the components
connected to that supply, introducing a noise floor at the burst base frequency.
For this reason, while a voltage drop of 300-400 mV may be acceptable from
the power loss point of view, the same voltage drop may not be acceptable
from the noise point of view.
If your application doesn't have audio interface but only uses the data feature
of the GSM /UMTS Wireless Modem, then this noise may not be so disturbing
and power supply layout design can be more forgiving.
•
The PCB traces to module and the Bypass capacitor must be wide enough to
ensure no significant voltage drops occur during the GSM 2A/CDMA 1A
current peaks.
This is for the same reason as the previous point. Try to keep this trace as
short as possible.
•
The PCB traces connecting the Switching output to the inductor and the
switching diode must be kept as short as possible by placing the inductor and
the diode very close to the power switching IC (only for switching power
supply). This is done in order to reduce the radiated field (noise) at the
switching frequency (usually 100-500 kHz).
•
The use of a good common ground plane is suggested.
•
The placement of the power supply on the board should be done in such a
way to guarantee that the high current return paths in the ground plane are
not overlapped to any noise sensitive circuitry as the microphone
amplifier/buffer or earphone amplifier.
The power supply input cables/traces should be kept separate from noise sensitive
lines such as microphone/earphone cables/traces.

Logic level Specification
The CC864-Dual module serial port is the core of the interface between the module
and the host hardware.
Depending on the serial port type of the host hardware, a level translator circuit may
be needed for the system to function properly. The only configuration that does not
need a level translation is interfacing to a 2.8V UART.
On the CC864-Dual module there are two UART ports, one is for UART1 and the
other is for R-UIM/UART2. It differs from the standard PC RS232C in signal polarity
(where RS232 is reversed) and in levels.
Where not specifically stated, the interface circuits work at 2.8V CMOS logic levels.
The following tables show the logic level specifications for the CC864-Dual module
interface circuits:

UART1 - Serial Interfaces
The CC864-Dual module is capable of providing up to two universal asynchronous
(UART) ports.
The UART can also be used as the module’s serial data port for test and debug, and
can support additional interface functions such as an external keypad or ringer.
The UART1 can also be used to load and/or upgrade system firmware (in addition to
the USB port).
Default setting is UART1 for the AT-commands and UART2 for R-UIM

(here named TXD/Receive line) of the module’s serial port and vice versa for RXD.
TIP: For a minimum implementation, the TXD and RXD lines only can be connected,
the other lines can be left open, provided a software flow control is implemented.
3.6.1.
RS232C Interface and Level Translation
In order to interface the module with a PC com port or a RS232 (EIA/TIA-232)
application, a level translator is required.
The RS232 UART 16450, 16550, 16650 and 16750 chipsets accept signals with
lower levels on the RS232 side (EIA/TIA-562), allowing for a lower voltagemultiplying ratio on the level translator.
Note that the negative signal voltage must be less than 0 V so that some form of
level translation is always required.
The simplest way to translate the levels and invert the signal is by using a single chip
level translator.
There are several of them, differing in the number of driver and receiver and in the
levels.
NOTE: Always make sure you use a true RS232 level translator and not a translator
for RS485 or any other standard.
By convention, the driver is the level translator from the 0-3V UART level to the
RS232 level, while the receiver is the translator from RS232 level to 0-3V UART.
In order to translate the whole set of control lines of the UART you need five drivers
and three receivers.
The figure below shows an example of level translation circuitry:

5V UART Level Translation
If the host application uses a microcontroller with a serial port (UART) that works at a
voltage different from 2.8~3V, a circuitry must be provided to adapt the different
levels of the two signal sets.
As for the RS232 translation, there is a selection of single chip translators, but since
the translation requires very few components, a discrete design can also be used.

transmitter/receiver:

It enables handset independence for the user
•
It can be inserted into any CDMA R-UIM equipped handset, allowing the user

General Design Rules
There are several possible configurations for the audio paths, but the two main types
are balanced and unbalanced microphone configurations.
You are recommended to keep the whole microphone path balanced even if this
means having two wires connecting the microphone instead of one needed in the
unbalanced case.
NOTE: The balanced circuitry is preferred because of its good common mode noise
rejection.
TIP: Keep the analog microphone traces on the PCB and any wires as short as
possible and make sure that the microphone traces on the PCB do not cross or run
parallel to noisy traces (especially power traces).
TIP: If your application requires an unbalanced microphone, keep the traces on the
PCB balanced and unbalance the path as close as possible to the microphone or
wire connector.
TIP: Put a ground trace connected to the ground plane by several vias all around the
microphone lines in order to simulate a shielded trace on the PCB.
The module provides two audio paths in the receive section; only one of the paths
can be active at a time, selectable by the AXE input signal or with an A- command.

of 100pF or less is suggested.
The output power for the differential EAR1 output is typically 50mW for a full-scale

Each microphone pin requires a 2.2K bias resistor. The positive microphone terminal
is connected to the Bias power (1.8V) through one of the 2.2K resistors. The 1.8V
output provides up to 1mA bias current for the microphone. In addition, each

The design of the amplifier should comply with the following guidelines:
•
The input to the amplifier must be taken from the “EAR_HF” audio path of the
module.
•
The amplifier must have a mute control to be used while not in conversation
to eliminate the background noise, and to save power.
•
The power to the amplifier must be decoupled as much as possible from the
CC864-Dual module power supply, by either keeping separate wires or by
placing bypass capacitors of adequate value close to the amplifier power
input Pins.
•
The biasing voltage of the amplifier must be stabilized with low ESR (for
example, a tantalum) capacitor of adequate value.
The figure below shows an example of car kit amplifier schematic.

PCM Interface
The CC864-Dual module can support PCM interface. It can runs at 128kHz ~
2.048Mhz. The PCM interface enables communication with an external CODEC to
support hands-free application. Linear, μ-law, and A-law CODECs are supported by
the PCM interface.

Low Pass Filter Example
The DAC pin drives out the PDM (Pulse Density Modulation) signal. It is a square
wave output.
The application needs an additional RC filter to convert the PDM output to an analog
signal.
The figure below shows an example of Low Pass filter. Final tuning is needed to find
the exact values of resistors and capacitors for the target application.
3.13.
General Purpose I/O
The general purpose I/O Pins can be configured to act in three different ways:
•
Input: Input Pins can only be read. They report the digital value (high or low)
present on the Pin at the read time.
•
Output: output Pins can be written or queried. They can be used to set the
value of the Pin output.
•
Alternate function (internally controlled): An alternate function pin is
internally controlled by the CC864-Dual firmware and acts depending on the
currently selected function.

Warning: TGPIO_22 has 1.8V CMOS level tolerance. This is to be compatible with
the Telit Unified Form Factor.
3.13.1.
Using a GPIO pin as Input
The GPIO pins, when used as input, can be connected to a digital output of another
device to report its status, provided this device has interface levels compatible with
the 2.8V CMOS levels of the GPIO.
3.13.2.
Using a GPIO pin as Output
The GPIO pins, when used as outputs, can drive 2.8V CMOS digital devices or
compatible hardware.
When set as outputs, the pins have a push-pull output and therefore the pull-up
resistor can be omitted.
3.13.3.
TGPIO_03/AUDIO MUTE
This pin can be used to mute audio e.g. when an external audio amplifier is used for
the car kit speaker function.
It is always desirable to have a mute control on the amplifier, in order to turn it off
while the device is not sending signal to the output, so that the amplifier background
noise which may be audible during idle condition is cut off.
3.13.4.
TGPIO_04/RF Transmission Control
When configured as RF transmission controlinput, this pin permits disabling the
transmitter when the GPIO is set to low by the application.
3.13.5.
TGPIO_05/RFTXMON
When configured as RFTMON output, this pin is controlled by the CC864-Dual only.
It is High when the transmitter is active, and Low when the transmitter activity is
completed.

CC864-DUAL Hardware User Guide
80pppSTzzzzza Rev. 0.4 - dd/mm/yy
For example, if a call is started, the line is high during all of the conversation (RF
Transmit) and low after the call is hung up.
3.13.6.
TGPIO_06/ALARM
This pin, when configured as alarm output, is controlled by the CC864-Dual.
It goes high when the alarm starts, and low again after the issue of a dedicated ATcommand.
You can use this output to power up the module itself or the external application at
the alarm time, giving you the possibility to program a timely system wake-up to
perform periodic actions while completely turning off either the application or the
module during sleep periods, considerably reducing power consumption.
Refer to SW User Guide or AT commands Reference Guide for the full description of
this function.
3.13.7.
TGPIO_07/BUZZER
This pin, when configured as buzzer output, is controlled by the module.
It drives a buzzer driver with appropriate square waves, and permits your application
to easily implement the buzzer feature with ringing tones, melody played at the call
incoming, tone playing on SMS incoming, or simply playing a tone or melody when
needed by your application.
The following figure shows an example of the TGPIO_07/BUZZER configuration:

3.13.8.
TGPIO_08/POWER_SAVING
When configured as power saving, the host gives this signal to the module, setting
the module into power saving mode.
This signal is active low.
When the module enters power saving mode, every active items, including the UART
port is turned off, so that current consumption is considerably reduced.
3.13.9.
TGPIO_11/VIBRATOR
When configured as vibrator output, this pin is controlled by the module and it starts
with appropriate square waves.
For a reference, see the Buzzer circuitry in section 3.13.7.
3.13.10.
TGPIO_12/CALL_KEY
When configured as call key, this pin is used to connect outgoing call or to respond to
incoming call.
If automatic answer is disabled, the equivalent AT command is “ATA”.
3.13.11.
TGPIO_13/ACTIVE
When configured as active, this signal is used as a control signal to enable the buffer
between the module and the host.
When the reset procedure and boot sequence is successful, the module drives the
signal active high, and its output is low when the module is powered off.
Therefore, an external pull-down resistor is needed to define the state at power off if
this feature is used.
Note: Using buffers for most signals (except ON/OFF, RESET, STAT_LED) between
the module and the host to prevent leakage currents from the host (while powered
on) to the module (while powered off) is recommended. Leakage current can cause a
reset failure in the module.

VRTC
The VRTC pin brings out the real time clock supply, which is separated from the rest
of the module’s internal power supply, allowing the RTC to operate when all the other
parts of the devices are turned off.
A backup capacitor can be added to this pin.
The backup capacitor is charged when the module is on, and it supplies power to the
RTC circuit when the module is turned off.

STAT_LED
This pin is an open collector output signal.
The STAT_LED pin status shows information on the network service availability and
Call status.
In the CC864-Dual module, the STAT_LED usually needs an external transistor to
drive an external LED.
Therefore, the status indicated in the following table is reversed with respect to the
pin status.

Development and Testing
In order to assist you with the development of your Telit CC864-Dual module based
application, Telit can supply the EVK2 Evaluation kit with appropriate power supply,
R-UIM card housing, RS232 serial port level translator, direct UART connection, USB
connection, Handset, Headset and Hands-free(car kit) audio and antenna.
The EVK2 provides a fully functional reference solution for a data/phone application.
The standard serial RS232 9-pin interface connector and USB interface provided on
the evaluation kit allow the connection of the EVK2 system to a PC or other DTE.
The development of the application utilizing the Telit CC864-Dual module must use
proper designs of all the interfaces to and from the module (for example, power
supply, audio paths, level translators), otherwise a decrease in the performance will
be introduced or, in the worst case, a faulty design can even lead to an operational
failure of the module.
In order to assist the hardware designer, the EVK2 board presents a series of
different solutions, which cover the most common design requirements on the market,
and which can be easily integrated in the OEM design as building blocks or can be
taken or can be taken as starting points to develop a specific solution.
