The maximum current that can be drained from the ON* pad is 0,1 mA. A simple circuit to do it is: NOTE: don't use any pull up resistor on the ON* line, it is internally pulled up. Using pull up resistor may bring to latch up problems on the GE864-QUAD V2 power regulator and improper power on/off of the module. The line ON* must be connected only in open collector configuration. NOTE: In this document all the lines that are inverted, hence have active low signals are labeled with a name that ends with a "*" . TIP: To check if the device has powered on, the hardware line PWRMON should be monitored. After 900ms the line raised up the device could be considered powered on. ON* Power ON impulse GND R1 R2 Q1

It must stay within the Wide Supply Voltage tolerant range including any drop voltage and overshoot voltage (during the slot tx, for example). NOTE: The Operating Voltage Range MUST never be exceeded also in power off condition; care must be taken in order to fulfill min/max voltage requirement

CFUN=5 full functionality with power saving; module registered on the network can receive incoming calls and SMS RX mode 1 slot in downlink 52,3 2 slot in downlink 65,2 3 slot in downlink 78,6 4 slot in downlink 88,4 GSM Receiving data mode GSM TX and RX mode Min power level 78,1 Max power level 200,1 GSM Sending data mode GPRS (class 10) TX and RX mode Min power level 123,7 Max power level 370,8 GPRS Sending data mode The GSM system is made in a way that the RF transmission is not continuous, else it is packed into bursts at a base frequency of about 216 Hz, the relative current peaks can be as high as about 2A. Therefore the power supply has to be designed in order to withstand with these current peaks without big voltage drops; this means that both the electrical design and the board layout must be designed for this current flow. If the layout of the PCB is not well designed a strong noise floor is generated on the ground and the supply; this will reflect on all the audio paths producing an audible annoying noise at 216 Hz; if the voltage drop during the peak current absorption is too much, then the device may even shutdown as a consequence of the supply voltage drop. TIP: The electrical design for the Power supply should be made ensuring it will be capable of a peak current output of at least 2A. 1 Worst/best case depends on network configuration and is not under module control

We will distinguish them into three categories: • +5V input (typically PC internal regulator output) • +12V input (typically automotive) • Battery 5.3.1.1 + 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. A switching power supply will not be suited because of the low drop out requirements. • When using a linear regulator, a proper heat sink shall be provided in order to dissipate the power generated. • A Bypass low ESR capacitor of adequate capacity must be provided in order to cut the current absorption peaks close to the GE864-QUAD V2, a 100μF tantalum capacitor is usually suited. • Make sure the low ESR capacitor on the power supply output (usually a tantalum one) is rated at least 10V. • A protection diode should be inserted close to the power input, in order to save the GE864-QUAD V2 from power polarity inversion.
GE864-QUAD V2 Hardware User Guide 1vv0300841 Rev.0.1 24/11/09 Reproduction forbidden without Telit Communications S.p.A. written authorization - All Rights Reserved page 23 of 65 An example of linear regulator with 5V input is: 5.3.1.2 + 12V input Source Power Supply Design Guidelines • The desired output for the power supply is 3.8V, hence due to the big difference between the input source and the desired output, a linear regulator is not suited and shall not be used. A switching power supply will be preferable because of its better efficiency especially with the 2A peak current load represented by the GE864-QUAD V2. • When using a switching regulator, a 500kHz or more switching frequency regulator is preferable because of its smaller inductor size and its faster transient response. This allows the regulator to respond quickly to the current peaks absorption. • 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. • For car PB battery the input voltage can rise up to 15,8V and this should be kept in mind when choosing components: all components in the power supply must withstand this voltage. • A Bypass low ESR capacitor of adequate capacity must be provided in order to cut the current absorption peaks, a 100μF tantalum capacitor is usually suited. • Make sure the low ESR capacitor on the power supply output (usually a tantalum one) is rated at least 10V. • For Car applications a spike protection diode should be inserted close to the power input, in order to clean the supply from spikes. • A protection diode should be inserted close to the power input, in order to save the GE864-QUAD V2 from power polarity inversion. This can be the same diode as for spike protection.

The three cells Ni/Cd or Ni/MH 3,6 V Nom. battery types or 4V PB types MUST NOT BE USED DIRECTLY since their maximum voltage can rise over the absolute maximum voltage for the GE864-QUAD V2 and damage it. NOTE: DON'T USE any Ni-Cd, Ni-MH, and Pb battery types directly connected with GE864-QUAD V2. Their use can lead to overvoltage on the GE864-QUAD V2 and damage it. USE ONLY Li-Ion battery types. • A Bypass low ESR capacitor of adequate capacity must be provided in order to cut the current absorption peaks, a 100μF tantalum capacitor is usually suited. • Make sure the low ESR capacitor (usually a tantalum one) is rated at least 10V. • A protection diode should be inserted close to the power input, in order to save the GE864-QUAD V2 from power polarity inversion. Otherwise the battery connector should be done in a way to avoid polarity inversions when connecting the battery. • The battery capacity must be at least 500mAh in order to withstand the current peaks of 2A; the suggested capacity is from 500mAh to 1000mAh.
GE864-QUAD V2 Hardware User Guide 1vv0300841 Rev.0.1 24/11/09 Reproduction forbidden without Telit Communications S.p.A. written authorization - All Rights Reserved page 26 of 65 5.3.2 Thermal Design Guidelines The thermal design for the power supply heat sink should be done with the following specifications: • Average current consumption during transmission @PWR level max: 500mA • Average current consumption during transmission @ PWR level min: 100mA • Average current during Power Saving (CFUN=5): 4mA • Average current during idle (Power Saving disabled) 24mA NOTE: The average consumption during transmissions depends on the power level at which the device is requested to transmit by the network. The average current consumption hence varies significantly. Considering the very low current during idle, especially if Power Saving function is enabled, it is possible to consider from the thermal point of view that the device absorbs current significantly only during calls. If we assume that the device stays into transmission for short periods of time (let's say few minutes) and then remains for a quite long time in idle (let's say one hour), then the power supply has always the time to cool down between the calls and the heat sink could be smaller than the calculated one for 500mA maximum RMS current, or even could be the simple chip package (no heat sink). Moreover in the average network conditions the device is requested to transmit at a lower power level than the maximum and hence the current consumption will be less than the 500mA, being usually around 150mA. For these reasons the thermal design is rarely a concern and the simple ground plane where the power supply chip is placed can be enough to ensure a good thermal condition and avoid overheating. For the heat generated by the GE864-QUAD V2, you can consider it to be during transmission 1W max during CSD/VOICE calls and 2W max during class10 GPRS upload. This generated heat will be mostly conducted to the ground plane under the GE864-QUAD V2; you must ensure that your application can dissipate it.

The placement of these components is crucial for the correct working of the circuitry. A misplaced component can be useless or can even decrease the power supply performances. • The Bypass low ESR capacitor must be placed close to the Telit GE864-QUAD V2 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 GE864-QUAD V2 is wide enough to ensure a dropless connection even during the 2A 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 when the 2A current peaks are absorbed. 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 the 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 Telit GE864-QUAD V2, then this noise is not so disturbing and power supply layout design can be more forgiving. • The PCB traces to the GE864-QUAD V2 and the Bypass capacitor must be wide enough to ensure no significant voltage drops occur when the 2A current peaks are absorbed. This is for the same reason as 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 (100-500 kHz usually). • 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 should be kept separate from noise sensitive lines such as microphone/earphone cables.

In the case that the antenna is not directly developed on the same PCB, hence directly connected at the antenna pad of the GE864-QUAD V2, then a PCB line is needed in order to connect with it or with its connector.

End-Users must be provided with transmitter operation conditions for satisfying RF exposure compliance. OEM integrators must ensure that the end user has no manual instructions to remove or install the GE864-QUAD V2 module. Antennas used for this OEM module must not exceed 1.4dBi @900, 3dBi @1800, 1.4dBi @850 and 3dBi @1900 gain for mobile and fixed operating configurations. 6.2 GSM Antenna - PCB line Guidelines • Ensure that the antenna line impedance is 50 ohm; • Keep the antenna line on the PCB as short as possible, since the antenna line loss shall be less than 0,3 dB; • Antenna line must have uniform characteristics, constant cross section, avoid meanders and abrupt curves; • Keep, if possible, one layer of the PCB used only for the Ground plane; • Surround (on the sides, over and under) the antenna line on PCB with Ground, avoid having other signal tracks facing directly the antenna line track; • The ground around the antenna line on PCB has to be strictly connected to the Ground Plane by placing vias once per 2mm at least; • Place EM noisy devices as far as possible from GE864-QUAD V2 antenna line; • Keep the antenna line far away from the GE864-QUAD V2 power supply lines; • If you have EM noisy devices around the PCB hosting the GE864-QUAD V2, such as fast switching ICs, take care of the shielding of the antenna line by burying it inside the layers of PCB and surround it with Ground planes, or shield it with a metal frame cover. • If you don't have EM noisy devices around the PCB of GE864-QUAD V2, by using a strip-line on the superficial copper layer for the antenna line, the line attenuation will be lower than a buried one;

Whenever this signal is pulled low, the GE864-QUAD V2 is reset. When the device is reset it stops any operation. After the release of the reset GE864-QUAD V2 is unconditionally shut down, without doing any detach operation from the network where it is registered. This behaviour is not a proper shut down because any GSM device is requested to issue a detach request on turn off. For this reason the Reset signal must not be used to normally shutting down the device, but only as an emergency exit in the rare case the device remains stuck waiting for some network response. The RESET is internally controlled on start-up to achieve always a proper power-on reset sequence, so there's no need to control this pin on start-up. It may only be used to reset a device already on that is not responding to any command. NOTE: do not use this signal to power off the GE864-QUAD V2. Use the ON/OFF signal to perform this function or the AT#SHDN command. Reset Signal Operating levels: Signal Min Max RESET Input high 2.0V* 2.2V RESET Input low 0V 0.2V * this signal is internally pulled up so the pin can be left floating if not used. If unused, this signal may be left unconnected. If used, then it must always be connected with an open collector transistor, to permit to the internal circuitry the power on reset and under voltage lockout functions.

The only configuration that doesn't need a level translation is the 2.8V UART. The serial port on the GE864-QUAD V2 is a +2.8V UART with all the 7 RS232 signals. It differs from the PC-RS232 in the signal polarity (RS232 is reversed) and levels. The levels for the GE864-QUAD V2 UART are the CMOS levels: Absolute Maximum Ratings -Not Functional Parameter Min Max Input level on any digital pad when on -0.3V +3.1V Input voltage on analog pads when on-0.3V +3.0 V Operating Range - Interface levels (2.8V CMOS) Level Min Max Input high level VIH 2.1V 3.1V Input low level VIL 0V 0.5V Output high level VOH 2.2V 3.0V Output low level VOL 0V 0.35V

TIP: For a minimum implementation, only the TXD and RXD lines can be connected, the other lines can be left open provided a software flow control is implemented.

This level translator must  invert the electrical signal in both directions  change the level from 0/3V to +15/-15V Actually, the RS232 UART 16450, 16550, 16650 & 16750 chipsets accept signals with lower levels on the RS232 side (EIA/TIA-562) , allowing for a lower voltage-multiplying ratio on the level translator. Note that the negative signal voltage must be less than 0V and hence some sort 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 a multitude of them, differing in the number of driver and receiver and in the levels (be sure to get a true RS232 level translator not a RS485 or other standards). 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 will need:  5 driver  3 receiver The digital input lines working at 2.8V CMOS have an absolute maximum input voltage of 3.0V; therefore the level translator IC shall not be powered by the +3.8V supply of the module. Instead, it must be powered from a +2.7V / +2.9V (dedicated) power supply. This is because in this way the level translator IC outputs on the module side (i.e. GE865 inputs) will work at +3.8V interface levels, damaging the module inputs. NOTE: In order to be able to do in circuit reprogramming of the GE864 firmware, the serial port on the Telit GE864 shall be available for translation into RS232 and either it's controlling device shall be placed into tristate, disconnected or as a gateway for the serial data when module reprogramming occurs. Only RXD, TXD, GND and the On/off module turn on pad are required to the reprogramming of the module, the other lines are unused. All applicator shall include in their design such a way of reprogramming the GE864.

In this case Vin has to be set with a value compatible with the logic levels of the module. (Max 2.9V DC). In this configuration the SP3282EB will adhere to EIA/TIA-562 voltage levels instead of RS232 (-5 ~ +5V)

Another level adapting method could be done using a standard RS232 Transceiver (MAX3237EAI) adding some resistors to adapt the levels on the GE865 Input lines. NOTE: In this case has to be taken in account the length of the lines on the application to avoid problems in case of High-speed rates on RS232. The RS232 serial port lines are usually connected to a DB9 connector with the following layout: 8.3 UART level

As for the RS232 translation there are a multitude of single chip translators. For example a possible translator circuit for a 5V TRANSMITTER/RECEIVER can be: TIP: This logic IC for the level translator and 2.8V pull-ups (not the 5V one) can be powered directly from PWRMON line of the GE864-QUAD V2. Note that the TC7SZ07AE has open drain output, therefore the resistor R2 is mandatory. TO TELIT MODULE
GE864-QUAD V2 Hardware User Guide 1vv0300841 Rev.0.1 24/11/09 Reproduction forbidden without Telit Communications S.p.A. written authorization - All Rights Reserved page 39 of 65 NOTE: The UART input line TXD (rx_uart) of the GE864-QUAD V2 is NOT internally pulled up with a resistor, so there may be the need to place an external 47KΩ pull-up resistor, either the DTR (dtr_uart) and RTS (rts_uart) input lines are not pulled up internally, so an external pull-up resistor of 47KΩ may be required. A power source of the internal interface voltage corresponding to the 2.8VCMOS high level is available at the PWRMON pin on the connector, whose absolute maximum output current is 1mA. A maximum of 9 resistors of 47 KΩ pull-up can be connected to the PWRMON pin, provided no other devices are connected to it and the pulled-up lines are GE864-QUAD V2 input lines connected to open collector outputs in order to avoid latch-up problems on the GE864-QUAD V2. Care must be taken to avoid latch-up on the GE864-QUAD V2 and the use of this output line to power electronic devices shall be avoided, especially for devices that generate spikes and noise such as switching level translators, micro controllers, failure in any of these condition can severely compromise the GE864-QUAD V2 functionality. NOTE: The input lines working at 2.8VCMOS can be pulled-up with 47KΩ resistors that can be connected directly to the PWRMON line provided they are connected as in this example. NO OTHER devices than those suggested should be powered with the PWRMON line; otherwise the module functionality may be compromised. It is important to consider that the added circuit must have consumption lower than 1mA. In case of reprogramming of the module has to be considered the use of the RESET line to start correctly the activity. The preferable configuration is having an external supply for the buffer.

Only one of the two paths can be active at a time, selectable by AXE hardware line or by AT command. You must keep in mind the different audio characteristics of the transmit blocks when designing: The “MIC_MT” audio path should be used for handset function, while the “MIC_HF” audio path is suited for hands-free function (car kit). TIP: being the microphone circuitry the more noise sensitive, its design and layout must be done with particular care. Both microphone paths are balanced and the OEM circuitry should be balanced designed to reduce the common mode noise typically generated on the ground plane. However also an unbalanced circuitry can be used for particular OEM application needs. TIP: due to the difference in the echo canceller type, the “Mic_MT” audio path is suited for Handset applications, while the “Mic_HF”audio path is suited for hands-free function (car kit). The Earphone applications should be made using the “Mic_HF” audio path but DISABLING the echo canceller by software AT command. If the echo canceller is left active with the Earphone, then some echo might be introduced by the echo cancel algorithm.

If the digital output of the device to be connected with the GPIO input pad has interface levels different from the 2.8V CMOS, then it can be buffered with an open collector transistor with a 47K pull up to 2.8V. 10.3 Using a GPIO Pad as OUTPUT The GPIO pads, when used as outputs, can drive 2.8V CMOS digital devices or compatible hardware. When set as outputs, the pads have a push-pull output and therefore the pull-up resistor may be omitted. 10.4 Using the RF Transmission Control GPIO4 The GPIO4 pin, when configured as RF Transmission Control Input, permits to disable the Transmitter when the GPIO is set to Low by the application. In the design is necessary to add a pull up resistor (47K to PWRMON);

The TXMON pin behaviour can be configured using the AT command. # TXMONMODE Refer to AT Commands Reference Guide 80000ST10025a for the full description of this command. For example, if a call is started, the line will be HIGH during all the conversation and it will be again LOW after hanged up. The line rises up 300ms before first TX burst and will became again LOW from 500ms to 1sec after last TX burst. 10.6 Using the Alarm Output GPIO6 The GPIO6 pad, when configured as Alarm Output, is controlled by the GE864-QUAD V2 module and will rise when the alarm starts and fall after the issue of a dedicated AT command. This output can be used to power up the GE864-QUAD V2 controlling microcontroller or application at the alarm time, giving you the possibility to program a timely system wake-up to achieve some periodic actions and completely turn off either the application and the GE864-QUAD V2 during sleep periods, dramatically reducing the sleep consumption to few μA. In battery-powered devices this feature will greatly improve the autonomy of the device. NOTE: During RESET the line is set to HIGH logic level. 10.7 Using the Buzzer Output GPIO7 The GPIO7 pad, when configured as Buzzer Output, is controlled by the GE864-QUAD V2 module and will drive with appropriate square waves a Buzzer driver. This permits to your application to easily implement Buzzer feature with ringing tones or melody played at the call incoming, tone playing on SMS incoming or simply playing a tone or melody when needed by your application.
