Environmental Requirements
Temperature Range
Operating
temperature range
-20 ~ +55°C.
This range is defined by 3GPP (the global standard for wireless mobile
communication). Telit guarantees its modules to comply with all the
3GPP requirements and to have full functionality of the module with
in this range.
-40 ~ +85°C.
Telit guarantees full functionality within this range as well. However,
there may possibly be some performance deviations in this extended
range relative to 3GPP requirements, which means that some RF
parameters may deviate from the 3GPP specification in the order of a
few dB. For example: receiver sensitivity or maximum output power
may be slightly degraded.
Even so, all the functionalities, such as call connection, SMS, USB
communication, UART activation etc., will be maintained, and the
effect of such degradations will not lead to malfunction.
Storage and nonoperating
temperature range
2.5.2.
–40°C ~ +85°C
RoHS Compliance
As a part of the Telit corporate policy of environmental protection, the LE910Cx complies with the
RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) directive of the European Union (EU directive
2011/65/EU).

Caution:
GPIO_09 and WCI_RX are used as special HW flags during boot.
If they are used as GPIOs, they must be connected via a 3-state buffer to avoid any undesirable
effect during the boot.
NOTE:
When the UART signals are used as the communication port between the Host and the Modem,
RTS must be connected to GND (on the module side) if flow control is not used.
If the UART port is not used, UART signals can be left floating.
NOTE:
Unless otherwise specified, RESERVED pins must be left unconnected (Floating).
NOTE:
The following pins are unique for the LE910Cx and may not be supported on other (former or
future) xE910 family. Special care must be taken when designing the application board if future

3.4.
Backward Compatibility to xE910 Family
The LE910Cx is a new series in the xE910 form factor
The LE910Cx is fully backward compatible to the previous xE910 in terms of:

Mechanical dimensions

Package and pin-map
To support the extra features and additional interfaces, the LE910Cx introduces more pins
compared to the xE910.
The extra pins of the LE910Cx can be considered as optional if not needed and can be left
unconnected (floating) if not used.
In this case, the new LE910Cx can be safely mounted on existing carrier boards designed for the
previous xE910.
The additional pins of the LE910Cx are shown in Figure 3 (marked as Green)

Hardware Commands
5.1.
Turning on the LE910Cx Module
To turn on the LE910Cx module, the ON/OFF# pad must be asserted low for at least 1 second and
then released.
The maximum current that can be drained from the ON/OFF # pad is 0.1 mA. This pin is internally
pulled up; customers should expect to see ~ 800 mV on the output.
Figure 4 illustrates a simple circuit to power on the module using an inverted buffer output.
Figure 4: Power-on Circuit
NOTE:
Recommended values R2 = 47kΩ, R1 = 10kΩ.
5.2.
Initialization and Activation State
After turning on the LE910Cx module, the LE910Cx is not yet activated because the SW initialization
process of the LE910Cx module is still in process internally. It takes some time to fully complete the
HW and SW initialization of the module.
For this reason, it is impossible to access LE910Cx during the Initialization state.
As shown in Figure 5, the LE910Cx becomes operational (in the Activation state) at least 20 seconds
after the assertion of ON_OFF.
NOTE:
During the Initialization state, AT commands are not available. The DTE host must wait for the
Activation state prior to communicating with the LE910Cx.

NOTE:
SW_RDY signal is available on GPIO_08 (by default GPIO_08 functions as SW_RDY)
NOTE:
To check if the LE910Cx has completely powered on, monitor the SW_RDY signal. When SW_RDY
goes high, the module has completely powered on and is ready to accept AT commands.
NOTE:
During SW initialization of the LE910Cx, the SW configures all pads and interfaces to their desired
mode. When PWRMON goes high, this indicates that the initialization of all I/O pads is completed.
NOTE:
Do not use any pull-up resistor on the ON/OFF# line as it is internally pulled up. Using a pull-up
resistor may cause latch-up problems on the LE910Cx power regulator and improper powering
on/off of the module. The ON/OFF# line must be connected only in an open-collector
configuration.
NOTE:
Active low signals are labeled with a name that ends with "#" or with “_N”
NOTE:
To avoid a back-powering effect, it is recommended to avoid having any HIGH logic level signal
applied to the digital pins of the module when it is powered OFF or during an ON/OFF transition.

Turning OFF the LE910Cx Module
Turning OFF the device can be done in four different ways:

AT#SHDN software command

Hardware shutdown using ON/OFF# pad

Hardware Unconditional Shutdown using the HW_SHUTDOWN_N
When the device is shut down by a software command or a hardware shutdown, it issues a detach
request to the network, informing the network that the device will not be reachable any more.
NOTE:
To check if the device has powered off, monitor the PWRMON hardware line. When PWRMON
goes low, this indicates that the device has powered off.
NOTE:
To avoid a back-powering effect, it is recommended to avoid having any HIGH logic level signal
applied to the digital pins of the module when it is powered OFF or during an ON/OFF transition.
5.3.1.
Shutdown by Software Command
The LE910Cx module can be shut down by a software command.
When a shutdown command is sent, LE910Cx goes into the Finalization state and at the end of the
finalization process shuts down PWRMON.
The duration of the finalization state can differ according to the current situation of the module, so
a value cannot be defined.
Usually, it will take more than 15 seconds from sending a shutdown command until reaching a
complete shutdown. The DTE should monitor the status of PWRMON to observe the actual poweroff.

NOTE:
To check whether the device has powered OFF, monitor the PWRMON hardware line. When
PWRMON goes low, the device has powered OFF.
5.3.2.
Hardware Shutdown
To turn off LE910Cx module, the ON/OFF# pad must be asserted low for at least 2.5 seconds and
then released. Use the same circuitry and timing for power-on.
When the hold time of ON/OFF# is above 2.5 seconds, LE910Cx goes into the Finalization state and
in the end shuts down PWRMON.
The duration of the Finalization state can differ according to the current situation of the module,
so a value cannot be defined.
Usually, it will take more than 15 seconds from sending a shutdown command until reaching a
complete shutdown. DTE should monitor the status of PWRMON to observe the actual power-off.

Unconditional Hardware Shutdown
To unconditionally shut down the LE910Cx module, the HW_SHUTDOWN_N pad must be tied low
for at least 200 milliseconds and then released.
A simple circuit for applying unconditional shutdown is shown below:

regulator and improper functioning of the module. The HW_SHUTDOWN_N line must be
connected only in an open-collector configuration.
NOTE:
The Unconditional Hardware Shutdown must always be implemented on the boards, but the
software must use it only as an emergency exit procedure, and not as a normal power-off
operation.

* Worst/best case current values depend on network configuration - not under module control.
NOTE:
The electrical design for the power supply must ensure a peak current output of at least 2A.
NOTE:
In GSM/GPRS mode, RF transmission is not continuous, but is packed into bursts at a base
frequency of about 216 Hz with relative current peaks as high as about 2A. Therefore, the power
supply must be designed to withstand 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. This
will reflect on all the audio paths producing an audible annoying noise at 216 Hz.
If the voltage drops during the peaks, current absorption is too high. The device may even shut
down as a consequence of the supply voltage drop.

6.2.
General Design Rules
The principal guidelines for the Power Supply Design embrace three different design steps:
6.2.1.

Electrical design

Thermal design

PCB layout
Electrical Design Guidelines
The electrical design of the power supply depends strongly on the power source where this power
is drained. Power sources can be distinguished by three categories:
6.2.1.1.

+5V input (typically PC internal regulator output)

+12V input

Battery
+ 5V Input Source Power Supply – Design Guidelines

The desired output for the power supply is 3.8V. So, the difference between the input
source and the desired output is not big, and therefore a linear regulator can be used. A
switching power supply is preferred to reduce power consumption.

When using a linear regulator, a proper heat sink must be provided to dissipate the power
generated.

A bypass low ESR capacitor of adequate capacity must be provided to cut the current
absorption peaks close to the LE910Cx module. A 100 μF tantalum capacitor is usually
suitable (on both VBATT and VBATT_PA together).

Make sure that the low ESR capacitor on the power supply output (usually a tantalum one)
is rated at least 10V.

A protection diode must be inserted close to the power input to protect the LE910Cx
module from power polarity inversion.

Figure 10 shows an example of linear regulator with 5V input.
Figure 10: Example of Linear Regulator with 5V Input
6.2.1.2.
+ 12V Input Source Power Supply – Design Guidelines

The desired output for the power supply is 3.8V. Due to the big difference between the
input source and the desired output, a linear regulator is unsuitable and must not be used.
A switching power supply is preferable because of its better efficiency, especially with the
2A peak current load which is expected during GSM Tx.

When using a switching regulator, a 500-kHz or higher 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 selection of the frequency and switching design is related to the application
to be developed due to the fact that the switching frequency can also generate EMC
interference.

For car batteries (lead-acid accumulators) the input voltage can rise up to 15.8V. This must
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 to cut the current
absorption peaks. A 100μF tantalum capacitor is usually suitable (on both VBATT and
VBATT_PA together).

Make sure that the low ESR capacitor on the power supply output (usually a tantalum one)
is rated at least 10V.

For automotive applications, a spike protection diode must be inserted close to the power
input to clean the supply of spikes.

A protection diode must be inserted close to the power input to protect the LE910Cx
module from power polarity inversion. This can be the same diode as for spike protection.

6.2.1.3.
Battery Source Power Supply – Design Guidelines

The desired nominal output for the power supply is 3.8V, and the maximum allowed
voltage is 4.2V. Hence, a single 3.7V Li-Ion cell battery type is suitable for supplying the
power to the LE910Cx module.
NOTE:
Do not use any Ni-Cd, Ni-MH, and Pb battery types directly connected to the LE910Cx module.
Their use can lead to overvoltage on the LE910Cx and damage it. Use only Li-Ion battery types.

A bypass low ESR capacitor of adequate capacity must be provided to cut the current
absorption peaks; a 100μF tantalum capacitor is usually suitable (on both VBATT and
VBATT_PA together).

Make sure that the low ESR capacitor (usually a tantalum one) is rated at least 10V.

A protection diode must be inserted close to the power input to protect the LE910Cx
module from power polarity inversion. Otherwise, the battery connector must be done in
a way to avoid polarity inversions when connecting the battery.

The battery capacity must be at least 900 mAh to withstand the current peaks of 2A.

1VV0301298 Rev. 1.01 - 2016-02-16
6.2.2.
Thermal Design Guidelines
The thermal design for the power supply heat sink must be done with the following specifications:

Average current consumption during RF transmission @PWR level max in LE910Cx as
shown in Table 17

Average current consumption during Class12 GPRS transmission @PWR level max as shown
in Table 17

Average GPS current during GPS ON (Power Saving disabled) : mA (TBD)
NOTE:
The average consumption during transmission depends on the power level at which the device is
requested to transmit via the network. Therefore, the average current consumption varies
significantly.
NOTE:
The thermal design for the power supply must be made keeping an average consumption at the
max transmitting level during calls of (LTE/HSPA)/GPRS plus average consumption in GPS Tracking
mode.
Considering the very low current during Idle, especially if the Power Saving function is enabled, it
is possible to consider from the thermal point of view that the device absorbs significant current
only during an Active Call or Data session.
For the heat generated by the LE910Cx module, consider it to be 2W max during transmission at
Class12 GPRS upload. The generated heat is mostly conducted to the ground plane under the
LE910Cx module. Ensure that your application can dissipate heat.
In LTE/WCDMA/HSPA mode, the LE910Cx emits RF signals continuously during transmission.
Therefore, you must pay special attention how to dissipate the heat generated.
Application board design needs to make sure the area under the LE910Cx module is as large as
possible. Make sure that the LE910Cx is mounted on the large ground area of application board and
provide many ground vias to dissipate the heat.
Even though peak current consumption in GSM mode is higher than in LTE/WCDMA/HSPA,
considerations for the heat sink are more important in the case of WCDMA due to the continuous
transmission conditions.

6.2.3.
Power Supply PCB Layout Guidelines
As seen in the electrical design guidelines, the power supply must have a low ESR capacitor on the
output to cut the current peaks and a protection diode on the input to protect the supply from
spikes and polarity inversion. The placement of these components is crucial for the correct
operation 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 LE910Cx power input pads, or if
the power supply is of a switching type, it can be placed close to the inductor to cut the
ripple, as long as the PCB trace from the capacitor to LE910Cx is wide enough to ensure a
drop-less 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 that no voltage drops occur during the 2A current peaks.
Note that this is not done 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 (also 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 does not have an audio interface but only uses the data feature of the LE910Cx,
this noise is not so disturbing, and the power supply layout design can be more forgiving.

The PCB traces to LE910Cx and the bypass capacitor must be wide enough to ensure that
no significant voltage drops occur when the 2A current peaks are absorbed. This is needed
for the same above-mentioned reasons. Try to keep these traces 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 the switching power supply). This is done to reduce the
radiated field (noise) at the switching frequency (usually 100-500 kHz).

Use a good common ground plane.

Place the power supply on the board in a way to guarantee that the high current return
paths in the ground plane do not overlap any noise sensitive circuitry, such as the
microphone amplifier/buffer or earphone amplifier.

The power supply input cables must be kept separate from noise sensitive lines, such as
microphone/earphone cables.

Antenna(s)
Antenna connection and board layout design are the most important parts in the full product
design, and they have a strong influence on the product’s overall performance. Read carefully and
follow the requirements and guidelines for a good and proper design.
7.1.
GSM/WCDMA/LTE Antenna Requirements
The antenna for the LE910Cx device must meet the following requirements:
Table 18: GSM / WCDMA/ LTE Antenna Requirements
Frequency range
The customer must use the most suitable antenna band width for
covering the frequency bands provided by the network operator and
also supported by the car OEM while using the Telit module.
The bands supported by each variant of the LE910Cx module family
are provided in Section 2.6.1, RF Bands per Regional Variant.

Since there is no antenna connector on the LE910Cx module, the antenna must be connected to
the LE910Cx antenna pad (K1) by a transmission line implemented on the PCB.
If the antenna is not directly connected to the antenna pad of the LE910Cx, a PCB line is required
to connect to it or to its connector.
This transmission line must meet the following requirements:
Table 19: Antenna Line on PCB Requirements
Characteristic impedance

1VV0301298 Rev. 1.01 - 2016-02-16
Furthermore, if the device is developed for the US and/or Canada market, it must comply with the
FCC and/or IC approval requirements.
NOTE:
This device is to be used only for mobile and fixed application. The antenna(s) used for this
transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm from all persons
and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
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 LE910Cx module. Antennas used for this OEM module must not exceed 3dBi gain for
mobile and fixed operating configurations.
7.2.
GSM/WCDMA/LTE Antenna – PCB Line Guidelines

Make sure that the transmission line’s characteristic impedance is 50 Ohm.

Keep the line on the PCB as short as possible since the antenna line loss should be less than
around 0.3 dB.

Line geometry should have uniform characteristics, constant cross sections, and avoid
meanders and abrupt curves.

Any suitable geometry/structure can be used for implementing the printed transmission
line affecting the antenna.

If a ground plane is required in the line geometry, this plane must be continuous and
sufficiently extended so the geometry can be as similar as possible to the related canonical
model.

Keep, if possible, at least one layer of the PCB used only for the ground plane. If possible,
use this layer as reference ground plane for the transmission line.

Surround the PCB transmission line with ground (on both sides). Avoid having other signal
tracks facing the antenna line track directly.

Avoid crossing any un-shielded transmission line footprint with other tracks on different
layers.

The ground surrounding the antenna line on the PCB must be strictly connected to the main
Ground plane by means of via-holes (once per 2 mm at least) placed close to the ground
edges facing the line track.

Place EM-noisy devices as far as possible from LE910Cx antenna line.

Keep the antenna line far away from the LE910Cx power supply lines.

If EM-noisy devices are present on the PCB hosting the LE910Cx, such as fast switching ICs,
take care to shield them with a metal frame cover.

1VV0301298 Rev. 1.01 - 2016-02-16

If EM-noisy devices are not present around the line, geometries like Micro strip or
Grounded Coplanar Waveguide are preferred because they typically ensure less
attenuation compared to a Strip line having the same length.
7.3.
GSM/WCDMA/LTE Antenna – Installation Guidelines

Install the antenna in a location with access to the network radio signal.

The antenna must be installed such that it provides a separation distance of at least 20 cm
from all persons and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other
antenna or transmitter.

The antenna must not be installed inside metal cases.

The antenna must be installed according to the antenna manufacturer’s instructions.
7.4.
Antenna Diversity Requirements
This product includes an input for a second Rx antenna to improve radio sensitivity. The function
is called Antenna Diversity.
Table 20: Antenna Diversity Requirements
Frequency range
The customer must use the most suitable antenna band width for
covering the frequency bands provided by the network operator
and also supported by the car OEM while using the Telit module.
The bands supported by each variant of the LE910Cx module
family are provided in Section 2.6.1, RF Bands per Regional Variant
Impedance
50Ω
VSWR recommended
≤ 2:1
Since there is no antenna connector on the LE910Cx module, the antenna must be connected to
the LE910Cx diversity antenna pad (F1) by means of a transmission line implemented on the PCB.
If the antenna is not directly connected at the antenna pad of the LE910Cx, a PCB line is required
to connect to it or to its connector.
The second Rx antenna must not be located in close vicinity of the main antenna. To improve
diversity gain and isolation and to reduce mutual interaction, the two antennas should be located
at the maximum reciprocal distance possible, taking into consideration the available space within
the application.
NOTE:
If Rx Diversity is not used/connected, disable the Diversity functionality using the AT#RXDIV
command (refer to the AT User guide) and leave the Diversity pad F1 unconnected.

7.5.
GNSS Antenna Requirements
LE910Cx supports an active antenna.
It is recommended to use antennas as follow:

An external active antenna (GPS only)

An external active antenna plus GNSS pre-filter
NOTE:
The external GNSS pre-filter is required for the GLONASS application.
The GNSS pre-filter must meet the following requirements:
Source and load impedance = 50 Ohm

Insertion loss (1575.42–1576.42 MHz) = 1.4 dB (Max)

Insertion loss (1565.42–1585.42 MHz) = 2.0 dB (Max)

Insertion loss (1597.5515–1605.886 MHz) = 2.0 dB (Max)
NOTE:
It is recommended to add a DC block to the customer’s GPS application to prevent damage to the
LE910Cx module due to unwanted DC voltage.
7.5.1.
Combined GNSS Antenna
The use of a combined RF/GNSS antenna is NOT recommended. This solution can generate an
extremely poor GNSS reception. In addition, the combination of antennas requires an additional
diplexer, which adds significant power loss in the RF path.
7.5.2.
Linear and Patch GNSS Antenna
Using this type of antenna introduces at least 3 dB of loss compared to a circularly polarized (CP)
antenna. Having a spherical gain response instead of a hemispherical gain response can aggravate
the multipath behavior and create poor position accuracy.
7.5.3.
Front End Design Considerations
Since there is no antenna connector on the LE910Cx module, the antenna must be connected to
the LE910Cx through the PCB to the antenna pad.
If the antenna is not directly connected at the antenna pad of the LE910Cx, a PCB line is required.
This line of transmission must meet the following requirements:

7.5.4.
GNSS Antenna – PCB Line Guidelines

Ensure that the antenna line impedance is 50 Ohm.

Keep the line on the PCB as short as possible to reduce the loss.

The antenna line must have uniform characteristics, constant cross section, avoiding
meanders and abrupt curves.

Keep one layer of the PCB used only for the Ground plane; if possible.

Surround (on the sides, over and under) the antenna line on the PCB with Ground. Avoid
having other signal tracks directly facing the antenna line track.

The Ground around the antenna line on the PCB must be strictly connected to the main
Ground plane by placing vias at least once per 2mm.

Place EM-noisy devices as far as possible from LE910Cx antenna line.

Keep the antenna line far away from the LE910Cx power supply lines.

If EM-noisy devices are around the PCB hosting the LE910Cx, such as fast switching ICs,
ensure shielding the antenna line by burying it inside the layers of PCB and surrounding it
with Ground planes; or shield it with a metal frame cover.

If you do not have EM-noisy devices around the PCB of LE910Cx, use a Micro strip line on
the surface copper layer for the antenna line. The line attenuation will be lower than a
buried one.

USB Port
The LE910Cx module includes a Universal Serial Bus (USB) transceiver, which operates at USB highspeed (480 Mbits/sec). It can also operate with USB full-speed hosts (12 Mbits/sec).
It is compliant with the USB 2.0 specification and can be used for control and data transfers as well
as for diagnostic monitoring and firmware update.
The USB port is typically the main interface between the LE910Cx module and OEM hardware.
NOTE:
The USB_D+ and USB_D- signals have a clock rate of 480 MHz. The signal traces must be routed
carefully. Minimize trace lengths, number of vias, and capacitive loading. The impedance value
should be as close as possible to 90 Ohms differential.
Table 23 lists the USB interface signals.

not used for supplying power to the internal LE910Cx USB HW block. Therefore, only a maximum of 5 mA
is required.
NOTE:
Even if USB communication is not used, it is still highly recommended to place an optional USB connector
on the application board.
At least test points of the USB signals are required since the USB physical communication is needed in
the case of SW update.
NOTE
An external 5V power supply is required on the application board for supporting USB OTG

HSIC Interface
The application processor exposes a High-Speed Inter-Chip (HSIC). HSIC eliminates the analog
transceiver from a USB interface for lower voltage operation and reduced power dissipation.

High-speed 480 Mbps (240 MHz DDR) USB transfers are 100% host driver compatible with
traditional USB cable connected topologies

Bidirectional data strobe signal (STROBE)

Bidirectional data signal (DATA)


Further details will be provided in a future release of this document.
8.3.
SGMII Interface (optional)
The SOC optionally includes an integrated Ethernet MAC with an SGMII interface, having the
following key features:

The SGMII interface can be used connect to an external Ethernet PHY, or an external switch.

When enabled, an additional network interface will be available to the Linux kernel’s
router.
Further details will be provided in a future release of this document.
8.4.
Serial Ports
The serial port is typically a secondary interface between the LE910Cx module and OEM hardware.
Two serial ports are available on the module:

MODEM SERIAL PORT 1(Main)

MODEM SERIAL PORT 2 (Auxiliary)
Several configurations can be designed for the serial port on the OEM hardware. The most common
are:

RS232 PC com port

Microcontroller UART @ 1.8V (Universal Asynchronous Receive Transmit)

Microcontroller UART @ 3.3V/5V or other voltages different from 1.8V
Depending on the type of serial port on the OEM hardware, a level translator circuit may be needed
to make the system operate. The only configuration that does not need level translation is the 1.8V
UART.
The levels for LE910Cx UART are the CMOS levels as described in Section 4.3, Logic Level
Specifications.

NOTE:
For minimum implementations, only the TXD and RXD lines need be connected. The other lines
can be left open provided a software flow control is implemented.
NOTE:
According to V.24, Rx/Tx signal names refer to the application side; therefore, on the LE910Cx side,
these signal are in the opposite direction: TXD on the application side will be connected to the
receive line (here named TXD/ RX_UART) of the LE910Cx serial port and vice versa for Rx.

Modem Serial Port 2
Serial Port 2 on the LE910Cx is a +1.8V UART with RX and TX signals only.
The UART functionality is shared with SPI thus simultaneous of SPI and UART is not supported.

8.4.3.
RS232 Level Translation
To interface the LE910Cx with a PC com port or a RS232 (EIA/TIA-232) application, a level translator
is required. This level translator must:

Invert the electrical signal in both directions

Change the level from 0/1.8V to +15/-15V
The RS232 UART 16450, 16550, 16650 & 16750 chipsets accept signals with lower levels on the
RS232 side (EIA/TIA-562), allowing 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 drivers and receivers 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 0-1.8V UART to the RS232 level. The
receiver is the translator from the RS232 level to 0-1.8V UART.
To translate the whole set of control lines of the UART, the following is required:

2 drivers

2 receivers
NOTE:
The digital input lines operating at 1.8V CMOS have an absolute maximum input voltage of 2.7V.
Therefore, the level translator IC must not be powered by the +3.8V supply of the module. Instead,
it must be powered from a dedicated +1.8V power supply.
An example of RS232 level adaption circuitry could use a MAXIM transceiver (MAX218).
In this case, the chipset is capable of translating directly from 1.8V to the RS232 levels (Example on
4 signals only).

NOTE:
In this case, the length of the lines on the application must be taken into account to avoid problems
in the case of High-speed rates on RS232.

names and directions are named and defined from the DTE point of view.

The general-purpose I/O pads can be configured to act in three different ways:

Input

Output

Alternate function (internally controlled)
Input pads can only be read and report digital values (high or low) present on the pad at the read
time. Output pads can only be written or queried and set the value of the pad output. An
alternate function pad is internally controlled by LE910Cx firmware and acts depending on the
implemented function.
The following GPIOs are always available as a primary function on the LE910Cx.

8.7.1.
Using a GPIO Pad as Input
GPIO pads, when used as inputs, can be connected to a digital output of another device and
report its status, provided this device has interface levels compatible with the 1.8V CMOS levels
of the GPIO.
If the digital output of the device is connected with the GPIO input, the pad has interface levels
different from the 1.8V CMOS. It can be buffered with an open collector transistor with a 47 kΩ
pull-up resistor to 1.8V.
8.7.2.
Using a GPIO Pad as an interrupt / Wakeup source
GPIO pads which are used as input can also be used as an interrupt source for the software.
In general all GPIO pads can be also used as interrupts.
However, not all GPIO’s can be used as a wakeup source of the module (wakeup from sleep)
Only the following GPIO’s can be used for waking up the system from sleep
8.7.3.

GPIO1

GPIO4

GPIO5

GPIO8
Using a GPIO Pad as Output
GPIO pads, when used as outputs, can drive 1.8V CMOS digital devices or compatible hardware.
When set as outputs, the pads have a push-pull output, and therefore the pull-up resistor can be
omitted.

Miscellaneous Functions
9.1.
Indication of Network Service Availability
The STAT_LED signal shows information on the network service availability and call status. In the
LE910Cx modules, the STAT_LED usually needs an external transistor to drive an external LED.
The STAT_LED does not have a dedicated pin. The STAT_LED functionality is available on GPIO_01
pin (by default GPIO_01 functions as STAT_LED)
The table below shows the device status corresponding to the pin status:

9.2.
Indication of Software Ready
The SW_RDY signal provides indication about the ability of the module to receive commands
As long as the SW_RDY is asserted low it indicates that the LE910Cx has not yet finished booting
Once the SW_RDY is asserted high, it indicates that the LE910Cx is ready to receive commands
The SW_RDY does not have a dedicated pin
The SW_RDY functionality is available on GPIO_08 pin (by default GPIO_08 functions as SW_RDY
9.3.
RTC – Real Time Clock
The RTC within the LE910Cx module does not have a dedicated RTC supply pin.
The RTC block is supplied by the VBATT supply.
If the battery is removed, RTC is not maintained so if maintaining an internal RTC is needed,
VBATT must be supplied continuously.
In Power OFF mode, the average current consumption is ~25uA.
9.4.
VAUX Power Output
A regulated power supply output is provided to supply small devices from the module. This
output is active when the module is ON and goes OFF when the module is shut down. The
operating range characteristics of the supply are as follows:

Recommended Footprint for the Application
Figure 24 shows the recommended footprint for the application board (dimensions are in mm).
To facilitate replacing the LE910Cx module if necessary, it is suggested to design the application
with a 1.5 mm placement inhibit area around the module.
It is also suggested, as a common rule for an SMT component, to avoid having a mechanical part of
the application in direct contact with the module.
NOTE:
In the customer application, the region marked as INHIBIT in Figure 24 must be clear of any signal
wiring or ground polygons.

11.2.
Bypass Capacitor on Power Supplies
When a sudden voltage step is asserted to or a cut from the power supplies, the steep transition
causes some reactions such as overshoot and undershoot. This abrupt voltage transition can affect
the device causing it to not operate or to malfunction.
Bypass capacitors are needed to alleviate this behavior. The behavior can appear differently
depending on the various applications. Customers must pay special attention to this issue when
they design their application board.
The length and width of the power lines must be considered carefully and the capacitance of the
capacitors must be selected accordingly.
The capacitor will also prevent ripple of the power supplies and the switching noise caused in TDMA
systems such as GSM.
Especially, a suitable bypass capacitor must be mounted on the following lines on the application
board:

VBATT & VBATT_PA (M1, M2, N1, N2, P1, P2)

USB_VBUS (Pad A13)
Recommended values are:

100uF for both VBATT and VBATT_PA together

4.7uF for USB_VBUS (including the 1uF capacitor inside the module)
Customers must still consider that the capacitance mainly depends on the conditions of their
application board.
Generally, more capacitance is required when the power line is longer.

SIM Interface
This section presents the recommended schematics for the design of SIM interfaces on the
application boards. The LE910Cx supports two external SIM interfaces.
11.3.1.
SIM Schematic Example
Figure 28 illustrates in particular how the application side should be designed, and what values the
components should have.
Figure 28: SIM Schematics
NOTE:
The resistor value on SIMIO pulled up to SIMVCC must be defined to be compliant with the 3GPP
specification for USIM electrical testing.
The LE910Cx module contains an internal pull-up resistor of 20K Ω on SIMIO.
However, the un-mounted option in the application design can be recommended to tune R1 if
necessary.

Users who use both UART and USB interfaces to communicate with the LE910Cx module must
implement a USB download method in the host system to upgrade the LE910Cx when it is
mounted.

USB interface only
Users who use a USB interface only to communicate with the LE910Cx module must arrange
for a USB port in the host system to debug or upgrade the LE910Cx when it is mounted.

UART interface only
Users who use a UART interface only to communicate with the LE910Cx module must arrange
for a UART port in the host system to debug or upgrade the LE910Cx when it is mounted.
11.5.1.
Fast Boot mode
Fast boot mode is normally used by Telit SW to enter SW download mode
Fastboot is triggered by GPIO_09 (PAD L15). Asserting this signal high (1.8V) during boot will force
the system into Fastboot
11.5.2.
Recovery Boot Mode
Emergency boot download mode is used in case of corrupted boot image was flashed into the
device or in case all other recovery modes failed to work
Emergency download mode is triggered by WCI_RX signal (PAD M9). Asserting this signal high
(1.8V) during boot will force the system into Emergency download.
NOTE:
