April 15, 2010 H24 - Module Hardware Description 1Chapter 1: IntroductionThe H24 is the newest member of Motorola's embedded cellular modules family.Designed with Tri bands WCDMA & quad band GSM capabilities, which supports WCDMA bands: B1-2100, B4-1700, B2-1900, B5 -850 & B8-900 with HSPA capability and four GSM bands - 850/900/1800/1900 MHz, with GPRS/EGPRS multislot class 12. H24 can operate on any GSM/GPRS/EGPRS/WCDMA/HSPA network to provide voice and data communications.The H24 is similar to a condensed cellular phone core, which can be integrated into any system or product that needs to transfer voice or data information over a cellular network. Thus, it significantly enhances the system's capabilities, transforming it from a standalone, isolated product to a powerful high-performance system with global communications capabilities.The H24 is designed as a complete GSM/WCDMA communications solution with all the controls, interfaces and features to support a broad range of applications: •A powerful audio interface•A large set of indicators and control signals•Several advanced power-saving modes•A variety of serial communications solutions.All these features and interfaces are easily controlled and configured using a versatile AT command interface that provides full control over the H24 operation.The H24 control and indication interface extends its capabilities beyond GSM communications. This includes an A/D and GPIO interface, and a regulated output voltage for supplying external circuits. With these interfaces, the H24 can operate and control external applications and receive feedback from external environment and circuits.The H24 interface design, using a single 70 pin board-to-board connector, through which all application interfaces are managed, facilitates fast and easy integration. It significantly shortens the development process, and minimizes the product's time to market.The H24 is extremely compact in size with a slim mechanical design, which makes it space saving on the application board and easily fitted into any board design.The advanced power supply management significantly reduces power consumption to a necessary minimum and prolongs battery life.

Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description April 15, 2010 H24 - Module Hardware Description 13Operating ModesH24 incorporates several operating modes. Each operating mode is different in the active features and interfaces.Table 2-1 summarizes the general characteristics of the H24 operating modes and provides general guidelines for operation.Note: For +MCONN=2, CTS_N is not active (disabled).Table 2-1: H24 Operating Modes Mode Description FeaturesNot Powered VCC supply is disconnected. The H24 is Off.Any signals connected to the interface con-nector must be set low or tri-state.Off Mode Valid VCC supply.RESET_N signal is enabled (low).The H24 Interfaces are Off. Only the inter-nal RTC timer is operating. Any signalsconnected to the interface connector must be set low or tri-stated.Idle Mode RESET_N signal is disabled (high).CTS_N and DSR_N signals are enabled (low).The H24 is fully active, registered to the GSM network and ready to communicate.This is the default power-up mode.Sleep Mode RESET_N signal is high.CTS_N signal is disabled.The H24 is in low power mode.The application interfaces are disabled, but, H24 continues to monitor the GSM network.CSD call or GPRS/EGPRS dataRESET_N signal is high.TXEN_N signal is toggling.A GSM voice or data call is in prog-ress.When the call terminates, H24 returns to the last operating state (Idle or Sleep).CSD call or WCDMA/HSPA dataRESET_N signal is high.TXEN_N signal is toggling.A GSM voice or data call is in progress. When the call terminates, H24 returns to the last operating state (Idle or Sleep).
Power Supply14 H24 - Module Hardware Description April 15, 2010Power SupplyThe H24 power supply must be a single external DC voltage source of 3.3V to 4.2V. The power supply must be able to sustain the voltage level during a GSM transmit burst current surge, which may reach 2.0A.The H24 interface connector has 8 contacts for the main power supply, as described in Table 2-2. All these contacts must be used for proper operation.Important: Do not operate the H24 out of its electrical or environmental limits. Refer to the specifications chapter for details of these limits.Important: The H24 does not incorporate a hard reset capability. The user should implement a power removal mechanism for hard resetting the unit when needed. This action will be performed with care as it could cause damage to the H24.Power Supply DesignSpecial care must be taken when designing the power supply of the H24. The single external DC power source indirectly supplies all the digital and analog interfaces, but also directly supplies the RF power amplifier (PA). Therefore, any degradation in the power supply performance, due to losses, noises or transients, will directly affect the H24 performance.The burst-mode operation of the GSM transmission and reception, draws instantaneous current surges from the power supply, which causes temporary voltage drops of the power supply level. The transmission bursts consume the most instantaneous current, and therefore cause the largest voltage drop. If the voltage drops are not minimized, the frequent voltage fluctuations may degrade the H24 performance.Table 2-2: Power Supply SignalsPin # Signal Name Description1-4 GND Main ground connection for H24 module.5-8 VCC DC supply input for H24 module.VIN = 3.3 V to 4.2 VIMAX = 2 A during transmit burstsMaximum rise time: 8mSAC ripple: +/-3%
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description April 15, 2010 H24 - Module Hardware Description 15Figure 2-4 illustrates the power supply behavior during GSM transmission.Figure 2-4: Transmission Power DropsNote: 1 TX slot is shown.It is recommended that the voltage drops during a transmit burst will not exceed 300mV, measured on the H24 interface connector. In any case, the H24 supply input must not drop below the minimum operating level during a transmit burst. Dropping below the minimum operating level may result in a low voltage detection, which will initiate an automatic power-off.To minimize the losses and transients on the power supply lines, it is recommended to follow these guidelines:•Use a 1000 uF, or greater, low ESR capacitor on the H24 supply inputs.

Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description April 15, 2010 H24 - Module Hardware Description 19Power On/Off OperationThe H24 power on and off process includes two primary phases, which are indicated at the interface connector by the hardware output signals RESET_N and CTS_N.The RESET_N signal indicates whether H24 is powered on or off.When this signal is enabled (low), H24 is powered-off. When it is disabled (high), H24 is powered-on.The CTS_N signal complys with RS-232 standard. When this signal is high, the H24 serial interface is disabled. When it is low, the serial interface is enabled, and H24 is ready to communicate.Important: The timing shown in the diagrams below depends on network response time.Turning the H24 OnWhen the H24 power supply is stable above the minimum operating level and H24 is powered off, only the internal RTC timer is active.When H24 is turned on, by any of the methods described below, it will first perform an automatic internal system-test, during which basic functions are verified. The system-test duration is typically 3 seconds (Depends on network coverage). When the system-test has completed H24 resumes normal operation.During the internal system-test process H24 may toggle several interface signals, which are visible to the application. These signals do not represent any valid state or data, and should be ignored by the customer application until the system-test has completed.Power Supply Turn-onWhen the H24 is powered for the first time, it will switch on only in case that a valid reason was detected (IGN, ON_N activation), otherwise it will stay off.
Power On/Off Operation20 H24 - Module Hardware Description April 15, 2010The ON_N and IGN signals will be active and responding only after the power supply to the H24 is stable above the minimum operating level. Therefore, the ON_N and IGN signals must not be used for at least 100 milliseconds after applying power to H24.Figure 2-5: Power Supply Turn OnTurning the H24 On Using ON_NThe ON_N input signal is set high by an internal pull-up resistor whenever a power supply is applied to H24. Therefore, it is recommended to operate this signal using an open collector/drain circuit connection.Asserting the ON_N signal low for a minimum of 500 milliseconds (0.5 seconds) and a maximum of 1.5 seconds will cause the H24 to turn-on.Asserting the ON_N signal low for more than 1.5 seconds may cause the H24 to interpret the signal as a power-off command, and turn off immediately after turning on.Figure 2-6: Turning the H24 On Using ON_N
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description April 15, 2010 H24 - Module Hardware Description 21Turning the H24 On Using IGNThe IGN input signal must be set low when not used. To turn on H24, this signal must be asserted high for at least 8 seconds. The IGN signal must remain high for the duration of the H24 operation. H24 powers down when the IGN signal is returned to its low state.Figure 2-7: Turning the H24 On Using IGNTurning the H24 OffThere are several ways to turn the H24 off:•Asserting the ON_N signal low for a minimum of 2 seconds.•Setting the IGN signal low.•Low power automatic shut down.•AT command.•Voltage exceeds 4.5V.•Temperature at PMIC exceeds 125C.Turning the H24 Off Using ON_NThe ON_N signal is set high using an internal pull up resistor when power is applied to H24. Asserting the ON_N signal low for a minimum of 2 seconds will turn H24 off. This will initiate a
Power On/Off Operation22 H24 - Module Hardware Description April 15, 2010normal power-off process, which includes disabling of all applications interfaces (SIM card, audio, etc.) and closing the network connection.Figure 2-8: Turning the H24 Off Using ON_NTurning the H24 Off Using IGNThe IGN signal may be used to power off H24 only if it was also used to power it on. When the IGN signal is set low, H24 will turn off. This will initiate a normal power-off process, which includes disabling of all applications interfaces (SIM card, audio, etc.) and closing the network connection.Figure 2-9: Turning the H24 Off Using IGNPower Loss shut downA low power shut down occurs when H24 senses the external power supply is below the minimal operating limit. The module will respond by powering down automatically without notice.
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description April 15, 2010 H24 - Module Hardware Description 23This form of power-down is not recommended for regular use since the unexpected power loss may result in loss of data.Turning the H24 Off Using AT+MPWRDNThe AT+MPWRDN command initiates a H24 power down (even if the H24 was powered on by IGN). This command emulates the ON_N signal operation for power off.
Low Power Mode24 H24 - Module Hardware Description April 15, 2010Low Power ModeThe H24 incorporates an optional low power mode, called Sleep Mode, in which it operates in minimum functionality, and therefore draws significantly less current. During low power mode the H24 network connection is not lost. H24 continues to monitor the GSM network constantly for any incoming calls or data.During low power mode, most of the H24 interface signals are inactive and are kept in their previous state, prior to activating low power mode. To save power, the H24 internal Main clock and some of its circuits are shut down, and therefore serial communications is limited.Activating Low Power ModeUART:By default, the H24 powers on in Idle mode. In this mode the H24 interfaces and features are functional and the module is fully active.Low power mode is controlled by the AT+MSLEEP & ATS24 commands.The command AT+MSLEEP=1 enable Sleep Mode (AT+MSLEEP=0 disable Sleep Mode).The value of S24 command determines the inactive state duration required by H24, in seconds, after which H24 will enter sleep mode.For example:ATS24 = 1 activates low power mode after 1 second of UART inactivity.ATS24 = 5 activates low power mode after 5 seconds of UART inactivity.Note: ATS24=0 will not disable sleep mode at H24.AT+MSLEEP = 1 Enable low power mode.AT+MSLEEP = 0 Disable low power mode (default).Important: H24 will not enter low power mode in any case when there is data present on the serial interface.Also when any network (GSM/UMTS ) activity (e.g. incoming voice call, data session) or an internal system task is running. Only when processing of any external or internal system task has completed, if AT+MSLEEP=1 and H24 UART is inactive for the duration of ATS24, H24 will enter low power mode.USB:Any transaction to the USB will wake up the H24 provided the user USB stack supports suspend/resume mechanism. In case such mechanism is not supported the user will not be able set the H24 at sleep mode.In case of resume event the SW will be responsible to all the needed configurations (endpoints etc.) to maintain the link. In case the host USB protocols stack doesn't support resume suspend mechanism the USB module in the H24 will not go to sleep hence the entire H24 will remain active as long as the USB cable is connected.Remote wake up is supported.CTS signal conforms RS-232 standard at this mode.
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description April 15, 2010 H24 - Module Hardware Description 25Serial Interface During Low Power ModeDuring low power mode the H24 serial interfaces are disabled. This is indicated by the CTS_N signal high state (if hardware flow control is set by AT+IFC=2, 2 (or AT&K4) and CTS control is set by AT+MSCTS=1 command).The H24 wakes up periodically from low power mode to listen to paging channel of the GSM/WCDMA networks for any incoming calls or data. After this short paging is completed, H24 returns to low power mode. During this short awake period, the serial interfaces are enabled and communications with the module is possible (if both AT+IFC=2, 2 (or AT&K4) and AT+MSCTS=1 commands are in use).The CTS_N signal is alternately enabled and disabled synchronously with the network paging cycle. CTS_N is enabled whenever H24 awakes to page the network. This indicates the H24 serial interfaces are active (see Figure 2-10).When using AT+IFC=2, 2 the Terminal should be set to flow control - HW.When using AT+IFC=0, 0 the Terminal should be set to flow control - None.Need to disconnect and connect to terminal for the new setup to be active.RS232 cable hot swap is supported and insert cable will wake up the H24.WAKEUP_IN line pin 16 (on 70 pin connector) should override any sleep condition and will prevent H24 from enter sleep mode.In case user is working with UART and enables HW flow control, it is advised that the user will plan his system to wake up H24 also using the WAKEUP_IN HW line.If the following conditions become true the user will be able to wake H24 only through WAKEUP_IN line (or just return to work with folow control = None); and will not be able to wake H24 through RX activity (sending data):•Sleep mode over UART enabled•UART HW flow control enabled•Airplane mode enabled (AT+CFUN=0 or AT+CFUN=4).In this case there is no DRX and CTS is not rising.Figure 2-10: CTS Signal During Sleep ModeThe periodical enabling and disabling of the CTS_N signal during low power mode can be controlled by the AT+MSCTS command.Setting AT+MSCTS=0 permanently disables the serial interface during low power mode, even during a network page by H24. The CTS_N signal is disabled, and therefore the serial interfaces are blocked.
Low Power Mode26 H24 - Module Hardware Description April 15, 2010Terminating Low Power ModeTerminating the low power mode, or wake-up, is defined as the transition of the H24 operating state from Sleep mode to Idle mode. There are several ways (using UART CTS_N signal, WKUPI_N line or UART RX line interrupt) to wake-up H24 from low power mode as described below.Important: During power saving mode the H24 internal clocks and circuits are disabled, in order to minimize power consumption. When terminating the power saving mode, and switching to Idle mode, H24 requires a minimal delay time to reactivate and stabilize its internal circuits before it can respond to application data.This delay is typically of 100 milliseconds, and is also indicated by the CTS_N signal inactive (high) state. The delay guarantees that data on the serial interface is not lost or misinterpreted.Temporary Termination of Low Power ModeThe WKUPI_N signal is an active low input that is set high by default. By asserting this signal low the application can wake-up H24 from low power mode and switch to idle mode.Low power mode may be terminated temporarily by several sources, some of which are user initiated and others are initiated by the system.Using the WKUPI_N signal to wake UART from Sleep ModeThe WKUPI_N signal is an active low input, that is set high by default. By asserting this signal low the application can wake-up H24 from low power mode and switch to Idle mode.H24 will remain in idle mode, awake and fully active, as long as WKUPI_N signal remains low. When this signal is disabled and set high again, H24 will return to Sleep mode automatically, according to the ATS24 settings.The WKUPI_N signal is the recommended method to temporarily wake-up H24 from low power mode. It provides the application full control of the H24 operating mode and guarantees that data on the serial interface will not be lost or misinterpreted.The WKUPI_N signal can be used to wake up H24 from low power mode. If the serial interface has been controlled by the AT+IFC=1,1 (or AT&K4) command, the application can work in Hardware Flow Control accumulate the data in its buffer and send it to the module when the CTS is Enabled. (Note: this method of operation works without using AT+MSCTS=0 command).Incoming Network DataDuring low power mode, H24 continues monitoring the network (GSM or UMTS) for any incoming data, message or voice calls.When H24 receives an indication from the network that an incoming voice call, message or data is available, it automatically wakes up from low power mode to alert the application. When H24 has completed to process all the tasks related to the incoming data, it will automatically return to low power mode according to the ATS24 settings.Depending on the type of network indication and the application settings, H24 may operate in several methods, which are configurable by AT commands, to alert the application of the incoming data:
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description April 15, 2010 H24 - Module Hardware Description 27•Enable the WKUPO_N signal to wake-up the application from low power by setting ATS100 to value bigger then zero. ATS102 can be 0 but is 30ms by default for example ATS102=30 will start WKUPO_N signal 30 millisecond before data send out from UART to Host.•Send data to the application over the serial interface.•Enable the serial interface's Ring Indicator (RI_N) signal.Data on the Serial interfaceWhile H24 is temporarily awake in Idle mode, data may be transmitted on the serial interface. In case data is being transmitted in any direction, H24 will not return to low power mode. This is regardless of the original wake-up reason or source. H24 will remain awake while data is transferred.Only when the serial interface transfer is completed and the data has been processed, H24 will return to low power mode automatically, according to the ATS24 settings (see Figure 2-11).Figure 2-11: Serial Interface DataUART and USB Exiting of Low Power ModeEnable/Disable Low Power ModeThe H24 low power mode is enabled and disabled by the AT+MSLEEP command.To permanently terminate the H24 low power mode, the +MSLEEP=0 command must be used. H24 will not return to low power mode until an AT+MSLEEP=1 commands is set again.This command can be sent only when the serial interface is active.UART Exiting of Low Power ModeIn case the serial interface is disabled, Hardware Flow control is OFF and WKUP_I is not used, it must first be activated before sending this command. To reactivate the serial interface, a temporary termination of the low power mode is required, by sending AT command that will catch by the RX line interrupt service routine and will use to wake up the module (The execution of the first command after exit Sleep Mode by RX interrupt is not guarantied.USB Exiting of Low Power ModeHandled by suspend/resume mechanism.
Real Time Clock28 H24 - Module Hardware Description April 15, 2010Real Time ClockH24 incorporates a Real Time Clock (RTC) mechanism that performs time keeping. The RTC subsystem is embedded in the PMIC and operates in all of the H24 operating modes (Off, Idle, Sleep), as long as power is supplied above the minimum operating level.The H24 time and date can be set using the following methods:•Automatically retrieved from the GSM network.In case H24 is operated in a GSM network that supports automatic time zone updating, it will update the RTC with the local time and date upon connection to the network. The RTC will continue to keep the time from that point.•Using the AT+CCLK command.Setting the time and date manually by this AT commands overrides the automatic network update.Once the time and date are manually updated, the RTC timer will keep the time and date synchronized regardless of the H24 operating state.When the power supply is disconnected from H24, the RTC timer will reset and the current time and date will be lost. On the next H24 power-up the time and date will need to be set again automatically or manually.Nevertheless, there is ability to keep the RTC working while main power supply is off.This can be done by supplying the RTC an external power of 3V to a dedicated pin in the microprocessor.This dedicated pin is called Vcoin.When the main power supply is off and Vcoin is active, the RTC is still working.When power supply is off, no Vcoin applied, the RTC will work only for 2 sec, and will turn "off".
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description April 15, 2010 H24 - Module Hardware Description 29Serial InterfacesH24 includes three completely independent serial communications interfaces, which may be used by the application for several purposes.Primary UART (UART1)The H24 primary UART is a standard 8-signal bus. The primary UART is used for all the communications with H24 - AT commands interface, GPRS/EGPRS data and CSD data, programming and software upgrades.The UART signals are active low CMOS level signals. For standard RS232 communications with a PC, an external transceiver is required.H24 is defined as a DCE device, and the user application is defined as the DTE device. These definitions apply for the UART signals naming conventions, and the direction of data flow, as described in Figure 2-12.Figure 2-12: UART1 Interface SignalsThe H24 primary UART supports maximum data rate of up to 4 Mbps interface and up to 230 kbps for data services using the UART1 interface.All flow control handshakes are supported: hardware, software, or none.Parity bit and Stop bit definitions are also supported.The UART default port configuration is 8 data bits, 1 stop bit and no parity, with hardware flow control.USB InterfaceH24 incorporates a standard Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface.The H24 USB electrical interface and protocol conform to the USB 2.0 high-speed specifications. H24 is defined as a USB device on the USB bus and does not support hub or host functionality.
Serial Interfaces30 H24 - Module Hardware Description April 15, 2010USB may be used for standard communications with H24, as done through the UART interface.The USB interface signals are shown in Figure 2-13.Figure 2-13: USB Interface SignalsUID determines the USB mode configuration: Host or Client (Client mode is supported).Note: Do not connect USB_ID pin (pin 45).Important: When layouting USB signals: Run HS_D_P/M as diff pair with equal length , to maintain a nominal 90 Ω differential impedance +/-15%, single-ended impedance in a range of 42 to 78 Ω being acceptable.
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description April 15, 2010 H24 - Module Hardware Description 31SIM InterfaceThe H24 incorporates a SIM interface, which conforms to the GSM 11.11 and GSM 11.12 standards, that are based on the ISO/IEC 7816 standard. These standards define the electrical, signaling and protocol specifications of a GSM SIM card.H24 does not incorporate an on-board SIM card tray for SIM placement. The SIM must be located on the user application board, external to the H24. The H24 SIM interface includes all the necessary signals, which are routed to the interface connector, for a direct and complete connection to an external SIM.H24 supports dynamic detection of the SIM card, through a dedicated SIM detection signal. H24 will detect a SIM card insertion or removal upon power up or during operation by the transitions on the SIM_PD_N signal.Some of the H24 models incorporates eSIM (embedded SIM). Refer to “Embedded SIM” on page 32.External SIM ConnectionTable 2-5 details the SIM interface signals.SIM Design GuidelinesThe SIM interface and signals design is extremely important for proper operation of H24 and the SIM card. There are several design guidelines that must be followed to achieve a robust and stable design that meets the required standards and regulations.•Using the SIM detection signal, SIM_PD_N, is mandatory in case the SIM card is accessible to the user and may be removed during H24 operation. To avoid any damage to the SIM or H24, the SIM interface signals must be deactivated before the SIM card contacts are mechanically removed from the SIM tray contacts. Therefore, the SIM_PD_N detection signal must be disabled before the SIM is removed from its tray.•The SIM should be located, and its signals should be routed, away from any possible EMI sources, such as the RF antenna and digital switching signals.•The SIM interface signals length should not exceed 100 mm between the H24 interface connector and the SIM tray. This is to meet with EMC regulations and improve signal integrity.Table 2-5: SIM Interface Signals Connected to 70 pin H24 Interruptible44 SIM_RST_N N46 SIM_CLK N48 SIM_VCC N50 SIM_PD_N Y52 SIM_DIO N
SIM Interface32 H24 - Module Hardware Description April 15, 2010•To avoid crosstalk between the SIM clock and data signals (SIM_CLK and SIM_DIO), it is recommended to rout them separately on the application board, and preferably isolated by a surrounding ground plane.•The SIM card signals should be protected from ESD using very low capacitance protective elements (zener diodes, etc.).•The H24 interface does not support SIM programming through the VPP signal. This signal should not be connected to H24.•SIM voltage level will not drop below 2.7V (1.6V for 1.8V SIM card) during hot insertion.•It is recommended to add series termination at signals SIM CLK (100 Ohm) and the SIM_DIO (56 Ohm) and bypass SIM_VCC with a 100nF cap.Embedded SIMThe H24 newest feature is incorporating an Embedded SIM inside (depending on H24 model).Embedded SIM (e.g. eSIM or chip SIM), is a secured micro controller IC, with the same pinout interface, and the same operation as an external SIM card.The eSIM main advantage is it robustness, making it an ideal solution for M2M applications.Since an eSIM is actually an IC soldered on the H24, it can withstand wider temperature range then a regular external SIM card that is usually made of plastic, and gets twisted and bowed at high temperature, causing disconnection inside the SIM tray.For the same reason, the eSIM is more durable to vibration then a regular external SIM card. Hard vibration on an application with a SIM card socket may result in with an intermitted connection between the SIM card socket and the SIM card.Two signals are associated with the eSIM:•SIM_PD_N: (pin 50) This signal must be set low for acknowledge the H24 that eSIM is connected.•Chip SIM reset: (pin 56) This pin is dedicated for reseting the eSIM. In case that the eSIM is incorporated, short circuit this pin to pin 44 (SIM_RST_N).
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description April 15, 2010 H24 - Module Hardware Description 33Audio InterfaceThe H24 audio interface supports several audio devices and operating modes.The audio interface's operating modes, active devices, amplification levels and speech processing algorithms are fully controlled by the host application, through advanced programming options and a versatile AT commands set.The H24 supports the following audio devices:•Two single-ended/ Differential and mono analog microphone inputs for use in a variety of modes.•Differential mono analog speaker output.•Differential mono analog alert output.

MICBIAS supports multiple microphones simultaneously up to 1 mA.In case the user connect single-ended mic, he must connect it to pin 61 and short circuit pin 62 to ground.For gain levels, please refer to H24 AT Commands manual - 6802986C37.Figure 2-15: Handset InterfaceHeadset InterfaceThe most basic handset configuration is shown in Figure 2-16. This configuration uses an AC-coupled mono earphone interface and a standard single-ended microphone interface.The output power for the single-ended HPH_L/HPH_R output is typically 21.6 mW per side for a full-scale +3 dBm0 sine wave into a 15Ω speaker.Few alternative earphone configurations are given in the following paragraphs.

Audio Interface36 H24 - Module Hardware Description April 15, 2010For gain levels, please refer to H24 AT Commands manual - 6802986C37.Figure 2-17: External SpeakerAudio DesignThe audio quality delivered by H24 is highly affected by the application audio design, particularly when using the analog audio interface. Therefore, special care must be taken when designing the H24 audio interface. Improper design and implementation of the audio interface will result in poor audio quality.Poor audio quality is a result of electrical interferences, or noises, from circuits surrounding the audio interface. There are several possible sources for the audio noise:•Transients and losses on the power supply•EMI from antenna radiations•Digital logic switching noiseMost of the audio noise originates from the GSM transmit burst current surges (217 Hz TDMA buzz), which appear on the main power supply lines and antenna, but also indirectly penetrate the internal application's supplies and signals. The noises are transferred into the H24's audio circuits through the microphone input signals and then are amplified by the H24's internal audio amplifiers.To minimize the audio noise and improve the audio performance the microphone and speaker signals must be designed with sufficient protection from surrounding noises.The following guidelines should be followed to achieve best audio performance:•Reference the microphone input circuits to the H24 AGND interface signal.•If using single-ended audio outputs, they should be referenced to the H24 AGND interface signal.•Keep the audio circuits away from the antenna.•Use RF filtering capacitors on the audio signals, as described in Table 2-3.Power ManagementSPKR_OUT_M63H24SPKR_OUT_P65CPULIN E_OPLIN E_ON1uF1uF68pF 68pF47nH47nH18pF70 pin conn.Power ManagementSPKR_OUT_M63H24SPKR_OUT_P65CPULIN E_OPLIN E_ON1uF1uF68pF 68pF47nH47nH18pF70 pin conn.

The AGND signal is intended to provide a separate ground connection for the application's external audio devices and circuits.This signal provides an isolated ground connection directly from H24, which is separated from the noisy digital ground of the application. It is recommended to connect this signal to analog audio devices and circuits used by the application. Using a separate analog ground minimizes audio noises and improves the audio circuit's immunity from external interferences.Digital Audio InterfaceThe H24 digital audio interface is a serial Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) bus, which uses linear 2's compliment coding. H24 is the PCM bus master, supplying the clock and sync signals to the application.The H24 digital interface is a 4 signal PCM bus, which includes a bit clock output signal for the bus timing, a frame sync output signal for audio sampling timing, and serial data input and output signals.Important: The PCM bus signals are shared internally by the analog audio interface and the digital audio interface. Therefore, when using the analog audio interface the PCM bus signals must be tri-stated or disconnected at the interface connector.The digital audio interface supports 4 types of audio data formats, which define the PCM bus configuration and data rates:•Voice band audio - Intended for speech during voice calls and for mono rings and alerts.•Stereo audio - Includes 3 audio formats that support high quality stereo ring tones and alerts.Voiceband AudioThis digital voice audio format is used for speech during voice calls and for mono rings and alerts.The PCM bus signal's configuration for voiceband audio is:•PCM_CLK - 2048 kHz serial clock•PCM_FS - 8 kHz bit-wide frame-sync•PCM_DOUT - 13-bit linear audio data output•PCM_DIN - 13-bit linear audio data inputThe analog audio is sampled at an 8 kHz rate and converted to linear 13-bit serial PCM audio data. The serial data is transferred on the PCM bus in 16-bit word format, which includes 13 sampled data bits, and 3 added zero value bits.
Audio Interface38 H24 - Module Hardware Description April 15, 2010The 16-bit serial data is transferred in both directions after each sync signal's falling edge. The sync signal pulse duration is one clock period, after which the serial data is transferred in both directions for 16 consecutive clock periods.Following the 16-bit data transfer, the serial input and output data signals inactivate until the next sync pulse, which occurs every 125 µS (8 kHz). It is recommended the serial data signals will be High-Z during the inactive period.Important: In digital audio mode the input and output gains cannot be controlled by AT commands.Figure 2-18 illustrates the PCM bus format of the voiceband audio configuration.Figure 2-18: Voiceband Mode PCM Bus Coding Format
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description April 15, 2010 H24 - Module Hardware Description 39Controls and Indicators InterfaceThe H24 incorporates several interface signals for controlling and monitoring the module's operation. The following paragraphs describes these signals and their operation.Table 2-6 gives a description of the controls and indicators signals.ResetThe RESET_N output signal indicates the H24's operating status. This signal is set high after power up, when H24 is operating. It is set low when H24 is powered off.When the RESET_N signal is low, the H24 interface signals are disabled and do not represent any valid data or state. Furthermore, any input signals connected to the H24 interface must be disabled (tri-state) or set low when RESET_N is low.VREF Reference RegulatorThe H24 incorporates a regulated voltage output, VREF. The regulator provides a 2.6V output for use by the customer application. This regulator can source up to 300 mA of current to power any external digital circuits.Important: The VREF regulator is powered from the H24's main power supply, and therefore any current sourced through this regulator originates from the H24 VCC supply. The overall VCC current consumed by H24 is directly affected by the VREF operation. The H24 current consumption rises with respect to the current sourced through VREF.The VREF regulator incorporates 3 operating modes that are controlled by the AT+MVREF command. These modes define the regulator operating state relative to the H24's operating mode.Table 2-6: Controls and IndicatorsConnector Pin Signal Name Description25 RESET_N H24 system reset output indicator.When high, H24 is operating.27 VREF 2.6V regulated output.Supplies external circuits up to 300mA.16 WKUPO_N Host application wake-up signal indi-cator.49 Network status indicatorNetwork status indicator.(GPRS/GSM/WCDMA)39 TXEN_N Transmission burst indication.28, 30, 32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42GPIO 1-8 General purpose IO signals for cus-tomer use.
Controls and Indicators Interface40 H24 - Module Hardware Description April 15, 2010OFF ModeIn this mode the VREF regulator is disabled and its output drops to 0V, regardless of the H24 operating state.Sleep ModeThe 300 mA rated linear regulator offers a low power mode to reduce its quiescent current during the module’s sleep mode. This mode uses reduced current in the feedback loop, causing degraded performance (PSRR, output current capability, etc.). In fact, if the load increases beyond 1 mA the output voltage can go out of specification. This mode should only be used when the module is in its sleep mode.Active ModeIn this mode the VREF regulator is always fully active while H24 is operating, regardless of the H24 operating mode.Table 2-7 gives the VREF specifications.Wakeup OutSome applications incorporate their own power saving mode, in which they operate with minimal functionality, including disabling of interfaces and serial communications.The wakeup-out (WKUPO_N) signal is an active low output, which is designed to support a low power mode feature in the host application. This signal is used by H24 to indicate that it requires to communicate with the host application through the serial interface, due to an incoming call or data, or an unsolicited event. Applications that incorporate a low power mode should use this signal as an indication to switch from low power mode to normal operation, and activate the serial interface.The wakeup-out mechanism, using the WKUPO_N signal, is controlled by 2 AT commands (see Figure 2-19):•ATS102 - Defines the delay time in milliseconds that H24 will wait, after asserting the WKUPO_N signal low, before sending data on the serial interface. This delay is required to allow the application enough time to reactivate from low power mode and switch to normal Table 2-7: VREF SpecificationsParameter Conditions Min Typ Max UnitVOUT -3% 2.6 +3% VIOUT 300 mALoad regula-tion0.65 %Line regula-tion0.2 %/VPSRR 40 dB
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description April 15, 2010 H24 - Module Hardware Description 41mode.If ATS102=0, which is the default value, the WKUPO_N signal and mechanism is disabled.In case the serial interface incorporates hardware flow control signals, the data will be sent according to their state, after the ATS102 delay time has expired.•ATS100 - Defines the application minimal wakeup duration, in seconds, for a single wakeup event. This time definition is required to avoid frequent unnecessary wakeup events and consequent ATS102 delays.The application may return to low power mode after the serial interface has been inactive for the duration set by ATS100. This duration is measured from the last data sent or received on the serial interface.Figure 2-19: WKUPO_N OperationThe following guidelines apply to the wakeup-out mechanism:•H24 will set the WKUPO_N signal low to indicate that in has data to send through the serial interface.•H24 will start sending the data to the application after the delay defined by ATS102.•The WKUPO_N signal will remain low while data is being sent to the host application.•The host application should keep its serial interface active, and not switch to low power mode, while the WKUPO_N signal is low.•H24 will set the WKUPO_N signal high when it has completed sending the data.•The application serial interface must stay active, and not switch to low power mode, for the duration set by ATS100, after WKUPO_N is set high.•H24 will not set the WKUPO_N signal low if it needs to send additional data during the ATS100 delay time.•The application may switch to low power mode after the WKUPO_N signal is set high and the serial interface has been inactive for the duration set by ATS100.Network Connection DetectionThe network connection output signal (Pin 49) indicates the network (GPRS/EGPRS or WCDMA/HSPA) connection status. When H24 is connected to a network, this signal is enabled. When H24 is not connected to the GPRS/EGPRS or WCDMA/HSPA network this signal is disabled. This pin (Pin 49) is enabled by the command AT+MCWAKE.
Controls and Indicators Interface42 H24 - Module Hardware Description April 15, 2010Transmission IndicatorThe TXEN_N output signal indicates when H24 is transmitting over the GSM or CDMA network. This signal follows the H24 GSM transmit bursts. This signal is set low during transmission burst, and set high when no transmission is in progress.Figure 2-20 shows the TXEN_N operation.Figure 2-20: TXEN_N OperationGeneral Purpose I/OThe H24 incorporates 8 general purpose IO signals for the user application. Each GPIO signal may be configured and controlled by AT command. These signals may be used to control or set external application circuits, or to receive indications from the external application.
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description April 15, 2010 H24 - Module Hardware Description 43Antenna InterfaceThe H24 antenna connector is the RF interface to the GSM/WCDMA network.The antenna interface is terminated by an MMCX connector type, which is 50Ω impedance matched at the relevant GSM/WCDMA frequencies.The antenna or antenna application must be installed properly to achieve best performance.Table 2-8 gives the antenna interface specifications.It is the Integrator's responsibility to design the antenna or antenna assembly used with the H24. This will highly affect the RF performance of the H24 (dropped calls, battery consumption etc.). The following guidelines should be followed:•Make sure that the antenna or antenna assembly matches the Antenna Interface Specifications.•Use low loss RF cable and connectors keeping cable runs to a minimum.Table 2-8: Antenna Interface SpecificationsParameter Conditions SpecificationsGSM 850TX 824 - 849 MHzRX 869 - 894 MHzGSM 900TX 880 - 915 MHzRX 925 - 960 MHzDCS 1800TX 1710 - 1785 MHzRX 1805 - 1880 MHzPCS 1900TX 1850 - 1910 MHzRX 1930 - 1990 MHzGain For antenna gain please refer to “Antenna Installation” .Impedance 50ΩVSWR Less than: 2.5:1WCDMA B1 2100TX 1920-1980 MHzRX 2110 - 2170 MHzWCDMA B2 1900TX 1850-1910 MHzRX 1930-1990 MHzWCDMA B5850TX 824 - 849 MHzRX 869 - 894 MHzWCDMA B41700TX 1710 - 1755 MHzRX 2110 - 2155 MHzWCDMA B8900TX 880-915 MHzRX 925-960 MHz
Antenna Interface44 H24 - Module Hardware Description April 15, 2010DiversityRX Diversity OverviewThe usage of diversity antenna has a great advantage of improving receiver sensitivity.H24 HSPA series offers antenna diversity feature to be used in the UMTS/HSPA frequency bands.The receiver sensitivity improvement is achieved by:•Fading effect improvementWhile one antenna is in fade, the other antenna is probably not.•Better Noise FigureTwo antennas will receive more signal power then one antenna and while combining two signals the uncorrelated noise will be reduced.•Interference rejectionCombining the received signal with weighting selected so that correlated interfering signals picked up on both antennas tend to cancel each other out.PerformanceTypical 4dB sensitivity improvement is shown while the H24 is in conducted lab conditions:Base station is connected with RF cables to both RX main port and RX diversity port due to diversity port usage (measured in all H24 UMTS supported bands).Diversity antenna requirements•Diversity Rx-Only antenna - typically smaller than the primary antenna.•Antenna should be designed for the supported UMTS/HSPA bands of interest.•UMTS/HSPA RX frequencies:•Antenna impedance - 50Ohm.•Free space antenna efficiency should be greater than -7 dB (20%).•Antenna VSWR < 3:1 in free space for all bands.•Delta gain between primary and secondary antennas should be greater than -3 dB.•Isolation from primary antenna to secondary antenna should be greater than 8 dB.UMTS/HSPA RX Band Frequency [MHz]Band I 2110-2170MHzBand II 1930-1990MHzBand IV 2110-2155MHzBand V 849-894MHzBand VIII 925-960MHz
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description April 15, 2010 H24 - Module Hardware Description 45Diversity Antenna Design Recommendations•For better Isolation it is recommended to increase distance between primary antenna and secondary antenna as possible.•For lower antenna correlation (lower correlation improves performance under fading conditions) it is recommended that diversity antenna polarity will be horizontal in case main antenna is vertical.•It is important to complete TRP and TIS testing at the chamber include both primary and diversity antenna installed. These tests are typically required by the network operators as part of their acceptance requirements.GPS and Antenna InterfaceIntroductionH24 GPS supports the following configurations:•Autonomous GPS, •Assisted GPS, SUPL GPS•MS-BASE GPSThe H24 GPS has the following capabilities:•The receiver uses a dedicated RF connector (U.FL type).•GPS receiver can work simultaneously with a cellular connection.•Cellular diversity receiver is disabled when GPS is active.•Supports an Active GPS antenna only.•The H24 will supply the DC feed to the Active antenna. •The GPS receiver is activated by the +MNMEA AT command.Note: Refer to "H24 Developer’s Guide - AT Commands Reference Manual, P/N 6802986C37" for more information.GPS Receiver PerformanceTime To First Fix (TTFF)•Stand Alone TTFF• Hot start < 1.2 sec average• Warm start < 27.1 sec average• Cold start < 36.7 sec average•Assisted MS-Based TTFF (phone calculations)• Cold start 2.4secSensitivityAutonomous acquisition -145dBm.

H24 Mounting64 H24 - Module Hardware Description April 15, 2010H24 MountingThe H24 incorporates 2 mechanical holes for installing the module onto the application board. The holes are 2.4 millimeters in diameter, which accommodates several types of mechanical elements.Several mechanical approaches may be applied to mount and fasten H24 to the application board. Using M2 screws with suitable washers to mount the module onto spacers, a bracket or chassis is a recommended design.Special attention must be paid to the area surrounding the H24 mounting holes. A grounding pad of 4.4 millimeters in diameter surrounds these holes. The diameter and area of this pad must not be exceeded by any mechanical or electrical element. Several electrical components, which are not shielded, are located near the holes. These components must not be in contact with the mounting elements or with other parts of the application board, and care must be taken to avoid any damage.Figure 4-8 depicts the H24 mounting area.Figure 4-8: H24 Mounting AreaThe holes are used for mechanical mounting of H24 to the application board but also for grounding support. Using conductive elements to install H24, significantly improves the overall grounding of the module and therefore improves the H24 performance and stability.It is required to use screws or other mechanical elements to fasten H24 to the application board, but it is highly recommended to use conductive elements to improve the module's performance.The preferred mounting screw head types are:• "Allen" head with a champer - the best choice.• "Star" head - good.• "Philips" head - may cause damage to nearby components.
