Turning on the DE901-DUAL module To turn on the DE910-DUAL, the pad ON# must be tied low for at least 1 second and then released. The maximum current that can be drained from the ON# pad is 0.1 mA. A simple circuit to power on the module is illustrated below: 4.1.1. Initialization and Activation State Upon turning on DE910-DUAL module, the DE910-DUAL module is not active yet because the boot sequence of DE910-DUAL is still executing internally. It takes about 10 seconds to complete the initialization of the module internally. For this reason, it would be useless to try to access DE910-DUAL during the Initialization state as below. The DE910-DUAL module needs at least 10 seconds after the PWRMON goes High to become operational by reaching the activation state.
HW User Guide Template 1vv0300951 Rev.1 – 2011-12- Reproduction forbidden without written authorization from Telit Communications S.p.A. - All Rights Reserved. Page 20 of 60 During the Initialization state, any kind of AT-command is not available. DTE must wait for the Activation state to communicate with DE910-DUAL. To check if the DE910-DUAL has powered on, the hardware line PWRMON must be monitored. When PWRMON goes high, the module has powered on. NOTE: Do not use any pull up resistor on the ON# line. It is pulled up internally. Using a pull up resistor may bring latch up problems on the DE910-DUAL 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 are inverted. Active low signals are labeled with a name that ends with "#" or with a bar over the name. NOTE: In order to avoid a back powering effect it is recommended to avoid having any HIGH logic level signal applied to the digital pins of the DE910-DUAL module when the module is powered OFF or during an ON/OFF transition. For example: Let us assume you need to drive the ON# pad with a totem pole output of a +1.8/5 V microcontroller (uP_OUT1):

Turning off the DE901-DUAL module Turning off the device can be done in three ways: • By software command (see DE910-DUAL Software User Guide) • By hardware shutdown • By hardware unconditional reboot When the device is shut down by software command or by hardware shutdown, it issues a detach request to the network that informs the network that the device will no longer be reachable. NOTE: In order to avoid a back powering effect it is recommended to avoid having any HIGH logic level signal applied to the digital pins of the DE910-DUAL when the module is powered OFF or during an ON/OFF transition. 4.2.1. Shutdown by Software Command DE910-DUAL can be shut down by a software command. When a shutdown command is sent, DE910-DUAL goes into the finalization state and finally will shut down PWRMON at the end of this state. The period of the finalization state can vary according to the state of the DE910-DUAL so it cannot be fixed definitely. Normally it will be above 10 seconds after sending a shutdown command and DTE should monitor the status of PWRMON to see the actual power off. TIP: To check if the device has powered off hardware line PWRMON must be monitored. When PWRMON goes low, the device has powered off.

Hardware Shutdown To turn OFF DE910-DUAL the pad ON/OFF# must be tied low for at least 2 seconds and then released. The same circuitry and timing for the power on must be used. When the hold time of ON/OFF# is above 2 seconds, the DE910-DUAL goes into the finalization state and finally will shut down PWRMON at the end of this state. The period of the finalization state can vary according to the state of the DE910-DUAL is so it cannot be fixed definitely. Normally it will be above 10 seconds after releasing ON/OFF# and DTE should monitor the status of PWRMON to see the actual power off. TIP: To check if the device has powered off, hardware line PWRMON must be monitored. When PWRMON goes low, the device has powered off.

Hardware Unconditional Reboot To unconditionally restart the DE910-DUAL, the pad RESET# must be tied low for at least 200 milliseconds and then released. A simple circuit to unconditionally reboot the module is illustrated below: RESET# Unconditional Restart impulse GND NOTE: Do not use any pull up resistor on the RESET# line or any totem pole digital output. Using a pull up resistor may bring latch up problems on the DE910-DUAL power regulator and improper functioning of the module. The line RESET# must be connected only in open collector configuration. TIP: The unconditional hardware Restart must always be implemented on the boards and the software must use it only as an emergency exit procedure. For example: Let us assume you need to drive the RESET# pad with a totem pole output of a +1.8/5 V microcontroller (uP_OUT2): 10k +1.8 / 5V

Power Supply The power supply circuitry and board layout are a very important part in the full product design and they strongly reflect on the product’s overall performance. Read carefully the requirements and the guidelines that follow for a proper design. 5.1. Power Supply Requirements The external power supply must be connected to VBATT & VBATT_PA signals and must fulfill the following requirements: Power Supply Nominal Supply Voltage 3.8V Max Supply Voltage 4.2V Supply Voltage Range 3.4V ~ 4.2V NOTE: The Operating Voltage Range MUST never be exceeded. Special care must be taken in order to fulfill min/max supply voltage requirement. NOTE: When the power supply voltage is lower than 3.4V, to turn ON the module, the pad ON# must be tried low for at least 3 seconds. 5.2. General Design Rules The principal guidelines for the Power Supply Design embrace three different design steps: • the electrical design • the thermal design • the PCB layout
HW User Guide Template 1vv0300951 Rev.1 – 2011-12- Reproduction forbidden without written authorization from Telit Communications S.p.A. - All Rights Reserved. Page 26 of 60 5.2.1. Electrical Design Guidelines The electrical design of the power supply depends strongly on the power source where this power is drained. We will distinguish them into two categories: • +5V input (typically PC internal regulator output) • +12V input (typically automotive) • Battery 5.2.1.1. + 5V Input Source Power Supply Design Guidelines • The desired output for the power supply is 3.8V, hence there is not a big difference between the input source and the desired output so a linear regulator can be used. A switching power supply will not be suitable because of the low drop-out requirements. • When using a linear regulator, a proper heat sink must 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 DE910-DUAL. 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 must be inserted close to the power input, in order to save DE910-DUAL from power polarity inversion. An example of linear regulator with 5V input is:
HW User Guide Template 1vv0300951 Rev.1 – 2011-12- Reproduction forbidden without written authorization from Telit Communications S.p.A. - All Rights Reserved. Page 27 of 60 5.2.1.2. +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 suitable and must not be used. A switching power supply would be preferable because of its better efficiency especially with the (TBD) peak current load represented by DE90-DUAL. • When using a switching regulator, a 500 kHz 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 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 in order to cut the current absorption peaks. A 100µF tantalum capacitor is usually suited for this. • 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 must be inserted close to the power input in order to clean the supply from spikes. • A protection diode must be inserted close to the power input in order to save DE910-DUAL from power polarity inversion. This can be the same diode as for spike protection. An example of switching regulator with 12V input is in the schematic below (it is split in 2 parts):

Page 28 of 60 Switching regulator 5.2.1.3. Battery Source Power Supply Design Guidelines The desired nominal output for the power supply is 3.8V and the maximum voltage allowed is 4.2V. A single 3.7V lithium-ion cell battery type is ideal to supply the power to the Telit DE910-DUAL module. WARNING: The three battery cells (Ni/Cd or Ni/MH 3.6V nom. battery types or 4V PB types) MUST NOT be used directly because their maximum voltage can rise over the absolute maximum voltage for the DE910-DUAL modem and damage it. USE only Li-Ion battery types. • A bypass low (usually a 100uF tantalum) ESR capacitor with adequate capacity must be provided in order to cut the current absorption peaks. • Make sure the low ESR capacitor (usually a tantalum) is rated at least 10V. • A protection diode must be inserted close to the power input in order to protect the DE910-DUAL module from power polarity inversions when connecting the battery. • The battery capacity must be at least 500mAh in order to withstand the current peaks of (TBD). The suggested battery capacity is from 500mAh to 1000mAh.
HW User Guide Template 1vv0300951 Rev.1 – 2011-12- Reproduction forbidden without written authorization from Telit Communications S.p.A. - All Rights Reserved. Page 29 of 60 5.2.2. Thermal Design Guidelines The thermal design for the power supply heat sink must be done with the following specifications: • Average current consumption during CDMA 1x / 1xEV-DO transmission @PWR level max : TBD mA • Average GPS current during GPS ON (Power Saving disabled) in DE910-DUAL : TBD mA NOTE: The average consumption during transmissions depends on the power level at which the device is requested to transmit via the network. The average current consumption hence varies significantly. 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 current significantly only during calls. If we assume that the device stays in transmission for short periods of time (let us say few minutes) and then remains for quite a long time in idle (let us say one hour), then the power supply always has the time to cool down between the calls and the heat sink could be smaller than the calculated for TBD mA maximum RMS current. There could even be a simple chip package (no heat sink). Moreover in 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 TBD mA (being usually around TBD mA). 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. The heat generated by the DE910-DUAL must be taken into consideration during transmission at 0.25W max during calls. This generated heat will be mostly conducted to the ground plane under the DE910-DUAL. The application must be able to dissipate heat. In the CDMA 1x/1xEV-DO mode, since DE910-DUAL emits RF signals continuously during transmission, you must pay special attention how to dissipate the heat generated. The current consumption will be up to about TBD mA in CDMA 1x continuously at the maximum TX output power (24.5dBm). Thus, you must arrange the area on the application PCB to be as large as possible under DE910-DUAL. You must mount DE910-DUAL on the large ground area of your application board and make many ground vias to dissipate the heat.
HW User Guide Template 1vv0300951 Rev.1 – 2011-12- Reproduction forbidden without written authorization from Telit Communications S.p.A. - All Rights Reserved. Page 30 of 60 5.2.3. 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 performance. • The bypass low ESR capacitor must be placed close to the Telit DE910-DUAL power input pads, or if the power supply is a switching type, the capacitor can be placed close to the inductor to cut the ripple if the PCB trace from the capacitor to DE910-DUAL is wide enough to ensure a drop-less connection even during the 1A 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 TBD A current peaks are absorbed. While a voltage drop of hundreds of 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 Telit DE910-DUAL, then this noise is not as disturbing and the power supply layout design can be more forgiving. • The PCB traces to DE910-DUAL and the Bypass capacitor must be wide enough to ensure no significant voltage drops occur when the TBD A current peaks are absorbed. This is a must for the same above-mentioned reasons. Try to keep this trace as short as possible. • The PCB traces connecting the switching output to the inductor and the switching diode must be kept as short as possible by placing the inductor and the diode very close to the power switching IC (only for switching power supply). This is done in order to reduce the radiated field (noise) at the switching frequency (usually 100-500 kHz). • The use of a good common ground plane is suggested. • The placement of the power supply on the board must be done in a way to guarantee that the high current return paths in the ground plane are not overlapped to 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.

Les intégrateurs OEM doivent s'assurer que l'utilisateur n'a aucune instruction manuelle pour enlever ou installer le module DE910-DUAL. Les antennes utilisées pour ce module OEM ne doivent pas dépasser un gain de 3dBi pour des configurations mobiles et fixes. 6.2. CDMA antenna – PCB line Guidelines (Antenne CDMA – Directives pour le PCB) • Make sure that the transmission line’s characteristic impedance is 50ohm. Assurez-vous que l'impédance caractéristique de la piste de transmission est 50ohm. • Keep line on the PCB as short as possible since the antenna line loss shall be less than around 0.3dB. Maintenez la piste sur la carte aussi courte que possible, puisque la perte de la piste d'antenne sera inférieure à 0.3dB. • Line geometry should have uniform characteristics, constant cross section, avoid meanders and abrupt curves. La géométrie de la piste doit avoir des caractéristiques uniformes, une section transversale constante, évitant les méandres et les courbes brusques. • Any kind of suitable geometry/structure can be used for implementing the printed transmission line afferent the antenna. N'importe quel genre de géométrie/de structure appropriées peut être utilisée pour mettre en place la piste de transmission afférente à antenne. • If a Ground plane is required in line geometry, that plane has to be continuous and sufficiently extended so the geometry can be as similar as possible to the related canonical model. Si un plan de masse est exigé ce plan doit être continu et suffisamment étendu afin que la géométrie soit le plus semblable possible au modèle canonique exposé. • 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. Gardez, si possible, au moins une couche du PCB utilisée uniquement pour le plan de masse ; Si possible, utilisez cette couche comme plan de masse de référence pour la piste de transmission.

Page 34 of 60 • It is wise to surround (on both sides) of the PCB transmission line with Ground. Avoid having other signal tracks facing directly the antenna line track. Il est sage d'entourer (des deux côtés) la piste de transmission du PCB avec la masse, en évitant d'avoir d'autres pistes de signal faisant face directement à la piste de l'antenne. • Avoid crossing any un-shielded transmission line footprint with other tracks on different layers. Évitez de croiser toute empreinte non protégée avec d’autres pistes sur différentes couches. • The Ground surrounding the antenna line on PCB has to be strictly connected to the main Ground plane by means of via holes (once per 2mm at least) placed close to the ground edges facing line track. La masse entourant la piste de l'antenne sur la carte doit être strictement relié au plan de masse principal par l'intermédiaire de trous (une fois par 2mm au moins), placés près des bords de la terre faisant face à la piste. • Place EM noisy devices as far as possible from DE910-DUAL antenna line. Placez les dispositifs bruyants EM aussi loin que possible de la piste de l’antenne du DE910-DUAL. • Keep the antenna line far away from the DE910-DUAL power supply lines. Maintenez la piste de l'antenne loin des sources d'alimentation du DE910-DUAL. • If EM noisy devices are present on the PCB hosting the DE910-DUAL, such as fast switching ICs, take care of shielding them with a metal frame cover. Si les dispositifs bruyants EM sont présent sur le PCB accueillant le DE910-DUAL, tel qu’un commutateur rapide IC, prennez soin de le protéger avec un capot métallique. • If EM noisy devices are not present around the line use of geometries like Micro strip or Grounded Coplanar Waveguide are preferred since they typically ensure less attenuation when compared to a Strip line having same length. Si aucun dispositif bruyant EM n’est présent autour de la piste, l'utilisation de géométrie comme la bande micro ou le guide d'ondes coplanaire sont recommandés, puisqu'ils assurent typiquement moins d'atténuation comparé à une bande ayant la même longueur. 6.3. CDMA Antenna installation Guidelines (Directives d’installation de l’antenne CDMA) • Install the antenna in a place covered by the CDMA signal. Installez l'antenne dans un endroit couvert par le signal CDMA. • If the device antenna in the application is located greater then 20cm from the human body and there are no co-located transmitters then the Telit FCC/IC approvals can be re-used by the end product. Si le dispositif d'antenne est situé à une distance de plus de 20cm d’une personne et qu’ il n'y a aucun émetteur co-implanté alors les approbations FCC/IC de Telit peuvent être réutilisées par la produit final. • Antenna shall not be installed inside metal cases. L'antenne ne doit pas être installée à l'intérieur de boitiers en métal. • Antenna shall be installed also according antenna manufacture instructions.

GPS Antenna Requirements The use of an active GPS antenna is required to achieve better performance especially when the GPS antenna distance from the module is quite high. The module is provided with a Digital Output signal to enable the external LNA (pad R7). 6.5.1. Combined GPS Antenna The use of combined CDMA/GPS antenna is not recommended. This solution could generate extremely poor GPS reception and also the combined antenna requires additional diplexer and adds a loss in the RF route. 6.5.2. Linear and Patch GPS Antenna Using this type of antenna introduces at least 3dB of loss if compared to a circularly polarized (CP) antenna. Having a spherical gain response instead of a hemispherical gain response could aggravate the multipath behaviour & create poor position accuracy. 6.5.3. LNA and Front End Design Considerations The optional external LNA should be dimensioned to avoid an excessive LNA gain that can introduce jamming, spurious, degrade IIP3, and saturate the receiver. The external active antenna for the Telit DE910-DUAL device must fulfill the following requirements: GPS Antenna Requirements Frequency range 1575.42MHz (GPS L1) Bandwidth +/- 1.023MHz Impedance 50 Ohm When using the Telit DE910-DUAL, since there’s no antenna connector on the module, the antenna must be connected to the DE910-DUAL through the PCB with the antenna pad. In the case that the antenna is not directly connected at the antenna pad of the DE910-DUAL, then a PCB line is required.

GPS Antenna - PCB Line Guidelines • Ensure that the antenna line impedance is 50ohm. • Keep line on the PCB as short as possible to reduce the loss. • Antenna line must have uniform characteristics, constant cross section, avoid 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 PCB with Ground. Avoid having other signal tracks directly facing the antenna line track. • The Ground around the antenna line on PCB has to be strictly connected to the main Ground plane by placing vias once per 2mm at least. • Place EM noisy devices as far as possible from DE910-DUAL antenna line. • Keep the antenna line far away from the DE910-DUAL power supply lines. • If EM noisy devices are around the PCB hosting the DE910-DUAL, such as fast switching ICs, take care of shielding of 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 do not have EM noisy devices around the PCB of DE910-DUAL, use a strip line on the superficial copper layer for the antenna line. The line attenuation will be lower than a buried one. 6.5.5. GPS Antenna – Installation Guidelines • The DE901-DUAL, due to its sensitivity characteristics, is capable of performing a fix inside buildings. (In any case the sensitivity could be affected by the building characteristics i.e. shielding) • The Antenna must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. • Antenna shall not be installed inside metal cases. • Antenna shall be installed also according antenna manufacture instructions.

Serial Port The serial port on the Telit DE910-DUAL is the interface between the module and OEM hardware. 2 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 comport • Microcontroller UART@1.8V(Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmit) • Microcontroller UART@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 work. Serial port 1 on DE910-DUAL is a +1.8V UART with all the 7 RS232 signals. Serial port 2 is a +1.8V Auxiliary UART. The electrical characteristics of the Serial ports are explained in the following tables: Absolute Maximum Ratings -Not Functional Parameter DE910-DUAL Min Max Input level on non-power pin with respect to ground - +2.3V Operating Range - Interface levels Level DE910-DUAL Min Max Input high level 1.17V 2.1 V Input low level -0.3V 0.63V Output high level 1.35V 1.8V Output low level 0V 0.45V

NOTE: In order to avoid a back powering effect it is recommended to avoid having any HIGH logic level signal applied to the digital pins of the DE910-DUAL when the module is powered off or during an ON/OFF transition. NOTE: According to V.24, RX/TX signal names are referred to the application side. Therefore, on the DE910-DUAL side these signal are on the opposite direction: TXD on the application side will be connected to the receive line (here named TXD/ rx_uart ) of the DE910-DUAL serial port and vice versa for RX.

Modem Serial Port 2 Serial port 2 on the DE910-DUAL is a +1.8V UART with only the RX and TX signals. The signals of the DE910-DUAL serial port are: PAD Signal I/O Function Type COMMENT D15 TX_AUX O Auxiliary UART (TX Data to DTE) 1.8V Shared with SPI_MOSI E15 RX_AUX I Auxiliary UART (RX Data to DTE) 1.8V Shared with SPI_MISO NOTE: Due to the shared pins, when the Modem Serial port is used, it is not possible to use the SPI functions. NOTE: In order to avoid a back powering effect it is recommended to avoid having any HIGH logic level signal applied to the digital pins of the DE910-DUAL when the module is powered off or during an ON/OFF transition. 9.3. RS232 Level Translation In order to interface the Telit DE910-DUAL 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 +/-15V Actually, 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. In order to translate the whole set of control lines of the UART you will need: • 5 drivers • 3 receivers

Page 43 of 60 An example of RS232 level adaption circuitry could be accomplished using 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 has to be taken in account 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:

Logic Level Specification Where not specifically stated, all the interface circuits work at 1.8V CMOS logic levels. The following table shows the logic level specifications used in the DE910-DUAL interface circuits: Operating Range - Interface levels (1.8V CMOS) Level DE910-DUAL Min Max Input high level 1.17V 2.1V Input low level -0.3V 0.63V Output high level 1.35V 1.8V Output low level 0V 0.45V 11.2. Using a GPIO Pad as Input The 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 47KΩ pull-up resistor to 1.8V. NOTE: In order 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 is powered OFF or during an ON/OFF transition.

Indication of Network Service Availability The STAT_LED pin status shows information on the network service availability and Call status. In the DE910-DUAL modules, the STAT_LED usually needs an external transistor to drive an external LED. Because of the above, the status indicated in the following table is reversed with respect to the pin status: LED status Device Status Permanently off Device off Fast blinking (Period 1s, Ton 0,5s) Net search / Not registered / turning off Slow blinking (Period 3s, Ton 0,3s) Registered full service Permanently on a call is active 11.6. RTC Bypass output The VRTC pin brings out the Real Time Clock supply, which is separate from the rest of the digital part, allowing only RTC to be active when all the other parts of the device are off. To this power output a backup capacitor can be added in order to increase the RTC autonomy during power off of the battery. NOTE: NO devices must be powered from this pin.
