I65/I56I HARDWARE DESCRIPTION VERSION 1.00 modems and DSU/CSU devices generally use DCE connectors. As a general rule, DTE ports connect to DCE ports via straight through pinned cables. In other words, a DTE port never connects directly to another DTE port. In a similar manner, a DCE port never connects directly to another DCE port. The signalling definitions were written from the perspective of the DTE device; therefore, a Receive Data signal becomes an input to DTE but an output from DCE.
I65/I56I HARDWARE DESCRIPTION VERSION 1.00 The values stated below are measured directly at the reference points on the I56/I56i board. The POWER and (CRG option) pins serve as control signals for charging a Li-Ion battery. Signal name I/O Parameter Description VC5+ I 4.5 V...5,5 V, Ityp ≤ 1.6 A during Positive operating transmit burst. The minimum voltage. operating voltage must not fall below 4.5 V, not even in case of voltage drop.
I65/I56I HARDWARE DESCRIPTION VERSION 1.00 Figure 4: Power-on by ignition signal If the module is configured to a fix baud rate, the GSM/GPRS engine of the I56/I56i will send the result code ^SYSSTART to indicate that it is ready to operate. This result code does not appear when autobauding is active. Ensure that VVC5 does not fall below 4,7 V while the SOFT_ON line is driven. Otherwise the module cannot be activated.
I65/I56I HARDWARE DESCRIPTION VERSION 1.00 Normal shutdown procedure: Software controlled by sending the AT^SMSO command over the serial application interface. See chapter 5.4.3.5. Emergency shutdown: Hardware driven by switching the RESET line (Pin 26) of the board-to-board connector to ground = immediate shutdown of supply voltages. Automatic shutdown: See chapter 5.4.4 a) Takes effect if under voltage is detected. b) Takes effect if I56/I56i board temperature exceeds critical limit. 5.4.3.
I65/I56I HARDWARE DESCRIPTION VERSION 1.00 RESET pin causes the loss of all information stored in the volatile memory since power is cut off immediately. Therefore, this procedure is intended only for use in case of emergency, e.g. if I56/I56i fails to shut down properly. This signal is used to force a reset procedure by providing low level (driven to ground) during at least 3.2 s. This signal has to be considered as an emergency reset only.
I65/I56I HARDWARE DESCRIPTION VERSION 1.00 5.4.4.1 Temperature dependent shutdown The board temperature is constantly monitored by an internal NTC resistor located on the PCB. The NTC that detects the battery temperature must be part of the battery pack circuit as described in chapter 5.6. The values detected by either NTC resistor are measured directly on the board or the battery and therefore, are not fully identical with the ambient temperature.
I65/I56I HARDWARE DESCRIPTION VERSION 1.00 I56/I56i switches off. ^SCTM_B: -2 Alert: Tamb of board equal or below under temperature limit. I56/I56i switches off. Table 11: Automatic shutdown 5.4.4.2 Temperature control during emergency call If the temperature limit is exceeded while an emergency call is in progress the engine continues to measure the temperature, but deactivates the shutdown functionality.
I65/I56I HARDWARE DESCRIPTION VERSION 1.00 5.5 Automatic GPRS Multislot Class change Temperature control is also effective for operation in GPRS Multislot class 10. If the board temperature increases to the limit specified for restricted operation (see 3.3 for temperature limits known as restricted operating) while data are transmitted over GPRS, the module automatically reverts from GPRS Multislot class 10 (3 RX x 2 TX) to class 8 (4 RX x 1 TX).
I65/I56I HARDWARE DESCRIPTION 5.6.1 VERSION 1.00 Power-Set-Input This input pin has to be used if a rechargeable Li-Ion battery is connected to the module. The circuit diagram how to connect a Li-Ion battery to the module is shown in chapter 5.6. If the PWR-SET pin is kept open (low level), the internal regulator is active which drops internally the input voltage down to 3.7 V DC and supplies the GSM/GPRS core with 3.7 V DC (see figure below, the PWR-SET pin is low “L” and the regulator is active).
I65/I56I HARDWARE DESCRIPTION VERSION 1.00 Li-Ion battery pack specified for a maximum charging voltage of 4.2 V and a capacity of 800 mAh. Battery packs with a capacity down to 600 mAh or more than 800 mAh are allowed, too. Since charging and discharging largely depend on the battery temperature, the battery pack should include a NTC resistor. If the NTC is not inside the battery it must be in thermal contact with the battery. The NTC resistor must be connected between BAT_TEMP and GND.

I65/I56I HARDWARE DESCRIPTION VERSION 1.00 application. In this case, the application can be designed to receive an interrupt when a falling edge on RING_0 occurs. This solution is most effective, particularly, for waking up an application from power saving. Note that if the RI_ line is not wired, the application would be required to permanently poll the data and status lines of the serial interface at the expense of a higher current consumption.
I65/I56I HARDWARE DESCRIPTION VERSION 1.00 Figure 20: URC transmission Function Ring indication Pin RING_0 Status 0 1 Description SLEEP mode CFUN=0 or CYCLIC SLEEP mode CFUN=5 or 6, the module is caused to wake up to full functionality. If CFUN=7 or 8, power saving is resumed after URC transmission or end of call. No operation Table 17: ASC0 ring signal 5.
I65/I56I HARDWARE DESCRIPTION VERSION 1.00 from the base station and then immediately resumes power saving. Level 0 is called NON-CYCLIC SLEEP mode, since the serial interface is not alternatingly made accessible as in CYCLIC SLEEP mode. The first wake-up event fully activates the module, enables the serial interface and terminates the power saving mode. In short, it takes the GSM/GPRS engine of the I56/I56i back to the highest level of functionality =1.
I65/I56I HARDWARE DESCRIPTION VERSION 1.00 5.9.5 Timing of the CTS signal in CYCLIC SLEEP modes The CTS signal is enabled in synchrony with the paging cycle of module. It goes active low each time when the module starts listening to a paging message block from the base station. The timing of the paging cycle varies with the base station. The duration of a paging interval can be calculated from the following formula: 4.615 ms (TDMA frame duration) * 51 (number of frames) * DRX value.
