Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description The following paragraphs describe in details the hardware requirements for properly interfacing and operating the G24-L module. Architecture Overview Figure 2-1 below illustrates the primary functional components of the G24-L.
Architecture Overview The G24-L consists of the following blocks: Digital Block • Micro-controller Unit (MCU) for system and user code execution. • Digital Signal Processor (DSP) for voice and data processing. • Serial communications interfaces. • USB driver interface • UART • SIM card • Digital audio (PCM) bus interface. • General purpose IO signals. Analog Block • Power Management IC (PMIC). • Internal regulators • 1 external regulator for customer use • Analog audio interface management.
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description Operating Modes G24-L incorporates several operating modes. Each operating mode is different in the active features and interfaces. Table 2-1 summarizes the general characteristics of the G24-L operating modes and provides general guidelines for operation. Table 2-1: G24-L Operating Modes Mode Description Features Not Powered VCC supply is disconnected. The G24-L is Off. Any signals connected to the interface connector must be set low or tri-state.
Power Supply Power Supply The G24-L 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 G24-L 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. Table 2-2: Power Supply Signals Pin # Signal Name 1-4 GND 5-8 VCC Description Main ground connection for G24-L module.
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description It is recommended that the voltage drops during a transmit burst will not exceed 300mV, measured on the G24-L interface connector. In any case, the G24-L supply input must not drop below the minimum operating level during a transmit burst. Dropping below the minimum operating voltage may degrade the module performance.
Power Supply Table 2-4: G24-L Current Ratings (Cont.
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description Power On/Off Operation The G24-L 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 G24-L is powered on or off. When this signal is enabled (low), G24-L is powered-off. When it is disabled (high), G24-L is powered-on. The CTS_N signal indicates the serial communications interface (UART) status.
Power On/Off Operation Figure 2-3 illustrates the power-on process using the ON_N signal. Figure 2-3: ON_N Power On Timing Turning the G24-L On Using IGN To turn on G24-L, the IGN signal must be asserted high. The IGN signal must remain high for the duration of the G24-L operation. G24-L powers down when the IGN signal is returned to its low state. Figure 2-4 illustrates the power-on process using the IGN signal.
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description Turning the G24-L Off There are several ways to turn the G24-L off: • Asserting the ON_N signal low for a minimum of 2 seconds. • Setting the IGN signal low. • AT command. Turning the G24-L Off Using ON_N Asserting the ON_N signal low for a minimum of 2 seconds will turn G24-L off. This will initiate a normal power-off process, which includes disabling of all applications interfaces (UART, SIM card, audio, etc.) and closing the network connection.
Power On/Off Operation Figure 2-6 illustrates the power-off timings when using the IGN signal. Figure 2-6: IGN Power Off Timing Turning the G24-L Off Using AT+MRST The AT+MRST command initiates a G24-L system reset operation, which powers off the G24-L. This command emulates the ON_N signal operation for power off. Power Loss shut down A low power shut down occurs when G24-L senses the external power supply is below the minimal operating limit.
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description Low Power Mode The G24-L 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 G24-L network connection is not lost. G24-L continues to monitor the GSM network constantly for any incoming calls or data.
Low Power Mode Important: G24-L will not enter low power mode when USB is operating. Connecting USB to the G24-L will disable the low power mode operation. Serial Interface During Low Power Mode During low power mode the G24-L serial interfaces are disabled. This is indicated by the CTS signal high state. The G24-L wakes up periodically from low power mode to page the GSM network for any incoming calls or data. After this short paging is completed, G24-L returns to low power mode.
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description Temporary Termination of Low Power Mode Temporary termination of low power mode occurs when G24-L switches from Sleep mode to Idle mode for a defined period, and then returns automatically to Sleep 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 The WKUPI_N signal is an active low input, that is set high by default.
Low Power Mode Data on the Serial interface While G24-L is temporarily awake in Idle mode, data may be transmitted on the serial interface. In case data is being transmitted in any direction, G24-L will not return to low power mode. This is regardless of the original wake-up reason or source. G24-L will remain awake while data is transferred.
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description Real Time Clock G24-L incorporates a Real Time Clock (RTC) mechanism that performs many internal functions, one of which is keeping time. The RTC subsystem is embedded in the PMIC and operates in all of the G24-L operating modes (Off, Idle, Sleep), as long as power is supplied above the minimum operating level. The G24-L time and date can be set using the following methods: • Automatically retrieved from the GSM network.
Serial Interfaces Serial Interfaces G24-L includes two completely independent serial communications interfaces, which may be used by the application for several purposes. UART The G24-L UART is a standard 8-signal bus. The UART is used for all the communications with G24-L - AT commands interface, GPRS 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.
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description USB Interface G24-L incorporates a standard Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface. The G24-L USB electrical interface and protocol conform to the USB 1.1 full-speed specifications. G24-L is defined as a USB device on the USB bus and does not support hub or host functionality. USB may be used for standard communications with G24-L, as done through the UART interface. Important: When USB is active, G24's low power mode cannot be operated.
SIM Interface SIM Connection Figure 2-13 illustrates a typical SIM interface connection to G24-L. This connection type is implemented on the G24-L Developer Board, using an FCI SIM tray, PN 7111S1615A05. Figure 2-13: G24-L SIM Interface Table 2-5 details the SIM interface signals. Table 2-5: SIM Interface Signals Pin # Signal Name Description 48 SIM_VCC 2.85V/1.80V Supply to the SIM 44 SIM_RST_N Active low SIM reset signal 52 SIM_DIO Serial input and output data 46 SIM_CLK Serial 3.
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description • A 100Ω series resistor must be placed on the SIM_CLK signal line. • • • • • • • November 15, 2008 The resistor value may slightly change depending on the application design. It is recommended to design component placeholders (unpopulated) for capacitors on the SIM_RST and SIM_DIO signal lines. The SIM card tray should be located, and its signals should be routed, away from any possible EMI sources, such as the RF and digital switching signals.
Audio Interface Audio Interface The G24-L 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 G24-L supports the following audio devices: • Two single-ended and biased mono analog microphone inputs for use in a variety of modes.
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description Figure 2-15 shows the microphone circuit and Table 2-6 gives the microphone specifications. Figure 2-15: Handset Microphone Circuit Important: The microphone circuit design depends on the type of microphone device. A series capacitor is required in case a passive microphone is used, or the application provides a separate bias voltage to an active microphone circuit.
Audio Interface Figure 2-16 shows the microphone circuit and Table 2-7 gives the microphone specifications. Figure 2-16: Headset Microphone Circuit Important: The headset microphone circuit design depends on the type of microphone device. A series capacitor is required in case a passive microphone is used, or the application provides a separate bias voltage to an active microphone circuit.
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description Figure 2-17 shows a differential speaker circuit, Figure 2-18 shows a single-ended speaker circuit and Table 2-8 gives the speaker specifications. Figure 2-17: Differential Speaker Circuit Important: For safety regulations it is important to place series resistors on the speaker output lines, as illustrated in Figure 2-17.
Audio Interface Important: When implementing a single ended speaker design, it is required to place a series capacitor and resistor on the speaker output line, as illustrated in Figure 2-18. The capacitor should be of low tolerance with values of C = 10-22 uF.
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description Alert Loudspeaker Port The alert loudspeaker is the default G24-L power-up ringer. It is used for, but not limited to, sounding the G24-L alerts, melodies, and rings. It is located at pins 63 and 65 on the G24-L interface connector, named ALRT_N and ALRT_P respectively. It is designed with an internal amplifier supplied directly from VCC, which supplies 0.5W to the audio device. It may also be used as a single-ended output referenced to the G24-L analog ground.
Audio Interface Important: When implementing a single ended loudspeaker design, it is required to place a series capacitor and resistor on the alert output line, as illustrated in Figure 2-20. The capacitor should be of low tolerance with values of C = 10-22 uF. The resistor value should be R = 0Ω at the design stage, but may be changed to a different value during audio safety testing, in case that alert level limitation is required.
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description Important: In digital audio mode the input and output gains cannot be controlled by AT commands. Figure 2-21 illustrates the PCM bus format of the voiceband audio configuration. Figure 2-21: Voiceband Mode PCM Bus Coding Format Operating Modes The G24-L audio interface includes 2 modes of operation. Each operating mode defines the audio input and output devices to be used for each audio sound type and their programmable settings.
Audio Interface Advanced Mode Advanced audio mode utilizes G24's unique set of AT commands for advanced audio programming. The expanded AT command set enables to define a specific audio path and setting, which are not part of the default configuration, for each type of audio sound (speech, DTMF tones, rings and alerts).
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description Figure 2-22 describes the audio programming interface options, which are defined by AT commands. Figure 2-22: Audio Programming Interface Audio Algorithms The G24-L audio interface features advanced speech processing algorithms for echo suppression, noise suppression and side-tone feedback Enabling or disabling the algorithms can be configured separately for each audio path and operating mode through the AT command interface.
Audio Interface Gain Control The amplification (gain) level for each input and output device can be configured through AT commands. Both basic and advanced audio modes provide AT commands to set the desired gain levels for each audio path and audio sound type. Table 2-13 gives the gain control features.
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description . Table 2-15: Microphone and Headset Microphone Port Gains AT Command Value 0dBm0 Input Level (mVRMS) Maximum Input Level (mVRMS) 0 87 350 ... ... ... 3 63 250 ... ... ... 16 15 55 ... ... ... 31 4 11 Audio Design The audio quality delivered by G24-L is highly affected by the application audio design, particularly when using the analog audio interface. Therefore, special care must be taken when designing the G24-L audio interface.
Audio Interface Analog Ground The G24-L interface incorporates a dedicated analog ground contact, AGND pin 59, which is internally connected to the G24's ground. 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 G24-L, which is separated from the noisy digital ground of the application.
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description A/D Interface The G24-L includes 4 Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) signals with 8-bit resolution, for environmental and electrical measurements. The ADC signals measure an analog DC voltage level on their inputs which is converted to a 8-bit digital value for further processing by G24-L or the user application. The A/D signals operation and reporting mechanism is defined by the AT+MMAD command.
A/D Interface Important: In the G24-LC Charger Model configuration, the ADC3 signal is allocated to a battery temperature measurement sensor and is not intended for general use. Table 2-17 gives the GPAD specifications. Table 2-17: GPAD Specifications Parameter Conditions Maximum Input Voltage Operating range Measurement Voltage ADC range Min Max Unit -0.1 2.75 V 0 2.
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description This function is described in detail in “Battery Charger Interface” on page 47.
Controls and Indicators Interface Controls and Indicators Interface The G24-L incorporates several interface signals for controlling and monitoring the module's operation. The following paragraphs describes these signals and their operation. Table 2-20 gives a description of the controls and indicators signals. Table 2-20: Controls and Indicators Connector Pin Signal Name Description 25 RESET_N G24-L system reset output indicator. When high, G24-L is operating. 27 VREF 2.80V regulated output.
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description Important: The VREF regulator is powered from the G24's main power supply, and therefore any current sourced through this regulator originates from the G24-L VCC supply. The overall VCC current consumed by G24-L is directly affected by the VREF operation. The G24-L current consumption rises with respect to the current sourced through VREF. Figure 2-23 shows the VREF power-up timing. Figure 2-23: VREF Power-up Timing Table 2-21 gives the VREF specifications.
Controls and Indicators Interface 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 2-24): • ATS102 - Defines the delay time in milliseconds that G24-L will wait, after asserting the WKUPO_N signal low, before sending data on the serial interface.
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description Antenna Detection The G24-L incorporates an internal antenna detection circuit, which senses the physical connection and removal of an antenna or antenna circuit on the G24-L antenna connector. The antenna detection state is reported to the application through the ANT_DET output signal, and may also be queried by the ATS97 command. The detection circuit senses DC resistance to ground on the G24-L antenna connector.
Antenna Interface Antenna Interface The G24-L antenna connector is the RF interface to the GSM network. The antenna interface is terminated by an MMCX connector type, which is 50Ω impedance matched at the relevant GSM frequencies. The antenna or antenna application must be installed properly to achieve best performance. Table 2-22 gives the antenna interface specifications.
Chapter 2: Hardware Interface Description Battery Charger Interface General G24-LC incorporates a charging circuit to support battery operated applications. The battery charger interface includes all the necessary circuitry and signals to facilitate operation and charging of a single cell 3.7V Lithium-Ion battery pack, including safety and temperature controls. The battery charger interface is designed for a direct and seamless connection to the battery pack and external charger.
Battery Charger Interface The battery and charger interface signals are described in the table below: Table 2-23: Battery and Charger Interface Signals Pin # Signal Name Description 1-4 GND Module Ground Connect to battery BATT(-) contact. 5-8 VCC Module Supply Connect to battery BATT(+) contact. 10 VBUS 51 IGN External charger input VBUS and IGN signals are connected internally in the G24-LC. 47 ADC3 Battery temperature measurement.
