Cinterion® PDS8 Hardware Interface Overview Page 10 of 35 2 Interface Characteristics 2 Interface Characteristics PDS8 is equipped with an SMT application interface that connects to the external application. The SMT application interface incorporates the various application interfaces as well as the RF antenna interface. 2.1 Application Interface 2.1.1 USB Interface PDS8 supports a USB 2.0 High Speed (480Mbit/s) device interface that is Full Speed (12Mbit/s) compliant.
Cinterion® PDS8 Hardware Interface Overview Page 11 of 35 2.1 Application Interface 2.1.2 Serial Interface ASC0 PDS8 offers an 8-wire unbalanced, asynchronous modem interface ASC0 con- forming to ITU-T V.24 protocol DCE signalling. The electrical characteristics do not comply with ITU-T V.28. The significant levels are 0V (for low data bit or active state) and 1.8V (for high data bit or inactive state). PDS8 is designed for use as a DCE.
Cinterion® PDS8 Hardware Interface Overview Page 12 of 35 2.1 Application Interface 2.1.3 UICC/SIM/USIM Interface PDS8 has an integrated UICC/SIM/USIM interface compatible with the 3GPP 31.102 and ETSI 102 221. This is wired to the host interface in order to be connected to an external SIM card holder. Five pads on the SMT application interface are reserved for the SIM interface. The UICC/SIM/USIM interface supports 3V and 1.8V SIM cards.

V180 CCIN CCVCC SIM 220nF 1nF CCRST CCIO CCCLK Figure 4: External UICC/SIM/USIM card holder circuit The total cable length between the SMT application interface pads on PDS8 and the pads of the external SIM card holder must not exceed 100mm in order to meet the specifi- cations of 3GPP TS 51.
Cinterion® PDS8 Hardware Interface Overview Page 14 of 35 2.1 Application Interface 2.1.4 Digital Audio Interface PDS8‘s digital audio interface (DAI) can be used to connect audio devices capable of pulse code modulation (PCM). 2.1.5 GPIO Interface PDS8 offers a GPIO interface with 8 GPIO lines. The GPIO lines are shared with other interfaces or functions: Fast shutdown (see Section 2.1.11.4), the PWM functionality (see Section 2.1.9), an pulse counter (see Section 2.1.10).
Cinterion® PDS8 Hardware Interface Overview Page 15 of 35 2.1 Application Interface 2.1.6 I2C Interface I2C is a serial, 8-bit oriented data transfer bus for bit rates up to 400kbps in Fast mode. It consists of two lines, the serial data line I2CDAT and the serial clock line I2CCLK. The module acts as a single master device, e.g. the clock I2CCLK is driven by the module. I2CDAT is a bi-directional line.
Cinterion® PDS8 Hardware Interface Overview Page 16 of 35 2.1 Application Interface 2.1.8 Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) ADC1_IN is used for general purpose voltage measurements. ADC1_IN can be configured and read by AT command - see [1]. 2.1.9 PWM Interfaces The GPIO6 and GPIO7 interface lines can be configured as Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) interface lines PWM1 and PWM2. The PWM interface lines can be used, for example, to connect buzzers.
Cinterion® PDS8 Hardware Interface Overview Page 17 of 35 2.2 RF Antenna Interface 2.2 RF Antenna Interface The RF interface has an impedance of 50. PDS8 is capable of sustaining a total mismatch at the antenna line without any damage, even when transmitting at maximum RF power. The external antenna must be matched properly to achieve best performance regarding radiated power, modulation accuracy and harmonic suppression.

Table 4: Overview of operating modes Mode Function GSM / Normal operation GPRS / UMTS / HSPA SLEEP No call is in progress and the USB connection is suspended by host (or is not present) and no active communication via ASC0.
Cinterion® PDS8 Hardware Interface Overview Page 19 of 35 3.2 Power Supply 3.2 Power Supply PDS8 needs to be connected to a power supply at the SMT application interface - 6 lines BATT+, and GND. There are two separate voltage domains for BATT+: • BATT+BB with a line for the general power management. • BATT+RF with a line for the GSM power amplifier supply. Please note that throughout the document BATT+ refers to both voltage domains and power supply lines - BATT+BB and BATT+RF.
