The HE910 module is provided with by 2 Asynchronous serial ports:
MODEM SERIAL PORT 1 (Main)
MODEM SERIAL PORT 2 (Auxiliary)
Several configurations can be designed for the serial port on the OEM hardware, but the most
common are:
RS232 PC com port
microcontroller UART @ 1.8V (Universal Asynchronous Receive Transmit)
microcontroller UART @ 5V or other voltages different from 1.8V
Depending from the type of serial port on the OEM hardware a level translator circuit may be
needed to make the system work.
On the HE910 the ports are CMOS 1.8..
The electrical characteristics of the Serial ports are explained in the following tables:
