Product Technical Specification & Customer Design Guidelines Interfaces The Q64 UART1 is designed to operate with all serial interface signals. It is mandatory to use RTS1 and CTS1 for hardware flow control in order to avoid data corruption during transmission. Warning: If you want to activate Power down mode (Wavecom 32K mode) in your ® Open AT application, you need to connect the DTR1 to a GPIO.

The connection between the Q64 pins and the speaker/earpiece must be designed to keep the serial impedance lower than 3 Ω in the differential mode. 3.11.4.2.
Product Technical Specification & Customer Design Guidelines Interfaces 3.11.4.2.3 AUXO Connection Typical implementation: Figure 21: Example of AUXO connection An capacitor C1 (4.7 μF < C1 < 47 μF) can be added (optional)(depending on speaker characteristics and output power).

Product Technical Specification & Customer Design Guidelines Interfaces 3.13 Battery Charging Interface The Q64 Wireless CPU® supports one battery charging circuit, two algorithms and one hardware charging mode (pre-charging) for 3 battery technologies: • Ni-Cd • Ni-Mh (Nickel-Metal Hydride) with algorithm 0 • Li-Ion (Nickel-Cadmium) with algorithm 0 (Lithium-Ion) with algorithm 1 The two algorithms control a switch, which connects the CHG_IN signal to the VCC signal.
Product Technical Specification & Customer Design Guidelines Interfaces A dedicated ADC input, ADIN1/ BAT-TEMP pin 26, for temperature monitoring (only for Li-Ion battery technologies). To use the charging functionality, three items of hardware are required: ¾ A charger power supply This provides a DC power supply limited to 800mA and with a voltage range according to the battery chosen and the Q64 specification. ¾ A battery The charging functionality must be used with rechargeable batteries only.
Product Technical Specification & Customer Design Guidelines Interfaces 3.13.3 Li-Ion Charging Algorithm The Li-Ion algorithm provides battery temperature monitoring, which is highly recommended to prevent battery damage during the charging phase. The Li-Ion charger algorithm can be divided in three phases: 1. Constant charge 2. Beginning of pulse charge 3.
Product Technical Specification & Customer Design Guidelines Interfaces 3.13.4 Controlled Pre-charging Hardware There is another charging mode, Pre-charging mode, which is hardware-controlled and not software-controlled. This mode is only activated when the Wireless CPU® is OFF and when VCC is in the voltage range of 2.8V < VBATT < 3.2V. The power supply charger must be connected to CHG_IN (pin 11). In Pre-charging mode, the battery is charged with a direct current of 50mA.
Product Technical Specification & Customer Design Guidelines Interfaces 3.14 ON / OFF Signal This input is used to switch ON or OFF the Wireless CPU®. A low level signal must be provided on the pin ON/OFF to switch ON the Wireless CPU®. The voltage of this signal must be maintained at low level during a minimum of 1500ms. This signal can be left at high level until switched off. To power OFF the Wireless CPU®, the steps depends on whether the Q64 has GR plug-in embedded.
Product Technical Specification & Customer Design Guidelines Interfaces Figure 29: ON/OFF circuitry inside Q64 3.14.3 Application Figure 30: Example of ON/OFF pin connection 3.14.3.1 Power-ON Whatever the Q64 has embedded GR plug-in or not, once the Wireless CPU® is powered, the application must set the ON/OFF signal to low to start the Wireless CPU® power-ON sequence. The ON/OFF signal must be held low during a minimum delay of Ton/off-hold (Minimum hold delay on the ON/OFF signal) to power-ON.
Product Technical Specification & Customer Design Guidelines Interfaces Figure 31 : Power-ON sequence (no PIN code activated) The duration of the firmware power-up sequence depends on: • the need to perform a recovery sequence if the power has been lost during a flash memory modification.
Product Technical Specification & Customer Design Guidelines Interfaces Proceeding thus by software detection will always prevent the application from deasserting the ON/OFF signal too early. If WIND indicators are disabled or AT commands unavailable or not used, it is still possible to de-assert ON/OFF after a delay long enough (Ton/off-hold) to ensure that the firmware has already completed its power-up initialization.
Product Technical Specification & Customer Design Guidelines Interfaces Once the "OK" response is issued by the Wireless CPU®, the power supply can be switched off. If GR plug-in is used, a level transition from high level to low level can be acted as a command to de-register from the network and enable the power-OFF sequence. And then the application must set the ON/OFF signal to high level in order to power-OFF the Q64 Wireless CPU® correctly.
