3.4.1.1. Turn on the Module Through GPIO Controlled FULL_CARD_POWER_OFF#
It is recommended to use a GPIO from host to control FULL_CARD_POWER_OFF#. A simple reference
circuit is illustrated in the following figure.

3.4.1.2.
Turn on the Module Automatically
If FULL_CARD_POWER_OFF# is pulled up to 3.3V with a
5kΩ~10kΩ resistor, the module will be
powered on automatically when the power supply for VCC is applied, and will be powered off when the
power supply is removed.
A reference circuit is shown in the following figure.
