General purpose Input/Output 

 
SIM802 supports two general purpose output signal Pins. These Pins can be configured through 
AT command “AT+CGPIO” in users’ application to high voltage level or low voltage level. For 
detail of this AT command, please refer to 

document [1]

3.14 ADC 

SIM802 provide one auxiliary ADC (General purpose analog to digital converter.) as voltage 
input Pin, which can be used to detect the values of some external items such as voltage, 
temperature etc. User can use AT command “AT+RADC” to read the voltage value added on 
ADC Pin. For detail of this AT command, please refer to

 document [1].
