General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO)
SARA-N2 series modules provide the following pins:
GPIO1 pin, working at the V_INT (1.8 V) voltage domain, supporting the Secondary UART data
output functionality (see section
GPIO2 pin, working at the V_INT (1.8 V) voltage domain, not supported by "02" product versions
CTS pin, working at the VCC (3.6 V typical) voltage domain, supporting the Network status
indication and the RING indicator functionality (see section
For more details about how the pins can be configured, see SARA-N2 series AT Commands
Manual
, +UGPIOC, +URING AT commands.
☞
Provide a test point connected to the GPIO1 pin for diagnostic purpose.

Reserved pins (RSVD)
SARA-N2 series modules have pins reserved for future use, marked as RSVD.
All the RSVD pins are to be left unconnected on the application board, except for the RSVD pin number
33 that can be externally connected to ground.
