In order to avoid damaging internal flash, please do not switch off the power supply when the module
works normally. Only after the module is shut down by PWRKEY or AT command, then the power supply
can be cut off.

Turn on/off the module
The output voltage is 0.8V
because of the diode drop in
the Qualcomm chipset.
When EG25-G is in power-down mode, it can be turned on to normal mode by driving the PWRKEY pin to
a low level for at least 500ms. It is recommended to use an open drain/collector driver to control the
PWRKEY. After STATUS pin (require external pull-up) outputs a low level, PWRKEY pin can be released.
A simple reference circuit is illustrated in the following figure.
