Serial Port
The serial ports on the Telit DE910 are the interface between the module and OEM hardware.
2 serial ports are available on the module:
Modem Serial Port 1 (Main)
Modem Serial Port 2 (Auxiliary)
Several configurations can be designed for the serial port on the OEM hardware.
The most common are:
RS232 PC comport
Microcontroller [email protected](Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmit)
Microcontroller UART@5V or other voltages different from 1.8V
Depending on the type of serial port on the OEM hardware, a level translator circuit may be
needed to make the system work.
Serial port 1 is a +1.8V UART with all the 7 RS232 signals.
Serial port 2 is a +1.8V Auxiliary
UART.
The electrical characteristics of the serial port are explained in the following tables:
