If a 3.0 V Application Processor is used, appropriate unidirectional voltage translators must be provided using the
module
V_INT
output as 1.8 V supply, as described in Figure 36.

If only
TxD
,
RxD
,
RTS
and
CTS
lines are provided, as implemented in Figure 35 and in Figure 36, and if HW
flow-control is enabled (AT&K3, default setting), the power saving can be activated in this way:
AT+UPSV=1: the module automatically enters the low power idle-mode whenever possible and the UART
interface is periodically enabled, as described in section 1.9.2.3, reaching low current consumption.
With this configuration, when the module is in idle-mode, data transmitted by the DTE will be buffered by
the DTE and will be correctly received by the module when active-mode is entered.
If the HW flow-control is disabled (AT&K0), it is recommended to enable the power saving in this way:
AT+UPSV=2: the module automatically enters the low power idle-mode whenever possible and the UART
interface is enabled by the
RTS
line, as described in section 1.9.2.3, reaching very low current consumption.
With this configuration, when the module is in idle-mode, the UART is re-enabled 20 ms after
RTS
has been
set ON, and the recognition of subsequent characters is guaranteed until the module is in active-mode.
Providing the TxD and RxD lines only (not using the complete V24 link)
If the functionality of the

RTS
,
DSR
,
DCD
,
RI
and
DTR
lines is not required in the application, or the lines
are not available:
Connect the module
RTS
input line to GND or to the
CTS
output line of the module: since the module
requires
RTS
active (low electrical level) if HW flow-control is enabled (AT&K3, that is the default setting),
the pin can be connected using a 0
Ω
series resistor to GND or to the active module
CTS
(low electrical level)
when the module is in active mode, the UART interface is enabled and the HW flow-control is enabled
Connect the module
DTR
input line to GND, to robustly fix the logic level
Leave

and
RI
lines of the module unconnected and floating
