Switch-on events
When the SARA-N2 series modules are in the non-powered mode (i.e. switched off, with the
VCC
module supply not applied), the switch on routine of the module can be triggered by:
•
Rising edge on the
VCC
supply input to a valid voltage value for module supply, starting from a
voltage value lower than 1.8 V, so that the module switches on applying a proper
VCC
supply within
the normal operating range (see SARA-N2 series data sheet
).
•
Alternately, the
RESET_N
pin can be held low during the
VCC
rising edge, so that the module
switches on by releasing the
RESET_N
pin when the
VCC
voltage stabilizes at its nominal value
within the normal range.
When the SARA-N3 series modules are in the non-powered mode (i.e. switched off, with the
VCC
module supply not applied), the switch on routine of the module can be triggered by:
•
Applying a
VCC
supply within the normal operating range of the module, and then forcing a low
level on the
PWR_ON
input pin (normally high due to internal pull-up) for a valid time period (see
•
Alternately, the
RESET_N
pin can be held low during the
VCC
rising edge, so that the module
switches on by releasing the
RESET_N
pin when the
VCC
voltage stabilizes at its nominal value
within the normal range.
When the SARA-N3 series modules are in power off mode (i.e. switched off, with valid
VCC
supply
applied), the switch on routine of the module can be triggered by:
•
Forcing a low level on the
PWR_ON
input pin (normally high due to internal pull-up) for a valid time
period (see SARA-N3 series data sheet
When the SARA-N3 series modules are in deep sleep mode (i.e. in the Power Saving Mode defined by
3GPP Rel. 13, with valid
VCC
supply applied), the wake-up routine of the module can be triggered by:
•
Forcing a low level on the
PWR_ON
input pin (normally high due to internal pull-up) for a valid time
period (see SARA-N3 series data sheet
As illustrated in
, the
PWR_ON
line of SARA-N3 series modules is equipped with an internal
pull-up.
