2 Interface Characteristics
EHS5-E/EHS5-US is equipped with an SMT application interface that connects to the external
application. The SMT application interface incorporates the various application interfaces as
well as the RF antenna interface.
2.1 Application Interface
2.1.1 USB Interface
EHS5-E/EHS5-US supports a USB 2.0 High Speed (480Mbit/s) device interface that is Full
Speed (12Mbit/s) compliant. The USB interface is primarily intended for use as command and
data interface and for downloading firmware.
The USB host is responsible for supplying the VUSB_IN line. This line is for voltage detection
only. The USB part (driver and transceiver) is supplied by means of BATT+. This is because
EHS5-E/EHS5-US is designed as a self-powered device compliant with the “Universal Serial
Bus Specification Revision 2.0”
1
.
To properly connect the module's USB interface to the host a USB 2.0 compatible connector is
required. Furthermore, the USB modem driver distributed with EHS5-E/EHS5-US needs to be
Figure 2: USB circuit
installed.

2.1 Application Interface

While the USB connection is active, the module will not change into SLEEP Mode. To enable
switching into SLEEP mode the USB host must bring its USB interface into Suspend state. Also, VUSB_IN should always be kept enabled for this functionality. See “Universal Serial Bus
Specification Revision 2.0“
EHS5-US will then generate a remote wake up request to resume the USB co nnection (active
low).
As an alternative to the regular USB remote wakeup mechanism it is possible to employ the
RING0 line to wake up the host application. The benefit is that the RING0 line can wake up the
host application in case of incoming calls or other events signalized by URCs while the USB
interface is suspended or shut down.

2.1.2 Serial Interface ASC0
EHS5-E/EHS5-US offers an 8-wire unbalanced, asynchronous modem interface ASC0 conforming to ITU-T V.24 protocol DCE signalling. The electrical characteristics do not comply with
ITU-T V.28. The significant levels are 0V (for low data bit or active state) and 1.8V (for high data
bit or inactive state).
EHS5-E/EHS5-US is designed for use as a DCE. Based on the conventions for DCE-DTE connections it communicates with the customer application (DTE) using the following signals:
• Port TXD @ application sends data to the module’s TXD0 signal line
• Port RXD @ application receives data from the module’s RXD0 signal line
Figure 3: Serial interface ASC0
Features:
• Includes the data lines TXD0 and RXD0, t he status line s RTS0 and CTS0 and, in addition,
the modem control lines DTR0, DSR0, DCD0 and RING0.
• ASC0 is designed for controlling GSM/UMTS voice calls, transferring data and for controlling the module with AT commands.
• Full multiplexing capability allows the interface to be partitioned into virtual channels.
