Voltage
2.1 V to 3.63 V
Working mode
Active: The NM1 module is active and can send and receive data. All functions are available. An active NM1 module can switch to the idle or PSM mode. Idle: The NM1 module is in idle state, connected to a network, and can receive paging messages. An idle NM1 module can switch to the active or PSM mode. PSM: Only RTC of the module works, and the module is disconnected from the network and cannot receive paging messages. The NM1 module is woken up from the PSM mode when the timer expires or the PWRKEY and PSM_EINT* pins are lowered.
Power-saving
In PSM mode, the NM1 module consumes the minimum power of 5 µA. The PSM mode is provided to reduce power consumption and prolong the power supply duration of the battery.
Serial port
Primary serial interface: transmits AT commands and data. The default baud rate is 115.2 kbit/s. It can also be used for firmware upgrade and the baud rate is 921.6 kbit/s. Debugging serial interface: exports log information for software commissioning. Auxiliary serial interface: transmits AT commands and data.
Working current
TBD
RTC
Supported
ADC*
The NM1 module has a 10-bit analog-digit conversion input interface to measure the voltage. This interface works in both active and idle modes.
RI signal*
When the NM1 module receives SMS messages or exports URC, it notifies the DTE over the RI pin.
Network status indication*
The NETLIGHT signal indicates the module's network connection status.

2.2 Technical Parameters
Table 2-1 describes mechanical features, baseband features, RF features, technical standards, and environment
features of the NM1 module.
Table 2-1 Technical parameters of the NM1 module
Note:
1. When the NM1 module works at a temperature within the normal operating temperature range1, its performance complies with
https://www.tuya.com
3GPP standards.
2. When the NM1 module works at a temperature within the extended operating temperature range2, it works properly, has the SMS* and data transmission functions, and will not have unrecoverable faults. The RF spectrum and network are not affected. Several indicators, for example, the output power, may exceed the 3GPP limits. After the operating temperature is restored to the normal operating temperature, all NM1 module indicators can meet 3GPP standard requirements.
3. A feature with an asterisk (*) is being developed.
