integration. It has an integrated SIM card holder as well as a standard RF connector type MMCX. The concept
of the integrated modem has been defined to integrate on a sole device:
·a single connector has been used that is standard and easy to find (it is supplied worldwide);
this connector includes all of the modem’s analog and digital connections
·One standard easy to find RF connector. See RF connector section in Chapter 3: Electrical
Characteristics;
·One SIM card holder. See SIM section in Chapter 3: Electrical Characteristics.

Feature Descriptions
Integration Reduces Space, Power and Cost. The ModemModule GSM/GPRS integrates the
controller, RF transceiver, and antenna interface in one compact unit. This integration requires low power,
occupies very little space, and provides an overall reduction in costs.
Reduces Development Time. The ModemModule GSM/GPRS can make your existing and next
generation device, machine, or system, communication-ready without requiring significant hardware
changes to its design. It actually provides faster time-to-market because it relieves the burden and expense
of obtaining network and RF approvals. This complete, ready-to-integrate wireless module allows you to
enhance your product while you focus on developing its core features.

Power Supply
The main power supply is provided through a double connection. These connections are respectively pins 3 and
4 for the +5V and the pins 1 and 2 for the ground (GND). The pins 6, 21, and 24 are also ground connection in
order to produce a proper ground plane.
A 5V +/-5% - 1A power is strictly required to supply the modem. Otherwise, serious dysfunctions may appear.
However, the modem does not have to constantly deliver 1A current at 5V on this power supply.
This power supply is internally regulated to a nominal value VBATT.
