2 EDGE Wireless Modem

2.1 EDGE Wireless Modem in a Communication System

Figure 2.1-1 illustrates the main blocks of a wireless communication system using the

EDGE Daughter Card embedded in a host device. It also shows the communication principles of the system. The definitions in the figure, as used elsewhere in this manual, are in accordance with the recommendations of GSM 07.07.

• The MS (mobile station) represents the EDGE Daughter Card modem plus SIM card.

• The modem excluding SIM card, is known as the ME (mobile equipment).

• The TE (terminal equipment) is a micro-controller (i.e., the host) and is a part of the

application.

Figure 2.1-1 Main Blocks in a Wireless System

In accordance with the recommendations of ITU-T (International Telecommunication Union - Telecommunications Standardisation Sector) V.24, the TE communicates with the MS over a serial interface. This is the Universal Serial Bus (USB).

The functions of the EDGE modem follow the recommendations provided by ETSI (European Telecommunications Standards Institute) and ITU-T.

ETSI specifies a set of AT commands for controlling the GSM/E-GSM element of the modem; these commands are supplemented by Sony Ericsson specific commands.

Figure 2.1-2 Interface between Daughter Card and Application illustrates the interface between the Daughter Card and the host application. Each interface signal is described in Section 3.

2. Design Verification Testing (DVT) and Operational compliance between these temperature ranges.

2.4 SIM Card

An external SIM card with 3V or 1.8V technology, can be connected to the modem via the SIM interface pins.

2.5 Other Features

The EDGE modem supports a number of additional features including

• 07.10 multiplexing (normal mode)

• SIM application tool kit

2.6 Precautions

The EDGE modem device is ESD protected up to 4K V contact and 8K V air discharge. It is recommended that integrators follow electronic device handling precautions when working with any electronic device system to ensure no damage occurs to the host or the radio device.

The EDGE modem is integrated on to the daughter card. When the card is mounted in the host it is the responsibility of the integrator to ensure that static discharge protection beyond the voltages specified above are designed in to the host product. If exposed, the antenna is a vulnerable contact point for ESD.

4.2 Electrical Interface Detail Format

Details of each electrical interface is contained in paragraph 5 (beginning page 19). The description of each interface follows a common format. An example is shown below:

Interface Name

This is the name of the interface; usually this is the actual name found in the pin list;

sometimes this is a collective name for a number of signals, such as the example shown here for a UART.

Function:

This identifies the basic function of the interface; some interfaces are grouped

according to their functional sub-class.

Description:

The description contains a basic overview of the interface and its functional

relationship with the host.

Pin Numbers:

All pin numbers associated with the interface are listed; these will not necessarily

be in numerical order but may be arranged to coincide with signal name list.

Signal Names:

All sigal names associated with the interface exactly as shown in the pin list; the

signal names also contain information on signal flow direction.

If not used:

This gives specific details, for each signal, of how to terminate the physical

connection if it is not required by the host; failure to observe this convention may result in unstable operation of the EDGE modem. (This may not be necessary in the host application since all signals have a defined function).

5 Electrical Interface

This section describes each signal line of the electrical interface between the EDGE modem and the host application. A summary of the function of each signal is provided, together with any additional relevant information.

Signals are described from the perspective of the EDGE modem and Daughter Card circuitry. Consequently signals described as input are inputs to the modem, driven by the host [host⇒modem]. Likewise, signals described as output are driven by the modem in to the host [modem⇒host]. Bi-directional signal flow (I/O) is indicated by a double-headed arrow [modem⇔host]. In some instances the [daughter card] will be identified if the modem circuitry is not directly involved, or where additional interface circuitry resides between the host and the modem.

Signals which are pulled internally are identified in parentheses beside the signal name as either (PU)=Pulled Up or (PD)=Pulled Down. Signals with no designation are not pulled either way.

5.2.1 UVP

Function: Under voltage protection

Description: Status indicator to host of potential malfunction in Daughter Card

circuitry

Pin Number: 23

Signal Name: UVP (PD) [daughter card⇒host]

If not used: Required

Details:

The Daughter Card has FET circuitry which uses 3V3 as a reference, driving an output to the host indicating the voltage condition of the of VBAT (the modem supply voltage). A resistive divider connected to VBATT presents a very low V

to the UVP transistor. This

presents a steady state low voltage output under normal VBAT conditions with external pulldown circuitry. In the event of a short circuit or high current fault condition on the Daughter Card, the voltage drop from the switching regulator will bias the UVP transistor on and present a high output to the host monitoring circuit.

The UVP signal should be pulled low by the application circuit for correct function.

25(31)

A falling edge indicates an alert or message. The signal remains low for a period of time before going high. An SMS-page or unsolicited response/result code generates one pulse (the length is configurable using an AT command)[TBC].

The ring indicator is implemented on the daughter card as an open collector transistor output to allow the host the convenience of driving Viao circuitry.

5.2.4 LED

Function: LED

Description: LED-signal indicating a status change

Pin Number: 22

Signal Name: LED [modem⇒host]

If not used: Leave open

Details:

The LED is implemented on the Daughter Card as an open collector transistor output which providesa driver level interface to an LED acting as a status indicator for the user. The LED output can be made to blink at a rate pre-determined by modem software.

5.2.5 VREF

The function of VREF is already described in 5.1.3. This interface can be used as a status indicator to the host that the modem is still powered. VREF is present whilst the modem is powered and is removed upon the completion of the modem power down. This feature can be useful in the event of a communications lock-up between the host and the daughter card.

Assertion of this pin will initiate power up. The P_EN pin is active high and has to be maintained continually in order to keep the modem powered.

6 Rudimentary Circuit Functions

This section contains some rudimentary circuit functions for the sequencing of powering the modem up and down.

6.1 Power On Sequence

This sequence illustrates the power on procedure.

Figure 6.1-1 Power On Sequence

Sequence Detail:

1 VIN and 3V3 are supplied to the modem by the host. These two voltages can be

supplied simultaneously when the Daughter Card is required to be powered on. Both voltages must be present before the power on sequence is initiated for the Daughter Card to function correctly.

2 Once VIN and 3V3 voltages are applied the host can enable power up by

asserting power enable signal P_EN. The power up process will begin.

3 VREF may be used as an indicator that the modems regulators are powered.

is typically less than 70 ms

6.2 Power Off Sequence

This sequence illustrates the power off procedure.

Figure 6.2-1 Power Off Sequence

Sequence Detail:

1 The “AT+CFUN=4” instruction is sent from the host application to the modem in

order to initiate a deregistration sequence.

2 The modem responds to the request with an ‘OK’ to indicate that deregistration

is completed. Deregistration from the network can take from 3-30 seconds. After de-registration has been acknowledged the host application may remove P_EN.

3 The switching regulator output capacitor will gradually discharge until the modem

regulators threshold is exceeded. and power down will be complete. VREF may be used as indicator of complete shut down.

4 When the modem has successful shutdown, and VREF has fallen bellow 0.5V

then the host may safely remove VIN and 3V3 at any time. However the supplies can remain active without increasing current consumption (typically <25uA).

6.3 USB communications information

This sequence illustrates USB initialization.

1. The startup sequence begins with the completion of the power up ramping of the

VREF signal as described in Power On Sequence.

2. The D+ signal is brought high with the power up of the USB block in the

baseband circuitry. This produces the J state indicating to the USB host that a device is attaching.

3. A host initiated SE0 begins the USB protocol transactions.

USB enumeration information

Using the supplied drivers, the Daughter Card will be identified as a USB peripheral with the following descriptor data:

Device Descriptor: bcdUSB: 0x0110 bDeviceClass: 0x00 bDeviceSubClass: 0x00 bDeviceProtocol: 0x00 bMaxPacketSize0: 0x40 (64) idVendor: 0x0FCE idProduct: 0xD019 bcdDevice: 0x202 iManufacturer: 0x00 iProduct: 0x00 iSerialNumber: 0x00 bNumConfigurations: 0x01
