2 Generality
Telit supplies the EVK2 to assist the designer during his developing project phase to develop his
own applications based on Telit modules.
The EVK2 provides a fully functional solution for a complete data/phone application.
The EVK2 is formed by a motherboard CS1139B and several dedicated Telit modules Interface
Boards with RF antenna connectors.
The motherboard has multiple power supply possibilities and is equipped with SIM card housing,
RS 232 serial port level translator, direct USB1.1 connection, and two audio input/output paths.
The only items you have to provide are:
1) a personal computer or microcontroller;
2) a SIM card with a valid Network subscription;
3) the audio accessories;
4) a knowledge of AT commands programming;
5) a power supply.
The connection between the EVK2 and your PC (or other DTE) are realized by standard RS232 or
USB 1.1 ports.
The communications between your application and Telit Modules are realized connecting the
Asynchronous Serial Interfaces of the module’s Base Band Chips (ASC0 and ASC1) through:
Æ a double stacked standard DB9 connector, that provides 2 serial communication paths RS232
protocol up to 115Kbit/sec;
Æ a CMOS HUB, that makes both serial interfaces accessible through one physical connection
providing two-way communication in compliance with USB version 1.1 specification up to
1,5Mbytes/sec.
The second one is the only possibility with portable personal computers that generally have not the
RS232 port.
Furthermore, the EVK2 allows benefiting of the special features of the new Telit Module versions
with PYTHON Script Interpreter and GPS satellite positioning receiver.
The ASC1, accessible as RS232 on lower DB9 connector or through the USB1.1 HUB, is used for:
• continuous of debug messages of the PYTHON Script Interpreter (requires PYTHON
version modules;
• continuous direct output of GPS NMEA sentences (geographical coordinates) from
modules with GPS.
The development of the applications utilizing Telit modules presents a proper design of all the
interfaces towards and from the module (e.g. power supply, audio paths, level translators),

otherwise a decrease in performance will be introduced or, in the worst case, a wrong design can
even lead to an operating failure of the module.
It is also easily feasible the use of the Telit modules in the so called “ stand-alone configuration “,
connecting the module mounted on its own interface board directly to your application, through
2x40 pin header connectors.

6.4 Application Notes
6.4.1 About Li-Ion Battery Pack
The 3.7V Li-Ion rechargeable Battery Pack should be connected directly to PL107 connector.
Remember to use the connection cables as short as possible, with the appropriate conductors
gauge and the other attributes, such as device power budget and cable flexibility, in order to match
the specified voltage drop (especially during the high current absorption periods).
To obtain the best performance we suggest a capacity of 1000 mAh (
6.4.2 About Current Charger
With a +6V Current Unlimited Source connected to PL103 connector, the battery pack will be
directly charged through VBATT connector pins of the Telit Modules, under control of the Internal Charge Algorithm.
Depending on the size, the Li-Ion cell manufacturers suggest a charge current value not greater
than 1,5C
considered to be a good choice.
With reference to the schematic diagram 30276SE11139A -sheet1, the Current Limiting Circuit
(
Q102, Q103, R106, R107, R108, R109, R110, R111, R112, R113, C105) sets the maximum value of the
Charge Current in respect to the law:
With the default values, the charge current will be ∼ 470mA, which will charge Battery Packs with a
capacity from 350mAh to 1000mAh, without any dissipation problem.
If a higher capacity Battery Pack is needed, you must increment the Time Out in the Telit Modules.

8 Audio Section
8.1 Overview
The BaseBand chip of our modules provides two audio paths both in receive and in transmit
sections, which could be active only one at time.
To turn on your well-suited section on EVK2, please refer to “AF Amplifiers Setting “paragraph and
followings.
To know which are the suggested performances of the EVK2 audio transducers, refer to “Audio Accessories “paragraph.
8.1.1 History
The Baseband chip of our modules was developed for the cellular phones, which needed two
separated amplifiers both in RX and in TX section. A couple of amplifiers had to be used with
internal audio transducers (
external audio transducers (
Handset mode, HS) while the other couple of amplifiers must be used with
Handsfree mode, HF).
8.1.1.1 Transducers definitions
Headsets are transducers that receive an electrical signal from a receiver and use speakers
placed in close proximity to the ears to convert the signal into audible sound waves.
In the context of telecommunication, the word Headset is also commonly understood to refer to a
combination of Headphone and Microphone used for two-way communication, like with a mobile
phone.
Earphones are small Headphones that are placed directly outside of the ear canal, but without
fully enveloping it. They are generally inexpensive and are favored for their portability and
convenience.
Earpiece
A part whether of a telephone receiver or hearing aid, that fits in or is held next to the ear.
8.1.2 Actual
The HS and HF definitions have been kept in the Software and on the schematics of theTelit
modules. But with EVK2 we will refer to Audio1 or Audio2 section instead of Handset and Handsfree respectively, remembering that:
• they can have fully equivalent electrical performances (
• they can activate the same functionalities (
• they can offer slightly different performances (
like the Echo Canceller module)
like the two speaker buffering stages)
like the two microphone amplifiers)

1vv0300704 Rev.9- 28/05/08
8.1.3 The choice
The activation of the audio path is made Hardware by AXE line or Software by AT#CAP command.
If you don’t have any load driving constraint (
choice between one or other “block” could be done without consideration related to the electrical
performances; for example in order to overcome the PCB design difficulties.
like a speaker with an impedance coil lower than 16Ω), the
8.2 Differential and Single Ended
8.2.1 Concepts
Any voltage can be characterized by a potential difference between two terminals.
The configuration of the two terminals and how the signal is delivered from output to input allows
the signal to be more generally described in one of three ways:
•Single-ended signal. This is a signal delivered between a signal trace and a ground. One
terminal for a single-ended connection is always at fixed potential (
•Differential Signals. These are signals that travel through a pair of traces. On the signal
pair, neither of the terminals is Ground.
•Common mode Signals. They represent a special case of differential signals, also
traveling between a pair of traces, where the voltage potential on both signals is the same.
usually Ground).
8.2.2 Benefits and disadvantages
Differential amplifiers are desirable to use, especially in audio applications where signal levels are
very low such as those from microphones.
Classically, the benefits obtained from differential amplification are:
•Increase of Common Mode Rejection Ratio
Differential inputs enable cancellation of any noise common on both inputs. Noise
generated at the input of the amplifier has a greater effect than noise generated at
the output, because any noise on the input is multiplied by the gain of the amplifier.
•Increase Signal to Noise Ratio
The inputs to the amplifier are especially sensitive to noise because they are
typically not driven by a very low impedance source.
•High Rejection in Electromagnetic Interference (EMI)
Noise immunity is very important in wireless phones because the RF signal is sent
in bursts such that the frequency between bursts is in the audio band. RF
rectification is such a problem that many manufacturers shield the audio portion of
the phone.
•Double Useful signals level
The signal levels from microphone and the voltage swing to the load are doubled.
Then the AF power to the load it is 4 times the single-ended AFpower at the same
voltage supply.

1vv0300704 Rev.9- 28/05/08
•No output blocking capacitor is needed
Even if the differential outputs are biased at half-supply; no DC voltage exists
across the load. You do not need the big, expensive and heavy blocking capacitors
(
generally from 33 µF to 1000 µF), lowering the cost and saving PCB space
There is no frequency limiting effect due to the high pass filter network created with
the speaker impedance and the coupling capacitance.
•Less shielding is required from amplifier to load
Mainly we have only one disadvantage using differential amplification: the routing of one more
signal line could be more difficult and the additional trace requires more board space.
8.2.3 Settings
Connecting your accessories to SO401 in/out connector, you will implement Single Ended
Input/Output configurations.
Removing all 2 contacts jumpers inserted between PL402&PL403 or PL403&PL404, the in/out lines of our modules will be directly available on PL402 and PL404 connectors.
In such a way, you will be able to implement fully Differential Input/Output configurations.
Only with GC864-QUAD/PY-C2 modules the Ear output lines are AC coupled.

Connecting an 8Ω Speaker to PL401 by a 2 contacts female connector, you could drive it through
the 500mW Power Amplifier.
In this case the Speaker will be driven in fully differential configuration, with no side connected to
ground and without any output coupling capacitor. Therefore care must be taken because there is
DC voltage on both sides of the Speaker.
The overall gain of this amplifier can be modified varying the ratios R406/R404 and R407/R410:

12.2.2 RESET Switch
Whenever the RESET SWITCH is pressed, you could reset the Telit module in use.
When the device is reset, it stops any operation without doing any detach operation from the
network where it is registered and it reboots after the release of the Reset Switch.
This behavior is not a proper shut down because any GSM device is requested to issue a detach
request at turning off. For this reason the Reset pressing action must not be used to normally
reboot/shutting down the device, but only as an emergency exit in the rare case the device remains
stuck waiting for some network response.
The RESET is internally controlled at start-up to achieve always a proper power-on reset
sequence, so there is no need to control this pin on start-up. It may only be used to reset a device
already on that is not responding to any command.
