one of them a proper hardware solution will be suggested and eventually the wrong solutions
and common errors to be avoided will be evidenced. Obviously this document cannot
embrace all hardware solutions and products that may be designed. Avoiding the discussed
wrong solutions must be considered as mandatory. While the suggested hardware
configurations must not be considered mandatory, the information given must be used as a
guide and a starting point for properly developing a product with the Telit DE910 module.

4. Hardware Commands
4.1. Turning on the DE910 module
To turn on the DE910, the pad ON_OFF* must be tied low for at least 1 second and then
released.
The maximum current that can be drained from the ON_OFF* pad is 0.1 mA.
A simple circuit to power on the module is illustrated below:
4.1.1. Initialization and Activation State
Upon turning on DE910 module, the DE910 module is not active yet because the boot
sequence of DE910 is still executing internally. It takes about 10 seconds to complete the
initialization of the module internally.
For this reason, it would be useless to try to access DE910 during the Initialization state as
below. The DE910 module needs at least 10 seconds after the PWRMON goes High to
become operational by reaching the activation state.

Reserved. Page 21 of 77
DE910 Series Hardware User Guide
1vv0300951 Rev.9 – 2015-05-11
During the Initialization state, any kind of AT-command is not available. DTE must wait for
the Activation state to communicate with DE910.
To check if the DE910 has powered on, the hardware line PWRMON must be monitored.
When PWRMON goes high, the module has powered on.
NOTE:
Do not use any pull up resistor on the ON_OFF* line. It is pulled up internally. Using a pull
up resistor may bring latch up problems on the DE910 power regulator and improper power
on/off of the module. The line ON_OFF* must be connected only in open collector
configuration.
NOTE:
In this document all the lines are inverted. Active low signals are labeled with a name that
ends with "*" or with a bar over the name.
NOTE:
In order to avoid a back powering effect it is recommended to avoid having any HIGH logic
level signal applied to the digital pins of the DE910 module when the module is powered OFF
or during an ON/OFF transition.
For example:
1. To drive the ON_OFF* pad with a totem pole output of a +3/5 V microcontroller
(uP_OUT1):
2. To drive the ON_OFF* pad directly with an ON/OFF button:

DE910 Series Hardware User Guide
1vv0300951 Rev.9 – 2015-05-11
4.2. Turning off the DE910 module
Turning off the device can be done in two ways:
By software command (see DE910 Software User Guide)
By hardware shutdown
When the device is shut down by software command or by hardware shutdown, it issues a
detach request to the network that informs the network that the device will no longer be
reachable.
NOTE:
In order to avoid a back powering effect it is recommended to avoid having any HIGH logic
level signal applied to the digital pins of the DE910 when the module is powered OFF or
during an ON/OFF transition.
The following flow chart shows the proper turnoff procedure:

DE910 Series Hardware User Guide
1vv0300951 Rev.9 – 2015-05-11
4.2.1. Shutdown by Software Command
The DE910 can be shut down by a software command.
When a shutdown command is sent, the DE910 goes into the finalization state and will shut
down PWRMON at the end of this state.
The period of the finalization state can vary according to the state of the DE910 so it cannot
be fixed definitely.
Normally it will be above 10 seconds after sending a shutdown command and DTE should
monitor the status of PWRMON to see the actual power off.
TIP:
To check if the device has powered off hardware line PWRMON must be monitored. When
PWRMON goes low, the device has powered off.
4.2.2. Hardware Shutdown
To turn OFF the DE910 the pad ON_OFF* must be tied low for at least 2 seconds and then
released. The same circuitry and timing for the power on must be used.
When the hold time of ON_OFF* is above 2 seconds, the DE910 goes into the finalization
state and will shut down PWRMON at the end of this state.
The period of the finalization state can vary according to the state of the DE910 so it cannot
be fixed definitely.
Normally it will be above 10 seconds after releasing ON_OFF* and DTE should monitor the
status of PWRMON to see the actual power off.
