2. OVERVIEW
The Telit Evaluation Kit (EVK2) provides a robust, future-proof and flexible environment to streamline all application development based on Telit GSM/GPRS, UMTS/HSPA, CDMA 1x/EV-DO, and LTE module families, significantly reducing time-to-market. The EVK2 kit includes a motherboard where to connect the Interface board of a Telit module. This concept allows the EVK2 to be used across various form factors and product generations, both present and future. The motherboard includes the basic interfaces such as power input, SIM card holder, audio monitor outputs, RS-232, and USB; as well as a Reset button and power switch. The circuit implemented in the EVK2 motherboard is based on the recommended reference design for the module's peripheral components and I/O connections. Adapter boards are available for all the different module families. The interface boards convert the module connection technology (board-to-board or BGA soldering) into a PTH pin connector. The part of the basic interfaces is served by the motherboard, whereas specific interfaces according to the type of the module (antenna, general purpose inputs/outputs GPIO, ADC/DAC, UART) are available on the adapter board to connect it to the user applications, extension boards, measurements equipment or other tools. All connections are made through 2x40 contacts connectors. It is possible to use these Interface Boards also in stand-alone mode, inserting the “not mounted” components (related to RESET BUTTON, ON BUTTON, SIM HOLDER and STATUS LED functions) plus the use of an external level translator circuit. This document is describing the available Adapter Boards for the modules based on the xE866 form factor.

3.3.5. PL105 - Power Supply Setting
The PL105 connector is permitting to configure how to supply the module.
The Interface is designed to supply and filter the two Module’s inputs VBATT and
VBATT_PA and separately the rest of circuits of the Interface (VBATT_AUX) The connector is provided by 3 Jumpers (Mounted by default) that permits to:
Select if to supply the module from EVK2 or from an external source
Insert a Power consumption Meter in series to the supply
The connector carries the following signals:

3.3.6. SIM Holder and SIM Detection
The Interface is provided by a SIM Holder (SO102). The SIM holder lines are in parallel to the lines connected to the SIM Holder on EVK2 so it is not allowed to have a SIM in both holders. Due to the fact the product is not provided by a dedicated pin for the HW SIM Presence detection, it is possible to select one GPIO to be used for this function. On the interface it has been considered to have the possibility to use the GPIO 4 adding a Jumper on PL301. On PL301 the lines dedicated to this activity are:
3.3.7. RESET
The Interface is provided by a button that permits to RESET the module. Please refer to the Module’s HW user guide for its use and behaviour.
3.3.8. STAT LED
The Interface is provided by a LED controlled by the STAT LED line of the module. Please refer to the Module’s HW user guide for its use and behaviour.

3.3.9.2. PL201
The connector carries the following signals:
There are two Jumpers on this connector that permit to select the following:
To connect the Secondary UART to the GNSS UART (Hosted configuration) (5-7 and 6-8)
To connect the Secondary UART to the EVK2 level translators (1-3 and 2-4)
To connect the GNSS UART to the EVK2 level translators (5-7 and 6-8)
In case is needed to connect an external application to the AUX UART , GNSS UART or simply to isolate them from the rest of the circuitry it is only needed to remove the two jumpers.

3.4.2. Hosted GNSS Settings
As described in HW User Guide the GE310-GNSS module permits to use the GNSS section as host for the 2G section or as a separated device.
The Hosted configuration could be set in the following way:

1VV0301565 Rev. 2 Page 29 of 60 2018-12-17
Interface Stand-alone Use
The GE310 Interface could be used in Stand alone (without the EVK2 mainboard) with the following remarks:
The Power supply could be provided connecting a Power supply to SO104 or PL105 (removing the Jumpers)
The Power supply level has to be carefully verified in the Module’s HW User Guide
The SIM could be inserted in the SO102 Holder
The communication with the module through the UART requires the use of a level
adapter between the PC and the Interface (the lines are available on SO101 but please be aware that the signals on that connector have been adapted to the 2.8V logic levels of EVK2)
The Audio section could be used accessing directly to the Analog lines (see above chapters for pinout) or through the codec using SO301 and SO302
The RESET line could be controlled using the SW101 Button
The STAT LED line is present on the Interface (DL101)
The Antenna could be connected on the related SMA connectors (Ref to Module’s
HW User Guide for the correct model)
FIRMWARE UPDATE
You can update the Telit Module firmware through the serial port. In case the GNSS section needs a SW upgrade this could be done setting the Interface in this way:
PL101: Jumper Between Pin 2 and Pin 4.
PL201: Jumper Between Pin 5 and Pin 7 and Jumper between Pin 6 and Pin 8.
Please refer to the GE310 HW Design Guide Documentation for details.

4.3.5. SIM Holder and SIM Detection
The Interface is using the SIM Holder available on the EVB mainboard. Due to the fact the product is not provided by a dedicated pin for the HW SIM Presence detection, it is possible to select one GPIO to be used for this function. On the interface it has been considered to have the possibility to use the GPIO_05 adding a Jumper on PL401. On PL401 the lines dedicated to this activity are:
4.3.6. RESET
The module could be reset using the related button on EVB mainboard.
4.3.7. STAT LED
The EVB Interface is provided by a LED controlled by the STAT LED line of the module. Please refer to the Module’s HW user guide for its use and behaviour.

There are two Jumpers on this connector that permit to select the following:
To connect the Secondary UART to the GNSS UART (Hosted configuration) (35­37 and 36-38)
To connect the Secondary UART to the EVB level translators (31-33 and 32-34)
To connect the GNSS UART to the EVK2 level translators (33-35 and 34-36)
In case is needed to connect an external application to the AUX UART , GNSS UART or simply to isolate them from the rest of the circuitry it is only needed to remove the two jumpers.
