4.2.2. GC864-QUAD V2 Antenna Connector

The GC864-QUAD V2 module is equipped with a 50 ohm RF connector from Murata, GSC type P/N MM9329-2700B. The counterpart suitable is Murata MXTK92 Type or MXTK88 Type.

Moreover, the GC864-QUAD V2 has the antenna pads on the back side of the PCB. This allows the manual soldering of the coaxial cable directly on the back side of the PCB. However, the soldering is not an advisable solution for a reliable connection of the antenna.

5. Hardware Commands

5.1. Turning ON the GE/GC864-QUAD V2 and GE864-GPS

To turn ON the GE/GC864-QUAD V2 AND GE864-GPS the pad ON# must be tied low for at least 1 second and then released. Pulse duration less than 1000ms should also start the power on procedure, but this is not guaranteed.

When the power supply voltage is lower than 3.4V the pad ON# must be tied low for at least 5 seconds.

The maximum current that can be drained from the ON# pad is 0.1 mA. A simple circuit to do it is:

NOTE:

Don't use any pull up resistor on the ON# line, it is internally pulled up. Using pull up resistor may bring to latch up problems on the module, power regulator and improper power on/off of the module. The line ON# must be connected only in open collector configuration.

NOTE:

In this document all the lines that are inverted, hence have active low signals are labeled with a name that ends with a "#".

1vv0300915 Rev.5 – 2011-10-03

TIP:

To check if the device has powered on, the hardware line PWRMON should be monitored. After 1000ms the line raised up the device could be considered powered on.

NOTE:

When the power supply voltage is lower than 3.4V, to turn ON the module, the pad ON# must be tied low for at least 3 seconds.

For example:

1- Let us assume you need to drive the ON# pad with a totem pole output from +1.8V up to

5V microcontroller:

2- Let us assume you need to drive the ON# pad directly with an ON/OFF button:

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 module when is powered OFF or during an ON/OFF transition.
