Power on/Power off/Reset Function

3.2.1

Power on

SIM7000 can be powered on by pulling the PWRKEY pin to ground.
The PWRKEY pin has been pulled up with a diode to 1.8V internally, so it does not need to be
pulled up externally. It is strongly recommended to put a 100nF capacitor and an ESD protection
diode close to the PWRKEY pin, as it would strongly enhance the ESD performance of PWRKEY
pin. Please refer to the following figure for the recommended reference circuit.
