    G510 module. 1.2 Aim This manual is intended for all members of the integration team who are responsible for integrating the G510 module into the host OEM device, including representatives from hardware, software and RF engineering disciplines. 1.3 Applicable Documents 《G510 Hardware Design Application Note》...
  • Page 7: Overview

    The G510 GPRS Module supports GSM Quad Band 850/900/1800/1900 MHz., GPRS supports class 10. G510 can operate on any GSM/GPRS network to provide data communications. The G510 is similar to a condensed cellular phone core, which can be integrated into any system or product that needs to transfer voice or data information over a cellular network.
  • Page 8: Specifications

    The G510 is extremely compact in size with a slim mechanical design, which makes it space saving on the application board and easily fitted into any board design. The advanced power supply management significantly reduces power consumption to a necessary minimum and prolongs battery life.

    Call or GPRS data LPG signal is toggling. A GSM voice or data call is in progress. When the call terminates, G510 returns to the last operating state (Idle or Sleep). 3.3 Power Supply The module power supply must be a single external DC voltage source of 3.3V to 4.5V. The power supply must be able to sustain the voltage level during a GSM transmit burst current serge, which may reach 2.0A.

  • Page 17: Turning Off The Module

    3.4.2 Turning off the Module There are two ways to Turn OFF the G510: Asserting the POWER_ON signal to low state for at least 3 Seconds then the module will Power Down automatically. Or alternatively the module can be Power OFF using AT Command, please refer to <G5-Family AT Commands User Manual>.
  • Page 18: Sleep Mode

    G510 will not enter Sleep mode in any case when there is data present on the serial interface or incoming from the GSM network or an internal system task is running. Only when processing of any external or internal system task has completed, G510 will enter Sleep mode according to the ATS24 command settings.
  • Page 19: Serial Interface During Sleep Mode

    Sleep mode to Idle mode. There are several ways to wake-up module from Sleep mode as described below. During Sleep mode the G510 internal clocks and circuits are disabled, in order to minimize power consumption. When terminating the Sleep mode, and switching to Idle mode, nG510 requires a minimal delay time to reactivate and stabilize its internal circuits before it can respond to application data.
