Reset Function - SimCom SIM800L Hardware Design

At this moment, AT commands can not be executed any more, and only the RTC is still active. Power down mode
can also be indicated by STATUS or VDD_EXT, which is at low level at this time.
4.2.2.2. Power down SIM800L by AT Command
SIM800L can be powered down by AT command "AT+CPOWD=1". This procedure makes the module log off
from the network and allows the software to enter into a secure state to save data before completely shut down.
Before the completion of the power down procedure, the module will send URC:
NORMAL POWER DOWN
At this moment, AT commands can not be executed any more, and only the RTC is still active. Power down mode
can also be indicated by STATUS or VDD_EXT, which is at low level at this time.
Note:For detail about AT command "AT+CPOWD", please refer to document [1].
4.2.2.3. Over-Voltage or Under-Voltage Power Down
The module software monitors the VBAT voltage constantly.
If the voltage ≤ 3.5V, the following URC will be reported:
UNDER-VOLTAGE WARNNING
If the voltage ≥ 4.3V, the following URC will be reported:
OVER-VOLTAGE WARNNING
If the voltage < 3.4V, the following URC will be reported, and the module will be automatically powered down.
UNDER-VOLTAGE POWER DOWN
If the voltage > 4.4V, the following URC will be reported, and the module will be automatically powered down.
OVER-VOLTAGE POWER DOWN
At this moment, AT commands can not be executed any more, and only the RTC is still active. Power down mode
can also be indicated by STATUS or VDD_EXT, which is at low level at this time.
Note The default over voltage or under voltage power down is disable, AT command "AT+CBATCHK=1" could be used to open

this function, digital interface characteristics should refer to table 38 strictly. For details please refer to document [1].
4.2.2.4. Restart SIM800L by PWRKEY Pin:
When the module works normally, if the customer wants to restart the module, the time after STATUS pin
changed to low should be at least 800ms. The module needs enough time to power down completely.
