GSM2 click

1. Introduction

GSM2 Click™ is an accessory board in
mikroBUS
form factor. It's a compact and
™
easy solution for adding GSM module to
your design. It features Quectel M95 GSM
module, audio connector, SIM card socket
as well as SMA antenna connector. GSM2
Click™ communicates with target board
microcontroller via mikroBUS UART (Tx,
™
Rx), PWM, INT, AN, RST and CS lines. The
board is designed to use 3.3V and 5V I/O
voltage levels. LED diode (GREEN) indicates
the presence of power supply.

2. Soldering the headers

Before using your click board™, make sure
