1. INTRODUCTION Scope The aim of this document is the handling description of the EVB (EValuation Board) Interface for the product WL865E4-P WIFI/BLE module. Audience This document is intended for Telit customers, especially system integrators, about to implement their applications using Telit module.
Tip or Information – Provides advice and suggestions that may be useful when integrating the module. All dates are in ISO 8601 format, i.e. YYYY-MM-DD. Related Documents • Telit WL865E4-P User Guide 1VV0301580 • WL865E4-P AT Command Reference Guide 1VV0301594 Rev.0 Page 7 of 27...
IoT software and hardware. The system was designed to provide a complete development environment to the user and intended to be used with Telit WL865E4-P module and Arduino Uno Rev3 board. NOTE: The combination of the EVB and the Arduino Uno Rev3 shall be done according to the configuration described in this manual.
WL865E4-P EVB User Guide 3. WL865E4-P INTERFACE DESCRIPTION WL865E4-P Development Kit In Figure 3-1 the WL865E4-P EVB is shown, while in Table 3-1 the WL865E4-P kitting parts are listed.

WL865E4-P EVB User Guide Evaluation Board description In Figure 3-2 and Figure 3-3 the Top and Bottom side view of the EVB are shown. The items indicated are described in Section 3.3 and 3.4 respectively for the top and the bottom side.
The Jumper PL602 (Figure 3-4) allows to manage the sensor’s interrupts manually by means of the proper jumper configuration. Figure 3-4: PL602 with sensor interrupts 5) Sensors The WL865E4-P interface is equipped with different kind of sensors as shown in Figure 3-5.

PB1 is connected only to PL606-1 to be externally wired to any desired GPIO pin on any other connector’s header. PB2 is connected to PL606-2 and goes directly to the WL865E4-P RESET#, an active low HW Reset pin, press and release it to unconditionally reset the module.

VDD_IO, no matter its value. 3V3 is to be considered the default. The WL865E4-P can have different VIO voltage value with respect to core. This is selected on Jumper headers PL302 and PL301. If no jumpers are plugged into these headers the only ON position of the switch is not enough to correctly powering the module.

The PL301 can be used also as an insertion point to measure current consumption of the module or for external power supply use. The WL865E4-P EVB has three different LED’s on the left part shown in Figure 3-11, each LED indicates a specific status: LED Red ON–...
