Uart Interface - Quectel EC200A Series Hardware Design

4.5. UART Interface

The module provides two UART interfaces: the main UART interface and the debug UART interface. The
following shows their features.
⚫
The main UART interface supports 4800 bps, 9600 bps, 19200 bps, 38400 bps, 57600 bps,
115200 bps, 230400 bps, 460800 bps, 921600 bps baud rates, and the baud rate is 115200 bps by
default. This interface is used for data transmission and AT command communication. Also, it
supports RTS and CTS hardware flow control.
⚫
The debug UART interface supports 115200 bps baud rate. It is used for the output of partial logs.
