RS232 interface for GT47 embedded apps UART 1 Introduction The GT47 Control Terminal from Sony Ericsson is a powerful and versatile device that can be used in a wide range of telemetry and telematics applications that rely on the remote exchange of data, voice, SMS or fax via the GSM cellular network.
RS232 interface for GT47 embedded apps UART 2 Design Overview 2.1 Description The RS232 Level Translator PCB Assembly consists of a PCB and plastic back shell or ‘hood’ compatible with 9-pin ‘D’ sub-miniature RS232 connectors (DB9). It has been designed to provide a compatible termination to the 15-way cable assembly provided as part of the GT47 Developer’s kit.

RS232 interface for GT47 embedded apps UART 2.2 3-Wire RS232 In the 3-wire configuration, surface mount strap resistors (ST1 and ST2) are not mounted. Flow control should be disabled on each communicating device (AT+ IFC) As the GT47 general purpose outputs each require a resistor pull-up, these are provided on the RS232 interface PCB.
RS232 interface for GT47 embedded apps UART 2.5 Spare Connections The spare soldering terminal, T7, is provided to easily lengthen the connection from the GT47 to the application hardware. The cable provided in the developer’s kit is a fixed 1 metre length, with tinned-copper flying leads.
