LE910Cx HW User Guide

1VV0301298 Rev. 34 Page 43 of 131

Not Subject to NDA

A flow chart showing the AT commands managing procedure is displayed below:

Note

: To check whether the LE910Cx has completely powered on,

monitor the SW_RDY hardware line. When SW_RDY becomes high,

the module is

completely powered on and is ready to accept AT

commands.

Note

: During the SW initialization of the LE910Cx, the SW configures

all pads and interfaces to the desired mode. When PWRMON goes

high, this indicates that the initialization of all I/O pads is completed.

Note

: Do not use any pull-up resistor on the ON_OFF_N line as it is

pulled up internally. Using a pull-up resistor may cause latch-up

problems on the LE910Cx power regulator and improper powering

on/off of the module. The ON_OFF_N line must be connected only in

an open-collector configuration.

Note

: For systems not requiring controlled power ON/OFF,

automatic power on can be supported by shorting the ON_OFF

signal directly to GND

In this case, the module will start power on sequence immediately

after VBATT supply is applied

Note

: Active low signals are labeled with a name that ends with "#" or with

“_N”

Note

: To avoid a back-powering effect, it is recommended to prevent any

HIGH logic level signal from being applied to the module’s digital pins when

it is powered OFF or during an ON/OFF transition.
