  • Page 23 TC65 Hardware Interface Description Strictly confidential / Draft Airplane mode Airplane mode shuts down the radio part of the module, causes the module to log off from the GSM/GPRS network and disables all AT commands whose execution requires a radio connection.
  • Page 24: Power Supply

    TC65 needs to be connected to a power supply at the B2B connector (5 pins each BATT+ and GND). The power supply of TC65 has to be a single voltage source at BATT+. It must be able to provide the peak current during the uplink transmission.

    RF interface. The duration of measuring ranges from 0.5s in TALK/DATA mode to 50s when TC65 is in IDLE mode or Limited Service (deregistered). The displayed voltage (in mV) is averaged over the last measuring period before the AT^SBV command was executed.
  • Page 26: Power Up / Power Down Scenarios

    Strictly confidential / Draft Power Up / Power Down Scenarios In general, be sure not to turn on TC65 while it is beyond the safety limits of voltage and temperature stated in Chapter 5. TC65 would immediately switch off after having started and detected these inappropriate conditions.
  • Page 27: Figure 5: Power-On With Operating Voltage At Batt+ Applied Before Activating Igt

    TC65 Hardware Interface Description Strictly confidential / Draft If configured to a fix baud rate (AT+IPR≠0), the module will send the URC “^SYSSTART” or “^SYSSTART AIRPLANE MODE” to notify that it is ready to operate. If autobauding is enabled (AT+IPR=0) there will be no notification.

    Charge-only mode where only the charging algorithm will be launched. During the Charge-only mode TC65 is neither logged on to the GSM network nor are the serial interfaces fully accessible. To switch to normal operation and log on to the GSM network, the IGT line needs to be activated as described in Section 3.3.1.

    5 seconds. Pulling the EMERG_RST pin causes the loss of all information stored in the volatile memory. Therefore, this procedure is intended only for use in case of emergency, e.g. if TC65 does not respond, if reset or shutdown via AT command fails.
  • Page 30: Turn Off Tc65

    The best and safest approach to powering down TC65 is to issue the AT^SMSO command. This procedure lets TC65 log off from the network and allows the software to enter into a secure state and safe data before disconnecting the power supply. The mode is referred to as Power-down mode.
  • Page 31: Leakage Current In Power Down Mode

    TC65 module, the leakage current ranges between 90µA and 100µA. • If the TC65 module is started and afterwards powered down with AT^SMSO, then the leakage current is only 50µA. Therefore, in order to minimize the leakage current take care to start up the module at least once before it is powered down.
  • Page 32: Automatic Shutdown

    3.5.3 The values detected by either NTC resistor are measured directly on the board or the battery and therefore, are not fully identical with the ambient temperature. Each time the board or battery temperature goes out of range or back to normal, TC65 instantly displays an alert (if enabled).

    BATT_TEMP terminal. Thus, you can take advantage of this feature even though the application handles the charging process or TC65 is fed by a fixed supply voltage. All you need to do is executing the write command AT^SBC=<current> which automatically enables the presentation of URCs.
  • Page 35: Automatic Gprs Multislot Class Change

    Once the temperature drops to a value of 5 degrees below the limit of restricted operation, TC65 returns to the higher Multislot Class. If the temperature stays at the critical level or even continues to rise, TC65 will not switch back to the higher class.

    Use the command AT^SBC, parameter <current>, to enter the current consumption of the host application. This information enables the TC65 module to correctly determine the end of charging and terminate charging automatically when the battery is fully charged. If the <current>...
  • Page 37: Battery Pack Requirements

    On the TC65 module, a built-in measuring circuit constantly monitors the supply voltage. In the event of undervoltage, it causes TC65 to power down. Undervoltage thresholds are specific to the battery pack and must be evaluated for the intended model. When you evaluate undervoltage thresholds, consider both the current consumption of TC65 and of the application circuit.
