NO. Name Silkscreen Comment
P1-1 Request to send RTS You can use it as an output and input.
P1-2 VRTC VRTC Power supply for RTC when VBAT is not supplied for the system. Charging for backup battery or golden capacitor when VBAT is applied. For the allowed voltage and current values for this pin, see the bottom of the table.
P1-3 RXD RX Receive data
P1-4 TXD TX Transmit data
P1-5 DCD DCD Digital output
P1-6 DTR DTR Digital input
P1-7 NC NC Not connect
P1-8 NC NC Not connect
P1-9 UART2-TX AUXTX Transmit data
P1-10 UART2-RX AUXRX Receive data
P2-1 Ground GND
P2-2 CTS CTS Clear to send
P2-3 RI RI Ring indication
P2-4 ADC0 ADC General purpose analog to digital converter. Vmax=2.8V, Vmin=0V
P2-5 SPK1P SPP Channel 1 positive voice output
P2-6 SPK1N SPN Channel 1 negative voice output
P2-7 MICN MICN Negative voice input
P2-8 MICP MICP Positive voice input
P2-9 Ground GND
P2-10 Power +5 Main power supply of module. Make sure that supply sufficient current in a transmitting burst typically rises to 1.6A. Vmax=4.8V, Vmin=5.5V

 

VRTC pin voltage: VImax=3.3V, VImin=1.5V, VInorm=2.8V

VOmax=3V, VOmin=2V, VOnorm=2.8V IOmax=2mA Iin≈10uA

Hint: make sure the power supply voltage is stable. The board to power up and turn on automatically without the need for a turn-off function.
