Adapter Interface. SimCom SIM8905X

SIM8905-EVB Kit_User Guide_V1.02 switched to VBAT to ensure the conduction of the path. The function of S101 here is to avoid the inconvenience of frequently plugging and unplugging the adapter when the adapter is powered, and only need to toggle the switch and short connect J102 to realize the charging function when charging with the adapter.

Method 2:

The module is powered by the battery 3.5V-4.4V: In order to prevent the adapter and the battery from being connected at the same time, the MOS control (Q102) is added to the battery power supply path. When the adapter is inserted, the MOS (Q102) disconnects the battery powered by.

In order to facilitate the user to test the current consumption of the module, the VBAT and GND test points are added to the TE Board. The customer can test the power consumption of the module by powering the

VBAT test point and disconnecting the jumper J104.

When the module is powered by an adapter, it is necessary to pull down BATT_THERM (Pin 134) of

SIM8905 module to GND with a 47K resistor, otherwise charging and power supply will be abnormal.

The priority selection of EVB adapter or battery power supply is as follows:

Customer can choose to use S101 to select charge function or not.

If the customers do not want to use charge function, they may disconnect jumper J102, then S101 will be the switch for the power control.
