1. INTRODUCTION

Scope

This document introduces the Telit LE910Cx module and presents possible and

recommended hardware solutions for the development of a product based on this

module. All the features and solutions described in this document are applicable to all

LE910Cx variants listed in the applicability table.

If a specific feature is applicable to a specific product only, it will be clearly marked.

Note: LE910Cx refers to all modules listed in the Applicability Table.

This document takes into account all the basic functions of a wireless module; it suggests

a valid hardware solution for each function and points out incorrect solutions and

common errors to be avoided.

This document cannot include every hardware solution or every product that can be

designed. Avoiding invalid solutions must be considered mandatory. Where the

suggested hardware configurations are not be considered mandatory, the information

provided should be used as a guide and a starting point for the proper development of

the product with the Telit LE910Cx module.

Note: The integration of the GSM/GPRS/EGPRS/WCDMA/HSPA+/LTE

LE910Cx cellular module within a user application must be done

according to the design rules described in this manual.

Audience

This document is intended for Telit customers, especially system integrators, about to

implement their applications using the Telit LE910Cx module.
