Typical power consumption in sleep mode is 1 5ma.
Sim900a gsm module power supply.
Insert your sim card to gsm module and lock it.
Sim900a gsm module pin configuration descripton gpio pins.
Now wait for some time say 1 minute and see the blinking rate of status led or network led d6 refer picture 5 gsm module will take some time to establish connection with mobile network 5.
All pins give the maximum output equal to the power supply which is useable to control most of the devices like sensors and other modules.
Check the power requirements of gsm module gsm modules are manufactured by different companies.
In this tutorial our gsm module requires a 12 volts input.
How to give power supply to my gsm module with the battery.
Although it has a power supply pin which can be connected with the arduino s 5 volts.
Gsm sim900a power supply.
The gpio pins help to perform the simple and advance i o function.
The frequency bands also can be set by at command.
My gsm sim900a modem is.
In starting days it worked fine.
How should i design the circuit so that i get 3 2v 4 8v with 2a for proper gsm module operation without destroying any components.
As i said earlier the gsm sim900a module has no onboard voltage regulator.
You need to double check your gsm modules power requirements.
First i have given power supply to gsm module from the arduino i e.
I am interfacing simcom s gsm module sim900 with arduino.
The gsm sim900a module interfacing with esp32 will be explained in one of my future articles.
As i said earlier the gsm sim900a module has no onboard voltage regulator.
Gsm sim900a power supply.
The voltage regulator i am using is l7805 which gives a regulated output voltage of 4 9 v.
The gsm sim900a module interfacing with nodemcu esp8266 and esp32 will be explained in one of my future articles.
It draws high current upto 2a when transmitting data so i would advise using a good quality power supply with capacity of 2 5a 3a.
Sim900a gsm module features.
I want to power gsm sim900a with lead acid rechargeable battery 12v 1 2ah.
Connect the antenna picture 4 4.
Picture 1 and 2 2.
But now it is working only on the ac to dc adapter 12v that is why i bought 12v rechargeble battery.
Although it has a power supply pin which can be connected with the arduino s 5 volts.
My battery is.
The sim900a gsm module has an operating voltage of 3 4v 4 5v.
Power up your gsm by connecting it to arduino s 5v and gnd picture 3 3.
So we feed it using a 12v 1a dc power supply.
