Usage Tips:

1. Connecting the Module:
   • Connect the VCC pin to a stable power supply (3.4V to 4.5V).
   • Connect the GND pin to the ground of your system.
   • Connect the TXD and RXD pins to the UART interface of your microcontroller (use a level shifter if necessary for 5V systems).
2. Inserting the SIM Card:
   • Insert a valid 1.8V or 3V SIM card into the SIM card slot of the module.
3. Antenna Connection:
   • Attach an external GSM antenna to the SMA connector for better signal reception.
4. Powering Up the Module:
   • Use the PWRKEY pin to turn on the module (pull the PWRKEY pin low for at least 1 second).
5. Communication:
   • Use AT commands via the UART interface to control the module and perform tasks such as making calls, sending SMS, and transmitting data.
