32u4 with A9G GPRS/GSM/GPS
Introduction¶
The 32U4 with A9 GPRS/GSM/GPS Board is based on Mega32U4 and A9 GPRS/GSM/GPS module. It can be used to make a call, send text messages and get GPS positioning. Also it has one analog interface, one IIC interface and two digital interface, which you can connect to other expansion modules. It is very easy for you to make a GPS Tracker by using this board. It is also very easy to use AT firmware and use several AT commands can be configured successfully.

Interface Function¶
Usage¶
1.Connect¶
Let's start a simple test.
1. Install the antenna.
Two miniature coaxial RF connector is present on the back of the 32U4 with A9G GPRS/GSM/GPS Board to connect with a GSM antenna or a GPS antenna . The connector present on the 32U4 with A9G GPRS/GSM/GPS is called a U.FL connector.The GSM Antenna supplied with the GPRS Shield has an SMA connector (and not an RP-SMA connector) on it.The connection topology is shown in the diagram below:
2. Insert the Micro SIM card into the SIM card holder.
There is a SIM card holder on the back of the board. Both 1.8 volts and 3.0 volts SIM Cards are supported by this board, the SIM card voltage type is automatically detected.
3. Connect the battery.
Because the PC USB port output current is not enough，so you should connedct an 3.7V lithium battery to the battery port.
4. Upload the code
Open your Arduino IDE, choose the file, choose the Arduino Leonardo Board.
You can refer to this test code and upload it to your board: 32U4_with_A9_test
5.Then open the SSCOM32. Please configure it as follows:
6.Now, you can use some AT commands to control the 32u4 with A9G GPRS/GSM/GPS.
