NOTE: According to V.24, RX/TX signal names are referred to the application side, therefore on the GM862-GPS side
these signal are on the opposite direction: TXD on the application side will be connected to the receive line (here
named TXD/ rx_uart ) of the GM862-GPS serial port and viceversa for RX.
TIP: For a minimum implementation, only the TXD and RXD lines can be connected, the other lines can be left open
provided a software flow control is implemented.
The signals in the UART connector on the EVK are:
DCD RXD
TXD DTR
GND DSR
RTS CTS
RI GND
The signals of the GPS serial port are:
