Serial Link
Figure 13: GSM serial link signals
The MG260 has been designed to allow a certain flexibility in the use of the serial
interface signals.
However, the use of GSM_CTS1 and GSM_RTS1 signals for hardware flow
control in order to avoid data corruption during transmission is mandatory.
This is not the case for GSM_DTR1 and GSM_DSR1 signals which can be left
disconnected if not used.
