Figure 3-13  Connection of the UART interface in the ME909 module (DCE) with the host 
(DTE) 
 
 
The RS-232 chip can be used to connect the ME909 module with UART. In this 
connection, the Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor(CMOS) logic level and 
the Electronic Industries Association (EIA) level are converted mutually. For example, 
it is recommended that you use the MAX218 chip (The MAX218’s max baud is 
120000 bit/s) with a 2-wire serial port. 
 
 
 
It is recommended that customer set the pins related to UART interface as test points on the 
DTE board for debugging. 
 
The UART0_RX, UART0_TX, UART1_RX, UART1_TX, and UART2_RX, UART2_TX must 
be pulled down. When you want the module is in sleep status, all the UART interface will be 
in low level. Therefore, UART0_RX, UART0_TX, UART1_RX, UART1_TX and UART2_RX, 
UART2_TX must be pulled down in order to confirm they are in low logic when the module is 
in sleep status. 
 
The level of RS-232 Transceivers must match that of the ME909 module.
