Module will automatically go into sleep mode if the
conditions of sleep mode are enabling and there is no on air
and no hardware interrupt (such as USB wake-up operation or
data on serial port).
In this case, the current consumption of module will be
reduced to the minimal level.
In sleep mode, the module can still receive paging message
and SMS.
Idle

GSM/WCDMA/LTE network, and the module is ready to
communicate.

LTE
Connection between two subscribers is in progress. In this
case, the power consumption depends on network settings
such as DTX off/on, FR/EFR/HR, hopping sequences,
antenna.
Standby
EDGE/HSPA
+/LTE
Module is ready for EDGE/HSPA+ /LTE data transfer, but no
data is currently sent or received. In this case, power
consumption depends on network settings and EDGE/HSPA+
/LTE configuration.
Data
transfer
EDGE/HSPA
+ /LTE
There is EDGE/HSPA+/LTE data transfer in progress. In this
case, power consumption is related to network settings (e.g.
power control level); uplink/downlink data rates and GPRS
configuration (e.g. used multi-slot settings).
Minimum
functionality mode
AT command “AT+CFUN” can be used to set the module to a minimum
functionality mode without removing the power supply. In this mode, the RF
part of the module will not work or the USIM card will not be accessible, or
both RF part and USIM card will be closed, and the serial port is still
accessible. The power consumption in this mode is lower than normal mode.

4.1 Power Supply
The recommended power supply voltage of SIM7100-PCIE(A) is 3.3V.

Symbol Parameter Min Type Max Unit
VOPower supply voltage 3.2 3.3 3.6 V
IOSupply current capability 2000 - - mA
4.2 Power Saving Mode
SIM7100-PCIE(A) has two power saving modes: minimum functionality mode and sleep mode. When
SIM7100-PCIE(A) is in sleep mode and minimum functionality mode, the current of module is lowest.
4.2.1 Minimum Functionality Mode and Sleep Mode
The AT command “AT+CFUN=<fun>” can be used to set SIM7100-PCIE(A) into minimum functionality.
There are three functionality modes, which could be set by the AT command “AT+CFUN=<fun>”. The command
provides the choice of the functionality levels <fun>=0, 1, 4.
AT+CFUN=0: Minimum functionality.
AT+CFUN=1: Full functionality (default).
AT+CFUN=4: Flight mode (disable RF function).
Table 7: The Current Consumption of Minimum Functionality Mode (BS-PA-MFRMS=5)
<fun> Current consumption(mA) (sleep mode)
0 1.4
1 1.6
4 1.4
Minimum functionality mode minimizes the current consumption to the lowest level. If SIM7100-PCIE(A) is set
to minimum functionality by “AT+CFUN=0”, the RF function and SIM card function will be disabled. In this
case, the serial port and USB port are still accessible, but all AT commands correlative with RF function and SIM
card function will not be accessible.
Note: For detailed information about the AT Command “AT+CFUN=<fun>”, please refer to document
[1].
