G30 - Module Hardware Description
1
Chapter 1: Introduction
The G30 is the newest member of Motorola's embedded cellular modules family.
Designed with quad band GSM capabilities, which supports four GSM bands - 
850/900/1800/1900 MHz, and with GPRS multislot class 10, G30 can operate on any 
GSM/GPRS/EGPRS network to provide voice and data communications.
The G30 is similar to a condensed cellular phone core, which can be integrated into any system or 
product that needs to transfer voice or data information over a cellular network. Thus, it 
significantly enhances the system's capabilities, transforming it from a standalone, isolated 
product to a powerful high-performance system with global communications capabilities.
The G30 is designed as a complete GSM communications solution with all the controls, 
interfaces and features to support a broad range of applications:
A powerful audio interface
A large set of indicators and control signals
Several advanced power-saving modes
A variety of serial communications solutions.
All these features and interfaces are easily controlled and configured using a versatile AT 
command interface that provides full control over the G30 operation.
The G30 comes with several hardware configurations (models) that gives the development 
engineer the option to select the best cost effective solution for their application.
The hardware configuration is the combination of the following factors:
User interface: 81 pin LGA interface for solder mounting, or 70 pin connector interface with 
screw mounting
Memory: 64Mb/16Mb or 128Mb/32Mb Flash/PSRAM internal memory
RF Interface: U.FL connector or SMT pad (part of the LGA module)
SIM interface: External SIM card interface, or internal Embedded SIM (eSIM)
The G30 series was designed for Zero time, Zero effort integration, getting you to market faster 
than ever. The G30 features both an 81 pin LGA interface form factor and an optional 70-pin B2B 
connector for various design possibilities. The optional connectorized platform maintains the 
same mounting design as the award winning G24 module, so you can leverage the G30’s rich 
feature set but remain with your connectorized design. The G30 Series also shares a unified 
software interface with the G24 family, including compatible AT commands and TCP/IP stacks.
