6    OUTPUT LINES (Speaker)  
6.1 Short description. 
 
The Telit GM862-GPS provides two audio paths in receive section.  Only one of the two paths can be 
active at a time, selectable by AXE hardware line or by AT command.  
 
You must keep in mind the different audio characteristics of the receive blocks when designing : 
 
Æ
 
the  Ear_MT”  lines  EPN1  and  EPP1 are the Differential Line-Out Drivers ; they can drive an 
external amplifier or directly  a 16 Ω  earpiece  at –12dBFS (*)  ;  
Æ
 the “Ear_HF” lines EPPA1_2 and EPPA2 are the Fully Differential Power Buffers ; they can directly 
drive a 16Ω  speaker in differential (balanced) or single ended (unbalanced) operation mode . 
 
(*)  FS : acronym of Full Scale. It is equal to 0dB, the maximum Hardware Analog Receive Gain of 
BaseBand Chip. 
 
The Ear_MT” audio path should be used for handset function, while the “Ear_HF” audio path is suited 
for hands-free function (car kit). 
 
Both receiver outputs are B.T.L. type (Bridged Tie Load) and the OEM circuitry shall be designed 
bridged to reduce the common mode noise typically generated on the ground plane and to get the 
maximum power output from the device; however also a single ended circuitry can be designed for 
particular OEM application needs.
