GSM Shield does not work using External Power Supply #23

ronistiawan commented 9 years ago

I'm using Icomsat GSM Shield, it works perfectly fine if it's attached on arduino board. but it doesn't give correct respons if I use external power supply. what could be the problem?

madmaze commented 9 years ago

is there a level shifting issue? 5V vs 3.3v? Can your external power supply provide enough power? or loose connections perhaps?

ronistiawan commented 9 years ago

I tried using 4.5V, 6V, and 9V. but the shield didn't work.

How much power can it produce? The sim chip needs a lot of power.
