Driver for SIMCOM SIM7600 series

DhruvaG2000 commented 3 years ago

I am requesting a driver for SIM7600X series.

Device description

The SIM7600 is Multi-Band LTE-TDD/LTE-FDD/HSPA+ and GSM/GPRS/EDGE module solution in a SMT type which supports LTE CAT1 up to 10Mbps for downlink data transfer.
It has strong extension capability with rich interfaces including UART, USB2.0, I2C, GPIO etc. With abundant application capability like TCP/UDP/FTP/FTPS/HTTP/HTTPS/DNS, the module provides much flexibility and ease of integration for customer's application.

Device information

The SIM7600 series integrates multiple satellite high accuracy positioning GNSS systems, with multiple built-in network protocols, supports drivers for main operation systems (USB driver for Windows, Linux and Android etc.) and software function, AT commands are compatible with SIM7500/SIM7600-H series modules. Meanwhile the SIM7600 series integrates main industrial standard interfaces, with powerful expansibility, including abundant interfaces such as UART, USB, I2C, GPIO, which is suitable for main IoT applications such as telematics, surveillance devices, CPE, industrial routers, and remote diagnostics etc.

Yes,this would be useful.

This will take some time. Firstly, I don't have this module and secondly, I can't just port TinyGSM because of the license: only licenses allowed in this project are MIT, BSD, EPL, ISC, CC and so on, no GPL/LGPL.

But, of course, you can develop the driver yourself or at least help me (or other developers) in debugging.

DhruvaG2000 commented 3 years ago

Yes, let us know how we can collab, We would be happy to test, debug and develop as we have the actual module.

Hello @olliiiver,

I saw that you have created a driver for SIM7600.

Would it be possible to help us porting it, since it is MIT licensed, to this library?

It's been 3 years, but I guess I'll leave this here if anybody else comes looking.

Have you considered using esp-modem: https://github.com/espressif/esp-protocols/tree/32ac21b03ce831178a8142c41801640de26f045c/components/esp_modem
