After a long press on this button, the other three LED will be light, a LED start flashing, and SIM908 is now beginning to work.When the power supply, antenna, SIM card are connected to the module correctly, the LED will flash by boot flash (1S bright 1S out) into slow flash (3S de 1S light), the module is now registered to the network. Notice that: VCC_MCU is used to control the TTL board level interface, so as to realize the matching between 1.25V/3.3V /5V systems. For example: when the board is connected to the 51 MCU, VCC_MCU is needed to connected the DC 5V. and connecter to the sm32 MCU，VCC_MCU is needed to connected to the DC3.3V. In the application of GPS function, we can send AT+CGPSINF=* (* represent specific figures, please see the AT instruction set) command to get the longitude and latitude information through the GPRS TTL interface level, we also can obtain NEMA data through the GPS TTL level interface, so as to obtain the information of latitude and longitude. Notice that: the SIM908 module is turned off GPS function by default. When we use the GPS function, please send two AT commands to open the GPS function, and the commands are AT+CGPSPWR=1 and AT+CGPSRST=1 respectively, two instructions are used to powered GPS and reset GPS. And then, the GPS TTL level interface will send data out, and the baud rate is 115200 by default (we can send the AT command to change). The range of DC005 voltage input is 5 - 26V, when use the 5V power as ahe power, be sure that the power supply can provide 2A current. The range of voltage of Lithium battery input power is 3.5 - 4.2V. The new version of the lithium battery interface location may be changed.

I was not required to write a positive review and I do not rate products higher than they should have been. I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's requirements.I recently received a SIM908 development board from DIYmall for a product review. In addition to the board itself, two antennas ( GSM and GPS ) were included. I believe you would need to use a SIM card tied to T-Mobile network or AT&T network if you plan to use this unit in the US.I used an Arduino UNO to connect with the SIM908 dev board, it took me a while to figure out how to use it - apparently you must have a SIM card in the unit, otherwise it won’t fully start up and won’t respond to AT commands.Once I figured out how to get things connected, I focused on two projects:1) Being able to send “AT” commands to the unit so I could play around with different commands.2) Being able to get GPS information in a NMEA standard format, so that software on my computer could use the data.Overall, this is a neat little board. I didn’t get a chance to write any other programs, but the basic capability of issuing AT commands and getting GPS data both worked fine. I was able to send and receive a sms (text) message which was pretty neat. This sort of board is going to require that you have a solid grasp of Arduino (or whatever board you are using) and how to interact using AT commands -- not something I would recommend for a new user.Here are the Hackster.io projects for Arduino:AT Commands: https://www.hackster.io/bigboystoys13/diymall-gprs-gps-sim908-module-at-commandsGPS Data:https://www.hackster.io/bigboystoys13/diymall-gprs-gps-sim908-module-nmea-dataBottom line: Neat little board to experiment with GSM/GPS capabilities. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/13320438-diymall-sim908-module-gsm-gprs-gps-development-board-ipx-sma](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/13320438-diymall-sim908-module-gsm-gprs-gps-development-board-ipx-sma) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-03*
