GPRS shield

Description:

The GPRS Shield is based on SIMCOM's SIM900 module and compatible with Arduino and its clones. The GPRS shield offers you a way to communicate via the GSM mobile phone network. With the shield you can reach SMS, MMS, GPRS and Audio via UART by sending AT commands (GSM 07.07, 07.05 and SIMCOM enhanced AT commands). The shield also has the 12 GPIOs, 2 PWMs and an ADC of the SIM900 module (they are all 2V8 logic) present on board.
