The figure below shows a circuit to connect an external SIM card holder.
Figure 5: External UICC/SIM/USIM card holder circuit
The total cable length between the SMT application interface pads on ELS31-US/ELS51-US
and the pads of the external SIM card holder must not exceed 100mm in order to meet the
specifications of 3GPP TS 51.010-1 and to satisfy the requirements of EMC compliance.
To avoid possible cross-talk from the CCCLK signal to the CCIO signal be careful that both
lines are not placed closely next to each other. A useful approach is using a GND line to shield
the CCIO line from the CCCLK line.
The ELS31-US/ELS51-US includes embedded ESD protection for the SIM interface that com-
plies to ETSI EN 301 489-1/7: Contact discharge: ± 4kV, air discharge: ± 8kV.
