In order to enhance the reliability and availability of the (U)SIM cards in customers’ applications, please
follow the criteria below in the (U)SIM circuit design:
• Keep placement of (U)SIM card connector to the module as close as possible. Keep the trace length
as less than 200mm as possible.
• Keep (U)SIM card signals away from RF and VBAT traces.
• Make sure the bypass capacitor between USIM_VDD and USIM_GND less than 1 μF, and place it as
