2.4.2.2 Guidelines for ANT_DET layout design
The recommended layout for the primary antenna detection circuit to be provided on the application board
to achieve the primary antenna detection functionality, implementing the recommended schematic
illustrated in Figure 35 and Table 29, is explained here:
The ANT1 / ANT2 pins must be connected to the antenna connector by means of a 50 transmission
line, implementing the design guidelines described in section 2.4.1 and the recommendations of the
SMA connector manufacturer.
DC blocking capacitor at ANT1 / ANT2 pins (C2, C3) must be placed in series to the 50 RF line.
The ANT_DET pin must be connected to the 50 transmission line by means of a sense line.
Choke inductors in series at the ANT_DET pin (L1, L2) must be placed so that one pad is on the 50
transmission line and the other pad represents the start of the sense line to the ANT_DET pin.
The additional components (R1, C1 and D1) on the ANT_DET line must be placed as ESD protection.
2.5 SIM interfaces
2.5.1 Guidelines for SIM circuit design
TOBY-L3 series modules provide one SIM interface for the direct connection of external SIM cards/chips:
SIM interface (VSIM, SIM_IO, SIM_CLK, SIM_RST pins)
The ISO/IEC 7816, the ETSI TS 102 221 and the ETSI TS 102 671 specifications define the physical, electrical
and functional characteristics of Universal Integrated Circuit Cards (UICC), which contains the Subscriber
Identification Module (SIM) integrated circuit that securely stores all the information needed to identify and
authenticate subscribers over the LTE/3G/2G network.
Removable UICC / SIM card contact mapping is defined by ISO/IEC 7816 and ETSI TS 102 221:
Contact C1 = VCC (Supply) It must be connected to VSIM
Contact C2 = RST (Reset) It must be connected to SIM_RST
Contact C3 = CLK (Clock) It must be connected to SIM_CLK
Contact C4 = AUX1 (Auxiliary contact) It must be left not connected
Contact C5 = GND (Ground) It must be connected to GND
Contact C6 = VPP (Programming supply) It can be left not connected
Contact C7 = I/O (Data input/output) It must be connected to SIM_IO
Contact C8 = AUX2 (Auxiliary contact) It must be left not connected
A removable SIM card can have 6 contacts (C1, C2, C3, C5, C6, C7) or 8 contacts, also including the auxiliary
contacts C4 and C8. Only 5 contacts are required (C1, C2, C3, C5, C7) to be connected.
