Guidelines for single SIM card connection with detection
A removable SIM card placed in a SIM card holder must be connected to the SIM card interface of TOBY-R2
series modules as described in Figure 48, where the optional SIM card detection feature is implemented.
Follow these guidelines to connect the module to a SIM connector implementing SIM presence detection:
Connect the UICC / SIM contacts C1 (VCC) to the VSIM pin of the module.
Connect the UICC / SIM contact C7 (I/O) to the SIM_IO pin of the module.
Connect the UICC / SIM contact C3 (CLK) to the SIM_CLK pin of the module.
Connect the UICC / SIM contact C2 (RST) to the SIM_RST pin of the module.
Connect the UICC / SIM contact C5 (GND) to ground.
Connect one pin of the normally-open mechanical switch integrated in the SIM connector (e.g. the SW2 pin
as described in Figure 48) to the GPIO5 input pin of the module.
Connect the other pin of the normally-open mechanical switch integrated in the SIM connector (e.g. the
SW1 pin as described in Figure 48) to the V_INT 1.8 V supply output of the module by means of a strong
(e.g. 1 k) pull-up resistor, as the R1 resistor in Figure 48.
Provide a weak (e.g. 470 k) pull-down resistor at the SIM detection line, as the R2 resistor in Figure 48
Provide a 100 nF bypass capacitor (e.g. Murata GRM155R71C104K) at the SIM supply line, close to the
related pad of the SIM connector, to prevent digital noise.
Provide a bypass capacitor of about 22 pF to 47 pF (e.g. Murata GRM1555C1H470J) on each SIM line, very
close to each related pad of the SIM connector, to prevent RF coupling especially in case the RF antenna is
placed closer than 10 - 30 cm from the SIM card holder.
Provide a very low capacitance (i.e. less than 10 pF) ESD protection (e.g. Tyco PESD0402-140) on each
externally accessible SIM line, close to each related pad of the SIM connector: ESD sensitivity rating of the
SIM interface pins is 1 kV (HBM), so that, according to the EMC/ESD requirements of the custom application,
higher protection level can be required if the lines are externally accessible on the application device.
Limit capacitance and series resistance on each SIM signal to match the SIM requirements (27.7 ns is the
maximum allowed rise time on clock line, 1.0 µs is the maximum allowed rise time on data and reset lines).
