Connect one pin of the normally-open mechanical switch integrated in the SIM connector (as the
SW2 pin in Figure 48) to the GPIO5 input pin, providing a weak pull-down resistor (e.g. 470 k, as
R2 in Figure 48).
Connect the other pin of the normally-open mechanical switch integrated in the SIM connector
(SW1 pin in Figure 48) to V_INT 1.8 V supply output by means of a strong pull-up resistor (e.g. 1 k,
as R1 in Figure 48)
Provide a 100 nF bypass capacitor (e.g. Murata GRM155R71C104K) at the SIM supply line (VSIM),
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 GCM1555C1H470JA16) on each
SIM line (VSIM, SIM_CLK, SIM_IO, SIM_RST), 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 low capacitance (i.e. less than 10 pF) ESD protection (e.g. Tyco Electronics
PESD0402-140) on each externally accessible SIM line, close to each related pad of the SIM
connector. The ESD sensitivity rating of SIM interface pins is 1 kV (HBM according to
JESD22-A114), so that, according to the EMC/ESD requirements of the custom application, higher
protection level can be required if the lines are externally accessible.
Limit capacitance and series resistance on each SIM signal to match the requirements for the SIM
interface regarding maximum allowed rise time on the lines.
