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
LENA-R8 series modules as described in
, where the optional SIM card detection feature is
implemented.
Follow these guidelines connecting the module to a SIM connector implementing SIM 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
) 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
) 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
•
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 GRM1555C1H470J) 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. Littelfuse 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 the capacitance and series resistance on each SIM signal to match the SIM specifications
for the max allowed rise time.
