2.1.6 UICC/SIM/USIM Interface
TX62/TX82 has an integrated UICC/SIM/USIM interface compatible with the 3GPP 31.102 and
ETSI 102 221. This is wired to the host interface in order to be connected to an external SIM
card holder. Five pads on the SMT application interface are reserved for the SIM interface.
The UICC/SIM/USIM interface supports 1.8V SIM cards. Please refer to Table 4 for electrical
specifications of the UICC/SIM/USIM interface lines.
The CCIN signal serves to detect whether a tray (with SIM card) is present in the card holder.
Using the CCIN signal is mandatory for compliance with the GSM 11.11 recommendation if the
mechanical design of the host application allows the user to remove the SIM card during oper-
ation. To take advantage of this feature, an appropriate SIM card detect switch is required on
the card holder. For example, this is true for the model supplied by Molex, which has been test-
ed to operate with TX62/TX82 and is part of the Thales reference equipment submitted for type
approval. See Section 7.1 for Molex ordering numbers.
Note: No guarantee can be given, nor any liability accepted, if loss of data is encountered after
removing the SIM card during operation. Also, no guarantee can be given for properly initializ-
ing any SIM card that the user inserts after having removed the SIM card during operation. In
this case, the application must restart TX62/TX82.

Signal Description
GND Separate ground connection for SIM card to improve EMC. Thales recommends to use pad
J16 or pad M17 as ground connection.
CCCLK UICC clock
CCVCC SIM supply voltage.
CCIO Serial data line, input and output.
CCRST UICC reset
CCIN Input on the baseband processor for detecting a SIM card tray in the holder. If the SIM is
removed during operation the SIM interface is shut down immediately to prevent destruc-
tion of the SIM. The CCIN signal is by default low and must change to high level if a SIM
card is inserted.
The CCIN signal is mandatory for applications that allow the user to remove the SIM card
during operation.
The CCIN signal is solely intended for use with a SIM card. It must not be used for any other
purposes. Failure to comply with this requirement may invalidate the type approval of
TX62/TX82.
