AG35 Hardware Design
AG35_Hardware_Design 49 / 129
AG35 supports (U)SIM card hot-plug via the USIM_PRESENCE pin. The function supports low level and
high level detections, and is disabled by default. Please refer to document [2] about AT+QSIMDET
command for details.
The following figure shows a reference design of (U)SIM interface with an 8-pin (U)SIM card connector.
