Guidelines for single SIM chip connection
A solderable SIM chip (M2M UICC Form Factor) has to be connected the SIM card interface of TOBY-R2 series
modules as described in Figure 47.
Follow these guidelines to connect the module to a solderable SIM chip without 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.
Provide a 100 nF bypass capacitor (e.g. Murata GRM155R71C104K) at the SIM supply line close to the
relative pad of the SIM chip, to prevent digital noise.
Provide a bypass capacitor of about 22 pF to 47 pF (e.g. Murata GRM1555C1H470J) on each SIM line, to
prevent RF coupling especially in case the RF antenna is placed closer than 10 - 30 cm from the SIM lines.
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).
