Guidelines for single SIM card connection with detection
SIM card detection is not supported by SARA-G300-00S and SARA-G310-00S modules.
A removable SIM card placed in a SIM card holder must be connected to the SIM card interface of
SARA-G3 modules as described in Figure 45Figure 45, where the optional SIM card detection feature is
implemented.
Follow these guidelines connecting the module to a SIM connector implementing SIM presence detection:
 Connect the UICC / SIM contacts C1 (VCC) and C6 (VPP) 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 mechanical switch integrated in the SIM connector (e.g. the SW2 pin as
described in Figure 45Figure 45) to the SIM_DET input pin of the module
 Connect the other pin of the mechanical switch integrated in the SIM connector (e.g. the SW1 pin as
described in Figure 45Figure 45) 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 Figure 45Figure 45
 Provide a weak (e.g. 470 k) pull-down resistor at the SIM detection line, as the R2 resistor in
Figure 45Figure 45
 Provide a 100 nF bypass capacitor (e.g. Murata GRM155R71C104K) at the SIM supply line
(VSIM), close to the relevant pad of the SIM connector, to prevent digital noise
