Guidelines for single SIM chip connection
An application circuit for the connection to a single solderable SIM chip (M2M UICC Form Factor) is described in
Figure 63, where the optional SIM detection feature is not implemented (see the circuit described in Figure 64 if
the SIM detection feature is required).
Follow these guidelines connecting 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 (VSIM) close to
the related 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
(VSIM, SIM_CLK, SIM_IO, SIM_RST), to prevent RF coupling especially in case the RF antenna is placed
closer than 10 - 30 cm from the SIM card holder.
 Limit capacitance and series resistance on each SIM signal (SIM_CLK, SIM_IO, SIM_RST) to match the
requirements for the SIM interface (27.7 ns is the maximum allowed rise time on the SIM_CLK line, 1.0 µs is
the maximum allowed rise time on the SIM_IO and SIM_RST lines).
