Page 9 of 35

2.1.4 UICC/SIM/USIM Interface

ELS31-V / ELS51-V 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 3V and 1.8V SIM cards. 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 operation. 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 tested to operate with ELS31-V / ELS51-V and is part of the Gemalto M2M reference equipment submitted for type approval. See Section 7.1 for Molex ordering numbers.

Table 1: Signals of the SIM interface (SMT application interface)

Signal Description

GND Separate ground connection for SIM card to improve EMC. CCCLK Chipcard clock CCVCC SIM supply voltage. CCIO Serial data line, input and output. CCRST Chipcard 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 destruction of the SIM. The CCIN signal is by default low and will 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 ELS31-V

/ ELS51-V.

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 initializing any SIM card that the user inserts after having removed the SIM card during operation. In this case, the application must restart ELS31-V / ELS51-V.

Figure 5: External UICC/SIM/USIM card holder circuit

The total cable length between the SMT application interface pads on ELS31-V / ELS51-V and the pads of the external SIM card holder must not exceed 100mm in order to meet the specifications of 3GPP TS 51.010-1 and to satisfy the requirements of EMC compliance.

To avoid possible cross-talk from the CCCLK signal to the CCIO signal be careful that both lines are not placed closely next to each other. A useful approach is using a GND line to shield the CCIO line from the CCCLK line.

2.1.6 I2C Interface

I2C is a serial, 8-bit oriented data transfer bus for bit rates up to 400kbps in Fast mode. It consists of two lines, the serial data line I2CDAT and the serial clock line I2CCLK. The module acts as a single master device, e.g. the clock I2CCLK is driven by the module. I2CDAT is a bi-directional line. Each device connected to the bus is software addressable by a unique 7-bit address, and simple master/slave relationships exist at all times. The module operates a s mastertransmitter or as master-receiver. The customer application transmits or receives data only on request of the module.

The I

C interface can be powered via the V180 line of ELS31-V / ELS51-V. If connected to the V180 line, the I mode.

Note: Good care should be taken when creating the PCB layout of the host application: The traces of I2CCLK and I2CDAT should be equal in length and as short as possible.

C interface will properly shut down when the module enters the Power Down

2.2 RF Antenna Interface

The RF interface has an impedance of 50. ELS31-V /ELS51-V is capable of sustaining a total mismatch at the antenna line without any damage, even when transmitting at maximum RF power.

The external antenna must be matched properly to achieve best performance regarding radiated power, modulation accuracy and harmonic suppression. Antenna matching networks are not included on the ELS31-V / ELS51-V module and should be placed in the host application if the antenna does not have an impedance of 50

Page 15 of 35

2.2.1 Antenna Installation

The antenna is connected by soldering the antenna pads (RF_OUT, pad #59 and DIV_ANT, pad 56) its neighboring ground pads (GND, i.e., pads #55, #57, #58 and #60) directly to the application’s PCB. The antenna pad is the antenna reference point (ARP) for ELS31-V / ELS51-V. All RF data specified throughout this document is related to the ARP.

The distance between the antenna RF pads and its neighb oring GND pads has been optimized for best possible impedance. On the application PCB, special attention should be paid to these 3 pads, in order to prevent mismatch.

The wiring of the antenna connection line, starting from the antenna pad to the application antenna should result in a 50 to be optimized with regard to the PCB’s layer stack.

To prevent receiver desensitization due to interferences generated by fast transients like high speed clocks on the application PCB, it is recommended to realize the antenna connection line using embedded Stripline rather than Micro-Stripline technology.

For type approval purposes, the use of a 50

 coaxial antenna connector (U.FL-R-SMT) might

be necessary. In this case the U.FL-R-SMT connector should be placed as close as possible to ELS31-V / ELS51-V‘s antenna pad.

2.3 Sample Application

Page 16 of 35

2.3 Sample Application

Figure 6 shows a typical example of how to integrate a ELS31-V / ELS51-V module with an

application. Usage of the various host interfaces depends on the desired features of the application.

Because of the high RF field density inside the module, it cannot be guaranteed that no self interference might occur, depending on frequency and the applications grounding concept. The potential interferers may be minimized by placing small capacitors (47pF) at suspected lines (e.g. RXD0, VDDLP, and ON).

While developing SMT applications it is strongly recommended to provide test points for certain signals, i.e., lines to and from the module - for debug and/or test purposes. The SMT application should allow for an easy access to these signals. For details on how to implement test points see [4].

The EMC measures are best practice recommendations. In fact, an adequate EMC strategy for an individual application is very much determined by the overall layout and, especially, the position of components. For example, mounting the internal acoustic transducers directly on the PCB eliminates the need to use the ferrite beads shown in the sample schematic.

Note: ELS31-V / ELS51-V is not intended for use with cables longer than 3m. Disclaimer

No warranty, either stated or implied, is provided on the sample schematic diagram shown in

Figure 6 and the information detailed in this section. As functionality and compliance with na-

tional regulations depend to a great amount on the used electronic components and the individual application layout manufacturers are required to ensure adequate design and operating safeguards for their products using ELS31-V / ELS51-V modules.

3.2 Power Supply

Page 19 of 35

3.2 Power Supply

ELS31-V/ ELS51-V needs to be connected to a power supply at the SMT application interface

- 2 BATT lines and GND. There are two separate voltage domains for BATT:

• BATT_BB with a line mainly for the baseband power supply.

• BATT_RF with a line for the RF power amplifier supply. Please note that throughout the document BATT refers to both voltage domains and power

supply lines - BATT_BB and BATT_RF. The power supply of ELS31-V / ELS51-V has to be a single voltage source at BATT_BB and

BATT_RF. It must be able to provide the current for all operation modes of the module. All the key functions for supplying power to the device are handled by t he power management

section of the analog controller. This IC provides the following features:

• Stabilizes the supply voltages for the baseba nd using low drop linear voltage regulators and

a DC-DC step down switching regulator.

• Switches the module's power voltages for the power-up and -down procedures.

• SIM switch to provide SIM power supply.

Page 24 of 35

5.2 SAR requirements specific to portable mobiles

Mobile phones, PDAs or other portable transmitters and receivers incorporating a GSM module must be in accordance with the guidelines for human exposure to radio frequency energy. This requires the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of portable ELS31V / ELS51-V based applications to be evaluated and approved for compliance with national and/or international regulations.

Since the SAR value varies significantly with the individual product design manufacturers are advised to submit their product for approval if designed for portable use. For US markets the relevant directives are mentioned below. It is the responsibility of the manufacturer of the final product to verify whether or not further standards, recommendations or directives are in force outside these areas.

Products intended for sale on US markets

ES 59005/ANSI C95.1 Considerations for evaluation of human exposure to Electromagnetic

Fields (EMFs) from Mobile Telecommunication Equipment (MTE) in the frequency range 30MHz - 6GHz

Please note that SAR requirements are specific only for portable devices and not for mobile devices as defined below:

• Portable device:

A portable device is defined as a transmitting device designed to be used so that the radiating structure(s) of the device is/are within 20 centimeters of the body of the user.

• Mobile device:

A mobile device is defined as a transmitting device designed to be used in other than fixe d locations and to generally be used in such a way that a separation distance of at least 20 centimeters is normally maintained between the transmitter's radiating structure(s) and the body of the user or nearby persons. In this context, the term ''fixed location'' means that the device is physically secured at one location and is not able to be easily moved to another location.

6.4 Safety Precaution Notes

Page 32 of 35

6.4 Safety Precaution Notes

The following safety precautions must be observed during all phases of the operation, usage, service or repair of any cellular terminal or mobile incorporating ELS31-V. Manufacturers of the cellular terminal are advised to convey the following safety information to users and ope rating personnel and to incorporate these guidelines into all manuals supplied with the product. Failure to comply with these precautions violates safety standards of design, manufacture and intended use of the product. Gemalto M2M assumes no liability for customer’s failure to comply with these precautions.

When in a hospital or other health care facility, observe the restrictions on the use of mobiles. Switch the cellular terminal or mobile off, if instructed to do so by the guidelines posted in sensitive areas. Medical equipment may be sensitive to RF energy. The operation of cardiac pacemakers, other implanted medical equipment and hearing aids can be affected by interference from cellular terminals or mobiles placed close to the device. If in doubt about potential danger, contact the physician or the manufa cturer of the device to verify that the equipment is properly shielded. Pacemaker patients are advised to keep their hand-held mob ile a way from the pace maker , while it is on.

Switch off the cellular terminal or mobile before boarding an aircraft. Make sure it cannot be switched on inadvertently. The operation of wireless appliances in an aircraft is forbidden to prevent interference with communications systems. Failure to observe these instructions may lead to the suspension or denial of cellular services to the offender, legal action, or both.

Do not operate the cellular terminal or mobile in the presence of flammable gases or fumes. Switch off the cellular terminal when you are near petrol stations, fuel depots, chemical plants or where blasting operations are in progress. Operation of any electrical equipment in potentially explosive atmospheres can constitute a safety hazard.

Your cellular terminal or mobile receives and transmits radio frequency energy while switched on. Remember that interference can occur if it is used close to TV sets, radios, computers or inadequately shielded equipment. Follow any special regulations and always switch off the cellular terminal or mobile wherever forbidd en, or when you suspect that it may cause interference or danger.

Road safety comes first! Do not use a hand-held cellular terminal or mobile when driving a vehicle, unless it is securely mounted in a holder for speakerphone operation. Before making a call with a hand-held terminal or mobile, park the vehicle. Speakerphones must be installed by qualified personnel. Faulty installation or operation can constitute a safety hazard.

IMPORTANT! Cellular terminals or mobiles operate using radio signals and cellular networks. Because of this, connection cannot be guaranteed at all times under all conditions. Therefore, you should never rely solely upon any wireless device for essential communications, for example emergency calls. Remember, in order to make or receive calls, the cellular terminal or mobile must be switched on and in a service area with adequate cellular signal strength. Some networks do not allow for emergency calls if certain network services or phone features are in use (e.g. lock functions, fixed dialing etc.). You may need to deactivate those features before you can make an emergency call. Some networks require that a valid SIM card be properly inserted in the cellular terminal or mobile.
