3.5.3.7. (U)SIM
The (U)SIM interface circuitry meets ETSI and IMT-2000 requirements. Both Class B (3.0 V) and Class C
(1.8 V) (U)SIM cards are supported, and Dual SIM Single Standby* function is supported.

NOTE
"*" means under development.
RM500Q-AE&RM502Q-AE supports (U)SIM card hot-plug via the USIM_DET pin. With a normally closed
(U)SIM card connector, the USIM_DET is normally short-circuited to ground when a (U)SIM card is not
inserted, and the USIM_DET will change from low to high voltage level when a (U)SIM card is inserted.
The rising edge indicates an insertion of the (U)SIM card. When the (U)SIM card is removed, USIM_DET
will change from high to low voltage level. This falling edge indicates a removal of the (U)SIM card.
Normally Closed (U)SIM Card Connector:
⚫
When the (U)SIM is absent, CD is short-circuited to ground and USIM_DET is at low voltage level.
⚫
When the (U)SIM is inserted, CD is open from ground and USIM_DET is at high voltage level.
The following figure shows a reference design of (U)SIM interface with a normally closed (U)SIM card
connector.
