N20 supports 1.8 V/2.85 VUIM cards. VUIM is the power supply pin of the UIM card and its maximum
load is 30 mA. The UIM_DATA pin is not pulled up internally, so reserve a pull-up resistor externally in
design. UIM_CLK is the clock signal pin, supporting 3.25 GHz of clock frequency. Figure 2-20 shows the
reference design of the UIM card interface.

ESD protectors, such as ESD diodes or TVS diodes (with a junction capacitance of less than 33 pF), are
recommended to be added on the SIM signals, in most applications with a high requirement of ESD
protection. Add a 20 Ω resistor respectively to UIM_DATA, UIM_RESET, UIM_CLK, and
UIM_PRESENT to enhance the ESD performance.
N20 supports UIM card detection. UIM_PRESENT is a 1.8 V interrupt pin. The UIM detection circuit
works by checking the level across the UIM_PRESENT pin before and after a UIM card is inserted. In the
reference circuit, SIM-DET is not connected before a UIM card is inserted and is grounded after a UIM
card is inserted. Low level means UIM card detected while high level mean no UIM card detected.
