Note: ESD protection is highly recommended for the USIM connector

at the point where the contacts are exposed, and for any other signals

from the host interface that would be subjected to ESD by the user of

the product.

Module power states

Note: The module unit defaults

to the Normal state when

VCC3.3 is first applied in the

absence of W_Disable# control.

Disconnected state

Note: The difference between

the Disconnected and Off states

is that, in the Off state, the

module is still connected to the

power source and draws minimal

current.

Device-generated RF

Note: The module can cause

interference with other devices

such as hearing aids and on-

board speakers.

Wireless devices such as the

Mini Card transmit in bursts

(pulse transients) for set

durations (RF burst frequencies).

Hearing aids and speakers

convert these burst frequencies

into audible frequencies,

resulting in audible noise.

Mode Details

Handset •Short echo path (<16 ms travel time from speaker to

microphone)

•Handset design requires good isolation between

speaker and microphone

•Echo canceller allows full-duplex conversation with

absolute minimum echo

Headset •Short echo path (<16 ms travel time from speaker to

microphone)

•Headset design may allow higher echo than

handset mode—microphone and speaker are physi-

cally closer

•More aggressive echo canceller algorithm allows

full-duplex conversation on headsets with good

isolation

Car kit •Long echo path (<64 ms travel time from speaker to

microphone)

•Loud echo

•For use with hands-free car kit or speakerphone

applications with mild distortion
