MAX1840/MAX1841
General Description
The MAX1840/MAX1841 subscriber identity module
(SIM)/smart card level translators provide level shifting
and electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection for SIM and
smart card ports. These devices integrate two unidirectional level shifters for the reset and clock signals, a bidirectional level shifter for the serial data stream, and
±10kV ESD protection on all card contacts.
The MAX1840 includes a SHDN control input to aid
insertion and removal of SIM and smart cards, while the
MAX1841 includes a system-side data driver to support
system controllers without open-drain outputs. The logic
supply voltage range is +1.4V to +5.5V for the “controller
side” and +1.7V to +5.5V for the “card side.” Total supply current is 1.0µA. Both devices automatically shut
down when either power supply is removed. For a complete SIM card interface, combine the MAX1840/
MAX1841 with the MAX1686H 0V/3V/5V regulated
charge pump.
The MAX1840/MAX1841 are available in ultra-small
10-pin µMAX packages that are only 1.09mm high and
half the area of an 8-pin SO.
The MAX1840/MAX1841 are compliant with GSM test
specifications 11.11 and 11.12.

Low-Voltage SIM/Smart Card
Level Translators in µMAX
Detailed Description
The MAX1840/MAX1841 provide the necessary level
translation for interfacing with SIMs and smart cards in
multivoltage systems. These devices operate with logic
supply voltages between +1.4V and +5.5V on the controller side (DVCC) and between +1.7V and +5.5V on the
card side (VCC). The total supply current (IDVCC + IVCC)
is 1µA while operating in an idle state (see Electrical
Characteristics). Figure 1 shows the MAX1840/MAX1841
test circuit. The Typical Application Circuit appears at the
end of this data sheet.

Level Translation
The MAX1840/MAX1841 provide level translators for a
clock input, a reset input, and a bidirectional data IO.
The clock and reset inputs (CIN and RIN) are level shifted from the controller-side supply rails (DVCC to GND)
to the card-side supply rails (VCC to GND). When connected to an open-drain controller output, DATA and IO
provide bidirectional level translation. All level translation is valid for DV CC ≥ V CC or DV CC ≤ V CC . The
MAX1840/MAX1841 contain internal pull up resistors
from DATA to the controller-side supply (DVCC) and
from IO to the card-side supply (VCC). For push-pull
controller outputs, see the Data Driver section for bidirectional data translation.
Data Driver (MAX1841 Only)
When using a microcontroller (µC) without an open-drain
output, use the data driver (DDRV) input to send data to
the SIM/smart card, while DATA provides the controllerside output for bidirectional data transfer. When not
used, connect DDRV to DVCC to reduce total supply current.
Shutdown Mode
For the MAX1840, drive SHDN low to activate shutdown. Connect SHDN to DVCC or drive high for normal
operation. To allow for card insertion and removal, shutdown mode actively pulls CLK, RST, and IO low; it also
disconnects the internal 10kΩ pull up resistor from VCC
to prevent excessive current draw. Shutdown mode
reduces the total supply current (I DVCC + I VCC ) to
0.01µA.
SIM/Smart Card Insertion/Removal
The SIM/smart card specifications require that the cardside pins (VCC, CLK, RST, IO) be at ground potential
prior to inserting the SIM/smart card. For applications
using the MAX1686H (Figure 3), the easiest way to
achieve this is by shutting down the MAX1686H or by

driving SHDN (MAX1840 only) low. If specific sequencing is desired, pull IO low by driving either DATA or
DDRV (MAX1841 only) low, and pull CLK and RST low
by driving CIN and RIN low, respectively.
ESD Protection
As with all Maxim devices, ESD-protection structures on
all pins protect against ESDs encountered during handling and assembly. For further protection during card
insertion and removal, the pins that connect to the card
socket (CLK, RST, IO, VCC, and GND) provide protection against ±10kV of ESD. The ESD structures withstand high ESD in all states: normal operation,
shutdown, and power-down. After an ESD event, the
MAX1840/MAX1841 continue working without latchup.
A 1µF bypass capacitor from VCC to GND is required to
exceed ±10kV ESD specifications.
ESD Test Conditions
ESD performance depends on a variety of conditions.
Contact Maxim for a reliability report documenting test
setup, test methodology, and test results.
