1.7 Environmental Protection Statement
This product has been manufactured to satisfy environmental protection requirements wherever possible. Many of the
components used (structural parts, printed circuit boards, connectors, batteries, etc.) are capable of being recycled.
Final disposal of this product after its service life must be accomplished in accordance with applicable country, state,
or local laws or regulations. All components within this product fulfill the requirements of the RoHS (Restriction of
Hazardous Substances Directive). The product is soldered with a lead free process.
1.8 RoHS Commitment
Kontron Compact Computers AG (Switzerland) is committed to develop and produce environmentally friendly products
according to the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive (2002/95/EC) and the Waste Electrical and
Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive (2002/96/EC) established by the European Union. The RoHS directive was
adopted in February 2003 by the European Union and came into effect on July 1, 2006. It is not a law but a directive,
which restricts the use of six hazardous materials in the manufacturing of various types of electronic and electrical
equipment. It is closely linked with the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (WEEE) 2002/96/EC,
which has set targets for collection, recycling and recovery of electrical goods and is part of a legislative initiative to
solve the problem of huge amounts of toxic e-waste.
Each European Union member state is adopting its own enforcement and implementation policies using the directive
as a guide. Therefore, there could be as many different versions of the law as there are states in the EU. Additionally,
non-EU countries like China, Japan, or states in the U.S. such as California may have their own regulations for green
products, which are similar, but not identical, to the RoHS directive.
RoHS is often referred to as the "lead-free" directive but it restricts the use of the following substances:
»Lead
»Mercury
»Cadmium
»Chromium VI
»PBB and PBDE
The maximum allowable concentration of any of the above mentioned substances is 0.1% (except for Cadmium, which
is limited to 0.01%) by weight of homogeneous material. This means that the limits do not apply to the weight of the
finished product, or even to a component but to any single substance that could (theoretically) be separated
mechanically.

1.8.1 RoHS Compatible Product Design
All Kontron Compact Computers (KCC) AG standard products comply with RoHS legislation.
Since July 1, 2006, there has been a strict adherence to the use of RoHS compliant electronic and mechanical
components during the design-in phase of all KCC AG standard products.
1.8.2 RoHS Compliant Production Process
Kontron Compact Computers AG selects external suppliers that are capable of producing RoHS compliant devices.
These capabilities are verified by:
»A confirmation from the supplier indicating that their production processes and resulting devices are RoHS
compliant.
»If there is any doubt of the RoHS compliancy, the concentration of the previously mentioned substances in a
produced device will be measured. These measurements are carried out by an accredited laboratory.
1.8.3 WEEE Application
The WEEE directive is closely related to the RoHS directive and applies to the following devices:
»Large and small household appliances
»IT equipment
»Telecommunications equipment (although infrastructure equipment is exempt in some countries)
»Consumer equipment
»Lighting equipment – including light bulbs
»Electronic and electrical tools
»Toys, leisure and sports equipment
»Automatic dispensers
It does not apply to fixed industrial plants and tools. The compliance is the responsibility of the company that brings
the product to market, as defined in the directive. Components and sub-assemblies are not subject to product
compliance. In other words, since Kontron Compact Computers AG does not deliver ready-made products to end users
the WEEE directive is not applicable for KCC AG. Users are nevertheless encouraged to properly recycle all electronic
products that have reached the end of their life cycle.
1.9 Swiss Qualit
»100% Made in Switzerland
»This product was not manufactured by employees earning piecework wages
»This product was manufactured in humane work conditions
»All employees who worked on this product are paid customary Swiss market wages and are insured
»ISO 9000:2001 (quality management system)

1.10 The Swiss Association for Qualit and Management S stems
The Swiss Association for Quality and Management Systems (SQS) provides certification and assessment services for
all types of industries and services. SQS certificates are accepted worldwide thanks to accreditation by the Swiss
Accreditation Service (SAS), active membership in the International Certification Network, IQNet, and co-operation
contracts/agreements with accredited partners.
www.sqs.ch
The SQS Certificate ISO 9001:2000 has been issued to Kontron Compact Computers AG in the field of development,
manufacturing and sales of embedded computer boards, embedded computer modules and computer systems. The
certification is valid for three years at which time an audit is performed for recertification.

5.2 UICC/SIM Interface
HC25 has an integrated UICC/SIM interface compatible with the 34.121 USIM Testing IC Card standard. This is wired to
the host interface (board-to-board connector) in order to be connected to an external SIM card holder. Six pins on
the board-to-board connector are reserved for the UICC/SIM interface.
The UICC/SIM interface supports 3V and 1.8V UICC cards.
The CCIN pin serves to detect whether a tray (with SIM card) is present in the card holder. Using the CCIN pin 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 HC25 and is part of the Siemens reference equipment submitted for type approval.
Signals of the UICC/SIM interface (board-to-board connector)
Signal Description
CCGND
Separate ground connection for SIM card to improve EMC.
Be sure to use this ground line for the SIM interface rather than any other ground pin or plane on the module.
CCCLK Chip card clock.
CCVCC SIM supply voltage.
CCIO Serial data line, input and output.
CCRST Chip card 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 pin is active low.
The CCIN pin is mandatory for applications that allow the user to remove the SIM card during operation.
The CCIN pin 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 HC25.
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 a SIM card during operation. In this case, the application must restart HC25.
