Can't get output voltage in pin SIM_VDD of SIM300 module

[anitha.rajakani]

HI All
Currently i'm working in SIM300 module.
where in pin SIM_VDD,no output voltage is available to drive my SIMCARD.
Please help me with this.I've attached my PCB design.
Thanks in advance.

The value of C1 is too small - tbis is the load capacitor for the internal SIM_VDD voltage regulator. Change it to .22uF.

Thankyou,
i've changed the capacitor value.
But still i didn'tget any voltage at pin no:19(SIM_VDD)

Added after 4 hours 9 minutes:

finally i got it work.i can send SMS.
could you please tell me how to read SMS?
i tried d following
AT+CMGL="REC UNREAD"
OK
AT+CMGL="ALL"
this also works.
but i couldn't get the new sms notifications and i couldn't read the same.
what are the commands to give new SMS alert?
i tried
AT+CNMI=?
+CNMI: (0-3),(0-3),(0,2),(0-1),(0)

OK
at+cpms=?
+CPMS: ("SM"),("SM"),("SM")

OK
what should i do with above to read new SMS?

Hi everybody.

Can anyone give me a clear and tested schematic to connect SIM300CZ TX RX and PIC16F877A Tx Rx.

Thanks in advance

Hi everybody.
Can anyone give me a clear and tested schematic to connect SIM300CZ TX RX and PIC16F877A Tx Rx.

I don't have time to draw out schematic, but connection between PIC and SIM is quite simple.

Connect PIC16F877A TX pin to SIM300CZ RX pin 
Connect PIC16F877A RX pin to SIM300CZ TX pin

Is it works for module (3.8V) and 16f877A(5V). I dont think that is working the directly connection between tx <-> rx. Can you please confirm it.

sim300cz connect 16f877

you have to see the range of voltage used for TX and RX in both IC to see if it matched each other (not exceed the limit)

what changes you made to work (SIM300). Iam facing same problem. can you plz suggest? Thanks in advance

I am not getting SIM_VDD for SIM300. What could be solution for this problem.
Module is getting reset. VDD_EXT 2.9

Can you please tell me What changes you have made to make it Work.
