Description

Smart Cards are increasingly being used for Payments, Home-Banking, Access Control,

Internet Security, PKItokens, Health Care, Loyalty, etc.

The CardManSmart@Link chip set is a ready to use precertified smart card reader inter-

face, that can be implemented into USB hosts. It facilitates hardware integrators by

reducing time-to-market and offers a unique opportunity to quickly and easily include

smart card reader functionality in systems like PCs, Notebooks, Keyboards, Smart Card

based Dongles, Monitors, Mice, PDAs, Thin Clients, Biometric devices etc. The already

existing certifications and compliances guarantee a fast and easy certification process.

With its high performance Smart Card Interface CardMan Smart@Link supports smart-

card technology of the future.

The integration in any USB system can be easily done without any firmware or software

(driver) development, simply by embedding the CardMan Smart@Link design and

chipset into the target system. The USB CCID support makes this process the easiest

ever by connecting host and Smart Card Reader systems without the need of additional

drivers.

CardMan Smart@Link combines Atmel’s AT83C5123 microcontroller and Omnikey

firmware.
