Chapter 1. Introduction
The SEC1110/SEC1210/SEC1212-DEV is a family low power, OEM configurable, sin-
gle-chip smartcard reader solutions. Three evaluation boards (EVBs) are available for
device development:
• EVB-SEC2112-DEV
• EVB-SEC1210
• EVB-SEC1110
These EVBs demonstrate standalone solutions with all of the interfaces and features
listed the following sub-sections. For details on each individual EVB, refer to Chapter 2.
1.1
SEC1110 FEATURES
1.1.1
Smartcard
• Single Smartcard slot
• Fully compliant with the ISO/IEC 7816, EMV and PC/SC standards
• Versatile ETU rate generation, supporting current and proposed rates (to 861
Kbps and beyond)
• Full support of both T=0 and T=1 protocols
• Full-packet FIFO (259 bytes) for transmit and receive
• Half-Duplex operation, with no software intervention required between transmit
and receive phases of an exchange
• Very loose real-time response required of software
• (worst case scenario of approximately 180 ms)
• Dynamically programmable FIFO threshold, with byte granularity
• Time-out FIFO flush interrupt, independent of threshold
• Programmable Smart Card clock frequency
• UART-like register file structure
• Supports Class A, Class B, Class C, or Class AB Smart Cards (all 1.8 V, 3 V and
5 V cards)
• Automatic Character Repetition for T=0 protocol Parity Error recovery
• Automatic card deactivation on card removal and on other system events, includ-
ing persistent Parity Errors
1.1.2
USB
• Supports Full-Speed data transfer
• Endpoints can be configured for control, bulk & interrupt transfer types
• Max packet size configurable for each endpoint
• (8 / 16/ 32/ 64 bytes are allowed)
• Ping pong buffers supported for non-control endpoints
