Integrating customers smartcard infrastructure

bwofsi — Wed, 16 Aug 2023 08:58:12 GMT

Hello,

We'd like to integrate with some customers smartcard infrastructure.
We cannot control which cards and standards are used and therefore would need an MCU that can read all cards possibly in use.
Private keys will be provided by the customers.
If we'd need several MCUs, please tell us the complete list.

Best wishes,
Fabiano

Hi @bwofsi ,

What kind of interface between the smartcard and MCU? is it a contact interface or contactless interface?

Please kindly clarify.

Have a great day,
Kan

Sorry for being unprecise. I meant contactless interface/smartcards.

Hi @bwofsi ,

Thanks for the clarification! I would recommend PN7642 for such case, which supports both of contact & contactless interfaces , with a M33 core inside, should be able to handle card reading tasks. Please kindly refer to https://www.nxp.com/products/rfid-nfc/nfc-hf/nfc-readers/single-chip-solution-with-high-performance-nfc-reader-customizable-mcu-and-security-toolbox:PN7642 for more details.

Hope that helps,

Have a great day,
Kan
