We are building General Purpose card reader using PN7462AU.
Hardware PNEV7452C Eval board.
SDK: FLEXERA Rev 07.09.00 Sep 6, 2023 10:00:00 NFC-LIBRARY-SOFTWARE
Project PN7462AU_ex_phExCcid
We've run into issue, that some cards do not work properly with Contact interface.
It happens only with some cards.
Card without the issue:
Card with the issue, but no issue using NFC
HID Crescendo C2300 https://shop.txsystems.com/products/hid-crescendo-c2300-dual-interface-fido-contact-smart-cards?vari...
Cards without NFC and with the issue
All of the above cards are working correctly with different readers:
Alcor Micro Alcorlink
Gemalto HWP117685E
Issue:
After ATR and first APDU request from PC, there is PHPAL_CT_T1_MAX_RETRY_COUNT error phpalCt_ReceiveGeneral(pbReceiveBuff) in phpalCt_NegoIfsd() function.
The error is ignored in FW, 254 (ICC_MUTE CCID timed out while talking to the ICC) on CCID.
Response to this is taking about 5 seconds.
This use case can be tested with C2300 card and this webside using FIDO passkey https://webauthn.io/
Using NFC or other Contact reader works fine with no issue.
With other cards, the first APDU fails with error 254, the communications continues for a while, but then it stops at some point with card not responding to APDU. I am not sure if root of the problem is that the IFSD was not completed correctly at the begining. But it might be, bacause the C2300 card is responding with ICC_MUTE on every request.
Communication with Gemalto reader, working correctly with no issues
I think this is a bug in the SDK, but my knowledge of ISO7816 protocol is not enough to fix it myself.
Same error OVERRUN with Starcos card
https://smartcard-atr.apdu.fr/parse?ATR=3bda96ff81b1fe451f0780584943412056322e30e9
It happens always on the same request after inserting the card.
I faced into another error, now with THALES SafeNet IDPrime 3940 Fido (PKI)
https://smartcard-atr.apdu.fr/parse?ATR=3bff9600008131fe4380318065b0855956fb120ffc82900002
PH_ERR_CT_OVERUN_ERROR in HandleCommonEvent()
which results in PH_EXCCID_USBCCID_CCID_ERROR_SLOT_ICC_MUTE also
