Product overview
Description
The ST8034xx interface devices are placed between the smartcard and the microcontroller to provide all necessary supply, protection, detection and control functions, while requiring a minimum of external components.
The STEVAL-IPT007V1 product evaluation board allows easy demonstration and testing of the ST8034HC 24-pin smartcard interface features.
The board can also be used as a functional block for a complete application, as it is designed both for standalone operation or to be controlled by the microcontroller. The board is fully configurable to maintain flexibility for various use scenarios. It includes standard interfaces on both sides (smartcard connector, MCU interface connector) and easily accessed, labeled test-points on all signals.
The STEVAL-IPT007V1 product evaluation board addresses market segments including POS, set-top boxes, pay TV, identification, banking and tachograph.
-
All features
- Smartcard connector
- Labeled test-points provide accessibility to all signals on the board
