Atmel AVR Microcontroller Targets High-volume USB Smart Card Reader Applications
Atmel has announced a new Atmel AVR microcontroller designed for the smart card reader market. Targeting the low-cost, high volume market, Atmel's new AT90SCR050 is a complete system solution that enables designers to bring their products faster-to-market. The AT90SCR050 includes an industry-proven Atmel AVR microcontroller, 16 KB of ROM, USB FS2.0 and smart card interface with an integrated DC/DC to support cards compliant with the EMV L1 requirement and ISO7816. These features offer designers a complete system solution to help bring their high-volume products to market at cost-effective price points.
Many everyday applications are beginning to require certain levels of 'smart' technology, said Jean-Charles Lesage, Atmel's marketing manager for smart card reader ICs. Atmel's AT90SCR050 addresses the high-volume market, such as laptops and mobile devices, by offering designers a complete solution to enable their products to compete in a price-competitive market. Sectors such as consumer, corporate and the government are quickly entering the high-volume market and requiring these smart card technologies in their applications. Atmel has a complete portfolio to address these needs.
The AT90SCR050 is a member of the AT90SCR family. With an Atmel AVR secure microcontroller embedded in these devices, customers can take advantage of the free AVR Studio® and AVR JTAGICE mkII that support all AVR-based microcontrollers. An evaluation kit AT90SCR100MEB-01 is available for this device.
