STEVAL-IPT007V1

Smartcard interface evaluation board based on the ST8034HC

Data brief

Features

• Smartcard connector

• Labeled test-points provide accessibility to all

signals on the board

• Design allows standalone operation for basic

tests

• Interface to MCU block and easy board

configurability allows full-featured functionality

for applications such as set-top box

• On-board 10 MHz crystal clock oscillator can

be used to provide card clock in standalone

operation

• Card clock source selection switch allows a

choice between the on-board crystal oscillator

as card clock source, or an external clock

source provided by microcontroller block

through the MCU interface together with data

signals

• Card supply voltage selection provides simple

but flexible card supply through either on-board

configuration switches or remotely by

microcontroller

• RoHS compliant

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.
