© GEMPLUS
The GPR400 Smartcard interface complies with ISO 7816-1,-2, and -3
standards and is compatible with embossed Smartcards. The GPR400 is
connected to a portable PC using a PCMCIA slot (socket).
The GPR400 is compatible with all PCMCIA sockets that accept type II PC
Cards (5.0 mm in thickness). The GPR400 includes a standard 68 pin
connector.
The Smartcard module is compliant with the ISO 7816 - 2 standard.
The GPR400 is based on a microcontroller. It communicates with the
PCMCIA bus using a specific component (ASIC) containing 2 Kbytes of
RAM.
The flash memory (128 Kbytes) is mapped onto the embedded
microcontroller. Please note this memory is optional in this release.
The GPR400 has an 8-bit data I/O structure.
The GPR400's power supply is provided by the PCMCIA interface
(Vcc=5V).
