    @MAXX PRIME EFERENCE ANUAL @MAXX schematics: 3.5.1. Contact Smart Card Reader The contact smart card reader is an 8-pin, ISO7816 compliant contact smart card reader for ID- 000 smartcards. Its contacts C4 and C8 are connected with the internal RF antenna. Thus it is possible to use beside normal smartcards (microprocessor and memory cards) also dual interface smartcards with additional contacts on C4 / C8.
  • Page 13 @MAXX PRIME EFERENCE ANUAL Contact Designation Power connection through which operating power is supplied to the microprocessor chip in the card Reset line through which the IFD can signal to the smart card's microprocessor chip to initiate its reset sequence of instructions Clock signal line through which a clock signal can be provided to the microprocessor chip.

  • Page 14: Internal Rf Antenna

    @MAXX PRIME EFERENCE ANUAL 3.5.2. Internal RF antenna The internal RF antenna is connected with the pins C4 / C8 of the smartcard reader for the usage of dual interface cards. When a dual interface card is inserted in the @MAXX and the @MAXX is put in the magnetic field of any contactless reader, the internal RF antenna couples with the reader and an induction current appears in the antenna thus providing power to the integrated circuit.

  • Page 15: Micro Sd-Card Reader

    @MAXX PRIME EFERENCE ANUAL 3.5.3. Micro SD-Card Reader The micro SD-card reader is connected with internal USB-hub over the micro SC-card controller. Micro SD-cards with up to 8GB storage are supported by the controller. MicroSD complies to SecureDigital™(SD) card Rev. 2.0 and HC-SD (SDHC) specifications. Beside the embedded flash memory the SD-Card reader enables the user to enlarge the storage of the device and is listed as a USB Mass Storage Device.
