8010R

The 73S8010R is a single smart card interface IC, compliant to the electrical requirements of ISO-7816-3 and EMV 4.0 electrical specifications. It implements an I²C bus control, making it particularly suitable for applications that require several card interfaces. This is applicable to multiple SIM/SAM (Secure Access Module) configurations in Point-of-Sale and payment terminals. The I2C host interface is advantageous requiring fewer controller interface signals. The 73S8010R can also be used in conjunction with any host microcontroller that can support the smart card protocol layer. The 73S8010R implements a low-drop-out VCC regulator for smart card power supply generation.
