HTCSEMI HT8024ARWZ

The HT8024A is a complete and cost-efficient analog interface for asynchronous 3 or 5 V smart cards. It can be placed between the card and the microcontroller to perform all supply, protection and control functions. Very few external components are required.

• IC card interface
• 3 or 5 V supply for the IC (VDD and GND)
• Three specifically protected half-duplex bidirectional buffered I/O lines to card contacts C4, C7 and C8
• DC/DC converter for VCC generation separately powered from a 5 V ±20% supply (VDDP and PGND)
• 3 or 5 V ±5% regulated card supply voltage (VCC) with appropriate decoupling has the following capabilities:
  • ICC < 80 mA at VDDP = 4 to 6.5 V
  • Handles current spikes of 40 nAs up to 20 MHz
  • Controls rise and fall times
  • Filtered overload detection at approximately 120 mA
• Thermal and short-circuit protection on all card contacts
• Automatic activation and deactivation sequences; initiated by software or by hardware in the event of a short-circuit, card take-off, overheating, VDD or VDDP drop-out
• Enhanced ESD protection on card side (> 6 kV)
• 26 MHz integrated crystal oscillator
• Clock generation for cards up to 20 MHz (divided by 1, 2, 4 or 8 through CLKDIV1 and CLKDIV2 signals) with synchronous frequency changes
• Non-inverted control of RST via pin RSTIN
• ISO 7816, GSM11.11 and EMV (payment systems) compatibility
• Supply supervisor for spike-killing during power-on and power-off and Power-on reset (threshold fixed internally or externally by a resistor bridge); not for HT8024A
• Built-in debounce on card presence contacts
• One multiplexed status signal OFF.

• IC card readers for banking
• Electronic payment
• Identification
• Pay TV.
