Atmel adds new member to its AT91SC Advanced Telecoms product family by introducing the AT91SC464384RCU secure microcontroller (MCU). The new microcontroller, based on ARM SC100, features 464K Bytes of ROM (program memory), 18KB of RAM and 384KB EEPROM. The AT91SC464384RCU secure microcontroller implements ISO7816 and SWP (Single Wire Protocol) communication interfaces. The new secure microcontroller targets mobile TV and mobile payment markets.
About AT91SC Advanced Telecoms products
The AT91SC is a low power, high-performance 32-bit RISC microcontroller with ROM program memory, advanced EEPROM data memory and cryptographic accelerator. This product family target applications requiring high computing power, very large memories and high-speed protocols. The AT91SC series is designed to meet the Common Criteria EAL4+ certification.
In addition to ISO 7816, several communication interfaces are available such as USB 2.0, USB_IC, SWP (NFC choice for Telecom). External flash memory (NAND, NOR) may be connected with the full control of the secure microcontroller. Memory capacities are sized to support new software technologies (JavaCard 3.x, TCP/IP).

Secure Smart Card is the heart of the convergence of the internet, wireless, contactless and TV broadcasting systems. Through the adoption of new technologies such as NFC, TCP/IP and Smartcard Web Server, the smart card’s responsibility is increasing and is becoming a key and individual security element within this complex environment. Atmel’s new AT91SC464384RCU features the ability to secure highly sensitive digital transactions. The new secure microcontroller targets Common Criteria EAL4+ certification, thereby assuring total security for mobile payment and mobile TV applications.
Laurent Sustek, Atmel, said:
.. the mobile telecoms, through the ETSI standardization body, selected SWP as its NFC solution. Atmel provides an SWP interface fully compliant with the ETSI specification which is expected by end of 2007. This high performance, low power device is designed as such to host Operating Systems integrating latest technologies…
