Description
The AT83C2 4 is a sm art c ard reade r inte rfac e IC for smart card reader/writer applica -
tions such as EFT/POS te rminals and set top boxes. It enab les the management of
any type of sma rt card from any kind of host. Up to 8 AT 83C24 can be conne cted in
parallel using the programmable TWI address.
Its high efficiency DC/DC converter, low quiescent current in standby mode makes it
particularly suited to low power and portable applications. The reduced bill of material
allows reducing significantly the system cost. A sophisticated protection system guar
-
antees timely and controlled shutdown upon error conditions.
The AT83C24NDS is a dedicated version approved by NDS for use with NDS Video-
Guard conditional access software in set-top boxes. All AT83C24 datasheet is
applicable to AT83C24NDS. The main differences between AT83C24 and
AT83C24NDS are listed below:
1/ CLASS A card supplied with CVCC = 4.75 to 5.25V for AT83C24NDS,
CLASS A card supplied with CVCC = 4.6 to 5.25V for AT83C24
2/ 18MHz minimum on input clock for AT 83C24NDS
3/ Up to 10µF for capacitor connected on CVCC pin for AT83C24,
3.3µF mandatory for AT83C24NDS
