Welcome to the Smartcard Lib for Arduino compatible boards wiki.
Currently this is a project I'm working on to learn more about the Ardunio programming and interfacing to external hardware.
As it might be quite hard to setup a complete smart card reader for the Arduino from scratch, I just looked around and found a old settop box, which had a seperate module to interface with the smart card.
All the documentation and data sheets I read, had a lot to say about high frequency and other effects, you can face if you use chips like the TDA 8204T to interface with a smart card.
This library can be used to talk to a directly to the Arduino board connected smartcard or a smartcard connected via a TDA 8204T (or compatible).
Per default the library behaves, like the smartcard is directly connected to the Ardunio board, as this is the default for the most people (The connection is described in the schematic attached to a post below).
I that you actually don't need a TDA 8204T or any other chip to talk to a smart card, as you can connect the smart card directly to the I/O pins of the Arduino board, but with the interface chip it's just safer for my Arduino board and my smart cards.
Setup
As per release 0.0.4, the default behaviour is changed to a directly connected smartcard and the TDA 8204T interface needs to be activated via a define in the code.
See the attached schematic, how the signals need to be connected to the Arduino board.

C5(GND)

C6(Vpp)
N.C
C7(I/O)
D10
C8(AUX2)
N.C.
SWITCH
D8
Currently the C3(CLK) - D9 connection is hard coded, as I didn't found a way to get the timer associated with a pin and access the registers. The D9 pin is used to generate a clock signal for the smart card.
To have defined values for the C3(RST) and C7(I/O) signales I used 100k pull-up resistors and a 100k pull-down resistor for the switch signaling that the smardcard is inserted into the smartcard slot
If USE_DEBUG_PIN is enabled, which is by default, the D13 is used to signal changes in the internal state machines. Used to trigger my logic state analyser.
It is also possible to minimize the binary size, by enable synchronous or asynchronous communication in the header file.
The easiest way to get to this information would be the article about smart cards in wikipedia. In the english version is a pin out given and with the provided table it should be possible to connect it directly to the arduino board (See attached )

* With the new release 0.0.4 this works right out of the box, as direct connection is the default.
Hi Angus, I'm really very interested in this project!! Thanks
I have a doubt. My SC Connection switch is always closed and opens when the card is inserted, thereby if I connect the switch in a pull-down, it thinks that there are no-card-inserted when there actually is. I modified my connection to pull-up resistor by connecting as follow:
* SWITCH 1 to GND
* SWITCH 2 to (between D8 and 1K resistor that goes to 5V).
Now it tries to read the card every-time I insert a card. However, each time I have inserted a card the following pattern happens:
* Waiting for Smartcard
* Smartcard found
* Unable to identify card ... Please remove
Not really sure what I'm doing wrong!

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
I think you should try a revision >= 20 from the trunk SCLib.h & SCLib.cpp as I added a feature to invert the card recognition (Parameter off_invert of the constructer set to true) after I've purchased a smartcard slot with the same switch behaviour as yours. That should do the trick, if go back to the pull down configuration.
If you have further question just send me a mail.

Hi Angus,
I don't know your email, so I'll continue with this thread.
After I downloaded both files, I tried both ways with the pull-down (left on the attached image), It continuously said "waiting for Smartcard" (not recognizing it), and with pull-up (right on the attached image).
It appears that the original circuit (on the left) can't work with my socket, not even with the new libraries, however, I kind of had a better result with the other schem:
I started with the SCTest. -> The card was now found and the serial monitor showed:
//Inserted CARD #1
Smartcard found
00|07 8E 07 8D '................'
Waiting for Smartcard
//After a couple of seconds repeats the same
Smartcard found
00|07 8E 07 8D '................'
Waiting for Smartcard
Smartcard found
00|07 8E 07 8D '................'
Waiting for Smartcard
// Here I changed the cards (2nd)
Smartcard found
00|92 23 10 91 '.#..............'
Waiting for Smartcard
// Here I changed the cards (3rd)
Smartcard found
00|07 8E 07 8D '................'
Waiting for Smartcard
The good news is that three different smartcards were apparently recognized with 4-bytes each. But it kind of crashes after the 4th byte. I have to take the card out and re-enter it.
When testing on the SCTest2 the thing is different. Once I entered the SC in the socket it read the card once and printed into serial monitor:
Smartcard found
Received ATR ...
00|0C 02 0C 01 '................'
SELECT FILE Command ...
Received ... 0
Waiting for Smartcard
This happened VERY fast I tested this several times and after the "Waiting for Smartcard" print, I couldn't change the smartcard and have new readings without reseting the Arduino.
I'm not sure but in both cases it seems like only the first 4 bytes are transmitted, then the program continues the loop without delays or without prompting anything... Is this right?
If the ATR's you receive are correct, they lead to the point that you are using synchronus cards, as they normaly only have a 4 byte ATR. .. Like SL4432/SL4442 or other memory cards, which can be found often as keycards in hotels, member cards etc.
Do you have additional information regarding the type of the card? I think, if the cards you used are synchrous, everything worked fine and now the protocol implementation has to be done to support the card type you want to use.
I'm currently implementin a SL4432/SL4442 support class, which provides all the features of this card type for easy usage.
So to have your problems fixed I think i have to ask some questions ;-.)
What kind of Arduino are you using?
There might be a problem, when using a Arduino Mega compatible board as the CLK Pin has to be moved from Digital 9 to Digital 11 and the function of the Digital 11 (Vcc) can be moved to every other digital pin avaialable (The CLK pin is tied to the TIMER1A and the output pin of the timer was moved).
Do you have more information regarding the type and protocol of the cards you want to use?
The SCTest2 is only working with asynchrous cards of protocol type T=0, that's the reason, why you might get the "Received .. 0" as the APDU command format is not supported by all the synchronous cards I know :-(
I will have a look into the problem of the need to reset the Arduino this condition, that should not happen and I will rename/comment the examples a little bit better to have them more intuitive.
Can you please send me the answers via the "Send me a message" form on my users page or open a discussion in the genral discusion form, as I don't think tha communication through the wiki is a good idea ;-.)
regards,
Angus

The only "processor" specific feature the code uses of an ATmega processor is the Timer feature, to create the clock for the smart card communication and that is more or less the only feature that limits the usage of this lib to the ATmega compatible boards, if the clock generation is exchanged with a mechanism available on a different platfrom, it should be portable to nearly any other platform ... (As long as the supporting features of the Arduino development environment are available or replaced with suiteble libs.)
So if I unsderstood your question correctly, the anser is the ATMega processor is needed, due to the Timer feature. The Arduino UNO board might work, but there isn't much memory / flash left for your own code.

First I want to thank for his work on this lib Arduino, was very good to make the smart card reading. I wonder if you can make a sniffer smartcard with this lib if possivem is how you make an example.

In principle this will work, but the lib won't be much of a help, as it was designed to provide a "Smart Card Reader" interface to the Arduino ..
The effort needed might depend on your approach, to actually sniff the communication won't be hard and might be done with the low level "bit-reading" functions, but still a lot of modification will be needed to "convert" the SCLib into a "protocol decoder".
An easier way might be to use a logic analyzer, as most of them have protocol decoders available .. I use a Open Logic Sniffer from dangerous prototypes (inexpensive compared to other devices, but limited in the sample time).
A more interesting approach might be a "man-in-the-middle" setup, one side connected to the SmartCard the other side connected to the "original" Smart Card Reader, this would give you more options for debugging and testing, but this might be hard to be done with a classic "Arduino" based board ... A fair amount of multitasking is needed for this and this might be accomplished with a more "capable" hardware / OS ... The PRU of the "BeagleBoneBlack" might be a good starting point or any other Embedded board (Raspberry etc.)

I was poking around Futurlec and came across some smart cards, and of course wished to utilize them with Arduino. Did a quick search, and came across your wonderful little library here.
However, I noted that neither of the cards on Futurlec (link: http://www.futurlec.com/Smart_Cards.shtml ) are listed in the supported cards list. I am curious if either of them would work, or if they could be made to work. I doubt the AT24C64 would work, given that it looks like it's a completely different thing, but I was hoping the SLE4428 could be made to work.
Alternately, where would be a place that I could acquire a compatible card for a decent price?
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Sorry for the late answer, but I was busy in the last weeks to to my "normal" job .. :-)
It should not be a problem to make the SLE4428 work, as there is already a support class for the SLE44x2 cards. It had a "really" quick look on the data sheet for the SLE44x8 and they look quite similar, but some changes might be needed ... So it will not work right out of the box :-( but it is definitely possible.
With the AT24C64 you are right, they might be "plugged" into the sclib, but this would be more of rewrite, maybe something for the future :-). These cards are accessed via a TWI (I2C) and it should be quite simple to access them via the appropriate Ardunio libraries.
If you still are looking for compatible cards I would recommend SLE4442 (or compatible cards), they should be in the same price section, as the ones you found from Futurlec, but still they need to fit your project / security requirements (But they should work right out of the box).

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
So just let me summarize what I understood from your post.
You have a TDA8024T from an old settop box, which has a "SmartCard" Slot on one side and an interface to the TDA8024T on the "other side", the place where you want to connect the "Arduino" to.
The names you gave "5VDA", "SCOCLK" etc are the names of the pins given by the "old" SetTop Box SmartCard Slot and these pins are connected to the pins of the TDA8024.
Based on the data sheet and the examples available I would recommend to connect the TDA8024T in the following way.
PIN
Arduino PIN
5VDA
5V
SCOCLK
D9
GND
GND
SCODET
D8
SCORST
D7
SCOVCCEN
D11
SCOIN
D10
SCOC8
n.c.
SCOOUT
n.c,
5V/3V_SEL
5V or GND
It's stange that SCORST is "NC", this is a quite important signal, as all communication starts with it. This should normally be connected to PIN20 of the TDA8024T. See also data sheet of TDA8024T.
For the other signals it might be helpful to have a look into the data sheet, as in my case they have not been available to the outside and have been set to the approritate values. The SCOC8 and SCOOUT are only required, if your smartcard supports C4 and C8 pads, but currently they are not supported by the smart card lib.
The 5V/3V_SEL depends on your smart card as this selects the voltage used for the smartcard communication (not the voltage used to communicate with the Arduino).
Also important is to "uncomment" the line 63 in SCLib.h, otherwise the TDA8024 "inverted" Vcc handling is not activated.
#define USE_TDA8204
Let me know if this helps

Hi Angus,
So you summarize is correct, it is just like u described, I was tired and misplaced things. In shor it works but only when card is inserted and 5V/3V_SEL is manualy connected from GND to 5V.
Here i describe it in better way
Card not inserted
Waiting for Smartcard
If I insert card it say
Smartcard found
Unable to identify card ... Please remove
But if card is inserted and(arduino start) and I disconect 5V/3V_SEL from GND and connect to 5V it say
Waiting for Smartcard
Smartcard found
00|05 E2 05 E1 '................'
I doubly checked SCORST it is not connected to anything nither pin 20 of TDA8024T
If diagram of my cardreader could help I could make one
So should I place wire from pin 20 to SCORST. I guess that settop box readed card just like I now then did not used SCORST they just "power" it when they needed or just on start up :) If you have any sugestion that would be great

Also important is to "uncomment" the line 63 in SCLib.h, otherwise the TDA8024 "inverted" Vcc handling is not activated.
Let me know if this helps

Hi Angus,
So you summarize is correct, it is just like u described, I was tired and misplaced things. In shor it works but only when card is inserted and 5V/3V_SEL is manualy connected from GND to 5V.
Here i describe it in better way
Card not inserted
If I insert card it say
But if card is inserted and(arduino start) and I disconect 5V/3V_SEL from GND and connect to 5V it say
I doubly checked SCORST it is not connected to anything nither pin 20 of TDA8024T
If diagram of my cardreader could help I could make one
So should I place wire from pin 20 to SCORST. I guess that settop box readed card just like I now then did not used SCORST they just "power" it when they needed or just on start up :) If you have any sugestion that would be great

Hi. I use your library. Prompt at me the card works only with StopBit = 2. How to fix your library under StopBit = 2? Thanks.
Great work! Thanks

Hi,
It's a little bit hard to help you, without any additional infomation.
With kind regards
Please check attached files.
I am using same library files, which given on above download button. I tried some changes as per datasheet, but no success! :(
I need atlest 1KByte storage, i.e. need SLE4428 Card!!!
