Hardware Overview
How does it work?
Smart Card 2 Click is based on the SEC1210, a high-performance single-chip Smart Card controller with a UART interface from Microchip. The SEC1210 is controlled by an enhanced integrated 8051 CPU, with all chip peripherals accessed and managed through the SFR or XDATA register space. Besides, it is fully compliant with the prevailing Smart Card standards (ISO7816, EMV, and PC/SC), keeps up with all requirements for communication bit rate, and includes support for proposed bit rates up to 826Kbps. The SEC1210 power unit is regulated and switched internally, supporting all 5V, 3V, and 1.8V Smart Cards (classes A, B, and C, respectively). The SEC1210 utilizes TrustSpan™ technology, enabling digital systems to communicate securely, process,
move, and store information. A populated onboard card holder supports data processing with 2FF smart cards. An additional connector for external connection also allows the processing of a standard 1FF card, making it ideal for electronic processes such as personal identification, access control (physical and logical access), authentication, and many more. This Click board™ communicates with MCU using the UART interface with commonly used UART RX/TX and operates at 115200 bps by default configuration to transmit and exchange data with the host MCU. The sequence activation/deactivation process itself is possible through software. Still, hardware deactivation is also supported when a card is
pulled out, whereby the required sequence is ensured regardless of software participation. In addition, Smart Card 2 Click also possesses a general Reset feature routed to the RST pin on the mikroBUS™ socket, which puts the module into a Reset state, while a yellow LED indicator labeled SRC represents a Smart Card status indicator. The blinking of this LED indicates that the Smart Card data processing is in progress. This Click board™ can operate with 3.3V and 5V MCUs, while SEC1210 uses only 5V from mikroBUS™ power rail as its primary power supply. However, the Click board™ comes equipped with a library containing functions and example code that can be used as a reference for further development.
Features overview
Development board
PIC32MZ Clicker is a compact starter development board that brings the flexibility of add-on Click boards™ to your favorite microcontroller, making it a perfect starter kit for implementing your ideas. It comes with an onboard 32-bit PIC32MZ microcontroller with FPU from Microchip, a USB connector, LED indicators, buttons, a mikroProg connector, and a header for interfacing with external electronics. Thanks to its compact design with clear and easy-recognizable silkscreen markings, it provides a fluid and immersive working experience, allowing access anywhere and under
any circumstances. Each part of the PIC32MZ Clicker development kit contains the components necessary for the most efficient operation of the same board. In addition to the possibility of choosing the PIC32MZ Clicker programming method, using USB HID mikroBootloader, or through an external mikroProg connector for PIC, dsPIC, or PIC32 programmer, the Clicker board also includes a clean and regulated power supply module for the development kit. The USB Micro-B connection can provide up to 500mA of current, which is more than enough to operate all onboard
and additional modules. All communication methods that mikroBUS™ itself supports are on this board, including the well-established mikroBUS™ socket, reset button, and several buttons and LED indicators. PIC32MZ Clicker is an integral part of the Mikroe ecosystem, allowing you to create a new application in minutes. Natively supported by Mikroe software tools, it covers many aspects of prototyping thanks to a considerable number of different Click boards™ (over a thousand boards), the number of which is growing every day.

Application Output via Debug Mode
1. Once the code example is loaded, pressing the "DEBUG" button initiates the build process, programs it on the created setup, and enters Debug mode.
2. After the programming is completed, a header with buttons for various actions within the IDE becomes visible. Clicking the green "PLAY" button starts reading the results achieved with the Click board™. The achieved results are displayed in the Application Output tab.
Software Support
Library Description
This library contains API for Smart Card 2 Click driver.
Key functions:
smartcard2_send_ccid
- This function sends the CCID command message by using UART serial interfacesmartcard2_read_ccid
- This function reads a CCID response or event message by using UART serial interfacesmartcard2_icc_power_on
- This function activates the card by performing an ICC power ON command. The device will respond with a data block containing ICC ATR (Answer to Reset) message
Open Source

This example can be found in NECTO Studio. Feel free to download the code, or you can copy the code below.

* @brief Smart Card 2 Click Example.
*
* # Description
* This example demonstrates the use of Smart Card 2 click board by checking
* the SIM card presence and activating the card on insert. The card should respond
* with an ATR (Answer to Reset) message.
*
* The demo application is composed of two sections :
*
* ## Application Init
* Initializes the driver and enables the device.
*
* ## Application Task
* Reads and parses all CCID messages received from the device. Checks the SIM card presence
* and activates it if it's inserted. The card should respond with an ATR (Answer to Reset) message.
* All data is being logged on the USB UART where you can track their changes.
*
* @note
* This example doesn't parse ATR messages.
* There are some online ATR parsers which could be used for decoding those messages.
* For example: https://smartcard-atr.apdu.fr/
