Design and Implementation of Smart Card Interface Device on Zynq-7000 System-on-Chip

Abstract

The latest technological developments that are so massive make the issue of authentication and security data more interesting. One way to overcome these things is by using a smart card. Furthermore, one of the essential elements of the smart card is smart card Interface Device (IFD). Technological developments that are developing rapidly make the smart card IFD function not only as a reader. Moreover, smart card IFD is required to be integrated with various features (e.g., connected to the internet, interface using LCD, can operate without PC, and so on). One of the solutions is to design the smart card IFD in the form of IP Core so it can be implemented into an SoC that has various advantages. This paper will discuss about hardware and software design from smart card IFD and then implement it on Zynq-7000 All-Programmable System-on-Chip (SoC). By implementing the design on SoC, it is possible to make smart card IFD faster and flexible for further research. The result of this research shows that smart card IFD based on SoC is successfully implemented on Zynq-7000 and has a good speed performance compared to other systems.
