Atmel's AT90SC256144RCFT Secure Microcontroller Qualified by FIME for ePassport Applications

Rousset, France (ots/PRNewswire)

Atmel(R) Corporation (Nasdaq: ATML) announced today that FIME, an
external and independent third party laboratory, has certified that
Atmel's AT90SC256144RCFT secure microcontroller is compliant with
ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization) and ISO14443
specifications (contactless interface for smart cards). The FIME
report is available from Atmel upon request.
Jean-Pierre Enguent, Atmel's Product Manager for contactless
products stated, "The FIME report shows that Atmel fulfills all
technical requirements for ePassport and ID applications. Moreover,
the AT90SC256144RCFT provides extended RF capabilities, excellent
computational performance and low power consumption allowing up to 40
MIPS at 1.5 A/m which is the low field strength limit in ISO14443
standard. The product targets applications such as Extended Access
Control within the ePassport program.
In addition, this secureAVR(R)-based microcontroller also targets
Common Criteria EAL5+ certification and a strong interoperability
performance has already been proven during international plug test
forums."
The product will be showcased at this year's Cartes tradeshow in
Paris (Atmel booth: 4 J 014), and is a candidate for Sesames 2007
Best in Hardware.
Availability and Pricing
AT90SC256144RCFT samples are available now. Pricing starts at US
$3.50 for 10k units.
