Short Product Information 6/6 09.00
The random number generator (RNG) is able to supply the CPU with true random
Numbers under all conditions. The CRC module allows the easy generation of checksums
accordin g to ISO 3309 (16-Bit-CRC). To minimize the overall po wer consumption, the chip
card controller IC offers a sleep mode. As an important measure, the chip provides a new
and enhanced level of on-chip security features.
In conclusion, the SLE 66C160S fulfills the requirements of all chip card applications, in
particular the GSM and Access Control. The SLE 66C160S is a powerful chip card
controller IC integrating outstanding security features on a minimized die size.
