GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The ST16-19HDSE development environment is
composed of the ST16/19-HDSE and a software
package.

HARDWARE PACKAGE

The ST16/19-HDSE is a complete hardware de­velopment system including: an emulator for MCU
based smartcard ICs, powerful debugging func­tions and two high speed card readers, all in a sin­gle box.

The Figure 1 represents the ST16/19-HDSE and
its environment.

The parallel port driver provided allows to sepa­rately activate the different parts of the ST16/19­HDSE to beactivated separately by a PC compat­ible host computer through a single parallel port.
Many drivers have been written to be able to use
custom reader software or automatic test tools.

SOFTWARE PACKAGE

The software package delivered with the ST16/19­HDSE is composed of:

■ ST16 or ST19 macro assemblers

■ Linker

■ Library

■ Source level debugger (C or assembler)

■ Product configuration maker

■ Environment configuration maker

■ High level language test environment

■ Simulator

■ Cryptographic library evaluation

■ Cryptographic calculator

All software is Windows compatible.
The third-party compiler allows development in C

language. Source level debugging is supported ei­ther by STMicroelectronics or by third-party de­buggers.

This combination of enhanced hardware and flex­ible software allows any ROM code to be devel­oped and tested easily in an adapted environ­ment. Numerous and various situations can be
achieved as: personalization in issuer mode under
control of a master card, communications be­tween an electronic purse and a banking card, au­thentication of a synchronous telephone card by a
security module, etc.

Direct interface to the system can be performed
through DLLs, thus ST16/19-HDSE can be inte­grated in a custom test environment. Furthermore,
a complete test environment, which can be pro­grammed in C or other high level languages, is
also provided.

DEBUGGING TOOLS

Hardware andsoftware breakpoints allow the user
to stop the CPU whenever the application ROM
code execution reaches selected addresses, ad­dresses within a selected range, or on data fetch
cycles. The user is then able to read and modify
any registeror memory location within the simulat­ed memory or place other breakpoints or triggers.

Using the powerful triggering conditions of the log­ic analyser, it is possible to record only cycles
which are of interest to the user. Events can be
defined as logic combinations of 36 bit wide pat­terns occurring up to 64,000 times.

The acquisition mode can be defined by a se­quence of a combination of triggers.

Such a powerful tool enables the user to detect
and trap any pattern and thus quickly debug the
application.

CARD READER

A card reader can be connected to the host com­puter through a serial link. The ST16/19-HDSE
also includes two high speed card readers. This
enables the development loop to be closed, and
complete applications to be emulated on a single
host computer.

FRONT PANEL

The ST16/19-HDSE front panel displays the sta­tus of the chip external ISO 7816-3 compatible
signals (VCC, RST, CLK, I/O). It alsoindicates the
state of built_in readers A and B.
