Chapter 1. Overview
This chapter provides an introduction to ROCKEY501 dual-interface reader and its features.
1.1 Introduction
The ROCKEY501 dual-interface reader is a driverless USB HID reader used for smart card applications. The reader
provides 1 contact smart card slot (ISO7816-sized) and 3 SAM card slots (SIM card-sized). It supports the T0 and T1
cards compliant with ISO7816 protocol, the contactless card compliant with ISO-14443 TYPEA/TYPEB protocol, and the
S50 and S70 contactless card compliant with Mifare1 standard. Thus, it can access the dual-interface smart card, the
contactless smart (RF) card, and the contact smart card.
Re-development interface libraries are available for the development of applications. The reader can be connected to a
PC or terminal by a USB port. Because it is an HID product, the installation of driver is unnecessary.
