chip card reading

Hi all,

is there anyone who has ever tried to read/write data to/from a
chipcard (the ones with the golden chip on top, I donot know the
correct english expression)? I think they use the I2C protocol, so
there should be a way to do it with the BS2P, that provides that
protocol.
Is there anyone who has tried something like this?

Thanx for your help,

Best regards, Uli

    Its called a "smartcard" I was thinking of trying it actualy,
    let me try and scrounge up the documents on protocol from work
    (dont think its I2C)
    and I will e-mail a copy to those interested. we would probably
    want to use a 'smart' serial reader to interface to the card.

    You may want to get the ISO document, its ISO 7816
    ISO 7816-1 and ISO 7816-2 is all mechanical(dimesions and such)
    stuff, all the info you are looking for is in ISO 7816-3

    looks like 3 wire serial....

    I/O : serial data I/O
    VPP : Programing voltage
    GND : Ground
    CLK : Clock
    RST : Reset
    VCC : Power supply input

    You should check out the website of the company which supplies STAMPS
    controllers for FIRST Robotics.
    Innovation FIRST at: www.innovationfirst.com
    They integrate Parallax STAMPS with their own I/O package and have been doing so
    for 10 years.
    Their instructions for the method and procedure for getting the programs
    downloaded to the STAMPS chip have saved me several times when the
    editor/downloader just wouldn't work for me.
