Eliminates the Need for Developers to Understand Cryptographic Processes and Algorithms
 Atmel® Corporation (NASDAQ:ATML), announced today the release of the AT88SC-DK1 development kit for its CryptoMemory®, an advanced cryptographic family of memory products.
Current CryptoMemory development requires developers to understand details of the cryptography and associated cryptographic algorithms of the CryptoMemory device in order to perform mutual authentication, data encryption, and generation of encrypted Message Authentication Codes (MAC) for secure communication with the device. AT88SC-DK1 simplifies the application development process by providing a library that completely implements host cryptographic operations required for secure communication with CryptoMemory devices.
The AT88SC-DK1 provides evaluation and demonstration capabilities when used in conjunction with Atmel's STK500, an AVR® processor embedded development environment. This development kit serves Atmel's AT88SCxxxxC family of cryptographic memories, covering EEPROM densities from 1 Kbit to 256 Kbits.
The kit includes a daughter board, to adapt CryptoMemory to any existing embedded development environment with a two-wire interface, and a development library containing a low function count API. The development library is delivered as a highly-decoupled binary cryptographic core and a source code interface for easy integration.
Availability and Pricing
The AT88SC-DK1 development kit is available now by emailing
CM-RFID.Atmel@cso.atmel.com and is priced at US $49 each.
