Abstract
Contactless cards are smart cards with microprocessor cores. Their applications of are very popular, such as public transports, access control, cashless payment, campus solution and so on. Reader is an essential part for smart card applications. It can identify cards, read/write data on cards. Microcontrollers are common hardware for embedded applications. With microcontrollers, the readers of contactless cards will be smart and easy to be used. In this paper, smart cads, contactless cards, readers, microcontrollers and design of a reader with microcontrollers are discussed.
