USB Bridge for UICC Secure Multimedia Card
SIM (Subscriber Identification Module) cards have served mobile telephones well since their inception.
Today there are billions of SIM cards in use all over the world. However, the evolution of mobile telephones
into portable multimedia platforms is pushing the limits of SIM cards, in terms of capacity, security and
data transfer rate.
To overcome these limits, a new architecture has been defined for mobile phone cards. Known as USB
UICC (Universal Integrated Circuit Card), this architecture has been standardized by ETSI (European Telecommunications Standards Institute). The UICC is not restricted to Web- and multimedia-enabled mobile
phones. It can also be used for DRM (Digital Rights Management), multimedia stream decryption (Pay TV)
and as a mass storage device.
The full-speed interface between the host (mobile phone, set-top box, PC, etc.) and the device (UICC) has
been defined as the IC_USB 1.0 (InterChip USB), a short-range variant of the USB 2.0 standard that has
also been normalized by ETS (USB 2.0 Section7).
Telecom service providers and users are pressing for a secure, high-capacity card that, in addition to storing
the subscriber identity and personal telephone directory, can act as a repository for a wide range of audio
and video files, web pages, access keys for pay TV services, etc. Today, the existing chipsets that drive
mobile phones do not support this interface. What is missing is a bridge to link existing mobile phone
chipsets to the UICC. Atmel’s AT73C260 provides this solution.

USB Bridge for UICC Secure Multimedia Card
The AT73C260 is a highly compact, low energy-consuming USB bridge that provides a
choice of host (upstream) interfaces that make it plug-compatible with the majority of
existing mobile phone chipsets, and a device (downstream) interface to a UICC. It carries
out the required voltage conversions, and provides sufficient power to drive the IC-USB signals.
