PC/SC standard

Today we use the PC/SC standard as a base for our software developing.

The "PC/SC" abbreviature means: "Personal Computer / Smart Card".

This specification was created by the group of hardware- and software- manufacturers ("PC/SC Workgroup") with the purpose to standardize the work with smart cards.

PC/SC Workgroup:

  • Bull CP8, a Bull Company
  • Gemplus SA
  • Hewlett-Packard Company
  • IBM Corporation
  • Microsoft Corporation
  • Schlumberger SA
  • Siemens Nixdorf Informationssystemes AG
  • Sun Microsystems, Inc.
  • Toshiba Corporation
  • VeriFone,Inc.

The acceptance of the PC/SC standard has allowed to unify the card readers and software. Today there is no necessity to write the program for work with each reader type.

How does the PC/SC correspond to you?

If you are beginner at smart cards it is enough for you to know that:

  • the operation system of your PC must support the PC/SC; if you use MS Windows 2000 or XP (or later) - you already have the PC/SC system libraries on your computer;
  • you need a PC/SC compatible smart card reader;

You can find the PC/SC specifications at our library page .
