ACR38 Smart Card Reader Software Development Kit
Due to the rising demand of e-working methods (remote office, home office...) and the increasing risk of
unauthorized access to private network, it is time to properly secure access to PCs, desktops, and the
Intranet and Extranet networks. ACR38 offers solutions based on smart card readers (connected to PCs) for access control.
The ACR38 smart card reader/writer is a USB full speed device which is the interface for the communication between a
computer and a smart card. It is designed for PC environment, ultimate smart card peripheral for a PC.
ACR38 is a key partner of PC as smart card is becoming an essential component in network security and electronic payment system.
Providing secured network computing environment by its data encryption function, the SDK package allows users to easily develop
their own application to best meet the specific system needs.
ACR38 is a low cost, yet reliable and effective smart card to PC interface with design focusing on convenient use and harmony
with other PC peripherals in shape and color. It also provides the solution where the security of a smart card is required. It can be
used as access control to a computer or network (intranet, extranet, ...), authentication for e- commerce (B to B, B to C), ...
It is also very simple to use and install. It is ideal for electronic commerce, home banking or e-purse facilities, secure computer
access or any of a multitude of other applications.
With the smart card reference materials, demo programs, utility tools and sample codes all included in the SDK, you can explore
the many possibilities ACR38 and smart card can bring forth to your world.
The development kit is now priced at only US$99.

Demo programs to showcase ACR38 features and capabilities
Several demo programs are included to illustrate the versatility of the ACR38 smart card reader, e.g. e-purse, logical access control, etc.
Utility Tools - PCSC CardTool and PCSC Learning Tool, QuickView & Script Commander PCSC
Besides CardTool to test the protocol transfer between the reader and the PC, PCSC Learning Tool enhances your knowledge in
showing you how to use the PCSC API's step-by-step and what parameter to use. QuickView is a useful program to check for proper driver installation;
whereas the Script Commander PCSC is a software that allows you to send a predefined sequence of smart card commands to your CPU card.
Sample code written in various programming languages
- Used to demonstrate basic commands used to communicate with the card and reader
- Visual Basic, Visual C++, Borland Delphi , VB.NET, C#
