Smart card chip design implementation on ARM processor-based FPGA

This paper describes about the design and implementation of My-MS smart card chip´s prototype in Xilinx´s Zynq-7000 XC7020-1-CLG484 FPGA device. The comparison between the design implementation in this device and in Xilinx´s Virtex 4 XC4VLX60-10FF668 is explained in this paper in terms of area and time requirements. The paper explains also some of the basic functions of the smart card embedded operating system (OS), its simulation and implementation. The smart card chip design has been used as a national ID and health insurance card and is going to be incorporated in other applications cards.
