This is a summary Document. A complete document is available on the Gemplus Web site.

The connection with the host processor is achieved via a serial asynchronous link the rate can be selected from a range from 1200 to 115,200 bps.

The software inside the GemCore chip handles a communication protocol with the host system called the Gemplus Block Protocol GBP .

A complete set of documentation is available on the Gemplus web site:

A GBP Interface Library Kit can be provided, upon request. It consists of the source code of the GBP communication layer between the host and GemCore. It is written in the C language. See the Gemplus developers’ site at Enquiries can also be posted to
