MP300 SC1 (spy)

A cutting edge ISO/IEC 7816-3, SWP, USB-IC and USB 2.0 protocol analyser

  • Ideal CLF tester

  • Protocol analysis and spy of ISO/IEC 7816, SWP, USB-IC and USB 2.0 protocols

  • Electrical measurement features

  • Evolutivity into an ISO/IEC 7816 and SWP smartcard simulator


The main features of the MP300 SC1 are :

  • Protocol analysis of exchanges happening following the ISO/IEC 7816-3 and -4, SWP/S-HDLC/HCI, USB-IC and USB 2.0 protocols
  • Compatible with ETSI TS 102 613 and TS 102 622 specifications
  • Automatic detection of baudrate changes
  • Detailed graphical representation of the spied exchanges
  • Non intrusive data acquisition probe
  • All protocols can be spied simultaneously
  • Possibility to perform physical measurement (current and voltage oscilloscope-like display)
  • Evolutivity into a smartcard emulator (ISO/IEC 7816-3 and –4 and SWP)
  • Numerous possibilities of protocolary testing (response times, wrong CRC, parity errors)
  • Physical customisation of the emulated smartcard
  • Wide range of probes available, to cover all types of handsets, as well as traditional ID1 smartcards
  • Backwards compatibility with the Star 3150
  • Open platform : integrate the MP300 SC1 inside your own test platform
  • Supplied with the MPManager software suite, enabling the complete control of the tester without any programming knownedge
  • Possibility to synchronise this tool with a MP300 TCL2 or SCL1, for the analysis of a complete NFC or dual interface transaction

 

This tester will typically be used in the following contexts :

  • Protocolary analysis of a handset or a banking terminal
  • On-site debugging sessions
  • Characterisation of a CLF, or of a smartcard reader
  • Characterisation of the protocol handling of a smartcard, or a U-SIM

User interface

MPManager

The MP300 SC1 is supplied with the MPManager software, whose aim, is to open all of the tester’s functionalities, accessible just with mouse clicks.

First, the user just needs to select the information he is interested in. The choice is available contact per contact.

 
In this example, the pin C6 (SWP). It is possible to select the level of display (character,logical, physical)


 

Starting the spy is just as simple as clicking a button. At the end of the session, the viewer is available.

Different levels of analysis are available.

 
HCI analysis level is also available


 

The MP300 SC1 also allows you to perform physical measurement when trapping an exchange

Micropross supplies a complete range of accessories for the MP300 SC1, that include :

  • A SIM to ISO converter
  • Numerous shapes of probes, to use this tester with different types of contact smartcard readers and handsets
  • A probe to enable spying sessions between a smartcard and an external reader
  • A probe for oscilloscope connection
  • The option to turn the MP300 SC1 into a contact smartcard simulator

We also supply packages to extend the warranty of the tester. Please ask us for the maintenance contracts available.
