3.6.1.  General 

@MAXX  prime  is  a  multifunctional  device,  designed  to  interface  a  personal  computer  host 
supporting  PC/SC  interface  or  CCID  interface  with  ISO7816  smartcards  in  ID-000  format. 
Further the device can be used as a passive NFC tag by using a dual interface smartcard. And 
the @MAXX can be used as USB Mass Storage device and Micro SD-card reader.  

 

 

The  following  graphic  shows  the  case  study  and  the  needed  infrastructure  if  the  @MAXX  is 
used as a passive NFC token. 

 

 

A similar use case is the door opener. In this case the host is not seen. The contactless reader 
is installed beside the door.
