ACS ACR100 SIMFlash (CCID) - Manual (Page 9)

7.0. Communication Protocol
ACR100F interfaces with the host via USB connection. It is a compounded device consisting of two
interfaces: Chip Card Interface Device and Mass Storage.
The ACR100F Smart Card Interface shares the same core as the smart card interface of the ACR38
CCID. The Smart Card Interface will be identified as “ACR38-112c” once the reader FW is obtained.
(The command for this will be discussed later on). CCID covers all the protocols required for operating
smart cards and PIN.
The configurations and usage of USB endpoints on ACR100F Smart Card Interface shall follow CCID
Section 3. An overview is summarized below:
1. Control Commands are sent on control pipe (default pipe). These include class-specific
requests and USB standard requests. Commands that are sent on the default pipe report
information back to the host on the default pipe.
2. CCID Events are sent on the interrupt pipe.
3. CCID Commands are sent on BULK-OUT endpoint. Each command sent to smart card
reader has an associated ending response. Some commands can also have intermediate
responses.
4. CCID Responses are sent on BULK-IN endpoint. All commands sent to the smart card reader
have to be sent synchronously. (i.e. bMaxCCIDBusySlots is equal to 1)
