This is the smartcard (telecard) reader for my next project, which is a PIC-based USB lock with smartcard. This smartcard reader can read and store 4 different smartcards and use them as keys. If the correct smartcard is inserted into the slot, then the PIC will transmit a serial signal to a USB on/off switch to activate the data lines of the 4 USB ports, and it will also arm a rely to provide +5V for the ports.
For smartcards, i use old and used telephone cards from my country. Almost any phone card from any country can be used.
