If you are not very familiar with development on micro-controllers (i.e. use of emulators or even oscilloscopes to validate you I/O routines), it is going to be very difficult. As a former SC OS developer, I can tell you that writing code for a micro-controller is really a different experience from working on a PC: the memory constraints in terms of code size and RAM have a direct influence on your coding style! On the other hand, writing JavaCard applets is much easier. > I any one off you out there can tell me > where to find tools e.g. compilers, assemblers for this AVR Smartcard I > would be great full. You would have to get them from the manufacturer of the card chip you choose.
