The New AT98SC Family The AT98SC is a new microcontroller family based on the technology implemented on the AT90SC and AT91SC series. Its embedded firmware provides a turnkey solution for the applications explained above and many more! The AT98SC family provides a generic solution to the security threats stated in this paper.
The AT98SC family is an alternative to Trusted Platform Modules (TPM) for the embedded market (refer to [ATM-TPM]). AT98SC family members offer more-flexible interfaces than TPMs with a lower pin count. The key management can also be freely customized and is not as stringent as on TPMs
