scope:

The present document defines a generic Terminal/Integrated Circuit Card (ICC) interface for cdma2000 applications. The present document is based on [1], which defines a generic platform for any IC card application. Requirements that are common to all cdma2000 smart card based applications are also listed in this specification.

The aim of the present document is to ensure interoperability between an ICC and a terminal independently of the respective manufacturer, card issuer or operator. The present document does not define any aspects related to the administrative management phase of the ICC. Any internal technical realization of either the ICC or the terminal is only specified where these are reflected over the interface.

Application specific details for applications residing on an ICC are specified in the respective application specific documents.

References to this document from cdma2000 application specifications related to functionalities that are not described in the present document are to be considered as direct references to [1].
