Overview

The TRUSTMV3SHIELDTOBO1 is an Arduino-compatible evaluation shield featuring the OPTIGA Trust M V3 security controller. It provides a turnkey hardware-based security solution for IoT devices, offering Common Criteria EAL 6+ certified protection for cryptographic keys and sensitive data. The shield simplifies the integration of high-end security features like mutual authentication, secured communication, and firmware updates.

Why Choose This Part

The shield features PSA Level 3 certification and hardware-based protection that significantly exceeds software-only security implementations. It supports a wide operating voltage range from 1.62V to 5.5V and includes a hibernate mode for near-zero power consumption, making it ideal for battery-powered designs. Integration is streamlined via a standard I2C interface and 10KB of onboard EEPROM for secure storage.

Applications

Cloud Onboarding
Securely provisioning and connecting IoT edge devices to platforms like AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud using pre-programmed identities.
Industrial Automation
Protecting PLC and sensor data integrity in industrial environments while ensuring only authorized devices can access the network.
Secure Firmware Updates
Verifying the authenticity and integrity of firmware images before installation to prevent malicious code execution.
Device Identity
Providing a unique, tamper-resistant cryptographic identity for medical devices or consumer electronics to prevent counterfeiting.

Getting Started

Plug the shield directly into an Arduino Uno or compatible baseboard to begin development using the I2C interface. Infineon provides comprehensive GitHub libraries and host-side integration code for the OPTIGA Trust M family. For production deployment, the underlying SLS 32AIA010MLUSON10XTMA9 silicon is available in a compact 3mm x 3mm USON-10 package.
