What is Phoenix, Smartmouse?

There are today numerous software's on the internet that are used to communicate with different types of smartcards that follows ISO7816(T=0) standard such as WinExplorer.
Common for these programs are that they need a Phoenix- or a Smartmouse-interface to communicate with the smartcard.
The interface (really a very simple construction, it was originally created by hobbyists who wanted to communicate with smartcards) transform the signal to/from the serialport of the computer to levels that the smartcard can handle.
Then an oscillator is provided to the card so it can handle the commands sent to it.Normally a oscillator at 3.579575MHz are used because the ISO7816-standard originally uses a speed that is "oscillator" divided with 372 that gives approx. 9600 bps.
The difference between Phoenix and Smartmouse is the polarity on the reset-signal.
