7903 - Feature                 M960 - Feature

Security is a key element in these types of devices. The 7903 is based on a processor designed with security applications in mind. This processor has the following attributes:

• 128K of on Chip Memory
• 4K of on Chip Key Storage
• Addressing capability of up to 16M of external memory
• Physical/logical separation of security and AP memory

The large external memory capability will allow storage to support multiple device resident applications, handling multiple card protocols concurrently. The device has intrusion detection, which when triggered makes the unit inoperative. A privacy shield is part of the packaging, reducing the risk of PIN compromise during user entry.

Included in the product is code to perform security functions in compliance with:

• ANSI X9.8 and IBM3624 PIN Block Processing
• ANSI X9.17 and X9.24 for Key Management (including UKPT and DUKPT)
• ANSI X9.19 for MACing
• Local PIN Offset Generation
• Local PIN Verification

Several models are available, to provide basic or more advanced card processing support.

• The 7903 Model 1 supports magnetic track 1 and 2 read operations in accordance to ISO 7811 Standard. Card read is supported on both insertion and removal to optimize read results. A multi-color indicator help to display device status. This base configuration includes 128K bytes of memory for user applications and a 2x16 character LCD display.
• The Model 2 is a hybrid device, combining the functions of magnetic and ICC card processing. This model offers program controlled card latching, desirable for smart card transactions, 512K bytes of memory for user applications and a standard 4x20 LCD display.
• The Model 3 extends the Model 2 to include Compliance to Mondex 3.0, with space for up to 3 SAM modules.

Other options available on either the model 2 or 3 include:

• An APA version of the LCD is available, to support graphics or complex languages.
• A range of user memory sizes, up to 2 Megabytes
• Utilities to support generation of custom device resident applications
• Read all 3 track of magnetic stripe

The Model 1 can be powered via the PC keyboard or mouse port, however the Models 2 and 3 require an external 9V power adapter.

PC software is available to support:

• Key Injection
• Download if new device resident applications
• PC application shells to support Mondex purse applications such as purse selection, balance inquiry transfer, lock/unlock, user authentication, print, etc.

Device drivers are provided to support Windows 95, 98 and Windows NT.

The physical dimensions are 270(L) x 106(W) x 150(H) mm and is approximately 850g or 1.87lbs.

M960 possess all the features of 7903 with additional motorized reader function.  The motorized card insertion function improves the card read performance.
