Description

DeepCover® embedded security solutions cloak sensitivedata under multiple layers of advanced physical securityto provide the most secure key storage possible.The DeepCover Secure Authenticator (MAX66240) is atransponder IC that combines an ISO/IEC 15693 and ISO18000-3 Mode 1-compatible RF front-end, a FIPS 180-based SHA-256 engine, and 4096 bits of user EEPROM in a single chip. A bidirectional security model enforcestwo-way authentication between a host system and theMAX66240. Each device has its own guaranteed unique64-bit ROM ID that is factory programmed into the chip.This ROM ID is used as a fundamental input parameterfor cryptographic operations and serves as an electronicserial number within the application.ApplicationsAccess ControlAsset TrackingMedical Sensor Authentication and CalibrationPrinter Cartridge Configuration and MonitoringSystem Intellectual Property Protection
