DeepCover embedded security solutions cloak sensitive data under multiple layers of advanced physical security to provide the most secure key storage possible. The DeepCover Secure Microcontroller (MAXQ1740) integrates a triple-track magnetic stripe reader interface, an I²C interface, two SPI interfaces, and one universal synchronous/asynchronous receiver-transmitter (USART) interface. Security features include an AES encryption engine, a true hardware random-number generator, voltage-attack sensors, and a self-destruct input pin. A single-cycle 16-bit RISC MAXQ CPU powers the device. It provides a high level of security for the magnetic stripe reader by placing an ultra-secure microcontroller with high-speed hardware encryption inside the magnetic card reader head. The device provides 16KB of flash memory, 1KB of fast-wipe nonvolatile SRAM (NV SRAM), and 128 bytes of data NV SRAM that instantaneously zeroizes its contents when a tamper is detected. The 128 bytes can be used as data RAM or working RAM for the AES. The fast-wipe feature ensures that any data in the 1KB of memory is destroyed before any application software can access it. Factory programming of a unique 64-bit serial number, and/or customer secret key(s), is available upon request. The microcontroller runs within a wide 1.7V to 3.6V operating range. User-application firmware interfaces with the triple-track magnetic stripe interface. Reference software supports the reading of cards adhering to ISO 7811, ISO 7812, and ISO 7813. Source code to the reference software is available so applications can make adjustments for custom card formats. An ultra-low-power stop mode provides the ultimate in low-power performance. In this mode, only a minimum amount of circuitry is powered to support detection of self-destruct events. When the main power supply is present and the microcontroller is in stop mode, the device has the option of exiting stop mode when stimulated by general-purpose port pins or the serial interfaces.
