EEPROM), connectors for devices (SAM reader, mag stripe rdr, printer, USB-A,
Modem & power supply jack). Lithium battery backup is located on this board too.
• A secure box, mades of PCB, that covers sensitive signals/components of the
keyboard board.
The Terminal is made of following devices:
• 32-bit RISC core ARM7, as SP (Secure Processor) ;
• 32-bit RISC core ARM9, as MP (Main Processor) ;
• 4 Mb Flash, 16 Mb SDRAM, 1024-bit EEPROM ;
• Lithium battery to back-up sensitive data and triggering data stored in SP ;
• Magnetic stripe reader ;
• Customer smart card reader ;
• 1 accessible SIM-sized reader ;
• 128x64 graphic display (no backlight, no icons) ;
