Our most popular form factor. Choose a product type below to view detailed information on individual products available (via Datakey.com in a pop-up window).
For additional security, Datakey offers the Secure Memory line of tokens, featuring the Unique ID series and the CryptoMemory series. Secure Memory tokens are available with I2C or Atmel 2-wire interfaces and capacities from 1 Kb to 256 Kb. The tokens feature:
- Ultra-rugged Construction - SlimLine™ tokens are solid over-moulded using a durable composite, making them impervious to liquids and virtually crush-proof.
- Redundant Contacts - With contacts on both sides of the memory token it is impossible to insert it “upside-down.”
- Branding Options - The tokens are available in six standard colors and come in standard and extended lengths. The extended length token can be OEM-branded with a moulded logo.
Datakey offers both board- and panel-mount receptacles. The board-mount models are available in both surface-mount and through-hole versions. Additional features include:
- IP65 and IP67 Ratings - Several receptacles are available in IP65- and IP67-rated versions. Versions that reduce radiated emissions are also available.
- High Cycle-life Contacts - All SlimLine™ receptacles are rated for a minimum of 50,000 insertion cycles. That’s 33 times more than most USB receptacles.
- Cabling Options - Choose a panel mount receptacle with a standard 10-pin header (for use with a ribbon cable) or choose a locking connector for high-vibration applications.
It is often desired to use a PC to read data from or write data to a memory token. The SlimLink programmers support the Unique ID Secure Memory token and all of the Serial Memory tokens and connect to a PC via a USB or RS-232 port. The programmers come with Windows® drivers and a sample application. The sample application can be used for troubleshooting when integrating a memory token into an embedded design, as it provides a known-good way to communicate with the memory device. For those who wish to develop their own Windows® applications, we offer a development kit with all of the necessary tools, including the programmer. There is not currently a programmer available for the CryptoMemory® tokens.
The SlimLink development kits include everything needed to develop a Windows® application that can read data from and write data to a Serial Memory token using a SlimLink programmer. The development kit includes:
- 2 x Memory token samples
- Simlink Programmer
- SR4210PCB board-mount receptacle
- SR4210 panel-mount receptacle
- Plus all cables, drivers, software and documentation
