DS5250 Rev 4; 11/08 ABRIDGED DATA SHEET EVAALVUAAILTAIOBNLEKIT High-Speed Secure Microcontroller General Description The DS5250 is a highly secure, four clocks-permachine cycle, 100% 8051-instruction-set-compatible microprocessor in Maxim’s secure microcontroller family. It was designed to be the cryptographic engine of PIN pads, financial terminals, and any other application in which data security is paramount. A key feature of the device is that it encrypts its program memory and optionally its data memory with a hardware-based single- or triple-DES (data encryption standard) algorithm, making it almost impossible to extract information. It also implements block cipher encoding that uses block addresses to modify the encrypted data, further strengthening security.
