Everswitch iCLASS / MIFARE / DESFire reader plus keypad from Baran Advanced Technologies

The EVERSWITCH™ line of Piezo Electric Human Machine Interfaces from Baran Advanced Technologies spans from single switches via a variety of keypads and control panels to full-size keyboards. All products are rugged, sealed, tamper and vandal-proof solid-state constructions featuring unprecedented durability and reliability.

The EVERSWITCH™ family of products has been successfully tested for 50,000,000 cycles including vibration and impact tests. The non-mechanical, fully electronic patented switch technology allows for perfect adaptation to retro fit as well as new designs and interfaces easily with existing systems. The module concept enables us to produce prototypes in an extremely short time with negligible tooling costs.

The ASM is equipped with three electronic devices:

• Magnetic card reader
• HID proximity card reader
• Piezoelectric keypad

The iClass/MIFARE/DESFire can read either iClass credentials (transmitting as Wiegand formatted data as encoded), MIFARE® Standard, Ultralight or DESFire® credentials (transmitting Wiegand data based on the cards serial number in 26-, 32-, 34-, 40- or 56-bit formats).

The ASM supports the following operation modes:

• Swipe a valid Magnetic Card in either direction. The unit will read the contents and send it over the
  data wires to the host.
• Enter a PIN code. The unit will send each digit over the same data wires to the host.
• Present a valid Proximity card. The unit will read and send the data to the host.
