Definitions

  • Modern franking machines, or other devices for franking from Postgut are using a printer to print the postage stamp on the postal matter, with a control for controlling the printing and the peripheral components of the franking machine, with an accounting unit for billing postal charges that are in non-volatile Stores are kept, and a cryptographic unit Secure postage data.
  • the accounting unit and / or the unit for securing the printing of the postage data can be implemented by a so-called security module (EP 789 333 A2).
  • the processor of the security module is, for example, an OTP (One Time Programmable), which contains sensitive data such as cryptographic Key that saves read-out. Encapsulation by a Security housing provides further protection.
  • OTP One Time Programmable
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the franking machine from FIG shown at the back.
  • the franking machine consists of a meter 1 and a base 2.
  • the latter is with a chip card read / write unit 70 equipped, which is arranged behind the guide plate 20 and from the Upper housing edge 22 is accessible.
  • a chip card 49 is turned upwards inserted into the slot 72 below.
  • the guide plate is in contact with the input data a franking stamp 31 printed.
  • the letter feed opening is through a transparent plate 21 and the guide plate 20 laterally limited.
  • the output of the voltage switch 180 is present via the line 136 a voltage monitoring unit 12 and a detection unit 13 on.
  • the voltage monitoring unit 12 and the detection unit 13 are with the pins 1, 2, 4 and 5 of the processor 120 over the lines 135, 164 and 137, 139 in communication link.
  • the exit of the Voltage switch 180 is also on line 136 Supply input of a first memory SRAM by the existing battery 134 to NVRAM 116 a non-volatile memory technology first.
  • Lines are connected to pins 6 and 7 of processor 120, which only with one, for example on the motherboard of meter 1, inserted security module 100 form a conductor loop 18.
  • inserted security module 100 form a conductor loop 18.
  • For dynamic checking of the connection of the postal Safety module PSM 100 on the main board of meter 1 signal levels changing by processor 120 in very irregular Time intervals applied to pins 6, 7 and over the loop looped back.
  • the two light-emitting diodes 107 and 108 of the signaling means are separate components in this variant.
  • the two LEDs 107 and 108 of the signaling means are two Output signals of the I / O ports at pins 8, 9 of processor 120 controlled.
  • the LEDs can also be used to differentiate the status flashing controlled so that at least five different ones State groups can be distinguished, for example, by the following LED states are characterized: LED 107, 108 both off, LED 107 flashing red, LED 107 flashing red, LED 108 flashing green, LED 108 glows green.
  • the meter case is also like this again constructed that the user the status display of the security module from the outside, for example through a viewing window or an opening 109 able to see.
  • a connector advantageously contains 127 the contact groups 101 and 102, the connector 127 on the Conductor side of the circuit board 106 is arranged.
  • FIG. 7 is a top view of the postal security module shown second variant.
  • the potting compound 105 surrounds cuboid the first part of the circuit board 106, while the second part of the Printed circuit board 106 for the two light-emitting diodes 107 and 108, the replaceable battery 134 and for the connector 127 (here not visible) remains free of potting compound.
  • the battery contact terminals 103 and 104 are covered by the battery in FIG. 7, but are as well as the connector 127 visible in the side view of Figure 8a.
  • the potting of the first part of the circuit board 106 shows neither openings still surveys and thus offers fewer points of attack for one Manipulation with criminal intent.
  • the potting material 105 is preferably a two-component epoxy resin or polymer or Plastic.
  • a potting compound made of STYCAST ®2651-40 FR is suitable from EMERSON & CUMING with preferably CATALYST 9 as second component.
  • FIGS. 8a and 8b show a view of the security module of FIG second variant from the right or from the left.
  • the location of the Connector 127 with the contact groups 101 and 102 below the Printed circuit board 106 is shown in FIGS. 8a and 8b in conjunction with FIG. 6 more clearly visible.
