Definitions

  • the invention relates to an arrangement for a security module, according to the specified in the preamble of claim 1.
  • a security module is especially for use in a Franking machine or mail processing machine or computer with Mail processing function suitable.
  • the invention has for its object the security of a to ensure unauthorized manipulation of a security module if the battery is arranged interchangeably.
  • the security module has a voltage monitoring unit with resettable latching on by the processor can be queried and reset.
  • Monitoring the voltage a battery that is used for battery-backed RAM and Function of an internal clock is required, the goal is when falling below a certain voltage level to trigger actions that for deleting security-relevant data and the current time to lead.
  • the self-holding allows the state to fall below the voltage to preserve until reliable proof is possible. The latter is only the case after the module has been used again System voltage is supplied. An inspector or other authorized Person making appropriate entries on the keyboard of the franking device executes, can restore the original state.
  • the security module 100 has, in a manner known per se, a microprocessor 120 which contains an integrated read-only memory (internal ROM) (not shown) with the special application program, which is approved for the franking machine by the postal authority or by the respective mail carrier. Alternatively, a conventional read-only memory ROM or FLASH memory can be connected to the module-internal data bus 126.
  • the security module 100 has a reset circuit unit 130, a user circuit ASIC 150 and a logic PAL 160 which serves as a control signal generator for the ASIC.
  • FIG. 4 shows a block diagram of the postal security module PSM 100 in a preferred variant.
  • the negative pole of the battery 134 is grounded and a pin P23 of the contact group 102.
  • the positive pole of the battery 134 is connected via line 193 to one input of voltage changeover switch 180 and line 191 carrying system voltage is connected to the other input of voltage changeover switch 180.
  • the SL-389 / P is suitable as a battery 134 for a lifespan of up to 3.5 years or the SL-386 / P for a lifespan of up to 6 years with a maximum power consumption by the PSM 100 commercially available circuit type ADM 8693ARN can be used.
  • the output of the voltage changeover switch 180 is connected to the battery monitoring unit 12 and the detection unit 13 via the line 136.
