The ACR88 USB pinpad smartcard reader
The ACR88 is a unique new device with powerful features and excellent price-performance.
Unlike its predecessors, this new pinpad reader offers the ability to operate in stand-alone, battery-powered mode as well as connected mode. The reader’s features enable a wide range of new handheld smartcard applications including remote authentication, ticketing and in the field data collection.
The ACR88 has two smartcard slots and three internal SAM slots. As well as operating via the USB interface as a traditional secure pinpad, stand-alone program scripts can be downloaded using ACS’s new Astro Builder development platform.
Contactless, Memory and Microprocessor Cards
 GemClub Memo
This card is a flexible alternative to other memory cards such as SLE-type cards, the difference being that GemClub Memo operates using asynchronous (T=0) protocols for communication with the host system, and can therefore be programmed via PC/SC rather than having to use proprietary drivers or library calls.
ACOS3-16K Card
The ACOS3 card from ACS is a new microprocessor smartcard with 16K bytes of EEPROM memory. Backwards compatible with ACOS2, it supports 3 volt operation and PPS speed negotiation as well as having twice as much on-board storage.
I-Code 2 Labels
I-Code 2 labels are long-range, wireless, RFID chips in a sticky label format. They have ISO 15693 read/write functionality. Being flexible and discreet makes them the ideal solution for such applications as article or supply chain management.
Mifare 1K Labels
The popular Mifare 1K chip can now be found in the form of a convenient label. Suitable for NFC-type applications.
S300 SDIO smartcard readers
The S300 SDIO smartcard reader provides smartcard read/write capabilities for portable units such as PDAs and smart-phones. Many mobile applications are limited by the lack of smartcard slots on the target device, and this reader can provide the perfect solution.
The slim-line unit has a short cable that can be plugged into any handheld device with an SDIO slot. Various Pocket PC and Windows Mobile operating systems are supported.
