Bar Memory Token 3D CAD Model
LCB Series, ISB Series, SSB Series
Bar receptacles mate with all Bar memory tokens and are designed to mount on the surface or in a corner of an OEM device with only the contact pins extending inside for electrical connection. This minimizes the amount of interior space required. Bar receptacles have been tested to a host of MIL-STD-810 environmental specifications.
"Flat Target" Bar receptacles mate with all Bar memory tokens and are designed to mount on the surface or in a corner of an OEM device with nothing extending inside. Spring probes may be used to make contact with the flat targets on the bottom of the receptacle. This minimizes the amount of interior space required.

This product change notification (PCN) documents a change made to production equipment in ATEK Access Technologies' Brainerd, Minnesota manufacturing facility. As part of ATEK's commitment to investing in our manufacturing capabilities, we recently replaced one of our injection molding machines. This horizontal press is used to mold many of the housing components that are used in Datakey receptacles. This machine is also used to make many of the plastic components in our Plug memory token products. While the machine itself is brand new, the same tooling that has been used in the past will continue to be used with the new machine. Likewise, there will be no changes to the materials used to mold these products. In fact, there are no changes to the form, fit, or function of any of the products made on this machine. This PCN is simply a notification that a new machine is being used to make the parts listed on this PCN. See the PDF for full details.

The UFX PC Adapter provides a convenient way to read data from or write data to UFX RUGGEDrive™ memory tokens using a PC. The adapter plugs into USB type A ports. When a UFX token is then inserted, it appears to the computer as a USB Mass Storage device (i.e. a USB flash drive). No special drivers should be needed.
Datakey UFX memory tokens deliver USB flash drive functionality in a more robust and secure form factor than consumer flash drives. The tokens are available in capacities from 4 GB to 64 GB and utilize a USB 2.0 Hi-Speed interface. Each token contains a unique serial number which can be used for token identification or for encrypting on-board data.
Datakey UFX-I memory tokens deliver USB flash drive functionality in a more robust and secure form factor than consumer flash drives. As part of the Industrial RUGGEDrive line, UFX-I memory tokens are rated for operation from -40°C to +85°C. Each token contains a unique serial number which can be used for token identification or for encrypting on-board data. UFX-I tokens feature 3D TLC NAND flash, where UFX-IS tokens utilize 3D TLC NAND flash operating in pseudo-SLC mode.

Use Cases for CryptoAuthentication Memory Tokens White Paper
Datakey CryptoAuthentication portable memory tokens utilize Microchip ATSHA204A and ATECC608A CryptoAuthentication ICs. This white paper illustrates some of the applications/use cases for CryptoAuthentication memory tokens. The white paper explains at a high level, which features and functions of the ATSHA204A and ATECC608A (or ATECC608B) would be used for each use case.
This application note explains how interrupts can be used to detect when a Datakey CryptoAuthentication memory token has been inserted or removed, when used with the Microchip CryptoAuthentication starter kit and a Datakey CryptoAuthentication extension board.
