Product Description






General Description

The PCF7936, HITAG 2 is a programmable Security

Transponder employing mutual authentication ideally

suited for contactless authentication and memory

access between a basestation and the transponder.

The transponder meets the security and performance

requirements of modern vehicle immobiliser

applications. Excellent device sensitivity (large

distance) and short authentication time ensure easy

application and outstanding system performance.

The transponder provides 256 bit of non-volatile

memory (EEPROM) from which 128 bit are reserved

for user data storage. User data and configuration data

may be exchanged in cipher mode for advanced prepersonalisation

techniques. Memory access flags

support read and/or write protection of data.

The device performs a fast mutual authentication

algorithm, employing a Random Number, Secret Key

and Passwords. In addition the HITAG 2 features a

factory programmed 32 bit unique identification number

to enable unambiguously device identification.

The HITAG 2 features two Read Only modes for

downward compatibility with common Read Only

systems.

The transponder power supply and system clock is

derived from the magnetic component of the RF field

generated by the basestation. Due to low power

consumption the HITAG 2 provides excellent sensitivity

in read and write mode.

The transponder is assembled in a small leadless stick

shaped plastic package.
