What is Dallas Semiconductors Java-powered Crypto iButton?
The Java-powered Crypto iButton is a secure Java Virtual Machine encased in a stainless-steel circular container only 16mm wide. It is Java-powered and designed according to Sun’s Java Card 2.0 specification. Because it has more RAM than other Java Card-based products, your programs can do more, and since it relies on battery-backed static RAM to store its applets, it can be programmed over and over again as needs change. Perhaps best of all, the iButton’s small size means it can be integrated into all sorts of personal accessories for both safe keeping and convenience of use. This iButton has a super-fast, 1024-bit modular math coprocessor for cryptographic operations. Having such a coprocessor makes the Java-powered Crypto iButton ideal as a general-purpose security device, fully capable of performing secure transactions over the internet. Coming soon: Java-Powered iButton version 2.0 with 134k of RAM. • What JDKs are supported by the iB-IDE Developer’s Kit? Answer: This version was
