Product Overview
KY3688C is a metal PCI encrypting pin pad certified to PCI 3.0, built for attended and unattended payment points. It uses a physical keypad of #304 stainless steel with a defined layout that includes braille, connects over an RS232 Serial Port and manages 16 keys under MK/SK key management with remote key loading. The device measures 87.5*91.5 mm.
- PCI 3.0 certification alongside CE, ROHS, FCC, IP65 and IK7
- Rated for a temperature range of -40°C ~ 105°C, covering unheated outdoor enclosures
- MTBF greater than 42950 with a key press life of 2 millions
- Remote key loading so devices do not need a site visit to be keyed
- Defined layout including braille for accessible PIN entry
- Current below 40mA, the lowest draw in this group
Application Scenarios
- Attended payment counters using a PED class device
- Unattended payment points on forecourts and in transport
- ATM PIN entry requiring PCI certification
- Outdoor installations exposed to wide temperature swings
Who It Is For
- ATM and payment terminal manufacturers requiring PCI 3.0
- Acquirer-driven projects with remote key loading requirements
- Unattended payment kiosk builders
- Integrators needing a braille-equipped keypad
Problems It Solves
- PCI 3.0 certification required before a terminal can be deployed
- Key injection visits to remote machines, addressed by remote key loading
- Accessibility rules requiring braille on the PIN keypad
- Keypads outside their temperature rating in unheated enclosures
- Impact exposure at unattended sites, covered by the IK7 rating
Technical Features
- PIN Entry Technology of physical keypad, Class PED
- Interface of RS232 Serial Port with MK/SK key management
- Algorithms 3DES, AES, SHA256 and RSA to ISO9564-1 0 / 1 / 3 / 4, ANSI X9.8, ANSI X9.19, ECB and CBC
- Key Number 16 covering Master Key, PIN Key, Mac Key and Data Key
- Operating Voltage 5.0V ±10% with a Battery Voltage of 3.0V ±10%
- Material #304 with a defined layout including braille
- Relative Humidity 5% ~ 95% non-condensing

How It Compares
| KY3688A metal EPP | KY3688C is certified to PCI 3.0 in a 87.5*91.5 mm size, where KY3688A is PCI 1.3 at 145*100 mm. |
|---|---|
| KY3088X encrypting pin pad | KY3688C adds PCI 3.0 certification, IK7 impact rating and a -40°C ~ 105°C temperature range. |
| Non-certified pin pads | Key management is MK/SK with remote key loading and 16 keys, which a plain keypad does not provide. |
Use Guide
- Confirm your acquirer accepts PCI 3.0 for the deployment window
- Size the opening to the 87.5*91.5 mm device
- Provide an RS232 Serial Port on the host controller
- Supply 5.0V ±10% and keep the 3.0V ±10% battery in service
- Plan remote key loading with your key management host before rollout
