OCR601 – Operational Description OCR601 is an USB connected passport reader which has a Camera Imager and a RFID contactless reader. The camera imager is used as an OCR decoder by the host application, which decodes the passport MRZ data. The MRZ data is then sent to the RFID reader to authenticate with the RFID chip in the passport to read the data. The following figure shows the hardware architecture of OCR601. Fig 1: OCR601 Hardware Architecture The IR illumination circuitry is independent from rest of the device. It provides IR illumination for the the camera imager. It should be noted that a separate USB cable is used to power the IR illumination circuit. The RFID contactless reader drives two independent antennas. There is one antenna around the glass prism window. This antenna will be referred as antenna #1 in this document. The other antenna is near the power LED indicator. This antenna will be referred as antenna #2 in this document. Typically, both these antennas will be scanning for RFID passports – one at a time. High Speed USB Hub: Device classification 2 port USB High speed hub Operating Voltage / Current 3.3V / 150mA Digital/Analog Digital circuitry Crystal Frequency 24 MHz PLL Multiplier x20 (480 MHz internal frequency) Data transfer rate 480Mbps Intentional Radiation No Software requirements USB host should have generic USB hub driver. All windows machine supports this USB hub class and it should start up right away. There are not application software requirements. Operational Description: The High speed USB hub provides USB connectivity to the RFID and the camera. It provides two USB downstream ports. One of the downstream ports is connected to a RFID full speed device and the other is connected to a 1.3 Mega pixel imager. Camera Imager: Device classification USB 2.0 High speed camera Operating Voltage / Current 5V / 150mA Digital/Analog Digital circuitry Crystal Frequency 24 MHz PLL Multiplier x20 (480 MHz internal frequency) Data transfer rate 480Mbps Intentional Radiation No Image resolution 1280 x 800 (1.3 Mega pixel) Software requirements USB host should have Access IS camera drivers installed. The camera starts-up only if camera application software (like Amcap or IScap) is running. The camera shuts down when then application software is closed. Operational Description: The camera imager is a USB 2.0 high speed camera capable of streaming images at 1.3 Mega pixel resolutions. The data from the camera reaches the USB host through the USB high speed hub. It should be noted that the camera is in shutdown state when there is no application software running. For normal operation camera application software like Amcap or IScap should be running. It should be noted that the IR illumination circuit is also embedded in the imager PCB. The illumination could be turned ON or OFF by the camera digital circuit. This kind of arrangement helps the USB host software to control the illumination. The power supply for the illumination circuit is drawn from USB cable #2. In fact, USB cable #2 is used only for the illumination power supply and the USB data lines are NOT used. The following diagram shows the internal blocks of the camera imager along with the IR illumination circuit. Fig 2: Camera imager internal block diagram IR Illumination: Device classification Boost regulator for lighting application Operating Voltage / Current 5V / 250mA Digital/Analog Analog circuitry Switching Frequency 1.2MHz LED drive Voltage / Current ~25V / 20mA (Drives a string of 10 IR LEDs) Intentional Radiation No Software requirements None. Starts up as soon as power is applied Operational Description: IR illumination circuit drives 10 IR LEDs to provide a uniform illumination to the camera imager. Please refer operational description of camera Imager. Sounder: Device classification Audible tone generator Operating Voltage / Current 3.3V / 20mA Digital/Analog Digital circuitry Operating Frequency 8 MHz Intentional Radiation No Software requirements None. Camera imager digital circuit controls the tone generator. The communication is through SPI interface operating at 100KHz. Operational Description: Sounder block is basically a small microcontroller that generates tones. The sounder controller receives commands from the camera digital circuit on which tone it has to play. With this kind of arrangement, the USB host software can access the sounder through the camera digital circuit. RFID Contactless Reader RFID contactless reader contains both digital and analog section. Information on these two sections are provided below. RFID Contactless Reader – Digital Section Device classification USB full speed device Operating Voltage / Current 5V / 50mA Digital/Analog Digital circuitry Crystal Frequency 8 MHz PLL Multiplier x6 (48 Mhz internal frequency) Data transfer rate 12Mbps Intentional Radiation No Software requirements Microsoft CCID smartcard driver is required. Only if the driver is loaded in the host machine the digital section will enable the RFID analog section. There are no application software requirements to get the RFID active. However, to reader RFID passport application software (like Golden reader tool) is required. RFID Contactless Reader – Analog Section Device classification RFID transceiver Operating Voltage / Current 5V / 150mA RFID protocol ISO14443 Type A and Type B Digital/Analog Analog circuitry Crystal Frequency 13.56 MHz PLL Multiplier None RF Data transfer rate 424 Kbps Intentional Radiation Yes Carrier frequency 13.56 Mhz +/- 7 KHz Sub Carrier frequency 847 KHz (max) Number of Antenna 2 Output power < 250 mW RF field strength 6 A/m (RMS) Software requirements Refer the RFID contactless reader - digital section software requirements Operational Description: The RFID contactless reader is a proximity reader that operates on 13.56 Mhz carrier frequency. It communicates to RFID passports using ISO14443 A/B protocols. The reader has two inbuilt antennas and it keeps switching the carr…
