iButtonsĀ®–Durable Enough for Harsh Environments, Secure Enough for eCash Transactions

An iButtonĀ® is a computer chip enclosed in a 16mm stainless-steel case. The chip inside each iButton contains a globally unique address—think of it as a URL for each iButton. With functions like read/write memory, clocks, thermometers, and dataloggers, iButtons have been solving tough Auto ID problems and lowering system operating costs worldwide for 13 years.

Access Control
Why constantly replace flimsy plastic cards, when durable iButtons can serve as access control keys to hotels, offices, and homes? iButtons are wear-tested to last at least 10 years and can be mounted on key fobs, rings, watches, or other items.

Electronic Cash
You don’t need to carry a lot of coins when you can carry secure eCash. The ISO Standard Secure Hash Algorithm used in iButtons thwarts even the best hackers, so your money is always safe. iButtons allow your eCash terminals to be simple, robust, and very low power.

Temperature Dataloggers
Use the world’s smallest temperature datalogger to monitor temperature-sensitive shipments. iButtons are so inexpensive compared to other dataloggers that you can attach them to individual containers, rather than just one per crate.

Inspection and Maintenance Tracking
Simplify inspection and maintenance tracking in harsh environments by using rugged iButtons to label equipment and store valuable information right on the unit.

Over 60 million iButtons are used daily to solve tough Auto ID problems worldwide.
