Electronic card
First Claim
1. A card for use in a financial transaction, including the acts of:
- activating the card through an activation mechanism;
driving a set of user data from a first secure microprocessor through a signal line to a second processor;
processing the set of user data in the second processor to generate a series of digital transaction signals;
driving the series of digital transaction signals into a RC specialty circuit;
converting the series of digital transaction signals into two distinct analog waveform signals;
driving the two distinct analog waveform signals along at least two tracks such that the first analog signal and the second analog signal cancel each other magnetically so that the resulting magnetic flux at a target broadcast area replicates the magnetic field created in a magnetic stripe.

Abstract
An electronic card that, once activated, can drive a set of user data from a first secure microprocessor through a signal line to a second processor, process the set of user data in the second processor to generate a series of digital transaction signals, drive the series of digital transaction signals into a RC specialty circuit, convert the series of digital transaction signals into two distinct analog waveform signals, and drive the two distinct analog waveform signals along at least two tracks such that the first analog signal and the second analog signal cancel each other magnetically so that the resulting magnetic flux at a target broadcast area replicates the magnetic field created in a magnetic stripe.

4. A card for use in a magnetic stripe reader, comprising:
-
a first processor operatively coupled to a power supply and a second secure processor; at least two transmission lines connecting the second secure processor to an RC conversion circuit; and at least two broadcasting lines connected to output from the RC conversion circuit and wound around a strip of magnetic broadcasting enhancement material; wherein signals from the second secure processor are converted in the RC conversion circuit such that when the converted signals are pulsed on the at least two broadcasting lines, magnetic flux patterns are present on that simulates a static magnetic strip operable to be read by a magnetic read head of the magnetic stripe reader; and wherein the second processor is not directly connected to a non-secure port of the card. - View Dependent Claims (5)
