STEVAL-IPC004V1 (STMICROELECTRONICS)

The STEVAL-IPC004V1 is a demo board based on STM32F107VC microcontroller. This board works in a similar way to a typical POS. It captures item information using a USB based barcode scanner and after processing the barcode information, adds it to the transaction record. To complete the transaction, there is the option of payment using a smartcard/magnetic card interface over GPRS or by entering the cash amount using a keypad. The internal thermal printer is used to print the sales report and the sales record is recorded in the on board memory. The STEVAL-IPC004V1 operates from a 5V adaptor which is connected to the board through the power jack provided. The system also comes with a PC based server application which has various access levels to control STEVAL-IPC004V1 activities such as registration, the loading of item allotment tables in the internal memory and the obtaining of sales data for future reference.
