Logic to register a personal point of sale (POS) device. Logic may communicate with the registration processor to establish a secure communication channel. Logic may access a basic input output system to obtain platform information. Logic may transmit the platform information to the registration processor to identify a certification associated with the device. Logic may communicate with a payment instrument via a card reader. Logic may transmit an encrypted message from the card reader to the registration processor to bind the payment instrument to the device. Logic may receive a communication from the device comprising platform information. Logic may perform a security protocol to establish a secure communication channel with the device. Logic may determine an existence of the certification for the device in the database based upon the platform information. And logic may register the platform in response to locating the certification of the platform.

Methods and arrangements for a personal point of sale device

A system and method for crossing clocks from a source clock to a destination clock is disclosed. In one embodiment, a source clock phase enable signal is used to enable a set of latch components to selectively input a source clock pulse. The outputs of the latch components may be selected by a multiplexor according to the phases of the destination clock. In another embodiment, a time delay may be passed into the destination clock domain and may be calculated by a number of destination clock cycle time periods. In certain circumstances, the time delay may be adjusted to compensate for longer delays in the clock crossing process.

Method and apparatus for flexible and programmable clock crossing control with dynamic compensation

A method and apparatus for using different timings to latch signals sent by two memory devices of identical design to compensate for differences in the lengths of conductors across which the signals must propagate.
