1.1 Use Cases

The TA010 is a member of the Microchip CryptoAutomotive family of high-security cryptographic devices that combine world-class hardware-based key storage with hardware cryptographic accelerators to implement authentication.

The TA010 device has a command set that allows for its usage in many applications. The primary uses include the following:

  • Electric Vehicle (EV) Battery Authentication 


    Validates that a battery is authentic and comes from the OEM shown on the battery

  • Ecosystem Control and Anti-Counterfeiting
