High Speed Decoding Chip for Bar Codes
The standard QuickBar Chip package dimensions are 17.5 mm. by 17.5 mm. and 4.35 mm. thick (0.69" by 0.69" and .17" thick) in a PLCC-44 package. The basic bar code decode subsystem with support components is only about 22 mm. by 32 mm. (0.875" by 1.25") on a two-layer board.
Options  
Beeper - A good read beeper function may be added with the addition of the beeper, a diode, a transistor and a resistor LED - A 3mm. good read LED function may be added without other additional components Package Options - The QuickBar Chip is available in a 44-pin TQFP or PLCC package. The QuickBar II, which supports additional symbologies in a single chip, is available in a 44-pin TQFP package only.
Programmable Memory
The ID TECH QuickBar decode chip has a programmable memory which creates a single chip solution with a rapid upgrade flexibility. Some vendors use a "masked microcontroller" approach that requires at least a SRAM chip and a latch chip, therefore a three-chip solution. The "masked microcontroller" approach requires long lead time for firmware revisions, ID TECH's solution provides the optimum in performance with the added advantage of easily revising its programs.
