Abstract: Techniques are provided for detecting a fault across a pair of lines. Pulse power is applied across the pair of lines. The pulse power comprises alternating pulse on-time intervals and pulse off-time intervals. During a pulse off-time interval, a resistor is connected across the pair of lines and then disconnected when a voltage across the pair of lines reaches a first droop percentage in a first period of time. After disconnecting the resistor, it is determined whether the voltage across the pair of lines droops at least a second droop percentage within a second period of time that begins after the first period of time. Occurrence of a line-to-line fault across the pair of lines is determined when the voltage across the pair of lines droops by at least the second droop percentage or more within the second period of time.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to a payment device to detect real-time suspicious payment cards. Prior to a transaction, a payment device detects suspicious payment cards based on captured images and determined indicia of the payment card. An alert may be generated upon detection of any suspicious or fraudulent payment card. In some arrangements, the payment device may utilize machine learning models or machine learning capabilities to detect suspicious payment cards. A characterization score may be generated and used to determine if a payment card is suspicious. The characterization scores may be updated based on different card issuer criteria and transaction use of each payment card.
