MagTek 3-track ASIC

MagTek 3-track ASIC Features

Low cost solution for single, dual, or triple track readers - One triple-track chip works for all.

Compact design – 4 mm x 5mm 14 pin MLFTM (also called QFN) surface mount package

Minimal external components – only a decoupling capacitor is required. Only 4 signals, VDD, VSS, DATA, and STROBE to connect to your micro-controller for up to 3 tracks

Data buffer with Shift-Out – allows full card data to be locally stored on ASIC. Retrieve when desired. Use a low-cost controller with no interrupts, limited memory, low-speed, low pin-count, etc.

High noise immunity – with proper PCB layout, the ASIC can withstand noisy PC monitors, cell phones, switching power supplies, etc.

High performance decoding – reads badly damaged cards; compensates for poor head mounting

AGC (Automatic Gain Control) – reads cards from 30% - 200% of International Standards Organization (ISO) 7811 amplitude standard
