MagneSafe V5 SCRAs

MagTek offers a range of high-performance, low-cost Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) designed for OEM developers building magnetic stripe card reading systems. These three-channel fully integrated decoder chips significantly simplify the card-reader to microcontroller interface. The family includes the Triple-Track Delta ASIC, a proven solution widely used to read three tracks of card data for financial and retail applications. The next-generation Qwantum ASIC adds support for the Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI), integrated AES-256 encryption, and much lower power demand, making it ideal for advanced, battery-powered devices requiring both card data decoding and Qwantum security features. The ASICs are available in ultra-compact packages requiring minimal external components, feature a data buffer with Shift-Out protocol, high noise immunity, high performance decoding, low voltage operation, and a wide operational temperature range supporting a broad spectrum of card swipe speeds. The official MagTek ASICs support page is a central hub containing all the resources you'll need. There you can find the 2024 product catalog, the OEM Components brochure offering an overview of ASICs, Heads, Head Assemblies, and Rails, programmer's manuals including an application note for character conversion, and technical reference manuals such as the Magnetic Card Reader Design Kit and specifications for the Triple-Track Delta ASIC with Shift-Out (3 Volt and RoHS Compliant versions).
