Description
OEM Readers
A small‑form‑factor device that combines a 3‑track magnetic stripe secure card reader authenticator with contact EMV chip reading, and can be paired with DynaWave to add contactless/NFC capabilities, offering a flexible hybrid solution.
The IP34-rated mDynamo with Outdoor Bezel is a compact EMV chip card reading module built on the MagneSafe security architecture, featuring a spring‑loaded door to block dust and moisture for reliable integration into both indoor and outdoor unattended kiosks.
A manually operated, push‑in magnetic stripe reader that minimizes incorrect card insertion with an optional dual‑head design and an open‑frame construction that keeps the card slot free of debris, available in TTL, RS‑232, and USB interfaces.
oDynamo is a PCI PTS 5.x SRED‑certified, secure insertion card reader authenticator for OEM solutions that reads both magnetic stripe and EMV contact chip data, supports USB, Ethernet, and RS‑232 connections, and features a sealed, liquid‑impervious chassis designed for harsh unattended environments like gas pumps, ATMs, and vending machines.
Secure card reader authenticator that reads up to three tracks from ISO and AAMVA cards, featuring a sealed, tamper‑resistant design for unattended and outdoor installations.
Secure card reader authenticator that reads up to three tracks from ISO and AAMVA cards, featuring a sealed, tamper‑resistant design for unattended and outdoor installations.
OEM Components
The first magnetic sensing, media-validating, tamper-resistant security module that reads three tracks of magnetic stripe data, encrypts it inside the head using 3DES and DUKPT, and authenticates cards with MagnePrint technology to help OEMs meet stringent PCI security requirements.
High-performance, low-cost three-channel magnetic stripe decoder chips that significantly simplify the card-reader-to-micro-controller interface, including the Delta ASIC (proven for three-track reading) and the next-generation Qwantum ASIC with integrated encryption, SPI support, and ultra-low power modes.
An EMV contact chip card reader module that connects via USB, features two optional auxiliary ports (SPI and UART) to easily add magnetic stripe or contactless/NFC reading, and is built on the MagneSafe Security Architecture for secure chip card transactions.
A compact bidirectional magnetic stripe swipe reader available in USB keyboard emulation or HID format, designed for low‑cost, high‑reliability card reading in payment, membership, loyalty, and identification applications.
Highly efficient three-channel fully integrated magnetic stripe decoder chips (including the Delta and Qwantum families) that simplify the card-reader-to-micro-controller interface via MagTek's "Shift-Out" protocol while supporting advanced features like integrated encryption, SPI, and USB-C connectivity.
Modular card guide rails that work with MagTek’s IntelliHead product line (including the encrypted MagneSafe™ IntelliHead) to provide a complete card swipe assembly in lengths such as 43mm, 60mm, 70mm, and 90mm for various OEM integration needs.
A low-profile magnetic read head with an embedded high-performance multi-channel decoder chip that outputs raw track data using the simple "Shift-Out" protocol (data/strobe), making it ideal for battery-powered or microcontrollers where minimal power consumption is critical.
