MagBar

Size
The standard MagBar Chip Set package dimensions are 14.5 mm. by 13.5 mm. and 2 mm. thick (approximately 0.57" by 0.53" and 0.08") for the OKI microcontroller in a QFP package and 17.5 mm. by 17.5 mm. and 4.35 mm. thick (0.69" by 0.69" and .17" thick) for the WSI multifunction chip in a PLCC package. The basic bar code and magnetic stripe decode subsystem with support components is only about 38 mm. by 38 mm. (1.5" by 1.5") on a two layer board.
Magnetic Stripe Decoding
The MagBar Chip Set decodes single, dual and triple track magnetic stripes on credit cards and driver's licenses. The chip set supports driver's license formats accepted by the national motor vehicles standards group AAMVA and the California Department of Motor Vehicles. The encoded data can be in ANSI, ABA, IATA, or Thrift magnetic stripe format. There is an option for selecting the tracks to be read, sending or suppressing track 1 start/stop sentinels, sending the track two account number only, and an option for selecting the track separator character for multi-track readers.
Programmable Memory
The ID TECH chip set uses a standard microcontroller with a programmable memory chip. This approach creates a two chip solution with rapid upgrade flexibility. Some vendors use a "Masked Microcontroller" approach, which requires at least a SRAM chip and a latch chip, therefore a three chip solution. Also, this approach requires long lead times for firmware revisions.

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 good read LED function may be added with the addition of the 3 mm. green LED, a transistor and a resistor.
  • Low Power Options: There are lower power chip sets available. Contact ID TECHnologies for lead times.
  • Non-Volatile Memory: An AT93C56 EEPROM may be added for non-volatile memory to store variable configuration data. The SO-8 package is recommended.
  • Package Options: The microcontroller chip is also available in either a 44 pin PLCC package or a 40 pin DIP package. The multifunction chip is also available in a 44 pin QFP package. Contact ID TECHnologies for lead times.
