Compact programmable magnetic stripe reading

ID TECH MiniMag readers capture magnetic stripe data in either swipe direction. Their 90 mm housing fits counters, kiosks and fixed installations, with configurable output for compatible host applications.

MiniMag II configurations offer USB, RS232 or keyboard-wedge connections. MiniMag Duo variants add a second magnetic head so a card can face either way in the slot; the exact interface and track configuration depend on the part number.
