TriMag provides three identical MagStripe decode channels in a footprint less than 6.5mm square. Decoding operations are fully contained with no external decoding components required. The decoded track data are buffered in internal RAM. MagStripe signals from 3mVpp to 1Vpp are read using a fast adaptive AGC, which compensates for real world cards with magnetic or mechanical stripe damage.

General Information:
• Operating temperature range from -40C to +85C 
• Low power sleep mode current <60μA with 3V  supply
• Low power operation during read decoding  <3mA
• Card Present or SPI Status Byte for indication for MagStripe data
• Automatic Gain Control for magnetic signal range from 3mV to 1V
• TriMag is a RoHS compliant component

Features:
• Simple to integrate & cost effective decoding solution
