Using a card reader that was purchased for $1.50 Mondo Technology used a PIC12F675 to bring it to life. “The unit provides the magnetic head on a spring mechanism along with low level head signal amplifiers and data slicers. Three signal lines comming from the unit provide card presence, clock, and data. When actively reading a card, it draws about 50ma of current at 5 volts.” |

Hi David,
Sure you could do that but then the card that is swiped will have different numbers than the one presented, possibly even a different type (Visa instead of Master Card). What you would need to do is use a Reader/Writer unit. Read the card to be cloned and write it to the target card.
Something like this should do:

If you look around you should be able to find cheaper ones, note that I have no idea of the quality of this one (I just searched for one).
