General Description

Module description
The HF RFID Reader Module is a flexible read/write module with a high distance detection range. It has an integrated coil antenna (magnetic near field) and can read up to 20 tags simultaneously, increasing productivity. The module provides a simple interface for host products.

Module features

  • Flexible HF read/write module with high distance detection range
  • Integrated coil antenna (magnetic near field)
  • Multi-tag reading of up to 20 tags ensures increased productivity
  • Provides simple interface for host products

Qualified personnel

Only appropriately trained and qualified personnel may carry out the mounting, installation, commissioning, operation, maintenance, and dismounting of the product. The personnel must have read and understood the instruction manual and further documentation. Prior to using the product make yourself familiar with it. Read the document carefully.

Environmental conditions

Operating or storing the module outside the specified range may damage the module. To reach full temperature range, a potting will be needed for end product, which allows better cooling of electronic.

| Absolute maximum rating| Operation temperature (with non-transmission periods)| Operation temperature (Continuous transmission mode)| Storage temperature

Module components

The radio module consists of 2 assembled PCBs with electronic components and an integrated coil antenna. On the electronics PCB, multiple shields are used to cover RF-sensitive parts. The host system is connected via a 2x8Pin connector. Additional LEDs may be connected to the module for visualization of module state.

Interfacing of module

The interfacing of the module is made in the host product, which provides the typical 24V supply to the module. Also, the digital interface of RFID reader is interfaced via serial interface at CMOS Levels. The housing of the module is designed to be able to contain the host product as well and a variable amount of external connectors.

Product Usage Instructions

  1. Make sure that only appropriately trained and qualified personnel carry out the mounting, installation, commissioning, operation, maintenance, and dismounting of the product.
  2. Prior to using the product, make yourself familiar with it. Read the instruction manual and further documentation carefully.
  3. Operate or store the module within the specified range to avoid damage to the module and incorrect operation of desired module functionality.
  4. If you need to use the module outside the specified range, use potting for the end product, which allows better cooling of the electronic to reach the full temperature range.
  5. Connect the host system via a 2x8Pin connector to provide a typical 24V supply to the module and interface the digital interface of the RFID reader via the serial interface at CMOS Levels.
  6. The housing of the module is designed to be able to contain the host product as well and a variable amount of external connectors.

General Description

Module description

The module operates in the 13.56MHz HF frequency range and is optimized for use in industrial applications involving high distances. The device reads and writes passive tags in line with ISO 15693. The module can be used in the United States and Canada. The module is compliant with the relevant transmission regulations. The user can add LEDs to monitor the status of the module. The module has a typical detection range of around 30cm. This range is determined by the tag used and can be adjusted by configuring the transmission power. Other range influencing factors include the transponder size, the setup and installation of the specific application and the surrounding materials, particularly metal. For the actual read and write distances under real conditions, the combination of module and tag must be tested in the desired application. The radio module can be interfaced to various industrial busses by host product.
