RFID reader
For common RFID standards
Elatec RFID Systems presents two new members of its TWN4 MultiTech product family. TWN4 MultiTech 2 LF supports all common RFID standards in the 125 kHz and 134.2 kHz frequency ranges, while TWN4 MultiTech 2 HF (image) supports the 13.56 MHz standards including NFC.
The two versions of the TWN4 Multi-Tech 2 replace the TWN3 RFID readers from Elatec. Like these, the new boards are a lightweight version of the manufacturer's universal reader modules, but also benefit from the further development of the high-end modules in terms of programmability.
The number of interfaces has been increased compared to its predecessor: In addition to USB and RS232, the PCB now has 5V TTL, I2C, Wiegand, Clock/Data and four GPIOs.
The readers are available as a PCB measuring 76 x 49 x 9 mm or ready-installed in a desktop reader housing. A special feature that reduces the configuration effort in large projects is the centralized (re-)configuration of the readers via the network. This means that already integrated devices do not have to be individually dismantled and reassembled after the changeover. In addition, the TWN4 MultiTech 2 HF can be (re)configured via the air interface using a contactless configuration card (TWN4 CONFIG Card). cs
