ThingMagic Micro High Performance, Multi-Protocol 2-Port, Embedded UHF RAIN RFID Module ThingMagic Micro is one of the smallest 2-port, multi-protocol, high performance embedded UHF RAIN RFID modules. ThingMagic Micro delivers the size, operating efficiency, power, and flexibility needed to embed UHF RFID into applications where small form factor is important. Its exceptionally small size and powerful performance yield increased efficiency, reduced development costs, and time-to-market advantages. 46 mm L x 26 mm W x 4.0 mm H ThingMagic Micro can read up to 750 tags per second and Features & Benefits: features low power consumption. Its wide RF output level range, from -5 to +30 dBm (1 W), allows it to be used in short range Small Form Factor Coupled printers or long range readers. Its antenna ports make it easy to with Powerful Performance embed into demanding applications. It is equipped with UART and USB 2.0 control/data interfaces. RF Power Output of +30 dBm Results in Tag Read Distance Over 9 ThingMagic Micro has flexible mounting options, with both edge Meters pads, for soldering the module directly to a motherboard and a Molex connector for board-to-board connections. The two RF Support for EPCglobal connections to the antennas can be made via edge pads or Gen2V2 (ISO 18000-63) U.FL connectors. Protocol Optional Protocols: ThingMagic Micro is supported by ThingMagic API. AEI ATA, IP-X and ISO 18000-6B Applications: Reads up to 750 Tags/ Second to Support Fast Handheld Devices and Scanners Moving Tags and Large Mobile/Portable Tag Populations Stationary Battery-operated Configured for Multiple Regions, such as FCC RFID-Enabled Printers, Desktop and Portable (North & South America), Tag Commissioning Stations ETSI (European Union), Point of Sale Devices and other Regions Smartphone Accessories including India, China, Korea, Australia and Japan ThingMagic Micro Ordering Information Module M6E-M Development Kit M6E-M-DEVKIT Physical Dimensions 46 mm L x 26 mm W x 4.0 mm H (1.8 in L x 1.0 in W x 0.16 in H) Tag / Transponder Protocols RFID Protocol Support EPCglobal Gen 2V2 (ISO 18000-63) with DRM.
