ThingMagic Micro Embedded RFID Module Developer Kit

The Micro Developer Kit is designed to meet the demands of high performance RFID handheld, mobile, and stationary readers. This embedded UHF RFID Reader offers two antenna ports and supports the ability to transmit up to +30 dBm for demanding applications. The edge connections for signals, power, and RF allow the module to be soldered directly to a motherboard as a standard component. The on-board connectors allow the module to be mated to a motherboard as an add-on option. This developer kit is the perfect way to make the most of your M6e-M Micro reader module.

NOTE: This product is a reader module – NOT a finished RFID reader – and is meant for OEM and developers to embed into products or to be used in the creation of a new finished reader. If you are interested in an existing finished reader product, check out our line of finished ThingMagic readers.

Why buy this module?

The M6e-M Micro reader module enables you to build a reader with the perfect balance between convenient size, flexibility of use, and raw RF power. The module unit can be soldered directly onto a motherboard as well be used with on-board connectors to allow the module to be simply mated to a motherboard.

The associated reader module enables you to build a reader with serial and USB interfaces to support both board-to-board and board-to-host connectivity. The module development kit gives you everything you need to connect to a PC and start reading tags. The Mercury API is loaded on your host processor so you can write software to control the module in the DevKit chassis. The Mercury API supports the entire line of ThingMagic finished readers and embedded RFID modules.

Full schematics of the DevKit are available to support building of your own application-specific reader. The Universal Reader Assistant reduces complexity for novice users but still allows for low-level control for advanced developers by enabling testing and tuning of reader settings, antennas, and tags for your workflow.

Features

  • Support for two monostatic RF antennas
  • 28 solder-down, board-edge connections or Molex low profile connector
  • Separate read and write levels, command adustable
  • UART and USB 2.0 control/data interfaces
