Base Board for EM-18/μRFID (RS232,USB,TTL) - rhydoLABZ

The RFID Base Board is compatible with EM-18, micro RFID module and other modules with similar pinouts. It provides TTL, RS232 and USB interfaces for the RFID module. Module can be powered either via USB, DC barrel jack or the RMC connector provided onboard. The detected tag data can read over DB9 connector (RS-232), USB port or the RMC pins (TTL Serial out or Wiegand 26 out, as per selection). The base board can be connected to the USB port of a PC with the CP2102 driver installed, allowing the Windows applications to communicate with the Reader module via allocated COM port. With the appropriate EM-18/μRFID  module fitted, it is a complete “ready-to-use” RFID system which can be used as the base board for evaluation. It can also be used as an embedded board in application circuits of access control systems and all for in-circuit evaluation.

NOTE: No RFID reader module is included in this package, compatible reader module is available here
