Series 2000 radio antenna released
New from Texas Instruments is the Series 2000 radio antenna. As an interface between a TI-RFID transponder and the data processing unit, it sends an energising signal to the transponder, modulates the RF signal to send data to the transponder, receives the identification signal, and processes it for digital decoding, writes ManufacturingIT.
"Together with the associated Remote Antenna Tuning Board, it allows the use of up to 120 meters of symmetrically shielded antenna cable between an antenna and the reader unit," the article states.
The system comprising the Series 2000 and the Remote Tuning Box enables them to be connected to antennas located at a distance of up to 120 meters.
