ETC ZMD41201

ZMD41201
ISO 15693 Read/Write Wireless Tag IC
Features
Description
♦ Passive transponder with on-chip energy storage
capacitor, hence no external supply buffer
capacitor is needed
The ZMD41201 is a fully integrated 13.56 MHz ISO
15693 compliant wireless tag transponder circuit. The
on-chip EEPROM can be written in downlink direction
and read in uplink direction by inductive coupling from
a reader. The power is also extracted from the reader
through inductive coupling. Due to the on-chip tank
capacitor, the ZMD41201 only needs an external coil.
♦ Operating at 13.56 MHz with on-chip tank
capacitor
♦ Anti-collision capability
♦ Communication range up to 1 meter
♦ 2k bits of wireless-programmable EEPROM
The chip extracts its clocks from the incoming 13.56
MHz oscillation and the data from the envelope of the
oscillation. Data is transmitted by load-modulating the
incoming magnetic field.
♦ On-chip rectifier and voltage limiter
♦ ISO/IEC 15693 compliant
