LONG DISTANCE RFID READER

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC1101, CC1200

E2e

We have a customer that needs to create a RFID reader net to monitor movement of animals. They read TI's “Navigating your way through the RFID jungle” paper and concluded that the Passive UHF method is the best for the solution, with the 30ft range. They have access to purchase UHF tags (ISO18000-6c compatible). The table on the page 7 identifies CC1101 and CC12xx as the TI technology.  Would any of these radios be capable of reading UHF tags?  If not, can you recommend a reader solution for this application?

 

Thanks for your help.

  • John, 

    We do not make devices specifically targeted for the RFID reader space, that being said I am aware of one company that is using our CC1200 to develop an RFID reader and this reader is in the market today. We do not make the software for the RFID protocol either, this company has made everything them selves.

    The company is called TSS Company and they are from Europe. I just went to their website and it looks like it has been hacked, at least the TI IT-security system did not like it.

  • Hi Thomas,
