1.0 INTRODUCTION
The DLP-RFID1 is a low-cost, USB-powered module for
reading from and writing to ISO 15693, ISO 18000-3, and
Tag-it™ intelligent RFID transponder tags. It has the ability to
both read and write up to 256 bytes of data in addition to
reading the unique identifier (UID/SID). All of the DLP-
RFID1’s electronics and antenna reside within the compact
unit, and all operational power is taken from the host Windows/Windows CE/Linux PC via the
USB interface. The range of the internal antenna is up to 4 inches depending upon the size of
the transponder tag used.

2.0 APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT
The Retail Box version of the DLP-RFID1 ships with a programming library (on CDROM) for
reading the serial number of a single tag. The library will work with any Windows programming
language that supports ActiveX controls. Demonstration software is included that shows how to
use the library in C++, Delphi, and Visual Basic programming languages.
A Professional Developer’s Library is also available as a separate purchase that allows for the
reading of multiple tags, writing and reading the available user memory, and other available
features of the transponder tags in use.
3.0 REGULATORY AGENCY CONSIDERATIONS
3.1 AGENCY IDENTIFICATION NUMBERS
Compliance with the appropriate regulatory agencies is essential in the deployment of all
transceiver devices. DLP Design is in the process of obtaining modular approval for this RF
product such that an OEM need only meet a few basic requirements in order to utilize their end
product under this approval. Corresponding agency identification numbers are listed below:
Part Number US/FCC CAN/IC
DLP RFID1 SX90RFID1 5675A-0RFID1
3.2 INTEGRAL ANTENNA
The DLP-RFID1 is approved for use with the integral antenna only. Modifying the DLP-RFID1’s
PCB antenna or modifying the PCB to utilize an external antenna will void all agency
compliance.
3.3 FCC/IC REQUIREMENTS FOR MODULAR APPROVAL
Any changes or modifications to the DLP-RFID1’s printed circuit board could void the user’s
authority to operate the equipment.
3.4 WARNINGS
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference
that may cause undesirable operation.
www.dlpdesign.com sales@dlpdesign.com © 2006 (Preliminary Data)
This device is intended for use under the following conditions:
1. The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna.
2. The module is approved using the FCC “unlicensed modular transmitter approval” method.
As long as these two conditions are met, further transmitter testing will not be required.
However, the OEM integrator is still responsible for testing their end product for any additional
compliance measures necessitated by the installation of this module (i.e. digital device
emissions, PC peripheral requirements, etc.).
Note: In the event that these conditions cannot be met (i.e. co-location with another
transmitter), then the FCC authorization is no longer valid and the corresponding FCC ID may
not be used on the final product. Under these circumstances, the OEM integrator will be
responsible for re-evaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a
separate FCC authorization.
3.5 OEM PRODUCT LABELING
The final end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following text:
“Contains TX FCC ID: SX90RFID1”
3.6 RF EXPOSURE
In order to comply with FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, the antenna used for this
transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.
3.7 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FOR OEM INTEGRATORS
The end user should NOT be provided with any instructions on how to remove or install the
DLP-RFID1.
