General
The Micro-reader is an intelligent module providing RF and Control functions to read
and program TIRIS transponders. It is equipped with a Serial Communications Interface (SCI) which may be directly connected to commonly used system controllers.
The Micro-reader works together with a 47 µHenry, low-Q antenna, and therefore the
system does not need tuning.
Figure 1: Micro-reader Module
1.2
Product Description
The Micro-reader module is a plug-in module which can be plugged into or soldered
onto an application specific adapter board. It supports serial data communications
between a PC and TIRIS transponders. With its Serial Communications Interface
(SCI) the Micro-reader supports TTL data communications, which with the addition
of a communications driver (for example: RS232 or RS422) allows communication to
a standard interface.
The Micro-reader can be controlled remotely by either providing certain inputs with
the corresponding voltage level or sending commands to the SCI. It can be driven
either with or without synchronization - the synchronization can be either wireless or
wired to enable reliable operation in multi-reader environments. Two outputs show
the reader status and inform the user about a successful command execution. The
Micro-reader supports all available TIRIS LF transponders.

1.2.1
Chapter 1. Product Description
Power Supply
There are two separate 5V supplies to the Micro-reader, one for the output stage
(VSP) and the other for the logic (VSL). On power up VSL should rise faster than 0.1
V/ms to ensure a reliable operation. The Micro-reader has an on-board reset circuit
which will reset it should the supply fall below 4 V (± 0.2 V).
In order to avoid problems with noise conducted via the supply lines, we recommend
that if a single supply is used, separate connections from a common de-coupling capacitor are used to feed the Micro-reader.
Note:
The RF Module must not be supplied by Switched Mode Power Supplies (SMPS). This is because most SMPS operate at frequencies
around 50 kHz. The harmonics of the generated field can interfere
with the TIRIS receiver. Therefore only use linear regulated power
supplies, or SMPS with a fundamental operating frequency of 200
kHz or higher.
1.2.2
Antenna
The Micro-reader has been designed for use with a 47 µH antenna with a Q of 10 to
20 to generate the exciter frequency of 134.2 kHz. Because of the low Q the system
does not need to be tuned.
WARNING:
CARE MUST BE TAKEN WHEN HANDLING THE MICRO-READER AS
HIGH VOLTAGES ACROSS THE ANTENNA PINS COULD BE HARMFUL
TO YOUR HEALTH.
1.2.3
Synchronization
There are two possible methods of wired synchronization:
1. Connect a pulse waveform to all RDEN- input pins of the Micro-readers to be
synchronized. The pulse would normally be at VSL, dropping to GND for 100 µs
every 200 ms.
2. Connect all SYNC outputs to an 'Or' and then connect this as an input to RDENof each Micro-reader to be synchronized.
Wireless synchronization of the Micro-reader is very effective at synchronizing to adjacent readers, however problems may occur if the antennas are positioned such that
a transponder can be within range of two readers at the same time. In this situation
one reader could synchronize with the transponder instead of the other reader.
When the WLSC input is active the Micro-reader is in wireless synchronization mode.
Wireless synchronization can also be switched on/off by a corresponding command
via the serial interface. During execution of this command it has priority over the
WLSC input. After the command execution the status of the WLSC input will be considered again.
Micro-reader - Reference Guide
May ’00
Note:
It is not recommended to have both wired and wireless synchronization switched on as synchronization could be unreliable.
We recommend the use of bus drivers for wired synchronization with
other Micro-readers and to prevent ESD damage.
Wired or wireless synchronization prolongs the cycle time by typically
20 ms.
1.2.4
Trigger Mode
When the Micro-reader is in idle mode it is possible to trigger a single charge-only
read with a power burst duration of 50 ms by taking the RDEN- pin to logic high for
100 µs. The single read will start on the falling edge of the 100 µs pulse.
If a transponder command is sent to the Micro-reader via the SCI while RDEN- is in
a logic high state (waiting position), a falling edge would trigger execution of the command. In waiting position the Micro-reader can only store one command. This means
that if two commands were to be sent to the Micro-reader while it is in the waiting position the second command will overwrite the first one.
1.2.5
Continuous Mode
When the CRDM input is active the Micro-reader goes into continuous charge-only
read mode using a power burst duration of 50 ms. The serial data input takes priority
over the CRDM input such that if a serial command is received it will be executed
regardless of the state of the CRDM input. After the execution of the serial data command the Micro-reader continues with the previous read mode.
In the default continuous read mode, only those valid RO, R/W or MPT IDs that differ
from the previously read ID; or valid IDs read after a “NO READ”, are transferred via
the SCI (Normal Mode). The Micro-reader can be set to transfer all valid IDs that are
read (Line Mode) by means of a corresponding serial data command.
Without synchronization the Micro-reader has a reading frequency of approximately
10 readouts per second using a power burst duration of 50 ms. Timing is given in
more detail in section 3.2.
1.2.6
Serial Communication
The two serial I/O pins are configured for 9600 Baud, 1 start bit, 8 data bits, no parity
and 1 stop bit; they can be connected directly to a communications driver to allow a
half duplex communication with a PC via its serial communications interface (for example: RS232 or RS422).
The communications protocol is specified in Chapter 2.
Handshake
The Micro-reader accepts handshake commands Xon/Xoff. When it receives an Xoff
(13hex) the Micro-reader stops its current operation and stops transmitting data via
the serial port. It stays in idle mode until Xon (11hex) is received when it continues with
the previous mode/command. During this idle period the Micro-reader accepts commands via the serial port, however, it waits for its execution until Xon is received. In
this idle period the Micro-reader can store only one command.
May ’00
Chapter 1. Product Description
Note:
While receiving a command protocol from the serial port Xon/Xoff is
interpreted as normal data without affecting the serial communication.

Pin Connection Description
SYNC (1)
Output for wired synchronization. This output is at GND level until
the Micro-reader starts its read cycle, at which time it goes to VSL
until the complete reading, programming or locking cycle is finished.
RDEN- (2)
Input for wired synchronization. Taking this pin to VSL acts as a
hold-off for the Micro-reader's output stage preventing it from
transmitting until the input returns to GND. The Micro-reader only
samples this input at the start of its own reading, programming or
locking cycle, this means that if the input goes to VSL after a cycle
is started, the cycle is not interrupted. RDEN is a high impedance
input and must be tied to GND via a suitable resistor (27 kOhm)
when it is not being used.
When the Micro-reader is idle it is possible to trigger a single read by
taking the RDEN-pin logic high for 100 ms. The single read will start
on the falling edge of the 100 ms pulse.
RESET- (4)
Taking this pin to GND holds the Micro-reader in reset. If the reset
pin is not used it can be left disconnected as it is internally pulled up.
Minimum pulse duration to perform a reset is 1 ms. After a reset the
10

processor takes between 28 ms and 132 ms (typically 72 ms) before
it can receive new instructions via the serial communications
interface.
RXD (5)
Input configured to receive serial data commands at 9600 Baud, 1
start bit, 8 data bits, no parity and 1 stop bit.
TXD (6)
Output configured to transmit serial data at 9600 Baud, 1 start bit, 8
data bits, no parity and 1 stop bit.
GND (15, 25)
Pins 15 and 25 are ground for the logic part.
ANT1 (16)
Antenna pin for the connection of 47 µH, low Q antennas.
ANTCAP (17) It is possible to use antennas of lower inductance by connecting a
suitable capacitor between ANT1 and ANTCAP. This additional
capacitor (ceramic, 100 VDC) will be in parallel with the 30 nf
resonance capacitor on board the Micro-reader (see Figure 4 and
Appendix C).
ANT2 (19)
Antenna pin (GND) for the connection of 47 µH, low Q antennas.
GNDP (21)
Pin 21 is ground for the output stage.
VSP (22)
Pin 22 is for connecting the positive supply voltage (5 V) for the
output stage.
VSL (24)
Pin 24 is for connecting the positive supply voltage (5 V) for the logic
part.
CRDM (26)
Supplying pin 26 with a logic high signal causes the Micro-reader to
run in a continuous charge-only read mode (see section 1.2.5 for
more information).
When the CRDM pin is tied to logic low, the Micro-reader is in an idle
state waiting for commands via the serial interface or for a trigger
signal (RDEN-) to start a single read out cycle. CRDM is a high
impedance input and must be tied to either VSL or GND via a
suitable resistor (27 kOhm).
WLSC (27)
Pin 27 enables or disables wireless synchronization. To enable the
wireless synchronization, pin 27 must be taken to VSL. When
wireless synchronization is enabled, the Micro-reader will try to
synchronize its transmit signals with any other readers in range. To
disable wireless synchronization pin 27 must be taken to GND. Pin
27 is a high impedance input and must be tied to either VSL or GND
via a suitable resistor (27 kOhm).
Wireless synchronization can also be switched on/off by a
corresponding command via the serial interface. During execution of
this command it has priority over the WLSC input.
OKT (29)
This output is set to logic high for approx. 60 ms if a valid
transponder was read. It can be connected to an LED externally to
indicate the result of the read cycle.
STAT(30)
Pin 30 is set to logic low when the RF-transmitter is activated.
Supplying an external LED with this signal makes the status of the
Micro-reader visible.

If bit 2 (FBCC calculation) and bit 6 (Data) are set, the Micro-reader automatically calculates a two byte BCC over the data to be sent to the transponder and adds it to the
protocol. When bits 2 and 6 are set the PC must not send the 2 byte FBCC to the
Micro-reader.
Bit 4 (Power Pause Duration) is for future use and must not be set when addressing
standard TIRIS transponders.

*) If the status indicates 'Reserved', the read data cannot be interpreted as identification data.
Note:
It is strongly recommended to verify whether the requested function
has actually been carried out in the transponder by checking the Read
Address. If a 'not reliable' response message is received, the command must be sent again to guarantee transponder data retention.

Antenna Design
Appendix C: Antenna Design
C.1
Introduction
This appendix gives an example of how you could construct an antenna to work with
the micro-reader. It also provides information about calculating the Q factor and
adapting the inductance range.
The antenna properties should be:
Q factor less than 20
Inductance between 46 and 48 µH
Recommended maximum size 200 mm x 200 mm
C.2
Antenna Construction
Item List:
Item
Description
Quantity
Enamelled solid copper wire, 0.2 mm
2.1 g
Tape, 10 mm wide
20 mm
Block cloth tape, 12 mm wide
0.12 m
Spiroband, 3 mm diameter
0.24 m
Screened antenna lead
1m
Method:
Wind 15 turns of item 1 with a diameter of 75 mm.
Leave about 50 mm free at the ends, cross the wires (at the +/- 50 mm point)
and secure them together using the tape (item 2).
twist the spriband (item 4) onto the coil that you have just made, leaving the
start and finish ends free.
Strip the insulating braid back at the end of the antenna lead (item 5). Wrap
the start and finish ends at least three times around the bared ends and solder
the joints (the polarity is not important).
Tightly bind the soldered joints to the spriband using the cloth tape (item 3).
This method should result in a 47 µH antenna with a quality factor of
approximately 17 - 18.

Q Factor
If the antenna’s Q factor exceeds 20:
1. The output capacitors will be overloaded and long term damage could result.
2. The antenna may still be resonating when the response from the transponder is
received. Without built-in damping the data will not be correctly received.
3. The antenna may be detuned if there is any metal in the area.
The following formula provides an approximate method of calculating the Q factor of
the antenna:
2πfL
Q = -----------R
Where:
= 134200 Hz (Frequency = 134.2 kHz)
L = Inductance (henry)
R = Series resistance (ohm)
Example:
The inductance (L) = 47µH.
The resistance (R) = 2.2 Ohm.
2 × π × 134200 × 0.000047
Q = ----------------------------------------------------------------2.2
39.636
= -----------------2.2

Adapting the Inductance Range
If your antenna is outside of the required inductance range of 46 to 48 µH, you can
adapt it to work with the micro-reader by adding an external capacitor to it, either in
series or in parallel. You can use this external capacitor to change the inductance
range by ± 5 µH.
You can work out the total resonance capacity using the following formula:
C tot = 1 ⁄  4π L Ant f 


If the antenna inductance is less than 46.1 µH you can add an extra capacitor (externally) to the antenna between pin 16 (ANT1) and pin 17 (ANTCAP). The formula to
work out the value of this capacitor is:
C ext = C tot – 30ηF
If the antenna inductance is more than 47.9 µH you can add an extra capacitor in series with the antenna between pin 19 (ANT2) and the antenna. The formula to work
out the value of this capacitor is:
----------- = ----------- – -------------C ext
C tot 30ηF
