BDUR-002 mid-range UHF RFID reader released

Austriamicrosystems and Beedar Technology have announced the release of the BDUR-002 mid-range UHF RFID reader.

This is the first in a range of EPC Class 1 UHF Gen 2 readers by Beedar, all of which will incorporate the AS3990 UHF RFID Simply Gen2 reader IC.

The AS3990/91 Simply Gen 2 is a single chip, EPC Class 1 Gen 2 UHF reader IC.

Ideally targeted for power- and cost-sensitive applications, the AS3990 includes an EPC Class 1 Gen 2 protocol engine for fast time to market, and is available with an integrated power amplifier to further reduce the bill of material.

Its simplicity is emphasised with only 32 registers to enable full RF, filtering, and protocol control.

The AS3990 and AS3991 is available in a QFN 64 9 x 9mm package and is specified for -45deg to +85C.
