Indy R1000 Reader Chip—Features and Benefits

The highly integrated Indy reader chips and supporting software deliver the building blocks for a full range of UHF Gen 2 RFID readers, from short-range embedded modules to long-range dock door readers.              

The Indy R1000 reader chip:

• Incorporates complete UHF Gen 2 standard transmit, receive, demodulation, and baseband functions
• Integrates up to 90% of the components in a discrete reader design, providing for significantly smaller reader designs
• Lowers design complexity, cuts manufacturing costs, and increases reliability
• Enables longer battery life for handheld readers, power over USB for short range readers, and Power over Ethernet (PoE) for high performance, long range readers
• Supports EPCglobal Gen 2 and ISO-18000-6C specifications, regional regulatory requirements and the full 840-960 MHz band
• Supports low-level diagnostics, remote management and provisioning, and easy integration
• Includes protocol firmware, programming tools, radio drivers and schematics to enable quick time-to-market

Indy R2000 Reader Chip—Adding Performance

The Indy R2000 reader chip addresses challenging RFID applications. It advances the R1000 design with:

• Enhanced read accuracy and range via carrier cancellation technology
• Increased protocol configurability and access to advanced radio features
• Improved transmit phase noise to ease support for global regulatory requirements
