1. Description
The ATA5575 is a contactless read/write identification IC (IDIC
®
) for applications in
the 100-kHz to 150-kHz frequency band. A single coil connected to the chip serves as
the IC’s power supply and bi-directional communication interface. The antenna and
chip together form a transponder or tag.
The on-chip 128-bit user EEPROM (16 bytes with 8 bits each) can be read and written
byte-wise from a base station (reader). Data is transmitted from the IDIC (uplink) using
load modulation. This is achieved by damping the RF field with a resistive load
between the two terminals Coil 1 and Coil 2. The IC receives and decodes serial base
station commands (downlink), which are encoded as 100% amplitude modulated
(OOK) pulse-interval-encoded bit streams.
The ATA5575 is an EEPROM-based circuit. It is optimized for maximum read range.
Programming is also possible, but the write range is limited.
The chip has to be locked after loading the application-specific data into the device.
Until the enable bits are set properly, the ATA5575M1 transmits all digits “0” in unique
format. Typical applications run at 125 kHz.
