What's the recommended solution for those of us who want to read at the reader's full power (and so can't power from USB), and who have standard Arduinos?hi, I am a buyer of Taiwan,would like to ask you a few questionsThe board is assembled as shown in the majority of the pictures (it does not come with the Redboard or with the headers), but everything has been soldered and the board has been tested. Also, are there any compatible tag, smaller than the ones suggested (WRL-14147)?Can anyone tell me the resolution of the RSSI, and approximately how far linearly you need to move a tag before any difference in signal strength is detectable?Hi, So, when powering it at 5V, I've tried two different bidirectional logic level converters, to try to interface it to the GPIO serial pins. The orientation of the tag makes a big difference. I spent a few extra minutes removing solder unnecessarily because I thought I had accidentally bridged a connection between SJ1 and SJ2. I m using it as an Arduino shield, without external antenna. I have recently purchased this module and I'm having some issues. I owned other pcb unit, programing is easy and support is best fit for me.I have two gripes with this component.

The node will be an m6e module with a pro micro. can't find it anywhere. As mentioned earlier, I will bring this up for future design considerations.Here are some alternative options: Depending how you lay out your PCB you would will need to re-characterize your 50 Ohm micro strip to get the max power output from your PCB or u.FL antenna connection.Excellent, although I'm going to start out with your breakout board just to be sure. (So, next time I have time to work on my project, I'm going to try using an external power supply; hopefully that will fix it.) Arduino library to control the M6E-Nano RFID module from ThingMagic to read Smart Trac Moisture Data Question 2.

First of all, unlike the low frequency rfid tags, high frequency tags with anticollision are fairly expensive. I'm getting only 1-2 cm distance of reading. I suggest they should probably just sell this part without the built in antenna? My project that I used this for was to use python in a Raspberry Pi to interface with this reader using an external antenna up to a distance that would cover a normal traffic lane. Yes indeed I managed to get a higher distance but the reading is inconsistent.

Release anything derivative under the same license. I want to use it on ESP32 board.Have u figure out a way to connect this to ESP32? So I have following question.The antenna design came from ThingMagic. But it only takes a second to bring each new tag into and out of the field.Will this read implantable glass capsule tags (I think 125 kHz, though not sure)? I'm using the module with and Arduino uno and I'm not able to get a higher distance. Would you agree? Raspberry Pi 3b+, USB to USB-Micro cableThis is mostly a great board. For large orders please email customerservice@sparkfun.com and they can help you out with more information. How far distance the reader can read the tag?I just did a little bit of unscientific testing with mine, and with the power set to 500 centi-dBm (i. e. 5 dBm), and using the built-in antenna, it appears that the tag has to be within 1 centimeter of the PCB antenna to read. It also doesn't mention anything about PCB trace antenna. I just reorder it. (I'm using it with Mercury API on a Raspberry Pi.) As long as the item is in stock it should ship in a day or two, the rest depends on your shipping method and your countries customs process.Does it seem strange that the buzzer is connected between digital pins 9 and 10, rather than between a digital pin and ground? The SparkFun Simultaneous RFID Reader is an Arduino-compatible board to get you started with the M6E Nano UHF RFID Reader. (Prevents issue of CRC error with no method of recovery.)") IF SO AND BOARDED PROPERLY, WOULD IT WORK USING THE FTDI CONNECT AND WINDOWS SOFTWARE OUT OF THE BOX OR DOES IT NEED PROGRAMMING TO ACCOMPLISH THAT?We have no plans to sell the module alone, but we don't do any programming of the module.So essentially, if you had the module, you'd only need the left hand part of your schematic 'RFID module' and an FTDI adaptor to run that windows gui, yes?Essentially, yes, that's all you need. A basic guide to getting started with the RFID Tag Reader breakout and how to read and write multiple RFID tags over multiple feet!
I verified the firmware to be 1.7.1.2 and was able to read tags without an issue.Next I used the Example2_Read_EPC that comes in the library. I modified Sparkfun's library and used it but it did not work. While our technical support team is very dedicated to offering the highest level of service that we can, at the same time they are a small department of 7 technicians that handle cases in the order in which they were received.Engineers gave wrong voltage to the board. I believe the noise introduced by USB power significantly degrades the range of the unit with both external and internal antenna. I'll try the high-gain antenna soon. Presumably with an external antenna, that distance would be farther, but I don't know how much farther, since I haven't been able to buy the external antenna yet.Is the RFID module in combination with the WRL-14131 antenna in addition to FCC also ETSI conform?
