RFID operating frequency

Post by achillis1 »

Hello,

I have the e-blocks RFID board and I would like to know if there is a way to attach or link an antenna that works with 433.92Mhz.
I have in my possesion an industrial RFID tag, which is ultra long range and it would be grate if I could manage it via Flowcode.

Thank you.

Hello Achillies,

Here is a list of all the RFID modules that are compatible with the RFID E-Block.

Hello Ben,

Thank you for the reply and the link.

I was wondering regarding the e-blocks rfid board the following: if an extra antenna can be attached working at 125Khz then can I attach a 433.56 antenna and read rfid tags working at that frequency?
I have in my possesion one rfid tag from Wavetrend and it works in that frequency. Of course the tag works with battery support in order to achieve up to 75m, thus the 433.56Mhz.

Thank you.

Hello,

I doubt that the high frequency will work directly on our E-Block.

Do you know how the 433MHz antennas are normally done? I would image that at this high frequency you would need a specific circuit coil like the 13MHz coil is currently laid out on our E-Block. The 125khz antenna is detachable because the coil of wire is cheap to make and suits the lower frequency.
