1 KBit Read/Write Contactless Identification Device
Description
The EM4450/4550 is a CMOS integrated circuit intended
for use in electronic Read/Write RF Transponders. The
difference between EM4450 and EM4550 is that EM4550
are bumped and has megapads for the two coils. The chip
contains 1 KBit of EEPROM which can be configured by
the user, allowing a write inhibited area, a read protected
area, and a read area output continuously at power on.
The memory can be secured by using the 32 bit password
for all write and read protected operations. The password
can be updated, but never read. The fixed code serial
number and device identification are laser programmed
making every chip unique.
The EM4450/4550 will transmit data to the transceiver by
modulating the amplitude of the electromagnetic field, and
receive data and commands in a similar way. Simple
commands will enable to write EEPROM, to update the
password, to read a specific memory area, and to reset
the logic.
The coil of the tuned circuit is the only external component
required, all remaining functions are integrated in the chip.
