1 A minimum Quality factor is required in order for the reader to recover the transponder signal. The maximum
quality factor is not limited, since the transponder signal is picked up even.
2 Antenna driver current is dimensioned, so as to guarantee that for Zant, within the specified range, the antenna
driver can act as a perfect current source to drive the resonant circuit.
For a typical Zant~ωL*Q = 1kOhm (e.g. L= 67uH, Q=19), and MODU at 1V, MLX90109 will force 4V antenna
amplitude, therefore should supply 4mA current amplitude on the first harmonic sine wave.
Duty cycle is 50%, therefore the equivalent DC current consumption for such a system is 1.3mA.
3 Power up is realized by forcing a current into MODU through the external correction network. This will release
an internal strap to VDD of the MODU pin.
4 The MLX90109 goes in power down mode when the MODU pin is brought to VDD.
5 Voltages below Vmodumin, may cause the antenna Voltage to drop below VSS+0.3V. This will degrade the
performance of the current driver. There is always a slight overshoot of the antenna voltage due to the antenna
resonance.
6 Since the modulation is realized by altering (∆duty )the duty cycle around the 50% value, the driver current
setting influences directly the modulation depth, as Moddepth=Zant*Idrive*∆duty.
