DESCRIPTION
The Texas Instruments' low-frequency (LF) reader provides all the functionality required to communicate with
Texas Instruments 134.2 kHz LF transponders which are available in a variety of form factors.
The Series 2000 Control Module (CTL) is the interface between a TI-RFid™ Radio Frequency Module and a
controlling host. The CTL controls the transmitting and receiving functions of an RFM module such as the
RI-RFM-003B, RI-RFM-007B or RI-RFM-008B according to the commands from the host to send signals to and
receive data from a TI-RFid™ LF transponder. It converts the received RF signals to the transponder's
identification number, checks the validity and handles the conversion to the standard RS232 (RI-CTL-MB2A) or
the RS422/485 (RI-CTL-MB6A) serial interface protocol.
The CTL in combination with an RFM module is well suited for usage in a broad range of applications including,
but not limited to, access control, vehicle identification, container tracking, asset management and waste
management applications
