Elatec expands the Development Board for RFID modules

I/O Extender

Munich (Germany), 27June 2017– Elatec RFID Systems, manufacturer of RFID reader/writer modules, presents an expansion for the TWN4 MultiTech Nano Development Board: the I/O Extender. It provides additional interfaces. The expanded Development Board provides RFID solution developers with an environment in which they can use the TWN4 MultiTech Nano multi-standard RFID reader module, which covers all current 125kHz, 134.2kHz and 13.56MHz RFID technologies. The TWN4 MultiTech Nano measures only 31 x 17.8 x 2.5mm and is also single-sided, making it particularly well suited for surface mounting. It can be directly soldered to a printed circuit board or mounted with connectors.

Elatec is providing an optional expansion with additional interfaces for its TWN4 MultiTech Nano Development Board: Omron and Wiegand for time-tracking and access control, as well as the CAN bus and RS485/RS422 interfaces that are common for industrial applications. The expansion to the Development Board features an LC display, an I²C temperature sensor and a relay for switching peripheral devices on and off. Naturally, like the board to which it is attached, it also features LEDs to indicate whether commands have reached the right interfaces.
