MLX90109EDC-AAA-000-TU Application Field and Working Principle

MLX90109EDC-AAA-000-TU is a passive radio frequency identification (RFID) tag device category that falls under the RF Access, Monitoring ICs family. The device, issued by Melexis Technologies, is a low-cost RFID tag that is easily integrated with industrial, consumer, and industrial systems. It is a 916 MHz module that can be used in systems that require constant monitoring or access control. Due to its low cost, it is an ideal device for applications in the automotive, industrial, and medical industries when progressive access control and information monitoring is needed.

The MLX90109EDC-AAA-000-TU is an autonomous, one-time device that features a temperature stable CMOS RF transceiver that is optimized for use in the 916 MHz frequency band. The tag’s physical dimensions are roughly 4.73 inches in length and 1.5 inches in width. An integrated antenna is provided on the device to allow a maximum communication distance of up to 10 meters when connected to the reader. The tag can be powered by a 3-Volt coin-shaped cell battery or alternatively powered by a RF-energizing reader.

The main purpose of MLX90109EDC-AAA-000-TU is to provide access and monitoring information in a system. It is composed of a 64-bit passive/active RF Transceiver with a maximum communication range of 10 metres, and a 2-fold antenna that is integrated with the device. The tag includes an EEPROM memory size with 8K bits. It also consists of a 32-bit MCU which has the ability to modify the write protection for both blocks and cells.

MLX90109EDC-AAA-000-TU operates using the radio frequency 916 MHz. To ensure its optimal operation in the 916MHz frequency band, the Melexis tag contains a phase-locked loop (PLL) integrated circuit that is capable of providing a reliable and consistent response at variable frequencies. This makes it suited for applications that require multiple readers that are unique to each system configuration or environment.

When it comes to security, the MLX90109EDC-AAA-000-TU has several features available. It has 4 ÷ 16 different passwords for increased security, allowing for access control using different passwords and confidential information. In addition, the tag also uses an integrated AES128/256-bit cipher system with a 256 bit key for encryption/decryption of data.

Furthermore, the MLX90109EDC-AAA-000-TU features a low-power CMOS RF transceiver in the 916 MHz frequency band. The tag also features a smart power management system that adjusts its energy usage depending on the task, with the ability to switch between different frequencies and aspects. With this power management system, it consumes very little power relative to what is available. This makes the tag suitable for applications that require energy efficiency.

Finally, the tag is also well-suited for performance-driven applications. As a low-cost tag, it is capable of achieving reliable performance in applications that require precision and accuracy, such as access control or monitoring in hospitals, retail stores, and other public settings.

In summary, the MLX90109EDC-AAA-000-TU passive RFID tag is an excellent choice for applications requiring low-cost access control and monitoring in the 916 MHz frequency band. It is equipped with features and capabilities such as a 64-bit passive/active RF transceiver, a low-power CMOS RF transceiver with an integrated antenna, 256-bit encryption/decryption capability, and 4-16 passwords that allow for greater security and access control. With its power management system, it is an ideal device for competitive applications that require energy efficiency.
