HITAGTM2 Transponders

1 FEATURES

• Identification Transponder for use in contactless applications

• Operating frequency 125 kHz

• Data transmission and supply energy via RF link, no

internal battery

• Reading distance same as writing distance

• Non volatile memory of 256 bits (128 bits user data,

128 bits control data/secret memory) organized in 8 pages, 4 bytes each

• 10 years non-volatile data retention

• >100000 erase/write cycles

• Selective read/write protection of memory content

• Two coding schemes for read operation:

Biphase and Manchester coding

• Effective communication protocol with outstanding data integrity check

• Mutual authentication function

• Read/write mode allows:

– plain data transmission (password check) – encrypted data transmission (crypto mode)

• In read/write mode multi-tag operation possible because of special HALT-function

• Emulation of standard industrial read-only transponders: – Public Mode A

(MIRO and transponders from µEM (H400x))

– Public Mode B

(according to ISO 11784 and ISO 11785 for animal identification)

– Public Mode C (PIT compatible mode)

HT2 DC20 S20

2 GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The HT2DC20S20 is a high performance transponder for bi-directional transmission in half duplex mode between read/write device and transponder.

Data are stored in the transponder in a non-volatile memory (EEPROM). The transponder requires no internal power supply; it derives its power from the magnetic component of the RF carrier frequency generated by the reader. Data are transmitted by modulating this carrier.

The HT2DC20S20 is dedicated for use in secure access systems where the transponder and the reader have to identify each other. The choosable use of cryptography enables highest data security. Providing several operating modes (password, crypto, standard read only modes) the versatile transponder can be used in various applications. The possible use of an installed reader base for read only transponders makes the additional use of HT2DC20S20 or the replacement of read only transponders by HT2DC20S20 very easy.

The HALT-command can be used after finishing data exchange to reach the halt-state. In this state the transponder is muted. This feature can be used to have steady RF field where single transponders are collected one by one. Each transponder is operated and then disabled so it does not interfere with the next transponder. The halt-state can only be exited by switching off/removing the magnetic field.

The EEPROM has a capacity of 256 bits and is organized in 8 pages of 4 bytes. The 8 pages are split up into 4 pages containing user data and into 4 pages for control of the memory access and for authentication purposes.

The pages of the transponder memory can be protected against read or write access by setting corresponding memory flags.

Absorption modulation is used to transmit data from the transponder to the reader. The transponder absorbs the magnetic field which hence modulates the current in the reader antenna. Data transmission to the HT2DC20S20 uses binary pulse length modulation (BPLM).
