1.2 Specification The Brady BDC2000 RFID Assembly specification is provided in Table 1. Table 1. Specification of Brady BDC2000 RFID Assembly BDC2000 RFID PCB Radio Fundamental Frequency 13.56 MHz ISO Standard ISO 15693 Type of Modulation Amplitude Antenna Type PCB Loop Antenna 50 OHM Antenna Impedance 50 OHM Number of Channels One Operation Range (M) 0.
2. Installation A photo of the Brady BDC2000 RFID Assembly is shown in Figure 2. Figure 2. photo of the Brady BDC2000 RFID Assembly As is shown in the picture, the Brady BDC2000 RFID PCB has four mounting holes at the corners of the PCB. The holes’ center-to-center distances are 40mm and 70mm respectively. The holes’ size is 4mm in diameter. These four holes can be used for mounting the BDC2000 RFID PCB. The Brady ANT2000 antenna PCB can be mounted with a custom plastic piece.
2.1 Connections There are four connectors on the BDC. • The U.FL connector for connecting a U.FL cable to the antenna board. • The 6-pin JST B6B-PH-K-S connector for SPI, GND, and 5VDC. • A separate 2-pin JST B2B-PH-K-S connector for 5VDC and GND. • A dual row 10-position header (Samtec FTSH-105-01-L-DV) for debugging and downloading firmware to the BDC2000 RFID PCB. Note: The usage of the 2-pin connector is optional.
3.0 Operation The Brady BDC2000 RFID PCB SPI configuration is shown in Table 5. Table 5. BDC2000 SPI Configuration Parameter Clock Speed Master/Slave Number of Bits for Transmitting a Byte Duplex Bit Direction SPI Transmission Mode Setting 100 KHz Slave 8 Full LSB (Little Endian) 0 (Data latched at Rising Edge of the Clock) The Brady BDC2000 RFID PCB acts as an SPI slave. It reads ISO15693 compliant tags and converts and transmits the data to the SPI master upon request from the SPI master.
