PT30 Postal Tag 1 1.1 RFID-LSCAN INTRODUCTION Purpose The purpose of this document is to describe the functionality and operation of the PT30 tag intended for use in a RFID system custom designed for International Post Corporation. The tag features reflect the application requirements. You can find more details into “PT30 Functional Specifications”. 1.2 Definitions Valid LF Field – A 125 kHz carrier signal modulated OOK with a signal carrying the exciting device identification number (ExID).
PT30 Postal Tag 3.1 RFID-LSCAN Modes of operation Postag PT30 has several main modes of operation: sleep, LF excitation recognition, UHF transmission and programming. The sleep mode is the normal mode of operation. In the sleep mode, only the LF receiver is powered up and the total current consumption is less than 5uA. When a LF signal is detected by the LF receiver, it wakes-up the microcontroller to check if this signal has a valid modulation pattern.
PT30 Postal Tag RFID-LSCAN Programmer UP23 box. If a tag enters LF field but the valid excitation pattern can not be recognized (i.e. overlapping fields or interference), the tag does not transmits anything. 4 REGULATORY COMPLIANCE This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
