1 Introduction The PCIe M.2 Module that comprises a completely in integrated solution for EPC Gen 2 / ISO18000-63 (formerly 18000-6C) application. The PCIe M.2 Module was developed to make embedding UHF RFID reader capability easy. The PCIe M.2 Module builds on market-leading Indy reader chip technology and integrates all of the necessary components into a tiny package. It requires very few external components. Model Number RU00-M06-X002 Supported Regions Operating Frequency US 902.75MHz~927.
2 Regulatory Statement Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement 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. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. This device is intended only for OEM integrators under the following conditions: 1) The antenna must be installed such that 20 cm is maintained between the antenna and users, and 2) The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna. As long as 2 conditions above are met, further transmitter test will not be required.
3 System Block Diagram An example of a PCIe M.2 Module system-level block diagram for an embedded application is shown in Figure 1. Required connections: VCC and GND are required to power the PCIe M.2 Module. RF pin must be connected to the OEM antenna. USB 2.0 provides host communications to control the operation of the PCIe M.2 Module. Recommended connections: LED1#: This signal is used to allow the add-in card to provide status indicators via LED devices that will be provided by the system.

7 Interfacing to the PCIe M.2 Module Power and Ground All circuits on the PCIe M.2 Module are powered from inputs at pin 2, 4, 70, 72 and 74. The PCIe M.2 Module operates with any supply voltage between 3.135 and 4.4V, The Power pins follow PCIe M.2 design rule. Communication The PCIe M.2 Module has one USB 2.0 ports. The USB are compatible with a standard USB 2.0. The user’s host processor issues IRI commands to the HOST USB, which can be configured for any standard USB 2.0. RF The PCIe M.
8 Operating the PCIe M.2 Module Once the required hardware connections are made to the PCIe M.2 Module, the unit can be operated with simple software routines running on the OEM’s host processor. The host software issues commands to configure the reader, set the reader’s idle mode and to start and stop various Gen2 RFID reader operations. An example of the sequence of events starting at reader power-up is: 1. Apply 3.135V~4.4V power to the PCIe M.2 Module. 2.
