Revision History Version Description Date V1.0.0 Initial release. May 13, 2013 Added the pinout information of the host interface connector on EM3080-01 V1.0.1 July 30, 2014 (USB Version) in Chapter 4.
Chapter 1 Introduction Overview NLS-EM3080 series embedded 2D barcode scan engines, armed with the Newland patented computerized image recognition system, bring about a new era of 2D barcode scan engines. The EM3080’s 2D barcode decoder chip ingeniously blends technology and advanced chip design &...
Chapter 2 Installation General Requirements ESD protection has been taken into account when designing the EM3080 and the engine is shipped in ESD safe packaging. Always exercise care when handling the engine outside its package. Be sure grounding wrist straps and properly grounded work areas are used. Dust and Dirt The EM3080 must be sufficiently enclosed to prevent dust particles from gathering on the imager and lens.
Installation Orientation The following figure illustrates a front view of the EM3080 after installation, with the engine’s decoder board on the top, and illumination and lens on the front. Optics Window Placement The window should be positioned properly to let the illumination and aiming beams pass through as much as possible and no reflections back into the engine (reflections can degrade the reading performance).
If the window is required to be in a tilted position, the above distance requirements should be met and tilt angle should ensure no reflections back into the lens. Window Material and Color Illumination wavelengths and CIS’s responsiveness (mainly to wavelengths of red light)should be taken into consideration when choosing window material and color, in order to achieve the possible highest spectral transmission, lowest haze level and homogeneous refractive index.
Ambient Light The EM3080 shows better performance with ambient light and it is well able to handle the flicker in fluorescent lights using 50-60Hz AC power. However, high-frequency pulsed light can result in performance degradation. Eye Safety The EM3080 has an LED what creates the aiming and illumination beams. The LED is bright, but testing has been done to demonstrate that the engine is safe for its intended application under normal usage conditions.
Mounting The illustrations below show the mechanical mounting dimensions for the EM3080. The structural design should leave some space between components. Front View (unit: mm) Left View (unit: mm) Bottom View (unit: mm)
Chapter 3 Electrical Specifications Power Supply Do not power up the EM3080 until it is properly connected. Be sure the power is cut off before connecting a flexible cable to or disconnecting a flexible cable from the host interface connector. This could damage the engine.

Dimensions of the Host Interface Connector The EM3080’s host interface connector is a 12-pin ZIF socket which can be used to connect a host device with a flat flexible cable. The following figure shows the dimensions of the socket. (unit: mm) Flat Flexible Cable A 12-pin flat flexible cable can be used to connect the EM3080 to a host device.
USB COM Port Emulation: The USB port on the host device is emulated as a serial port with the same data transmission and configuration as a real serial port. A driver is required. USB DataPipe:This protocol is defined by Newland. A driver is required when using this protocol to communicate with scanner. ...
Trigger Driving the nTrig pin (PIN 12) on the host interface connector low causes the EM3080 to start a scan and decode session. If barcode is decoded, the EM3080 waits for the voltage at the nTrig pin to turn high (or the trigger to be released) after sending the data to the Host.
Beeper The EM3080 provides a pin (Buzz, PIN 9) on the host interface connector that provides a PWM output to an external driver circuit for generating audible feedback to the user to indicate statuses like power up or good decode. The PWM output is not strong enough to drive a beeper, thus a beeper driver circuit is needed.
Chapter 5 Development Tools The EVK is provided to help users to test and evaluate the EM3080, which contains beeper & beeper driver circuit, LED & LED driver circuit, trigger & reset buttons, TTL-232 to RS-232 converter & TTL-232 to USB converter, RS-232 & USB interfaces, etc. The EM3080 can be connected to the EVK via a 12-pin flat flexible cable.
