3 Connectors 3 Connectors TWN4 MultiTech Core has several connectors on-board. There are three connectors (A, B and C) which connect either to a carrier board or to a host. Furthermore, there is a antenna connector and a optional position for placing a coaxial connector.
3 Connectors • Mating part (crimping socket): Hirose DF11-8DS-2C • Mating part (crimping contact): Hirose DF11-22SC (22 AWG) 3.2 Connector B Pin Name Function Ground Unregulated input to on-board voltage regulator VREG 3.3V output from on-board voltage regulator 3.3V power supply input RESET- Low active TTL input with internal pull-up resistor for hard reset.
3 Connectors Pin Name Function COM2_RX- Low active TTL input with internal pull-up resistor of asyn- chronous RXD to COM2. COM2_TX- Low active TTL output (push/pull) of asynchronous TXD from COM2. Res. This pin is reserved for future purposes. Res. This pin is reserved for future purposes.
3 Connectors 3.6 Jumpers There are several jumpers on-board of the TWN4 Core Module. Depending on the requirements these jumpers can be soldered together. Jumper Function The function is identical to pins A6 and A8. If J1 is closed, the RS232 interface is turned on and the host channel is assumed to be RS232.
4 Using PI Option 4 Using PI Option To use the PI Option, e.g. to read the PAC bits from an iCLASS transponder, a SIO processor is needed. This can be either a SIO chip which is soldered directly on a PCB or a SAM card incorporating the SIO processor.
6 Power states and current consumption breakdown 6 Power states and current consumption breakdown The TWN4 Core Module supports 2 power states that can be used to reduce the current consumption of the reader when the application calls for it. In Normal state the reader can accommodate a request to search for a high-/low-frequency tag or interact with peripherals on short notice;...
