EM-18 RFID Reader Module

Interfacing EM-18 RFID reader with Arduino Uno

Arduino Uno is an opensource physical computing platform based on ATmega328 microcontroller and provides a development environment for writing software for the board. It can be used for a variety of projects. EM-18 RFID reader is one of the commonly used RFID reader to read 125KHz tags. It features low cost, low power consumption, small form factor and easy to use. It provides both UART and Wiegand26 output formats. It can be directly interfaced with microcontrollers using UART and with PC using an...

Interfacing EM-18 RFID reader with Raspberry Pi

RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) uses electromagnetic fields to read, monitor and transfer data from tags attached to different objects. It is not necessary that the cards are to be in visibility of the reader, it can be embedded in the tracked object. The tags can be actively powered from a power source or can be passively powered form the incoming electromagnetic fields. EM-18 RFID reader module is one of the commonly used reader and can read any 125KHz tags. It features...

RFID : Radio Frequency Identification

What is RFID or Radio Frequency Identification ? How it Works ? Radio Frequency Identification is a term that used to describe a wireless system that used for Automatic Identification and Tracking, it uses Radio Frequency electromagnetic fields to transfer data from tag attached to an object. Unlike UPC (Universal Product Code) Bar Code, this technology doesn't need line of sight communication and it can be read through clothing, human body or any non metallic materials. Therefore it is an excellent replacement for...
