OR8400 supports EPC class1 Gen2/ ISO 18000-C. The maximum RF output power is 30.0dBm. The typical sensitivity is -84dBm at 30dBm output power. OR8400 supports auto sensitivity improving technology. It can improve more than 10dB sensitivity. In summary, the R2000 RFID chip was chosen because it provided the very best basic performance. The RF section was optimized by using a circulator. Thus, the combination of the R2000 chip and circulator based RF section with auto sensitivity improving technology provides the very best performance possible. Therefore, OR8400 is superior to all other R2000 base designs. 2 Hardware Block Diagram OR8400 can be controlled via USB interface. OR8400 can connect 4 antennas via R/P TNC connectors.

[2] The OR8400 module may be considered as a single electronic component. It is designed so that all the internal components have safe margins to their thermal limits when the heat spreading plate (bottom) does not exceed 70°C. The heat spreading plate temperature must not exceed 70 degrees C. Heat sinking will be required for high duty cycle applications. 5 Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
