Long Distance RFID 134.2khz Animal Ear Tag Temperature Chip Reader Module

High-concerned chemical: None Origin: Mainland China Attention: If you need to read the temperature of animal tags, you first need to confirm whether your animal chip has temperature measurement function. Not all animal chips have temperature measurement capabilities. Before purchasing, it is necessary to confirm the type of animal chip you have, as this module does not support HDX tags. Product Overview This is a low-frequency RFID read module compliant with the ISO 11784/85 standard protocols. It operates at frequencies of 134.2 kHz and 125 kHz, supporting FDX-B, EMID, and compatible tags. A key feature is its ability to read temperature data from FDX-B glass transponder tags. Utilizing a UART communication interface and supporting the Modbus RTU protocol, it offers both active and passive read modes. The module read range of up to 60 cm, a compact form factor, simple operation, and ultra-low power consumption, making it ideally suited for embedding into devices such as AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle) readers and PDAs . Key Technical Parameters Parameter Specification Operating Frequency 134.2 kHz, 125 kHz Compatible Tags FDX-B standard tags, EMID and compatible cards, FDX-B temperature sensor glass tags Temperature Measurement Range: -40°C to 85°C; Accuracy: ±0.03°C Serial Communication Default: 19200 bps, Even Parity, 1 Stop Bit (Configurable); Interface: TTL UART (3.3V) Operating Modes Active Read (Continuous/Single Output) & Passive Read (Command-Triggered) Protocol & Networking MODBUS-RTU over RS485; Default Address: 03 Advanced Feature Supports RAW data output for FDX-B protocol additional data Power Supply 3.3V – 5.5V; Operating Current: Max. 220mA; Standby Current: 0.3mA Read Distance Up to 60 cm (max); >12 cm (AGV landmark tags); >20 cm (Animal ear tags) Read Speed 30 ms Operating Temperature -40°C to 80°C Storage Temperature -40°C to 80°C Dimensions 37 mm x 32 mm Indicators Built-in LED for read status; Support for external buzzer or relay drive Pin Definition The data and antenna interfaces use 2.54mm pitch pin headers. Pins can be soldered for a permanent connection or used with a pluggable socket. VCC: Power Positive (3.3V to 5.5V) GND: Ground / Power Negative ON/OFF: Active High Enable Pin TXD: UART TTL Output (3.3V) RXD: UART TTL Input (3.3V) LED: Indicator Output (can drive an external LED, buzzer, or relay with a driver circuit) ANT1: Antenna 1 ANT2: Antenna 2 Communication Protocol Description Active Read Mode: The module continuously scans for cards. Upon detecting a valid card within its effective read range, it automatically outputs the card number and other relevant data frames via the UART interface. It can be configured to output the card number only once or to output it continuously while the card is present. Passive (Slave Response) Read Mode: This mode adheres to the MODBUS-RTU format. Each module on an RS485 bus has a unique address (theoretically supporting up to 255 modules on a single bus). The host controller polls the modules. A module only responds to a read command when its specific address is called by the host. Key Features & Applications High Compatibility: Supports major low-frequency tag formats, including specialized FDX-B temperature sensor tags . Long Read Range: Excellent penetration and performance stability enable a read distance of up to 60 cm . Flexible Integration: Small size, simple UART interface, and MODBUS-RTU protocol support simplify integration into various systems and host controllers like PCs or PLCs . Dual Operating Modes: Offers both autonomous active reading and command-controlled passive reading for flexible application design. Low Power Consumption: Features ultra-low power draw, especially in standby mode (0.3mA), making it suitable for portable devices . Typical Applications: AGV positioning and navigation, animal management (e.g., pig, cattle, sheep), automated production lines, material handling, vehicle management, and asset management .
