EM4095
Read/Write analog front end for 125kHz RFID Basestation
Description Data transmission by Amplitude Modulation with
The EM4095 (previously named P4095) chip is a CMOS externally adjustable modulation index using single
integrated transceiver circuit intended for use in an RFID ended driver
basestation to perform the following functions: Multiple transponder protocol compatibility
(Ex: EM4102, EM4200, EM4450 and
- antenna driving with carrier frequency
EM4205/EM4305)
- AM modulation of the field for writable transponder
Sleep mode 1µA
- AM demodulation of the antenna signal modulation
USB compatible power supply range
induced by the transponder
40 to +85°C temperature range
communicate with a microprocessor via simple interface. Small outline plastic package SO16

CDV2 When the antenna quality is high using configuration of
figure 6 or 7 the voltage on antenna can arrive in the
range of few hundred volts and antenna peak current may
exceed its maximum value. In such a case the capacitive
Fig. 6
divider ratio has to be high thus limiting the sensitivity. For
such case it is better to reduce antenna circuit quality by
Read/Write mode (Low Q factor antenna) adding serial resistor. In this way the antenna current is
lower and thus power dissipation of IC is reduced with
RDY/CLK
practically the same performance (Fig. 8).
