    TSL® have used decades of industry leading mobile RFID experience to design and manufacture a family of high performance, energy efficient UHF RFID modules that can be easily integrated into OEM applications such as mobile/battery powered devices or small, fixed reader applications.

    The compact and slim form factor of the 3117 module provides flexible mounting options, supported by industry standard USB and serial UART port interfaces combined with four configurable 3.3V I/O lines. A 50 Ω antenna connection provides the freedom to specify an external antenna perfectly tuned to your unique application.

    This class-leading module supports multiple RF modes including High Sensitivity Mode and Dense Reader Mode (DRM), plus High Speed Tag Acquisition Mode and the latest anti-collision recognition algorithms, enabling read rates of ≥ 1200 tags/s. Software programmable output power allows the conducted output to be configured in 0.1 dBm steps from 1 up to the regulatory maximum.

    TSL’s STORM RFID protocol (a sophisticated, parameterised set of commands that carry out multiple actions locally within the RFID module) makes embedded integration a breeze, reducing time-to-market and development costs. Multiple complex tag operations can be executed using simple pre-configured commands.
    TSL provides the free, comprehensive STORM Protocol SDK, allowing development in C, C# and Java languages on platforms including .NET, Android, Windows and Linux.
