Introduction 1.1 Description The Brady BDC2000 RFID Assembly consists of a Brady Daughter Card (BDC2000), a PCB Antenna Board (ANT2000) and a U.FL cable connecting BDC2000 to the ANT2000 PCB. The diagram below shows the Brady BDC2000 RFID Assembly and its connection to a host such as a printers main control board. Host Host SPI bus SPI bus 5VDC 5VDC GND GND Brady Brady Daughter Daughter Card Card U.FL cable U.FL cable Brady Brady Antenna Antenna Board Board Figure 1. Block Diagram of Brady BDC2000 RFID Assembly and its Connection to a Host The Brady BDC2000 RFID PCB has a radio module and MCU for control. The radio module communicates to an HF RFID tag that is located in proximity to the ANT2000 antenna board. The information from the RFID tag can be acquired by the host through the SPI bus. The host also provides 5VDC and ground to the BDC2000 RFID PCB. 9 1.2 Specification The Brady BDC2000 RFID Assembly specification is provided in Table 1. Table 1.

A photo of the Brady BDC2000 RFID Assembly is shown in Figure 2. 10 Figure 2. photo of the Brady BDC2000 RFID Assembly As is shown in the picture, the Brady BDC2000 RFID PCB has four mounting holes at the corners of the PCB. The holes center-to-center distances are 40mm and 70mm respectively. The holes size is 4mm in diameter. These four holes can be used for mounting the BDC2000 RFID PCB. The Brady ANT2000 antenna PCB can be mounted with a custom plastic piece. A cautionary note: The presence of metal in close proximity to the antenna loop will affect the normal operation of the radio and should be avoided. 11 2.1 Connections There are four connectors on the BDC. The U.FL connector for connecting a U.FL cable to the antenna board. The 6-pin JST B6B-PH-K-S connector for SPI, GND, and 5VDC. A separate 2-pin JST B2B-PH-K-S connector for 5VDC and GND. A dual row 10-position header (Samtec FTSH-105-01-L-DV) for debugging and downloading firmware to the BDC2000 RFID PCB. Note: The usage of the 2-pin connector is optional. If the 5VDC and GND are in the 6-
pin connector, then the 2-pin connector can be left unused. The signal designations of the connectors are listed in Tables 2 to 4.

BDC2000 SPI Configuration Setting 100 KHz Slave 8 Full LSB (Little Endian) 0 (Data latched at Rising Edge of the Clock) Parameter Clock Speed Master/Slave Number of Bits for Transmitting a Byte Duplex Bit Direction SPI Transmission Mode The Brady BDC2000 RFID PCB acts as an SPI slave. It reads ISO15693 compliant tags and converts and transmits the data to the SPI master upon request from the SPI master. Firmware read out from the BDC2000 RFID PCB is inhibited. Attempting to read out firmware will result in automatic erasure of flash program memory. RFID configuration uses hard coded constants. Settings are locked down and are not configurable.
