product line, is an ultra compact reader
for low power, high performance RAIN RFID applications.
With programmable output power from 10dBm to 30dBm, the reader can detect tags at more than 5 mt of
distance (depending on antenna and tag dimensions).
Due to its low power consumption, the module is specifically designed to be easily integrated in battery
powered devices.
The radio frequency core of the module is based on the Impinj E710 IC that permits to achieve fast reading
speed and to be used in dense reader and dense tag environments for top-class rated performances.
The compactness of the device and the surface mount technology allow to embed the Lepton
7
inside the new
small form factor industrial handhelds, smartphone accessories and other compact form factor devices.
The Lepton
7
complies with and can operate in both European and US regulatory environments and, thanks to
its multiregional capabilities, it’s ideal for integration in devices requiring compliance to different geographical
regions.
The Lepton
7
is pin-to-pin compatible with the Impinj RS1000 and RS500 modules making it a perfect
replacement for these devices.
