Hardware Connection
The RX of the module is connected with the TX of the upper computer, and the TX of the module
is connected with the RX of the upper computer. The IRQ signal can be connected with the middle
fracture or IO port of the upper computer.
To reduce the system standby power consumption,when the upper computer needs to use the
fingerprint module,then power on the main power supply of the fingerprint module. At this time,
the fingerprint module is powered on,and complete the corresponding instructions sent by the upper
computer.When the upper computer does not need to use the fingerprint module, disconnect the
fingerprint module from the main power supply.
When the upper computer is in standby mode, in order to keep the finger touch detection, the touch
power supply needs to be powered all the time. The working voltage of the touch power supply is
3V~5V, and the average current of the touch power supply is about 2uA. When there is no finger
touch, the default touch sensing signal outputs high level; When a finger touches, the default touch
sensing signal outputs low level. After detecting the touch sensing signal, the upper computer
supplies power to the fingerprint module and the fingerprint module starts to work.
The maximum response time of the touch function is about 120mS @vt =3.3V. When the module is
not touched, the recalibration period is about 4.0sec; the touch signal output is CMOS output, and
the output voltage is roughly the same as the input voltage.
Serial communication protocol
The mode is semiduplex asychronism serial communication. And the default baud rate is 57600bps.
User may set the baud rate in 9600
~
115200bps
。
Transferring frame format is 10 bit: the low-level starting bit, 8-bit data with the LSB first, and an
ending bit. There is no check bit.
Power-on delay time
At power on, it takes about 50ms for initialization. During this period, the Module can’t accept
commands for upper computer.After completing the initialization, the module will immediately
send a byte (0x55) to the upper computer, indicating that the module can work normally and
receive instructions from the upper computer.
Power Supply Requirements
The power supply is DC +3.3V. The power input is allowed only after the R503 is properly
connected.
Electrical components of the R503 may be damaged if you insert or remove the cable (with the
electric plug) when the cable is live. Ensure that the power supply is switched off when you insert
