ThingMagic Nano
Embedded UHF RFID Module
ThingMagic Nano delivers the smallest form factor for a Mercury Series embedded
UHF RFID module with very low power consumption and is ideal for battery operated,
low cost, small form-factor portable readers. ThingMagic Nano’s wide RF output range
(0 dBm to +27 dBm) is important for the read/write requirements for RFID-enabled
printers and tag commissioning stations. It features a surface mount package designed
for the efficiency of SMT manufacturing, driving down the total cost for embedding
RFID in volume applications, including handheld devices, consumables authentication,
device configuration and access control.
