EV-GM-00 Thing Magic Gemini Evaluation Kit HF RFID module

The ThingMagic. Gemini is for OEM designers requiring maximum customizability in an RFID module that reads and writes to MIFARE and NFC protocols, including capabilities for NFC peer-to-peer and NFC tag emulation (ISO 18092). The Gemini supports the mutually authenticated Triple Data Encryption Standard (3DES) encryption, ideal for applications in product authentication and consumable protection (i.e. anti-counterfeiting).

It is  outfitted with 4 General Purpose Input Output (GPIO) pins; other available interfaces include micro USB for direct connection to a USB host, Common Blade Interface, the software adjustable host interfaces UART (TTL), SPI and I2C, and the capability to attach an external antenna for greater read range. With a form factor approximately the size of a match book, the Gemini is a powerful, cost-effective embedded RFID solution for OEMs requiring a simple and intuitive API and accelerated time-to-market.
