RI-ANT-S02C-00

Rfid Antennas Overview

The RI-ANT-S02C-00 is a Series 2000 RFID stick antenna manufactured by Texas Instruments, designed for low-frequency applications. It operates at a frequency of 134.2 kHz and features an integrated cable with a length of 0.1 meters. The antenna utilizes a ferrite rod construction to achieve typical inductance values of 27 µH at the operating frequency. It is engineered for reliable performance within an operating temperature range of -30°C to +70°C and a storage temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

• Integrated 0.1-meter cable for direct connectivity
• Designed for robust environmental stability across specified temperature ranges

Rfid Antennas Applications

• Low-frequency RFID reader systems
• Industrial automation identification
• Access control hardware integration

Rfid Antennas Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific suffix '-00' corresponds to the 0.1-meter cable configuration as documented in the Series 2000 Antennas datasheet. Confirm compatibility with the target RFID controller's impedance requirements at 134.2 kHz. Ensure the procurement channel provides official Texas Instruments documentation to validate the ferrite rod specifications and electrical characteristics against the design needs.

Rfid Antennas Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact, pre-assembled stick antenna is required for 134.2 kHz RFID applications. The integrated short cable simplifies mechanical installation compared to discrete components. Consider the operating temperature limits (-30°C to +70°C) to ensure suitability for the intended environment. Compare against other Series 2000 variants if different cable lengths or form factors are necessary for the system layout.

Rfid Antennas Part Context

This part belongs to the Texas Instruments Series 2000 Antennas family, which provides standardized passive RFID antenna solutions. These antennas are typically used in conjunction with TI's RFID transceivers and readers. The series includes various configurations such as stick, loop, and PCB-mounted options, all tailored for LF and HF frequency bands to support diverse industrial and commercial identification protocols.

Rfid Antennas Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other models from the Texas Instruments Series 2000 line, such as the RI-ANT-S01C, which may differ in cable length or physical dimensions. Verify that any replacement maintains the 134.2 kHz resonance and similar inductance characteristics to ensure system compatibility without redesigning the matching network.
