7.3 4090A10 HF Antenna
Figure 15: 4090A10 HF Antenna
The 4090A10 HF antenna has an impedance of 50Ω and is optimized for operation
with a 50mm ribbon cable. The antenna is tuned for a free air environment.
7.3.1 Mechanical Data
Detailed drawings are available at the iCLASS SE Reader micro-site.
7.3.2 Typical Read Ranges with Standard Transponders
The following read ranges are for indication only. The read range of a transponder
may vary significantly depending on antenna size and quality factor. Table 17:
4090A10 HF Antenna with Standard ID1 Transponders shows tested card self-
resonance frequency to provide an indication for the antenna design difference.
For these read range tests, the transponder serial number was read. No cryptographic
operations were performed.
