The 16-Channel UHF RFID Reader Board is an embedded multi-antenna reader module designed for smart cabinets, automated lockers, tool management systems, medical consumables management and other compartment-based RFID inventory applications. Operating in the 860-960 MHz UHF band and supporting EPC Class 1 Gen 2 / ISO 18000-6C, the board uses a 16-channel antenna architecture to provide multiple controlled RFID reading points from a compact embedded platform. It operates from a 5V DC power supply and communicates with the host controller through a TTL interface.
RF output power is software adjustable from 3-20 dBm with ±0.2 dB flatness, and the typical read distance is up to approximately 0-50 cm per channel depending on the antenna, tag, RF setting and installation environment. This controlled short-range architecture is suitable for cabinet and compartment applications where antenna placement and RF power can be tuned to reduce cross-reading between adjacent zones. SDK and development resources are available for host integration, antenna polling control and embedded inventory system development.
