Atmel TK5530 Transponder Datasheet
The document describes the Atmel TK5530, a complete plastic cube transponder designed for immobilizer and identification systems. It integrates a read-only IDentification Integrated Circuit (IDIC) with an antenna tuned to a nominal carrier frequency of 125 kHz.
Key features include a 128-bit PROM storing unique codes via laser-programmable fuses, Manchester or Bi-phase encoding options, and operation within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. The datasheet provides specifications for inductance, resonance frequency, magnetic field strength requirements, and ordering information for both standard and customized versions.
