EM18 RFID Reader

EM18 RFID Reader is a compact and cost-effective RFID module that operates at 125 kHz for contactless identification applications. It uses UART or Wiegand communication protocols to transmit data, making it easy to integrate with microcontrollers like Arduino, PIC, and STM32. The module can read RFID tags within a range of 5 to 10 cm, making it ideal for access control, attendance tracking, and inventory management systems. It requires a 5V power supply and features a built-in antenna for stable RFID tag detection. The EM18 module outputs data in a 12-character format, which can be processed easily using software. It is commonly used in security systems, electronic toll collection, and smart door locks. The compact and lightweight design ensures easy installation in embedded systems. The module provides a fast response time for quick scanning of RFID tags. It is widely used in automation projects, asset tracking, and authentication systems. The EM18 is compatible with various RFID cards and tags operating at 125 kHz. Its simple interface allows seamless integration into industrial and commercial applications.
