| Description
GK4001 is a contactless transponder integration circuit chip. The chip that runs batteryless operations receives power and transmits signals through an external coil placed in a magnetic field provided by a corresponding device. 64 bits of data preprogrammed in an EPROM array are sent to the corresponding device repetitively when the chip is in the field range. The serial output data contains a 9-bit header, 40 bits of data, 14 parity bits, and a stop bit. The way to modulate the output data uses Manchester Coding, with a bit rate corresponding to 64 periods of the field frequency. To obtain the chip function, an external coil is required and
in parallel an external capacitor is adjusted
Operating Configuration
L=4.05mh,C=390pf
