An evaluation board for the ANDY100 UHF RFID IC, has been introduced by Farsens. The chip harvests radio frequency energy from commercial UHF RFID readers and communicates with them using EPC C1G2 standard commands. Featuring an SPI master, the chip enables battery-free wireless sensors and aculators. 

The Spider evaluation board includes the ANDY100 chip and a start-up circuit to allow developers to work directly with SPI sensors or connect an MCU of their choice for further processing.

The evaluation board can also be used to test multiple sensors, actuators or other devices. By balancing power consumption against read range, developers can easily test or prototype different ideas and create proof of concepts that can later be implemented into final products.
