Engineering Brief

The ATA5577M3 is a highly versatile 125 kHz LF RFID transponder IC featuring configurable modulation schemes and data rates. It supports emulation of multiple legacy LF RFID protocols including EM41xx, Hitag, and T5557 formats, making it ideal for backward-compatible deployments. With 330 bits of user-programmable memory and password-protected read/write operations, it provides flexible security for access control, asset tracking, and identification applications. The chip operates across an industrial temperature range and is available in multiple package options for both card and tag implementations.

Typical Applications

  • Access control systems
  • Animal identification and tracking
  • Automotive immobilizer systems
  • Industrial identification and asset tracking
  • Loyalty and membership cards
  • Consumable authentication
