How does MAGICSTRAP® work on PCB?

MAGICSTRAP® recognizes the ground plane as a dipole antenna

Efficient Easy Embedding

Embed MAGICSTRAP® into the PCB and make it invisible

Embedded MAGICSTRAP (R) without booster Antenna

+ no layout modification needed+ protection of Magicstrap (R)+ cost efficient+ very early use of RFID

o read/write range limited (< 2cm)- location limited to edge of PCB

Solution 1 - Antennaless

Embedded MAGICSTRAP (R) with galvanic connection to booster antenna

+ protected+ cost efficient+ early use of RFID

+ ground plane can be used as antenna

+ long read/write range possible- integration in layout necessary- location limited to edge of PCB

Solution 2 – With Booster

Possibilities

• Use the technology of Beta LAYOUT– Purchase the factory automation

Manufacturer: Schmoll Maschinenhttp://www.schmoll-maschinen.de/nc/en.html

– Or acquire license to use their patented technology and develop own automation
