A reed switch is a sensor that closes a circuit in the presence of a magnetic field. Read sensors can be used in many applications that require non-contact on / off. However, because reed switches are fragile when used directly, this module makes the sensor easier to handle and install in a variety of applications.
This is a kind of passive electronic switching element with contacts, simple structure, small size and easy to control. It consists of a sealed glass envelope containing two elastic iron tongues and is filled with an inert gas called rhodium.
Radio frequency identification (RFID) uses radio frequency electromagnetic fields wirelessly and non-contactly to send data for the purpose of automatically identifying and tracking tags attached to objects. The tag contains information stored electronically. This EM18 RFID reader is a small and easy-to-use RFID reader module. If the antenna is built in, the only drawback is the 2mm pin spacing. Power on the module and lift the card to get a serial string output containing the card's unique ID. There is a TTL output.
