Embedded Contactless QR NFC RFID Reader
All-in-One 2D Barcode & NFC Reader Module - HW-1520_NFC for Smart Device Integration
Designed for space-constrained IoT devices, the HW-1520_NFC is a compact embedded module that combines high-speed 2D barcode scanning with contactless NFC card reading. Its small footprint (53.5*36*16mm) and flexible interface options—including USB-HID, USB virtual COM, and TTL-232—allow for quick integration into turnstiles, payment terminals, kiosks, and smart home systems.
Key Advantages
- Two Functions in One - Simultaneously reads popular 2D codes (QR Code, Data Matrix, PDF417) and 1D codes (EAN/UPC, Code128), plus NFC cards such as Mifare and ID cards—ideal for identity verification and cashless payments.
- Fits Anywhere - Ultra-compact size and lightweight design (<15g) make it perfect for POS machines, handheld devices, and automated access points.
- Reliable in Any Light - High-sensitivity 640*480 CMOS sensor with smart illumination ensures consistent decoding in low-light or bright environments; motion tolerance of 80cm/s handles fast-moving codes with ease.
- Plug-and-Play Connectivity - Three output modes (USB-HID, USB virtual COM, TTL-232) require no additional drivers, enabling seamless integration across Windows, Linux, and Android platforms.
- Customizable NFC Output - Supports both continuous and trigger reading modes; allows format customization (byte order, numeric base, padding) and user-defined prefixes/suffixes for streamlined backend processing.
- Built for Tough Conditions - Rated for -20°C to 60°C operation with robust ESD protection (±6KV contact, ±12KV air), suitable for industrial and outdoor installations.
- Quick Development - Comes with an evaluation board and full SDK to shorten time-to-market and simplify custom development.
Applications
- Smart Transportation - Bus fare validators, subway gates, taxi payment devices
- Retail & Self-Service - Self-order kiosks, vending machines, locker systems
- Healthcare - Hospital registration terminals, pharmaceutical tracking
- Building Automation - Door access, visitor management, elevator control
- Industrial - Factory floor data capture, warehouse sorting systems
Why the HW-1520_NFC Stands Out
- Broad Compatibility - Works with a wide range of barcode types and NFC cards, reducing the need for multiple hardware solutions.
- Cost & Space Efficiency - Combines two critical functions into one compact module, saving both PCB space and component costs.
- Ready-to-Use Support - Comprehensive documentation, SDK, and responsive technical support ensure a smooth development experience.
