I recently got more SiiD modules to lake xSIID with but they weren’t labelled so I had to test to figure out the colors. Ended up with 3 “testers”, which made for some pretty interesting tidbits.
ok. i’m keeping the green for me, and i’ve offered a choice between the other two to a special friend of DT… but if they don’t want one then I will consider your post “dibs”.
hah depends on how you hold your phone… do you hold it so your microphone and speaker are facing away from your mouth and ear? if so, then probably yeah
it’s more a function of the phone than the tag… given the range of the flexNExT it should, if the phone’s components weren’t such an impediment to the NFC magnetic field.
To be honest, I think some phones even put a backing layer of ferrite polymer to shape the field such that the phone’s components do not interfere with the NFC field. This is commonly used in wireless charging receivers as well.
yes and no lol, the SIID module is specifically a ntagi2c chip with a power harvesting output that is connected to an LED. I dont think were going to see normal sized flexes with led’s just on a realistic standpoint.
How would you connect an led to a flexM1 and maintain the same footprint, I don’t think you could. But I’m willing to be proved wrong
it’s possible but annoying… it would require special carrier pcb and led and probably a resistor too… and it would change the tuning of all the antennas i’d need to use… and nobody publishes the capacitance of their LEDs so it would be trial and error… just a lot of annoyance.
