Impinj E510 Reader IC

Medium-range performance for POS, mobile and wearables.

The E510 targets point-of-sale devices, mobile and wearable readers, smart appliances and connected consumables — products that need reliable medium-range reading in a very small, power-efficient footprint. It offers up to 14 dB better sensitivity than the Indy R500 it replaces, with the same 6 x 6 mm package and software as the rest of the E family.
