Description
The H4001 is a CMOS integrated circuit for use in
transponders. The circuit is powered by an external
coil placed in a magnetic field, and gets its clock from
the same field via one of the coil terminals. The other
coil terminal is affected by the modulator, turning on
and off the modulation current in order to send back
the 64 bits of information contained in a factory
pre-programmed memory array.
Typical value of inductance at 125 KHz is 2 mH
The capacitor is adjusted to the resonance

The programming of the chip is performed by laser
fusing of polysilicon links in order to store a unique
code on each chip.
Pin Assignment
The serial output data string contains a 9 bits header,
40 bits of data, 14 parity bits, and 1 stop bit.
COIL 2
Due to the low power consumption of the logic core,
no supply buffer capacitor is required. Only an external
coil is required to obtain the chip function. A parallel
capacitor adjusted with the coil to obtain resonnance,
will increase the read distance.
