When the user configures a selected GPIO output via LLRP to output logic 0, an isolated FET switch within the reader effectively shorts that output to V- with a current sink capability of up to 1500 mA. The maximum voltage, as shown in the table above, is 30V.

This power supply could be the reader's 5V supply line and Reader GND, or an external power supply that is greater than 5V.

Voltages > 5 Volts require an external power source connected to V PLUS and V MINUSįor the GPIO outputs to function, a power supply must be connected between V+ and V.The following chart shows the electric specifications of the Impinj R700 r eader's GPIO: In order to protect the reader’s CPU, both the i nput and o utput signals are optically isolated from direct connection to the CPU. Impinj R700 GPIO Information and Specifications In the examples, we used a Phoenix Contact MCVR 1,5/ 9-ST-3,81, which also goes by part number 1827198. Use this part name/number when looking for a compatible terminal block. The GPIO connector on the reader is a Phoenix Contact MC 1,5/ 9-G-3,81 modular connector, which also goes by the part number 1803345. In order to use this 9-pin connector, you will need a GPIO terminal block. Access to these features is offered through a 9-pin connector mounts on the backside of the reader.

The Impinj R700 reader includes a multipurpose I/O port that provides two general purpose inputs, three opto-isolated outputs and a +5V supply. This article covers connecting devices to the General Purpose Input/Output (or GPIO) port on the Impinj R700 RAIN RFID read er.
