Book the 10-minute intro
For charging station manufacturers

Every charging station needs an RFID reader. Develop one, or license the one already in the field.

The RFBT001 speaks Modbus RTU over RS-485. RFID for all common standards, encrypted Bluetooth over BLE 5.0, and an EAL5+ secure element on the board.

The decision

Developing it in house.
Or licensing it.

Developing it in houseLicensing from InTallyCon
Time to market
In houseTwelve to twenty-four months.

Schematic, layout, firmware, EMC, field testing. Then the first revision.

LicensedWeeks.

The design exists and runs. You integrate it into your controller.

Engineering cost
In houseA hardware engineer and a firmware engineer.

Both tied up for the whole period, and afterwards for maintenance.

LicensedOne licence fee.

The figure is on this page. No quote process, no per unit fee.

Field risk
In houseYour first revision is the field test.

Every fault surfaces at a customer site, not on your bench.

LicensedAlready in the field.

The reader runs in over a thousand charging stations today.

Certification
In houseYou carry it alone.

EMC, safety and the paperwork sit entirely on your side.

LicensedYou still carry it.

But you start from a design that has already been through it.

What you own
In houseEverything, eventually.

Including every revision, every erratum and every night of debugging.

LicensedAs much as you licence.

Production only, or with the hardware files, or with the firmware sources.

The product

One board. RFID, Bluetooth and a secure element.

How it works

Intro. Deep dive. Licence.

01

Intro

A short call with Carsten. You describe your station, he tells you whether the reader fits and what integrating it involves. No slides.

02

Deep dive

One hour per product, live on the PC software, every hardware and software feature. Booked per lesson.

250 USD per lesson · 50 USD per additional person
03

Licence

You pick tier and scope from the tables above. 50 % of what you spent on the deep dive is credited against the licence.

Questions

Before you book the call.

01Does it work with our charge controller?
It speaks Modbus RTU over RS-485. If your controller has a free RS-485 port, it works. Your controller keeps its firmware and its architecture.
02Which card types does the reader support?
The MIFARE family and all common RFID standards. Encrypted Bluetooth over BLE 5.0 is on the same board.
03Can we get exclusivity?
Yes, through a buy-out. The price is under each licence table.
04Can you adapt it to our enclosure or our protocol?
Yes. Layout and firmware changes are offered hourly or at a fixed price. Bring it to the intro.
05What does it cost?
The licence prices are on this page, by tier and scope. The intro is free, the deep dive is 250 USD per lesson and half of it is credited against a licence.
06Do we pay per unit?
No. One licence fee for the scope you pick. What you build after that is yours to produce.
07Do you also offer a display?
Yes. The OmniDisplay comes from the same house and uses the same bus. There is a bundle price for reader and display in the second table above. See the display page.
