Overview
The Suprema SFM5500-TC is a standalone fingerprint module from the SFM5500 Series. Besides fingerprint matching it has RS-232, RS-422/485, Wiegand in and out, digital I/O and LED control, so it can work as a complete fingerprint access reader inside your own housing. This version uses a UPEK TouchChip capacitive sensor, offered as TC1 or TC2.
Is it right for you?
Choose it if you design or build a product that needs fingerprint recognition, such as fingerprint access readers and attendance terminals. It is a component for manufacturers and integrators, not a finished reader for a door, so it needs a host board, a housing and your own software.
