You may always hear about RFID tag. Then what is RFID tag?
RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) tag, commonly known as “electronic tag”, is a non-contact automatic identification technology that automatically recognizes target objects and acquires relevant data through radio frequency signals. The identification work does not require manual intervention as a wireless version of the barcode. RFID technology has the advantages of waterproof, anti-magnetic, high temperature resistance, long service life, and long reading distance, data encryption on the label, larger storage data capacity, and free storage information. The application will be for retail, Logistics and other industries have brought about revolutionary changes.
Basic composition of RFID
The RFID tag is physically composed of three parts: a tag, an antenna, and a reader.
Tag: consists of a coupling element and a chip. Each tag has a unique electronic code. The high-capacity electronic tag has a user write area attached to the object to identify the target object.
Reader: A device that reads (and sometimes writes) tag information and can be designed to be handheld or fixed;
What is RFID tag features?
Data storage: Compared with traditional forms of tags, the capacity is larger (1 bit – 1024 bit), data can be updated at any time, and can be read and written;
Read and write speed: Compared with barcode, it does not need linear alignment scanning, and the reading and writing speed is faster, which can multi-target recognition and motion recognition;
Easy to use: small size, easy to package, can be embedded in the product;
Security: The dedicated chip and serial number are unique and difficult to copy;
Durable: no mechanical failure, long life and resistance to harsh environments.
