2013-12-01

 1: Application 

 
a)  Desktop UHF reader writer: for card issuing purpose 
b)  Wall mounted/ cell mounted UHF reader writer: for identificaton in fixed location 
c)  Handheld UHF reader writer: for mobile identification
 
2: UHF Reader paramters
 
a) Frequency band: different country has different legal UHF frequency band, EU: 865- 868 MHz, US: 902- 928 Mhz
b) Read distance: Middle range/ Long range
c) Identification rate
d) Discrete or all-in-one UHF reader
 
3: Software and SDK
 
a) Demo software: for simply use or develope purpose
b) SDK and API: for seconndary developement
 
 
4: Environment
 
a) Metal / water environment will severely decrease the distance

c)Consider high gain antenna or linear polorized antenna
 

How can I encode an NFC tag?

2013-12-01

Step 1: Get an NFC Reader

a) All NFC Mobile Devices (Phones, Tablets), apple Iphone6 series is an expection

b)  Windows OS  based NFC reader writer

 

Step 2: Determine which NFC Chip to Use

a) There are many NFC chip  options with different memory size and encryption algorithm, so basically it depend on real application.

b) Ultralight( 42 byter), UltralightC ( 142 byte ), Ntag213 (142 byte ), Ntag216 (888 byte), Topza512 (480 byte)

 

Step 3: Choose an NFC Product

a) NFC inlay, which is raw NFC products good for development or to put on the back of a poster.

b) Wearable or Portable NFC Tags -a NFC key chain or NFC wristband 

c) NFC Tags/ card - Can be printed

d) On Metal NFC Tags - when your tag will be on a metal service or electronics

e) Device NFC tags- for other devices use NFC function, such as Mobile phone, stereo

 

Step 4: Customize the NFC Product

a) Printing service 

b) Encode serice

 

Step 5: NFC Software

What's the difference between passive and active tags?

2012-11-11

Active RFID tags have a transmitter and their own power source (typically a battery). The power source is used to run the microchip's circuitry and to broadcast a signal to a reader (the way a cell phone transmits signals to a base station). Passive tags have no battery. Instead, they draw power from the reader, which sends out electromagnetic waves that induce a current in the tag's antenna. Semi-passive tags use a battery to run the chip's circuitry, but communicate by drawing power from the reader. Active and semi-passive tags are useful for tracking high-value goods that need to be scanned over long ranges, such as railway cars on a track, but they cost more than passive tags, which means they can't be used on low-cost items.

How much information can an RFID tag store?

2012-11-11

It depends on the vendor, the application and type of tag, but typically a tag carries no more than 2 kilobytes (KB) of data—enough to store some basic information about the item it is on. Simple "license plate" tags contain only a 96-bit or 128-bit serial number. The simple tags are cheaper to manufacture and are more useful for applications where the tag will be disposed of with the product packaging. The aerospace industry wants to store parts histories on high memory tag, which has led to the introduction of passive UHF tags that store 4KB or 8KB of data.
