What’s the Difference between RFID Tags, Inlays & Labels? RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology is used to identify and track objects using radio waves. RFID systems consist of three main components: a reader/scanner, an antenna, and an RFID tag, inlay, or label. When designing an RFID system – a few components typically come to mind, including RFID hardware and software. For hardware, typically RFID Readers, RFID Antennas, & RFID Tags are selected based on the r …

UHF (RAIN) RFID Chip TypeAn Ultra-High Frequency (UHF) chip is a type of radio frequency identification (RFID) tag that uses radio waves to communicate with a reader or transmitter.UHF (Ultra High Frequency) RFID tag that works at frequencies between 860-960 MHz.Four frequency bands are used in tag design: Low Frequency – 125/134 kHz High Frequency – 13.56 MHz Ultra-High Frequency – 433 MHz (sometimes called Very High VHF), 860-960 MHz Microwave Frequency – 2.45 GHz       &nb …

Selecting an appropriate RFID Tag is one of the most important steps when getting started with an RFID project. To help with that process, we’ve outlined 24 questions you can ask yourself to make you are picking the right one What is the footprint (size) available to attach the RFID Tag to the associated item? What will be the method to attach the RFID tag? (Embed, Adhesive, Rivet, Solder, Zip tie, etc.)Where on the object will the RFID tag be attached?How far away do you need to be a …

UHF RFID or RAIN RFID is an emerging IoT technology that is gaining adoption across multiple industries because its combination of low-cost tags and several-meter read range. Inventory management, asset tracking and authentication solutions are just some of the use cases being enabled by RFID in retail, logistics, supply chain, healthcare, airline baggage, automotive and manufacturing. Many of these solutions require an optimized tag to enable long read range for tagging a specific ma …
