Why is there a cost difference between active and passive tags?

Passive tags has no battery and uses energy from the reader’s radio waves, making it more affordable than an active tag which requires a battery to power itself. 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 […]

What is an RFID tag made up of?

What is an RFID tag made up of? The basic components of an RFID tag can be divided into two parts. First, an integrated circuit for the purpose of data storing and processing, radio wave modulating and demodulating, and capturing power from reader’s radio waves.  Second, an antenna for enhancing signal transmission. What is an […]

What is an RFID tag?

What is an RFID tag? Increasingly, RFID tagging is used in supply chain management as an alternative to bar code technology. RFID tags that contain their own power source are known as active tags. Those without a power source are known as passive tags. A passive tag is briefly activated by the radio frequency ( […]

Is RFID development better than bar codes used?

RFID development is better than the bar codes because RFID tags don’t need to be within the line of sight of the reader and bar codes do. This saves time and allows faster processing because assets don’t need to be oriented a certain way to be read. A bar code is an optical, machine-readable, representation of […]

About RFID technology,is a new technology?

RFID is a general term that is used to describe a system that transmits the identity (in the form of a unique serial number) of an object wirelessly, using radio waves. This is sometimes referred to as contact-less technology and a typical RFID system is made up of three components: tags, readers and the host […]

What is the RFID card developed?

What is the RFID card developed?RFID has been used and depended on for over 70 years. In 1945, Léon Theremin invented an espionage tool for the Soviet Union which retransmitted incident radio waves with audio information. Sound waves vibrated a diaphragm which slightly altered the shape of the resonator, which modulated the reflected radio frequency. Even though this device was a covert listening device, not […]

What is RFID technology?

What is RFID technology? Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) is the use of radio waves to read and capture information stored on a tag attached to an object.  A tag can be read from up to several feet away and does not need to be within direct line-of-sight of the reader to be tracked. Radio frequency identification […]

What is automatic identification and data capture

Automatic identification and data capture (AIDC) refers to the methods of automatically identifying objects, collecting data about them, and entering that data directly into computer systems (i.e. without human involvement). Technologies typically considered as part of AIDC include bar codes, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), biometrics, magnetic stripes, Optical Character Recognition (OCR), smart cards, and voice […]

RFID blocking technology generally uses material

RFID blocking technology refers to that prevents unsolicited RFID scanning and data harvesting that can lead to theft and duplication of credit card and personal information. This technology is typically part of an RFID-blocking wallet and creates interference to block most RFID readers. What is Radio Frequency Identification blocking? RFID blocking technology generally uses material […]
