Tiny RFID transponders

7 March 2012 Telecoms, Datacoms, Wireless, IoT

Texas Instruments introduced what it claims is the world’s smallest half-duplex radio frequency identification (RFID) mini-transponders that enable customers to embed tags into smaller objects across a broader range of applications. The 12 mm TRPGR30TGC and TRPGP40TGC glass encapsulated mini-transponders are ready to use and 100% backwards compatible with all of TI’s RFID software and readers including power modules, control modules and micro readers.

The TRPGP40TGC is programmable according to ISO 11784/11785 global livestock ID standards so customers can create compatible products that can be read by 134,2 kHz ISO-compliant receivers/infrastructure worldwide. The mini-transponders are durable enough for use in applications including tool, medical instrument, package and inventory tracking and safe enough for use in fish and livestock tracking and pet identification, and are expected to work for up to 30 years.

TI’s HDX technology, hermetically encapsulated in the 12 mm glass transponder, provides a read range up to 50 cm and allows for easier tag spotting for fish tracking in fresh water and even in salt water environments where FDX technology completely fails. HDX technology has high resistance to noise through frequency-shift keying (FSK) modulation and consistent performance through parametric testing and electronic resonance tuning performed on each mini-transponder throughout the production cycle.

The TRPGR30TGC can be fully encapsulated in carbon fibre (bicycle frames, aerospace, automotive applications), environments with high noise levels (industrial applications, assembly lines) and in salt water.
