RFID Chip

What Does RFID Chip Mean?

A RFID chip is another term used to define a RFID tag. It is a tag, label or card that can exchange data with a reader using radio frequency (RF) signals. It usually has a built-in antenna and an integrated circuit IC. The antenna can send and receive radio waves, while the IC takes care of modulating and demodulating the radio signals, as well as processing and storing data.

Techopedia explains RFID Chip

RFID chips are quite similar to bar code labels in that they typically work with a corresponding scanner or reader. However, RFID chips have significant advantages. Because a RFID chip communicates with a reader through radio waves (not infrared, which is being used by bar code technology), the chip doesn't have to be positioned right in front of the reader. That is, line-of-sight is not needed.
Also, unlike a bar code reader/label pair, which have to be really close (about a few centimeters), some RFID reader/chip pairs can function even if they are a few meters apart. Furthermore, while a bar code label can only be read by a single reader at a time, a RFID chip can transmit data to multiple readers simultaneously.
There are different kinds of RFID chips. Some require batteries, known as active chips, while others don't (passive). Others are designed for indoor use or built for rugged, outdoor applications. The most common applications include object tracking and identification.
Chips can also differ in the kind of radio frequencies they operate on. Some communicate via Ultra High Frequency (UHF), High Frequency (HF) or Low Frequency (LF).
RFID chips can be attached just about anywhere: clothes, shoes, vehicles, containers and even plants, animals and human beings (as implants). Miniaturized chips have even been attached to insects.

Below is a summary for all rfid chips that used frequently in our daily life. You can quick learn difference from each rfid chip and choose the right one to meet your demand.

Applications of RFID Cards are distributed in identification, access control, supply chain, inventory tracking, vehicle fees, security, producing control, and asset management, especially on pets. Passive RFID Card can operate in the low frequency (LF), high frequency (HF) and ultra-high frequency (UHF) radio bands. These three frequencies are ok for us. RFID Cards have adequate security. Because RFID carries the electronic information, and the content of data vias a password to protect, so that its contents can not easily be forged and altered. We have invested in the latest printing techniques for RFID Cards to meet our customers' expectations of quality, flexibility and speed of service, and offer the full range of in-house print solutions from design to mailing and fulfillment.
