Privacy PolicySensitive, Low-Power RF Identification (RFID) Devices
RFID is a contactless technology that involves using an RF signal to read and write data into an RFID tag's nonvolatile memory. Low-frequency RFID devices typically consist of a transponder (tag) and a reader.
To help you design solutions for the many vertical markets that rely on RFID technology, we offer a variety of contactless read or read/write products. Our transponders operate within the 100 to 150 kHz bandwidth range. Our RFID chips are suitable for the smallest devices and don’t require any external components, which reduces the cost of your tag.
These identification ICs are available as die-on-wafers with optional gold bumps, packaged die or an entire transponder.
Key Features
Standards Based
We comply with industry-specific standards, such as ISO 11784/85 (FDX-B and FDX-A) for animal identification and waste management.
Flexible Modulation Coding Options
The devices can be configured easily to support FSK, PSK, ASK, Manchester, bi-phase, NRZ direct coding and other modulation schemes.
Security
Our read/write transponders contain a Unique Identifier (UID) number with traceability code.
Low-Power Design
All of our RFID ICs are designed for low power consumption to extend the read/write operating distance.
Comprehensive Kits
We offer self-contained demonstration kits with an LCD and control buttons so you can interact with the RFID system.
Development Support
We also provide source code, building blocks and reference designs for quickly evaluating and prototyping complete system-level designs.

- 100–150 kHz Read/Write Devices
- 125 kHz Transponders
Simplifies the Production Process and Accelerates Time to Market
Our low-frequency Identification IC (IDIC) devices are designed for the latest generation of contactless access control systems used in hotel room, office and parking lot applications as well as customer loyalty and membership cards. Their One-Time Programmable (OTP) functionality simplifies the production process and accelerates time to market.
Integrate Components to Reduce Your Bill of Materials
Our low-frequency Identification IC (IDIC) devices integrate components to reduce your bill of materials. A single coil connected to the chip serves as the power supply and bi-directional communication interface, while the antenna and chip together form the transponder (tag). An on-chip EEPROM can be read and written block-wise from the reader.
