Tag / Transponder
|
|
A microchip attached to an antenna that picks up signals from and sends signals to a reader. The tag contains a unique serial number, but may have other information, such as a customers' account number. RFID tags can be active tags, passive tags and semi-passive tags. RFID tags are sometimes referred to as transponders.
|
| |
Reader
|
|
The reader communicates with the RFID tag via radio waves and passes the information in digital form to a computer system.
|
| |
Antenna
|
|
The antenna is the conductive element that enables the tag to send and receive data. Passive tags usually have a coiled antenna that couples with the coiled antenna of the reader to form a magnetic field. The tag draws power from this field.
|
| |
Transceiver
|
|
Transceivers both receive and transmit data.
|
| |
Printer / Encoder
|
|
RFID are used to encode RFID tags.
|
| |
System
|
|
A system includes both a reader and tags. A system can also include a printer / encoder.
|
| |
Other
|
|
Other unlisted, specialized, or proprietary RFID products.

|
|
|
| |
Passive
|
|
An RFID tag without a battery. When radio waves from the reader reach the chip’s antenna, it creates a magnetic field. The tag draws power from the field and is able to send back information stored on the chip.
|
| |
Semi-passive
|
|
Similar to active tags, but the battery is used to run the microchip's circuitry but not to communicate with the reader. Some semi-passive tags sleep until they are woken up by a signal from the reader, which conserves battery life.
|
| |
Active
|
|
An RFID tag that comes with a battery that is used to power the microchip’s circuitry and transmit a signal to a reader. Active tags can be read from 100 feet or more away.

|
| |
RS232
|
|
Interface between data terminal equipment and data communications equipment employing serial binary data interchange.
|
| |
RS422
|
|
RS422 is a balanced serial interface for the transmission of digital data. It was designed for greater distances and higher Baud rates than RS232.
|
| |
RS485
|
|
RS485 is a balanced serial interface for the transmission of digital data. The advantage of a balanced signal is the greater immunity to noise. The difference between RS422 and RS485 is that RS485 can be transformed into a multi-point application.

I²C
|
|
Inter-Integrated Circuit (I²C) is a bus is an inexpensive type of chip interconnection that is popular on circuit boards (pronounced "Eye Squared C").
|
| |
TTL
|
|
Transistor-transistor logic (TTL) is a common type of digital circuit in which the output is derived from two transistors. More commonly, however, TTL is used to designate any type of digital input or device.
|
| |
USB
|
|
USB products (Universal Serial Bus) is the original standard that supports data transfer rates of up to 12 Mbps.
|
| |
Wireless
|
|
The interface is wireless.
|
| |
Other
|
|
Other unlisted, specialized, or proprietary interfaces.
