In the RFID world there is hardly ever a one fit solution for all RFID tags or RFID readers. Frequency as well as type of tags and readers must be carefully chosen to have an efficiently working system solution. With fully trained engineers and a network of highly skilled partners, Silica is not only able to offer a wide porfolio of products but Silica also provides completely customize tags for your applications.
If you need to create a custom tag with a special antenna or in a special package for a harsh environment, or if you are searching a local system integrator for implementing your solution, just ask the RFID Team at Silica!
RFID for PCB Tracking Solutions
Implementing RFID for tracking assets has proven to be difficult in the past. The main challenges consisted of the complexity and the size requirements of the antenna needed for tags in LF and HF frequencies. Silica now presents a new innovative solution from NXP that perfectly fits the needs of PCB Tracking:
- Very small surface mount package compatible with standard pick and place machines
- Use of the ground plane of the PCB as antenna, reducing the space requirements for the application
