Tiny and robust UHF RFID tags enable product traceability

Murata MAGICSTRAP UHF RFID tags are now available from Mouser stock. The tiny and robust modules provide an ideal solution for product traceability when mounted on a printed circuit board. The UHF RFID modules use the board traces as an antenna for the transponder. Once the UHF RFID module is mounted, information can be stored and retrieved on MAGICSTRAP devices using any EPCglobal Gen2 / ISO 18000-6C compatible UHF reader/writer. The LXMS devices are ideal for use in telecom, automotive, and computer applications, as well as other designs in which an onboard RFID transponder is needed, says the company.
