What is RFID technology?

• RFID stands for RRadio FFrequency IDIDentification

• BIS stands for BBalluff IIdentification SSystem

• Used to track and identifytrack and identify products, objects, resources,

persons, production, materials, etc.

• Transfer ID information by wireless radio transmissionwireless radio transmission

between a portable memory device called a “Tag“Tag / Data Data

carrier”carrier” and a host.

• An RFID System requires three componentsto operate: 1.1. Data Carrier (Tag)Data Carrier (Tag)

2. Read / Write Head2. Read / Write Head3. RFID Processor3. RFID Processor

• The Data Carrier (Tag)Data Carrier (Tag)

– is the actual data carrying device of an RFID system containing write capable memory based on EEPROM or FRAM technology

– is located on the object to be identified

• The ”Read / Write -Head””Read / Write -Head”

– powers the tag

– transfers data to/from the tag via inductive coupling

• The “Processor“Processor”

– controls / powers the heads

– communicates to the outside process

• Operation mode(static / dynamic)

• Size & Shape of– Data carrier– Read/write

• Mounting material and clearance

BIS Data Carriers / Code Tags:

• Are passive tagspassive tags thus have no powerno power supply and are

powered up by the Read-/Write-Head.

• Do not initiate communication but instead can only respond to the reader.

• The Read-/Write-Head communicates with BIS Data Carrier via

inductive couplinginductive coupling

Inductive / Passive … The Benefitsof Balluff BIS Systems

Common characteristics of all inductive coupled Balluff BIS Systems Data carriers energized inductively by the read-/write head Contactless and maintenance-free Fail-safe inductive based data carrier communication Fast data exchange, down to 29ms read time for 64 byte (BIS S) On-the-fly tag read/writes possible Read/write through insulating materials Reusable, long-life data carriers Designed for rough environments, therefore insensitive to dust and dirt.
