Turning RFID Tags into Sensor Tags

August 29, 2013 By Randy Frank 2 Comments

ams_PP_Sensor_TagsThe next generation of RFID tags from ams AG allows the reading of identification data, as well as temperature  from an onbaord sensor and other environmental conditions from external sensors. The SL13A is an ISO15693-compliant tag for use with near field communications (NFC-V) and high-frequency radio-frequency identification (HF RFID) readers. The SL900A is an EPC Gen 2 Class 3 tag for use with RFID readers.

Using harvested energy from an NFC reader such as an Android smartphone or tablet, applications such as patient monitoring, building control and automotive safety can read bio-medical, humidity or pressure measurements via the SL13A.

Demonstration kits, the SL13A-DK-STQFN16 for the SL13A and the SL900A DK demo kit for the SL900A are available online from ams, priced at $55.
