Atmel: The Expert with Long -Term Know - How Atmel, a pioneer in the RFID area, provided the industry’s first read-only RFID ICs at the end of the ‘80s. Since 1995, Atmel has also been offering the world’s most flexible read/write ICs. Today, Atmel is a key player for low-frequencybased 100 -150kHz RFID ICs for access control and animal ID tags. Through continuous improvement and innovation, Atmel is able to present a product scope that covers all semiconductors required for RFID tags. Our RFID ICs provide outstanding performance, and they are flexible and easy to design in solutions. Customers...

Atmel Innovative Silicon RFID IDIC Solutions Active RFID The following two components form an active RFID system: • Battery-driven tag, transponder or label • Reader or trigger and receive station An active RFID system is very similar to passive RFID. The main difference is that the tag or transponder is battery driven. Also, the reader consists of two main parts: 1. LF trigger and TX channel: sends the trigger or wake-up signal (not the power for the tag), transmits data to the tag. 2. UHF RX channel: receives the return message sent by the tag in the UHF frequency band. Active RFID System Active...

RFID Applications Versatile and flexible products form an Atmel product scope that offers solutions for almost all appli­ cations in the main RFID market segments. Atmel’s products fulfill the market requirements that call for fast, secure and reliable identification systems. Most applications use passive RFID technology. In those cases, how­ ver, where increased e distance, higher tag memory or sensor inputs are required, active RFID is the right choice. Security and Access Control Typical Applications To control access to buildings or other objects such as hotel rooms or lockers by persons...

Atmel Innovative Silicon RFID IDIC Solutions Component Authentication Typical Applications Within consumer and commercial systems there are often components that need to be guaranteed authentic for the proper operation of the system or the safety of the user. RFID provides a convenient and secure method of identifying a removable or replaceable component. RFID tags can be made in a variety of shapes and sizes specifically designed for the component they are attached to. With no electrical connections required, a solution can be found for just about any component whether it has electronic content...

Manufacturing and Logistics RFID systems guarantee reliability even in dirty and harsh environments. LF RFID is well suited for applications in difficult conditions where HF, UHF or Microwave RFID systems are not able to operate, such as under water or surrounded by metal. Efficient and time-saving systems can be achieved by fast and secure identification solutions that do not need direct contact or line-of-sight. In this area, accurate manufacturing and logistic systems enable cost and time savings. The environmental and velocity factors especially play an important role. Active RFID technology...
