What is an RFID tag (chip)?

1. RFID electronic tag background


RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) tags are a technology used to identify and track objects. It includes a microchip and an antenna that can be used to store and transmit data. RFID technology is widely used in various industries, including retail, logistics, healthcare and other fields.


The background of RFID tags can be traced back to World War II, when the US military first used this technology to identify aircraft. In the following decades, RFID technology has gradually grown and become an important automatic identification technology. With the continuous advancement of technology, RFID tags have become smaller, cheaper and more reliable, and are increasingly widely used in various fields.


The background of RFID tags also includes comparisons with other automatic identification technologies, such as barcodes. Compared with barcodes, RFID tags have higher reading speeds, wider identification ranges and larger storage capacities, which can better meet the needs of modern logistics and retail for automatic identification technology. The background of RFID tags has laid a solid foundation for its application in various industries.
