A Practical Solution for Powering RFID Tags that Performs Well in Field Applications Lightly edited for readability
Solution Offered by EnerCera battery
EnerCera batteries support rapid wireless charging, so there is no need to worry about charge levels.
Using rechargeable batteries to power RFID tags eliminates the need to retrieve or replace tags or batteries, thereby reducing operating costs.
The 0.45mm / 0.018inch thick EnerCera Pouch is recommended for size-sensitive applications.
The reflow-solderable EnerCera Coin is recommended applications where resilience or mass-producibility is important.
The development team immediately ordered product samples, which they subjected to a range of tests connected to their RFID system. EnerCera battery not only freed them from their worries about battery life but also offered low-running costs. They were confident it would enable them to create an efficient traceability solution.
The Manufacturer’s Search Ended with an Ultra-Compact Rechargeable Lithium-ion Battery
While researching a solution, a member of the manufacturer’s R&D team learned about an RFID tag that ran on NGK’s ultra-compact Lithium-ion rechargeable batteries. He immediately contacted NGK and told them about the issues his team was having. A few days later, he received information on EnerCera’s features, was advised on specific solutions tailored to his team’s issues, and received a proposal that laid out specifications and dimensions for an RFID tag enhanced with the features being developed by the manufacturer.
EnerCera Makes the Ideal RFID Tag a Reality
The development team immediately ordered product samples, which they subjected to a range of tests connected to their RFID system. EnerCera battery not only freed them from their worries about battery life but also offered low-running costs. They were confident it would enable them to create an efficient traceability solution.
The team has begun testing a newly-developed RFID tag to determine the extent to which it can boost the accuracy and efficiency of inventory management and stock take. They are currently evaluating and testing a new EnerCera-powered RFID tag, while continuing to receive advice from NGK and obtain feedback from their shipping client.
