Advanced RFID Tag Simplifies Attachment Process Ensuring Greater Quality Control
Murata Electronics’ LXMS31 Series MAGICSTRAP™ is designed for complete coverage in the Ultra High Frequency (UHF) band (850 to 965 MHz). This advanced Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Tag is designed to be applied directly on the printed circuit board (PCB) like other SMT components. The MAGICSTRAP tag is inductively coupled to the antenna that has been designed and integrated into the PCB. Therefore, no electrical contact is necessary, allowing the MAGICSTRAP to be adhered to the PCB using glue or sticky tape. Implementing Murata’s MAGICSTRAP in the early stages of manufacturing allows individuals to monitor and quickly take action to improve efficiencies. The circuitry provides the impedance matching feature required to cover the entire UHF bandwidth in a single device that complies with the EPCGlobal C1 G2 standard. This benefit also maximizes the antenna read range to a distance of five meters in some cases. Once production is complete, the tag can still be read since line of sight is not necessary with RFID technology.
