1.1
www.ti.com
General
The Tag-it HF-I Pro Transponder Inlays are part of TI’s 13.56-MHz product family based on the
ISO/IEC 15693 standard for contactless integrated circuit cards (vicinity cards) and the ISO/IEC 18000-3
standard for item management. The Tag-it HF-I Pro Transponder Inlays, available in various inlay shapes,
also form the basis of consumable smart labels for use in markets requiring quick and accurate
identification of items, such as:
• Asset tagging
• Electronic ticketing
• Anti-counterfeit prevention
• Building access badges
The passive (no battery) transponder inlays are thin and flexible, offer a general-purpose read/write
capability, and are designed to be easily converted into paper or plastic labels.
The inlay is supplied on a polymer tape substrate, one web wide and delivered on reels. This allows an
easy integration into existing label manufacturing processes to produce disposable labels.
User data is written to and read from memory blocks using a nonvolatile EEPROM silicon technology.
Each block is separately programmable by the user and can be locked to protect data from modification.
Once the data has been locked, it can only be changed by the password-protected Write command.
For example, information about delivery checkpoints and timing, place of origin/destination, pallet
assignments, inventory numbers, and even transportation routes can be coded into the transponder.
Multiple Tag-it HF-I Pro Transponder Inlays, which appear in the Reader RF field, can be identified, read
from, and written to by using the unique identifier (UID), which is programmed and locked at the factory
and cannot be changed.
1.2
System Description
For operation, a reader with antenna is required to send a command to the transponder and to receive its
response (see Figure 1-1). The command of the Reader can be either in addressed or non-addressed
mode. The Transponder does not transmit data until the Reader sends a request (Reader talks first
principle).

1.3
Product Description
The Tag-it HF-I Pro Transponder is compliant to the ISO/IEC 15693-2,-3 and ISO/IEC 180000-3
standards. It consists of a resonance circuit assembled on a PET foil with a flip-chip mounted microchip.
An aluminum antenna is used as inductor, and two layers of aluminum on the top and bottom side of the
foil function as a capacitor. The two layers are contacted with through contacts (see Figure 1-2). TI uses
this capacitor to individually tune each device to a target resonance frequency. This compensates for any
material and process tolerances and, therefore, ensures optimal performance of every single transponder
inlay. The trim target includes frequency offset to compensate detuning that occurs after further integration
into different materials, such as paper or PVC.

Functional Description
The Tag-it HF-I Pro Transponder is a low-power, full-duplex transponder for use with passive contactless
identification transponder systems.
The Transponder is designed to operate with a 13.56-MHz carrier frequency. The ISO standards define,
for some communication parameters, several modes in order to meet different international radio
regulations and different application requirements. Therefore, communication between the Reader and the
Transponder (Down-Link communication) takes place using an ASK modulation index between 10% and
30% or 100% and data coding (pulse position modulation), 1 out of 4 or 1 out of 256.
According to ISO/IEC 15693-2 and ISO/IEC18000-3, Up-Link communication (Transponder to Reader)
can be accomplished with one subcarrier (ASK modulation) or with two subcarriers (FSK modulation).
Both modes (ASK and FSK) can operate with either high or low data rate. The Transponder will answer
in the mode it was interrogated from the Reader and supports all communication parameter
combinations. Up- and Down-Link are frame synchronized and CRC checksum secured.
Each Tag-it HF-I Pro Transponder has a unique address (UID) stored in two blocks that are factory
programmed and 64 bits long (=264 different addresses). This can be used for addressing each
transponder uniquely and individually for a one-to-one exchange between the Reader and the
Transponder. A mechanism to resolve collisions of a multiplicity of transponders (Anticollision) is also
implemented. This special feature allows multiple transponders to be read simultaneously and offers the
capability to inventory in a very short time a large number of transponders by their unique address,
provided they are within the reader operating range.
Also, the application family identifier (AFI), which is optional in the ISO/IEC 15693, is supported by the
Tag-it HF-I Pro Transponder.
For more details about the communication between Reader and Transponder, see ISO/IEC 15693 and the
Tag-it HF-I Pro Extended Command Specification.

Memory Organization

www.ti.com
Memory Organization
User data is read and stored in a 256-bit nonvolatile user memory that is organized in eight blocks. Each
block with 32 bits is user programmable and can be locked individually to protect data from modification.
Once set, the lock bit cannot be reset. The user memory is field programmable per block. User-locked
blocks can be reprogrammed by use of the password-protected write command.

CAUTION
A high current density of an electrostatic discharge from the foil can damage
the chip (IC). Therefore, it is recommended to use ionizer or antistatic rollers in
the manufacturing process. Any conductive parts in touch with Tag-it HF-I Pro
Inlays should have a high-impedance discharge to ground. We recommend
approximately 1 MΩ to avoid ESD damage.

Regulatory, Safety, and Warranty Notices
4.1
www.ti.com
Regulatory, Safety, and Warranty Notices
An RFID system comprises an RF transmission device and is, therefore, subject to national and
international regulations.
A system reading from or writing to these transponders may be operated only under an experimental
license or final approval issued by the relevant approval authority. Before any such device or system can
be marketed, an equipment authorization must be obtained form the relevant approval authority.
The Tag-it HF-I Pro Transponder Inlay has been manufactured using state-of-the-art technology and in
accordance with the recognized safety rules.
Observe precautions in operating instructions
• Condition for the safe processing, handling, and fault-free operation of the Tag-it HF-I Pro Transponder
Inlay is the knowledge of the basic safety regulations.
• All persons who operate the Tag-it HF-I Pro Transponder Inlay must observe the guidelines and
particularly the safety precautions outlined in this document.
• In addition, basic rules and regulations for accident prevention applicable to the operating site must
also be considered.
4.2
Warranty and Liability
The "General Conditions of Sale and Delivery" of Texas Instruments Incorporated or a TI subsidiary apply.
Warranty and liability claims for defect products, injuries to persons and property damages are void if they
are the result of one or more of the following causes:
• Improper use of the transponders
• Unauthorized assembly, operation, and maintenance of the transponders
• Operation of the transponders with defective and/or nonfunctioning safety and protective equipment
• Failure to observe the instructions given in this document during transport, storage, assembly,
operation, maintenance, and setting up of the transponders
• Unauthorized changes to the transponders
• Insufficient monitoring of the transponders' operation or environmental conditions
• Repairs
• Catastrophes caused by foreign bodies and natural disasters.
CAUTION
Tag-it HF-I Pro Transponder Inlays are 100% thoroughly tested. It is the
responsibility of TI's customer to evaluate their packaging process for
compatibility with the Tag-it HF-I Pro Transponder Inlay properties and to
ensure through appropriate process controls that determined machine and
material parameter are met on an ongoing basis. TI does not accept warranty
claims for material that has already undergone packaging or conversion
process.
4.3
Hazards From Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
During unwinding, the foil and the separator tape are charged electrostatically (depending on the
unwinding speed and the tensile stress). For the proper operation of the machine, it is necessary to
deionize the foil to remove the electrostatic charge.
WARNING
Electronic devices can also be destroyed by electrostatic energy.

Danger of Cutting Injuries
www.ti.com
4.4
Danger of Cutting Injuries
WARNING
Take care when unwinding the foil. The greater the unwinding
speed and the tensile stress, the greater the risk of receiving a cut
when the edge of the foil is touched.
4.5
Thermal Effects
Temperatures >85°C on the foil inlay during the packaging process may result in a significant and
permanent material deformation and a possible change of color of the foil inlays, as well as a change in
the electrical characteristics.
4.6
Handling
The settings for foil unwinding and for the attendant forces must be in accordance to the information in
Section 3.8.
