NFC Keyfob, 40 x 32 mm, I-CODE SLIX, 124 byte, blue

Usage

Our most popular NFC tag is water resistant due to its material and its chipset can withstand temperatures from -25 degrees to 70 degrees. With the integrated I-CODE SLIX chipset this article is ideal for article surveillance and authenticity certification.

Product description

The blue NFC Keyfob is made of ABS, so it is very robust and fully waterproof. The keyfob has a length of 40 mm, a width of 32 mm and a thickness of 4.3 mm overall. Additionally, the keyfob has a ring out of metal, so it can be attached at a key ring. The NFC microchip is integrated inside the product.

Features & functions

The sticker contains the NXP ICODE SLIX, which has a memory capacity of 128 bytes (106 bytes NDEF) and can be written up to 100,000 times. This is an NFC forum type 5 tag. The ICODE SLIX is characterized on the one hand by a high life span of the data of 50 years (data retention) and on the other hand by a higher range compared to the NXP NTAG series. In practice, this means that smartphones can read the ICODE SLIX from distances of up to 1-5cm (see NTAG practically 1-3cm). With appropriate reading devices (no smartphones), distances of up to 1.5m are also possible.

The higher range results from the fact that the ICODE SLIX operates according to the ISO/IEC 15693 standard. In simple terms, this means that the day achieves a longer range with the same amount of energy due to lower energy requirements. This advantage is bought by the disadvantage of a significantly lower transmission speed compared to the NTAG series. Due to the low memory capacity, this is negligible for many applications.

Other functions of the ICODE SLIX include a unique 8-byte serial number (UID) and the option of providing write protection for the contents. In addition, the chip supports the function of electronic article surveillance with password protection (EAS). In combination with the increased range, this makes it possible, for example, to monitor articles and their authorized removal at a gateway (use for loan books and media).  The function of the Application Family Identifier (AFI) enables the chip to inform the reader of the intended use.

Applications
