UHF IC Comparison Guide

Every year, more RFID Chips, or ICs, are added to the market as options for some of the best selling RFID tags - like the Smartrac Dogbone and Alien Squiggle. Generally, the more options the better, however, the number of options makes choosing an IC for your application, much more difficult - so we created the UHF IC Comparison Guide.

This IC Comparison Guide shows you 33 different RFID chips, side by side, along with their most important specifications. The current comparison guide features three of the most popular IC manufacturers - Alien, Impinj, and NXP.
