What is a semi-active RFID that can transmit radio waves for long-distance communication when necessary?
Our company, a development manufacturer, provides a simple explanation of semi-active tags that combine the features of passive and active tags! Customization is also available!
RFID stands for Radio Frequency Identification, which is a general term for communication and authentication technology using radio waves. When it comes to IC tags used in RFID, familiar examples include "passive tags" like Suica and ICOCA, which do not have batteries. They are activated through electromagnetic induction when brought close to a reader/writer. On the other hand, IC tags with built-in batteries are referred to as "active tags." Because they have their own power source, they can transmit signals periodically. The IC tags used in our semi-active RFID combine the features of both the aforementioned "passive tags" and "active tags," and are known as "semi-active tags." 【Features】 ■ Built-in battery IC tag ■ Ultra low power consumption ■ Mobile object detection and batch reading capabilities - Race timing - School commute monitoring ■ Accurate location detection - Hands-free entry and exit management *For more details, please refer to the external link or feel free to contact us.

Company information
We propose equipment configurations tailored to our customers. If you have any challenges you would like to address, please feel free to consult with us. Let's think together about the best choices. 【Greetings】 In 1993, we encountered IC tags and believed that evolving this IC tag into a Matrix original was essential for our unique development. After much trial and error, we completed the semi-active IC tag (POWERTAG) in 1999, and began operations that year, marking the second founding period of Matrix. Currently, our product "POWERTAG" is used for various purposes, including competitive sports, entry and exit security, and safety management. We will continue our efforts in ideas, research, and development without pause to meet all kinds of needs.
