SL3FCS1001FV: SL3ICS10 UCODE^® EPC G2

2.1 Key features

• Interface fully compatible with UHF EPC G2 standard
• Long-range solutions
• Suitable for UHF RFID, allowing one IC to be used worldwide
• Fast data rate
• Forward link: 40 - 160 kbits/s
• Return link: 40 - 640 kbits/s
• 512 bit of on-chip memory
• 96 bit EPC
• 64 bit tag Identifier
• 224 bit programmable user memory
• 32 bit access password
• 32 bit kill password
• Runs on the same hardware infrastructure as the UCODE^® HSL and the UCODE EPC1.19

Key benefits

• Tags / labels and readers available from various suppliers
• First UHF EPC product operating worldwide
• Highly advanced anti-collision resulting in highest identification speed
• Reliable and robust RFID technology suitable for dense reader and noisy environment
• Secure UHF communication; readers do not transmit EPC data
• Broadest industry back-up – EPCglobal and ISO 18000-6C
• Reader portfolio covers all regional demands

RF Interface Features

• Contact-less transmission of data and supply energy (no battery needed)
• Long-range operating distance
• Operating frequency within the released operating bands from 860 MHz to 960 MHz
• High data integrity: 16 bit CRC, framing
• High anti-collision and inventory speed
• Data rates:
  • R -> T: 40 – 160 kbps,
  • T -> R: 40 – 465 kbps (Divide ratio DR = 8) or 95 – 640 kbps (DR = 64/3)
• Uses a slotted random anti-collision algorithm where the UCODE EPC G2 IC loads a random (or pseudo-random) number into a slot counter, decrement this slot counter based on interrogator commands, and reply to the interrogator when their slot counter reaches zero. Supports the full mandatory command set as well as optional and Customer commands according to the standard

Memory Features

• 96 bit EPC numbers supported
• 64 bit tag identifier (TID)
• 32 bit kill password to permanently disable the tag
• 32 bit access password to allow a transition into the secured transmission state
• 224 bit user memory with free definable memory organization
• Inventoried flags and selected flag support the handling of persistence information

Security Features

• Lock mechanism (write protection) for individual passwords and individual memory banks allow for permanent lock (permalock) status of a password or memory bank.

• Supply Chain Management
• Asset Management
• Container Identification
• Pallet & Case Tracking
