Ultra-high Frequency (UHF)

NXP UCODE Logo

Retailers and brand owners can be more responsive and make better decisions with real-time information about the location of products—in the distribution center, on the shelf, in a fitting room or being purchased. Our UCODE ICs provide this data with fast, accurate and low-cost tracking of items.

Built into smart labels, UCODE delivers high-speed operation in supply-chain and logistics applications. UCODE-based labels provide higher anti-collision rates that improve accuracy, higher sensitivity to extend read range and wider frequency range of up to 15 meters.

Enhanced security for long-range applications

In addition to the UCODE performance, the UCODE DNA ICs add cryptographic security implementations for tag authentication. UCODE DNA combines innovative functionality, AES authentication, trust provisioning and privacy features with long read ranges. Smart City applications such as automatic vehicle identification, access control, brand protection and asset tracking can benefit from secure, long-range contactless performance.

RAIN RFID Technology

RAIN RFID is a global alliance promoting the universal adoption of UHF RFID technology. RAIN RFID uses the GS1 UHF Gen2 protocol which ISO/IEC has standardized as 18000-63. The word RAIN—an acronym derived from Radio frequency IdentificatioN—is intended as a nod to the link between UHF RFID and the cloud, where RFID-based data can be stored, managed and shared via the Internet.

NXP is an active member of the RAIN Alliance. Discover more.

RAIN RFID Ecosystem

NXP delivers RAIN RFID technology to major label converters, tag and reader manufacturers, solutions providers and system integrators around the world.
