Can phones read UHF RFID?
Sorry, Carl, that’s currently impossible, as there are no smartphones that contain an ultrahigh-frequency (UHF) reader. Some phones, such as Samsung’s Nexus S model, have a Near-Field Communication (NFC) reader in it. NFC is a short-range RFID technology that enables phones to read NFC tags.
How do I generate an RFID code?
Here’s how you do it.
- On the main screen, select “Basic RFID”.
- Once the tag has been read, select the EPC number that appears on screen.
- Then, select “Change EPC”.
- A screen will pop up with the existing EPC, and you can use your smartphone’s keypad to change the EPC number to whatever you prefer in the character limit.
What’s the difference between UHF and HF RFID readers?
A UHF RFID reader is a device using an Ultra-High Frequency (UHF) range, between 840 MHz and 960 MHz. Its extended read range compared to HF NFC readers enables one reader to interact with many tags at the same time, at a very high speed, within distances of tens of meters.
What kind of RFID reader does stmicroeleronics use?
ST25RU3993 is the latest UHF RFID RAIN© reader IC from our ST25RU Series. It provides multiprotocol support for the 840-960 MHz UHF band and follows GS1’s EPC UHF Gen2 air interface protocol.
What is the range of a RFID reader?
There are a variety of ranges and frequencies used for passive RFID, but the most common are: Low frequency: ~125 kHz. Typically has a range of a few centimeters High frequency: 13.56 MHz. Has a range of up to a meter Ultra-high frequency: ~865 MHz. Has a range of about 30 meters
What can you do with RFID access control?
RFID with access control can be a dry subject — but with some imagination, you can tailor it to different ideas. It does have some recreational applications, though. Take geocaching, for example, you can hide RFID tags that can open clues to other treasures. If you want to go even further, active RFID will broaden the horizon.
