SMARTRAC Introduces Midas(TM) NFC Tag
Amsterdam, April 19, 2012 - SMARTRAC N.V., the leading developer,
manufacturer and supplier of RFID transponders and inlays, today announced
availability of the new Midas(TM) near field communication (NFC) tag.
The SMARTRAC Midas(TM) NFC tag is ideally suited to link small objects with
cloud services. Due to its small footprint, the tag can be easily attached
to electronics and various accessories allowing for a unique identification
of the object while at the same time granting access to a broad range of
services and options residing in the cloud. The Midas(TM) NFC tag is also
well suited for applications where inlays are embedded with limited space
available for housing such as electronics pairing, NFC-Bluetooth pairing,
brand authentication, toy figures, and key fobs.
Technical features of the SMARTRAC Midas(TM) NFC tag:
- Antenna size 10 x 17 mm / 0.39 x 0.67 in
- Die-cut size 12 x 19 mm / 0.47 x 0.75 in
- Memory: 144 bytes, unique ID number (UID)
- NFC Forum Tag Type 2 compliance
- Ideal for NFC tagging of products with space restrictions, such as
electronics and cosmetics
The Midas(TM) NFC tag has been cross-tested and qualified by major NFC
smartphone brands. Midas(TM) NFC tags are immediately available in sampling
volumes for testing. Volume deliveries will start at the end of June 2012.
