Tag ID (TID)

 

/

 

The Tag ID is a unique number written to each RFID Integrated Circuit chip at the time of manufacture in accordance with ISO/IEC 15963:2004

 

Tha abstract for this standards reads, in part:

 

... A unique ID is required as part of the write operation to RFID tags. The unique ID guarantees that the information written to a tag is unambiguously written to the correct data carrier (tag). A unique ID is also required in many read situations where the contents of the tag are tied to a specific item and that item needs to be unambiguously identified.

 

The unique ID may also be used

  • for the traceability of the integrated circuit itself for quality control in their manufacturing process;

  • for the traceability of the RF tag during its manufacturing process and along its lifetime;

  • for the completion of the reading in a multi-antenna configuration;

  • by the anti-collision mechanism, to inventory multiple tags in the reader's field of view;

  • for the traceability of the item to which the RF tag is attached.
