HF ICODE SLIX-L

ICODE is the industry standard for high-frequency (HF) smart label solutions operating on 13,56Mhz supporting ISO 15693/ISO 18000-3 compliant infrastructure. The ICODE platform with its billions of ICs in the field used in thousands successful installations globally represents by far the largest installed base in this area. ICODE is an open platform, available to any company who wants to develop, market and sell ICODE-compatible products and services. Thanks to our Open Value Chain Strategy, NXP? is your ideal partner to deliver benchmark RFID solutions globally - whether you're a smart label manufacturer, component supplier or system integrator.

The ICODE SLIX-L IC is a dedicated chip for smart label applications with the need for a leaner custom-specific command set, smaller memory and/or a product which takes care of the increasing demand for perfect customer privacy. This IC is another member of our ICODE SLIX product family that is fully compliant with the ISO standards ISO/IEC 15693 (Ref. 1) and ISO/IEC 18000-3 (Ref. 4), prolonging a successful story of NXP in the field of vicinity identification systems.

The ICODE system offers the possibility of operating labels simultaneously in the field of the reader antenna (anticollision). It is designed for long range applications.
