The ICODE SLIX-S IC is a dedicated chip for smart label applications with the need for a higher security level, larger memory and/or a product which takes care of the increasing demand for perfect customer privacy. This IC is the third generation of a product family of smart label ICs based on 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.
