How Converters Can Make RFID Labels

In the next article we will look further at how the converter can take more added value by replacing part of the inserts in their RFID labels with something they make themselves.

Part Two: Making the Antenna As Well

If RFID label converters wish to add value beyond simply protecting a fully working RFID insert, the key is to use a “strap.” Because integrated circuits are so small, connecting to them is difficult. Converters may wish to add value by printing the antenna of an RFID label onto plastic film or paper feedstock. But chip placement and connection can be troublesome, particularly with something as irregular as paper.
