RFID Temperature Sensor Microchip for Animal Identification & Health Monitoring
Product Overview
Advance from simple identification to intelligent animal management. The RFID Temperature Sensor Microchip is a passive, implantable device that combines the proven reliability of ISO-standard RFID with integrated sensing technology. This dual-function chip delivers both a permanent unique identification number (UID) and accurate body temperature readings, providing a complete tool for traceability and proactive health oversight.
From Identification to Insight
This product represents the evolution of animal microchipping, adding actionable health data to the foundational need for permanent ID. It enables professionals to gather a key vital sign without additional handling or stress, transforming a routine identification check into a comprehensive health assessment.
Key Features & Benefits
Dual-Function Technology
Unique UID Identification: Each chip contains an unalterable, globally unique number for lifetime animal identity, ensuring reliable traceability for pets and livestock.
Integrated Temperature Sensor: The embedded sensor enables rapid, non-invasive temperature measurement, facilitating early detection of fever, infection, or physiological stress.
Designed for Professional Use
ISO 11784/11785 FDX-B Compliant: Manufactured to the international standard for animal radiofrequency identification, guaranteeing interoperability with existing reader infrastructure.
Biocompatible Bioglass Encapsulation: The chip is hermetically sealed in medical-grade bioglass, ensuring safety, stability, and tissue compatibility for the life of the animal.
Compact Implantable Format: With dimensions of 1.4mm in diameter and 8.5mm in length, it is designed for minimally invasive implantation using standard veterinary syringe applicators.
How It Works: Identification & Sensing in One Chip
The Power of FDX-B Technology
The chip utilizes Full Duplex (FDX-B) communication, allowing it to transmit data continuously while powered by the reader’s signal. This protocol is ideal for simultaneously broadcasting both the identification code and the sensor-derived temperature value.
The Reading Process
- A compatible ISO 11785 FDX-B reader is brought near the implanted animal.
- The reader’s electromagnetic field energizes the passive microchip.
- The chip powers its internal circuitry, including the temperature sensor.
- It instantly transmits its unique ID code and the current temperature measurement.
- The reader decodes and displays both data points for the user.
Primary Applications & Use Cases
Veterinary Medicine
Streamline clinical workflows by performing identification and temperature checks in one seamless scan. Ideal for routine examinations, post-operative monitoring, and managing the health of animals in boarding or shelter environments.
Livestock Management & Farming
Enable early illness detection within herds, such as identifying bovine respiratory disease. Monitor for stress indicators during transport, environmental changes, or parturition to support animal welfare and productivity.
Pet Ownership & Safety
Enhance pet recovery systems by linking a permanent digital identity with health data. Provides breeders and owners of high-value or sensitive animals with a tool for closer health monitoring.

FAQ: RFID Temperature Sensor Microchips
What is an RFID temperature sensor microchip?
It is a passive, implantable device that uses RFID technology to transmit both a unique identification number and the animal’s current body temperature when scanned by a compatible reader.
How does the temperature measurement work?
The microchip contains a miniaturized sensor. When activated by the reader’s energy field, it measures the local temperature at the implant site and transmits this digital value along with its ID code.
Is it compatible with my existing FDX-B reader?
Yes. As a fully ISO 11784/11785 FDX-B compliant device, it will be detected and read by any standard animal FDX-B reader. The temperature data is encoded within the standard transmission protocol.
Is implantation safe for the animal?
Yes. The chip is encapsulated in biocompatible bioglass, the same material used for standard pet microchips. It is implanted subcutaneously via a sterile, pre-loaded syringe by a trained professional, such as a veterinarian.
