How Our Implantable Microchips Work
The FDX-B Technology Advantage
Our microchips utilize FDX-B (Full Duplex) communication, the ISO-standard protocol for animal RFID. This allows the chip to receive power and transmit its data packet back to the reader simultaneously, enabling fast and reliable reads.
The Implantation and Reading Process
- A veterinarian or trained professional implants the sterile microchip subcutaneously, typically between the animal’s shoulder blades, using a pre-loaded sterile applicator.
- The microchip lies dormant until activated by the low-frequency (134.2 kHz) electromagnetic field emitted by a compatible ISO reader.
- Once activated, the chip transmits its unique ID number. In temperature-sensing models, it also measures and transmits the current local body temperature.
- The reader decodes this signal, displaying the animal’s ID and temperature data, which can be recorded in management software for tracking and analysis.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is an RFID temperature sensor microchip?
It is a passive, implantable RFID device that combines a unique identification transponder with an integrated temperature sensor. When scanned by a compatible reader, it transmits both the animal’s ID and its current body temperature.
How does the temperature sensing microchip work?
The microchip contains specialized sensor circuitry. When activated by the reader’s signal, this circuitry measures the immediate ambient temperature at the implant site, which correlates to subcutaneous body temperature, and encodes this value into the data packet sent back to the reader.
Are your microchips globally readable?
Yes. Compliance with the ISO 11784/11785 FDX-B standard is the global benchmark for animal RFID. This ensures our microchips can be read by any ISO-compliant scanner worldwide, which is essential for international pet travel and livestock export/import protocols.
Is implantation safe for the animal?
Yes. The procedure is minimally invasive, similar to a standard vaccination. The bioglass encapsulation material is specifically chosen for its biocompatibility, meaning it is non-toxic, non-allergenic, and designed to be accepted by animal tissue with minimal reaction, allowing for safe, permanent residence.
