Product Overview

The DO RFID Reader high-temperature PCB NFC tag combines a durable printed circuit board substrate with an ICODE SLIX-S chip to deliver reliable near-field communication in demanding environments. With a compact diameter of 9.6 mm and an operating frequency of 13.56 MHz, this tag is engineered for applications where space is limited and thermal resistance is non-negotiable. Industrial buyers, system integrators, and OEM manufacturers choose this tag for its ability to withstand soldering processes and high-temperature exposure while maintaining consistent read performance.

This tag addresses a specific commercial problem: the need for a small-form-factor NFC identifier that survives reflow soldering, autoclave sterilization, or sustained heat exposure without delamination or chip failure. For procurement teams managing electronic toothbrush component tracking, laundry automation, or factory asset identification, the 9.6 mm PCB NFC tag provides a proven solution that integrates cleanly into existing production lines and inventory systems.

Product Advantages

• Compact form factor for space-constrained applications: The 9.6 mm outer diameter and 6.2 mm inner diameter allow embedding into small consumer electronics, medical device components, and industrial consumables where larger tags would not fit.
• High-temperature tolerance for manufacturing integration: Withstands 200 °C for two hours and 260 °C for 10–30 seconds, making it compatible with standard SMT reflow processes and industrial curing cycles.
• Advanced data security and privacy features: The ICODE SLIX-S chip supports password-protected read/write access, privacy mode, tag destruction, and EAS/AFI functions, giving system integrators granular control over data access and anti-counterfeiting measures.
• Reliable read range for close-proximity applications: Approximately 1–10 mm reading distance is optimized for single-item identification, verification, and authentication scenarios common in electronics manufacturing and healthcare.
• RoHS, REACH, and CE compliance: Certification supports global distribution and deployment in regulated industries including medical devices, consumer electronics, and industrial automation.

Key Features

• Contactless data transmission and energy supply at 13.56 MHz
• Data transfer rate of 53 kbit/s
• 16-bit CRC and framing for data integrity
• UID cannot be modified, ensuring tag uniqueness and traceability
• Password-protected storage management for read/write access control (1 page = 4 blocks, 4 bytes each)
• Tag destruction command with 32-bit password (DESTROY SLIX-S) – irreversible state, no further command response
• Privacy mode with 32-bit password (ENABLE PRIVACY) – tag ignores all commands except GET RANDOM NUMBER until correct password is received
• EAS and AFI functions with password protection – EAS status, EAS ID, and/or AFI values can only be modified after authentication
• Thickness of 0.05–0.07 mm for low-profile embedding
• Operating temperature range of -30 °C to +85 °C

Technical Specifications

Industrial Applications

The 9.6 mm PCB NFC tag supports a range of commercial and industrial use cases where small size, heat resistance, and data security are critical requirements.

• Electronic toothbrush and personal care appliance manufacturing: OEM and ODM manufacturers embed this tag into handles and replacement heads for brand authentication, consumable tracking, and usage monitoring. The high-temperature tolerance allows the tag to survive reflow soldering and ultrasonic welding processes common in appliance assembly.
• Library and media management: System integrators deploy these tags for item-level identification of books, CDs, and archival materials where thin, rigid tags are preferred over flexible labels for durability and longevity.
• Factory automation and asset tracking: Industrial production lines use the tag to identify tools, jigs, and work-in-progress components through high-temperature cleaning, paint curing, or sterilization cycles. The read range of 1–10 mm suits conveyor-based verification stations and handheld readers.
• Laundry and textile identification: Commercial laundry operations and uniform rental services rely on the tag’s ability to withstand repeated washing, drying, and pressing cycles at elevated temperatures. The rigid PCB construction resists mechanical stress better than standard paper or PET labels.
• Chip consumables and accessory identification: Printer cartridge manufacturers, medical device consumable suppliers, and industrial chemical container producers use the tag for anti-counterfeiting and supply chain authentication. The password-protected memory prevents unauthorized duplication of high-value consumables.
• Healthcare and medical device tracking: The tag’s tolerance for autoclave temperatures and chemical exposure makes it suitable for tracking surgical instruments, sterilization trays, and single-use medical components through reprocessing workflows.

OEM / ODM Manufacturing Support

DO RFID Reader offers comprehensive OEM and ODM services for project buyers who need customized NFC tags for volume deployment. The factory supports custom chip encoding, memory pre-programming, logo printing, and packaging formats tailored to automated assembly or manual application workflows.

For OEM clients, the 9.6 mm PCB NFC tag can be supplied with specific UID ranges, pre-locked memory blocks, or custom password configurations to match existing backend inventory systems. ODM clients may request modifications to substrate material, thickness tolerance, or adhesive backing for non-standard surface mounting requirements.

The production facility operates with batch consistency verification using calibrated RFID test equipment. Each production lot undergoes read range validation, frequency response testing, and visual inspection before shipment. This process ensures that distributors and system integrators receive tags with predictable performance across large-scale deployments spanning thousands or millions of units.

Factory Production Advantages

DO RFID Reader operates a dedicated NFC tag production line with stable manufacturing capacity for both standard catalog products and custom OEM/ODM projects. The factory maintains buffer stock of commonly specified components including the ICODE SLIX-S chip and high-temperature PCB substrate materials, reducing lead time variability for repeat orders.

For wholesale buyers and long-term distribution partners, the factory offers tiered pricing based on annual volume commitments, scheduled production slots, and consignment inventory arrangements. This structure supports predictable supply chain planning for integrators managing multi-year infrastructure projects in healthcare, manufacturing, and consumer electronics.

The factory’s quality management system includes incoming material inspection, in-process electrical testing, and final packaging verification. Export documentation, commercial invoices, and compliance declarations are provided with each shipment to support customs clearance and regulatory acceptance across global markets.

Bulk Supply & Project Deployment Support

Project contractors and system integrators benefit from the factory’s ability to deliver consistent tag performance across phased deployments. Whether purchasing 10,000 units for a pilot installation or 1,000,000 units for a nationwide rollout, the production process maintains the same material specifications, tuning parameters, and quality thresholds.

For large-scale deployment scenarios, DO RFID Reader provides technical documentation including tag integration guides, recommended reader configurations, and antenna placement recommendations. This support reduces engineering time during system commissioning and helps integrators achieve reliable read rates from the first installation.

Distributors and wholesalers can request customized packaging options such as reel packaging for automated placement, individual blister packs for retail presentation, or bulk carton packaging for volume distribution. The factory coordinates with logistics partners to offer consolidated shipping for multi-item orders, reducing per-unit freight costs for international buyers.
