  • No Battery uses the RF singal as quick voltage source
    • Uses the scanner to modify and reflect the data.

Use the carrier frequency and some modulation to send information back to the reader. send data back, the tag switches its load on and off at 848 kHz (1/16 of the carrier frequency), producing a subcarrier on top of the reader's signal.

  • Contains a Smart Card
    • Digital Signature Authentication
    • Encrypted
    • Can be added to a Smart Phone

DST (134 kHz)

ISO/IEC 14443
