Identiv, Inc. (NASDAQ: INVE), a global leader in RFID and BLE-enabled Internet of Things (IoT) solutions, announced its portfolio of next-generation, high-frequency (HF) near field communication (NFC)-enabled inlays, designed to power and support innovative IoT applications.

Identiv’s ID-Tune I3 and ID-Safe I3 NFC tags are the first to feature NXP® Semiconductors’ ICODE 3 chip, delivering superior radio frequency (RF) performance, faster reading speed, reliable tag protection and enhanced NFC features. ID-Safe tags additionally come with first opening indication (conductive tamper loop).

These inlays are ideally suited for applications demanding high performance, operational efficiency, and data protection.

NXP’s ICODE® 3 chip, purpose-built for IoT applications, powers Identiv’s latest inlay family to offer advanced features tailored for sectors such as healthcare, logistics, industrial, smart packaging, specialty retail, and more.

Key Features of Identiv’s ICODE® 3-Based Inlays

  • ISO/IEC 15693 and NFC Forum Type 5 Tag compliance: Ensures compatibility across devices
  • High-speed read rate (ISO/IEC 15693) : Up to 212kbit/s (ISO 15693) for faster data processing
  • One-lock memory encoding: Simplifies and accelerates inlay deployment
  • Customizable originality signature: 32 or 48 bytes t for validation of tag origin
  • SELFAdjust technology: First HF chip automatically optimizing RF performance to increase readability across different materials and environments
  • Enhanced privacy: Two password-protected modes ensure non-traceability of tags
  • Enhanced NFC features for serialized, dynamic and contextual messaging upon an NFC phone tap
“We’re thrilled to expand our partnership with NXP through the launch of our newest product families, ID-Tune and ID-Safe, featuring NXP’s ICODE® 3 technology. These advanced NFC inlays deliver unmatched performance, supporting specialized and complex IoT applications that continue to drive the IoT ecosystem forward.”

Versatility for a Wide Range of IoT Applications

The ID-Tune I3 and ID-Safe I3 NFC inlays excel in both vicinity range (up to 1.5 meters) and close-range interactions. In the vicinity range, enhanced readability, material compatibility, and rapid data transfer enable seamless integration and improve operational efficiency. For close-range applications, features like first-opening indication and flexible counters enhance user engagement and product interactivity.

In healthcare, they support applications such as diagnostics, monitoring, therapy, and home medical devices. Other sectors include logistics, wine and spirits, specialty retail, smart home devices, and smart packaging.
