Those of us who have been close to the radio frequency identification industry for some time have gotten used to hearing that RFID was booming year after year, only to see adoption fail to grow as ...

UC San Diego has developed a system that uses analog sensors with a direct interface to RFID tags, making them passive sensor devices. The solution includes analog to digital conversion without ...

“We wondered whether we could repurpose RFID tags to do battery-free sensing and tracking,” says Nagarjun Bhat, a Ph.D. student in electrical engineering and lead author of a new study. Data is power.

The SSP1401 multichannel LRC sensor Interface chip provides a low-cost configurable interface for multiple sensors of various signal types. The device handles resistive-, capacitive-, inductive-, ...
