There are no external components, except for the antenna. The passive IC's power supply is taken from the energy of the received RF electromagnetic field with the help of a Schottky diode rectifier. The RFID analog front end includes a local oscillator, clock generator, power on reset circuit, matching network and backscatter,rectifier,regulator, and AM demodulator. The IC, whose reading distance is more than 3m,is fabricated with a Chartered 0.35μm two-poly four-metal CMOS process with Schottky diodes and is EEPROM supported. The core size is 300μm × 720μm.展开更多
