Product details
Overview
RF-HDT-DVBB-N1 from Texas Instruments is a 13.56-MHz ISO/IEC 15693-2,-3 and ISO/IEC 18000-3 compliant encapsulated RFID transponder with 2048-bit user memory (64 × 32-bit blocks), factory-programmed 64-bit UID, IP68-rated PPS housing (ø22 mm × 3 mm), and guaranteed operation from –25°C to 90°C. It serves as a durable, read/write data carrier in industrial laundry tracking systems.
For engineers reviewing the RF-HDT-DVBB-N1 datasheet, RF-HDT-DVBB-N1 pinout, RF-HDT-DVBB-N1 application, or RF-HDT-DVBB-N1 equivalent, key selection criteria include its 13.56 MHz resonance frequency ±300 kHz, 112 dBµA/m typical read field strength requirement, 100,000 programming cycles, >10-year data retention, and simultaneous identification of up to 50 tags per second.
Technical Context
This transponder implements a passive, inductively coupled RF interface compliant with ISO/IEC 15693-3 physical layer and command set-including mandatory Inventory, Read_Single_Block, Write_Single_Block, Lock_Block, and Get_System_Info-plus TI-specific extensions like Write_2_Blocks. It operates without an internal power source, deriving energy from the reader's magnetic field.
Memory architecture includes factory-programmed UID (64 bits), DSFID and AFI fields, IC version identifier, and 2048-bit user area with per-block user/factory lock bits. Command execution supports addressed/non-addressed modes, AFI filtering, and combined inventory-read operations for high-throughput tag interrogation.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
RF-HDT-DVBB-N1 is a fully encapsulated, leadless RFID transponder with no electrical pins or terminals. It uses an integrated planar coil antenna embedded within a PPS (polyphenylsulfone) housing measuring ø22 ± 0.2 mm × 3 ± 0.2 mm. Electrical interface is exclusively via magnetic coupling to external reader antennas.
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| ISO/IEC 15693-2,-3 & 18000-3 Compliance | Guarantees interoperability with globally deployed HF RFID infrastructure and certified readers without protocol translation. |
| Per-Block User & Factory Lock | Enables selective write-protection of critical configuration (AFI/DSFID) while allowing dynamic updates to user data blocks. |
| Laser-Engraved UID + Factory Programming | Provides tamper-evident, non-erasable 64-bit unique identifier physically marked on housing and stored in ROM for traceability. |
| Laundry-Grade Mechanical Robustness | Validated to ISO 68.2.6 (vibration), ISO 68.2.27 (shock), and 45-bar isostatic pressure - survives >500 industrial wash cycles. |
| Combined Inventory Read Command | Reduces air-time by reading UID and first user block in single command - improves throughput in high-density tag environments. |
Applications
| Laundry Garment Tracking | Industrial Asset Management |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Embedded in uniforms, linens, or workwear undergoing repeated industrial washing, drying, and chemical exposure. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Passive RFID transponder storing garment ID, cycle count, and maintenance status; powered and interrogated by fixed-mount HF readers at wash tunnel exits. Use Value: Eliminates manual barcode scanning, reduces loss by >40%, and enables automated replacement scheduling based on wear metrics. | Use Scenario: Mounted on CNC tools, test fixtures, or calibration equipment moving between production cells and storage racks. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Durable data carrier holding calibration dates, usage hours, ownership, and repair history; read during tool check-in/out via handheld or portal readers. Use Value: Prevents use of out-of-calibration assets, enforces maintenance workflows, and reduces administrative overhead by 70%. |
| Product Authentication | Process Automation Monitoring |
Use Scenario: Integrated into high-value consumables (e.g., medical cartridges, branded filters) to verify origin and prevent counterfeiting. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Securely stores cryptographic challenge-response seeds or digital signatures; authenticated via reader-side verification against cloud database. Use Value: Blocks unauthorized refills or clones by validating firmware-signature chain before device activation. | Use Scenario: Attached to pallets or carriers moving through automated assembly lines with zone-based HF reader gates. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Provides real-time location and process step confirmation; updated with timestamped status (e.g., "welded", "inspected", "packed") at each station. Use Value: Enables closed-loop traceability, reduces WIP errors by 95%, and triggers automatic quality hold if sequence deviation detected. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar passive HF RFID transponder applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ST25DV02K-IER | 2-Kbit EEPROM, I²C + RF dual-interface, 13.56 MHz, 64-bit UID, but requires PCB mounting and external antenna; no IP68 rating. | Suitable for embedded PCB-level designs where space allows antenna integration, not for direct textile embedding or harsh fluid exposure. | Select when system-level control logic must co-reside on same board and dual-interface access is needed. |
| EM4423 | 2-Kbit memory, ISO 15693 compliant, ceramic encapsulation, but lacks factory-laser UID engraving and has lower mechanical robustness (no IP68, no 45-bar pressure rating). | Better suited for indoor logistics or library tagging where environmental stress is minimal and cost sensitivity is higher. | Select for budget-constrained, low-stress deployments where full laundry-grade durability is unnecessary. |
Compared with ST25DV02K-IER and EM4423, RF-HDT-DVBB-N1 uniquely combines factory-laser UID, IP68 sealing, 45-bar water resistance, and validated 500+ laundry cycles - making it the only option qualified for direct textile embedding in industrial cleaning environments.

FAQ
What is the operating temperature range of the RF-HDT-DVBB-N1?
The RF-HDT-DVBB-N1 is rated for continuous operation from –25°C to +90°C. This range covers industrial laundry processes including cold soak, hot wash (up to 90°C), steam ironing, and freezer storage. Performance validation includes parametric testing across this full span, with no derating required at endpoints.
Does RF-HDT-DVBB-N1 support ISO/IEC 14443 communication?
No, RF-HDT-DVBB-N1 does not support ISO/IEC 14443. It is strictly compliant with ISO/IEC 15693-2,-3 and ISO/IEC 18000-3 standards for vicinity cards and HF RFID systems. Its modulation scheme, data rate (26.48 kbps), and command set are incompatible with 14443-A/B protocols used in contactless smart cards.
How is the 64-bit UID programmed and protected on RF-HDT-DVBB-N1?
The 64-bit UID on RF-HDT-DVBB-N1 is factory-programmed during wafer test and permanently stored in ROM. It is also laser-engraved onto the black PPS housing for physical traceability. Neither the UID nor its storage location can be altered, overwritten, or erased - ensuring permanent uniqueness and anti-cloning assurance.
Can RF-HDT-DVBB-N1 be written to while submerged in water?
RF-HDT-DVBB-N1 maintains full IP68 ingress protection (45 bar for 10 hours), but RF coupling efficiency degrades significantly underwater due to dielectric absorption. While the device remains physically intact and electrically functional, reliable write operations require exposure to air or low-dielectric media; submersion during programming is not recommended or characterized.
What reader configuration is recommended for optimal RF-HDT-DVBB-N1 read range?
Texas Instruments recommends using ISO 15693 readers operating at ≥20% modulation depth and tuned to 13.56 MHz ±300 kHz. Antenna design should target near-field coupling (Q factor ~30–50); typical read range is 5–15 cm depending on antenna size, power, and orientation. Reader firmware must implement the Inventory command with AFI filtering for multi-tag environments.
