Product details
Overview
RI-I02-114A-S1 from Texas Instruments is a passive 13.56 MHz HF RFID transponder inlay compliant with ISO/IEC 15693-2,-3 and ISO/IEC 18000-3 standards, featuring a 45 mm × 76 mm aluminum antenna on PET foil, 13.86 MHz ±200 kHz resonance frequency (tuned for paper integration), 94 dBµA/m typical read field strength, and 256-bit user EEPROM organized in eight 32-bit lockable blocks - deployed in asset tagging and electronic ticketing labels.
For engineers reviewing the RI-I02-114A-S1 datasheet, RI-I02-114A-S1 pinout, RI-I02-114A-S1 application, or RI-I02-114A-S1 equivalent, this inlay requires no external power, supports full-duplex ASK/FSK uplink communication, implements UID-based anticollision for multi-tag inventory, and delivers field-programmable memory with password-protected write capability - critical for label converters integrating into paper-based smart labels.
Technical Context
The RI-I02-114A-S1 integrates a flip-chip mounted microchip with a laser-trimmed aluminum capacitor formed across top and bottom PET foil layers, enabling per-device resonance tuning to compensate for detuning after lamination into paper substrates. Its passive architecture draws operating energy solely from the reader's RF field.
It supports ISO/IEC 15693 mandatory commands including Inventory, Read_Single_Block, Write_Single_Block, and Lock_Block, plus TI-custom Kill and WriteSingleBlockPwd commands. Communication uses frame-synchronized, CRC-secured ASK (downlink) and ASK/FSK (uplink) with selectable data rates.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Operating Frequency | 13.56 MHz carrier; passive resonance at 13.86 MHz ±200 kHz - tuned to offset detuning when laminated into paper. |
| Antenna Dimensions | 45 mm × 76 mm aluminum etch - optimized for read range and coupling efficiency on paper-based label stock. |
| Read Field Strength | 94 dBµA/m typical at 25°C - defines minimum reader field intensity required for reliable block reads. |
| User Memory | 256 bits (8 × 32-bit blocks) - fully programmable and individually lockable via UID-secured write commands. |
| UID Length | 64-bit factory-programmed and locked - enables deterministic anticollision and secure one-to-one addressing. |
| ESD Immunity | ≥3.5 kV HBM / ≥200 V MM - ensures robustness during high-speed label converting and die-cutting processes. |
| Operating Temp | –25°C to +70°C - validated for use in indoor logistics, access control, and transit ticketing environments. |
Pinout & Package
RI-I02-114A-S1 is a monolithic transponder inlay with no discrete pins or terminals. It consists of a silicon chip flip-chip bonded to a dual-layer aluminum antenna structure on 48 mm-wide PET tape, delivered on 76.2 mm (3") cardboard reels. Electrical interface is exclusively via inductive coupling to an external reader antenna.
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Laser-trimmed capacitor | Enables per-inlay resonance tuning to maintain 13.56 MHz operation after paper lamination - eliminates batch tuning. |
| Factory-locked 64-bit UID | Provides immutable, globally unique identification for secure anticollision and database traceability without host-side management. |
| Password-protected write | Allows reprogramming of locked memory blocks only after successful password authentication - prevents unauthorized data modification. |
| Full-duplex ASK/FSK uplink | Supports both high- and low-data-rate responses to match reader capabilities - ensures interoperability across global HF readers. |
| Chipless leader/trailer | Enables seamless high-speed reel-to-reel processing in label converters - eliminates manual splicing or scrap handling. |
Applications

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar HF RFID inlay applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| RI-I02-114B-S1 | Resonance tuned to 14.4 MHz ±200 kHz for PVC lamination - higher activation field strength (94 → 97 dBµA/m read). | Optimized for rigid plastic badges or laminated ID cards, not paper labels. | Select RI-I02-114B-S1 only when embedding into PVC or polycarbonate substrates requiring higher detuning compensation. |
| RI-I11-114A-S1 | Square 45 mm × 45 mm antenna; identical 13.86 MHz tuning and 94 dBµA/m read sensitivity - same paper-integration target. | Preferred for compact labels where aspect ratio must be near 1:1, e.g., small asset tags or wristband inserts. | Choose RI-I11-114A-S1 when mechanical fit constraints require square form factor without sacrificing paper-lamination performance. |
Compared with RI-I02-114A-S1, RI-I02-114B-S1 shifts resonance upward for PVC compatibility but increases required reader field strength, while RI-I11-114A-S1 maintains identical electrical specs in a square footprint - making both viable alternatives only when substrate or dimensional requirements differ.

FAQ
What is the primary mechanical form factor of the RI-I02-114A-S1?
The RI-I02-114A-S1 is a rectangular transponder inlay measuring 45 mm × 76 mm, fabricated on 48 mm-wide PET tape with aluminum antenna layers and delivered on 76.2 mm cardboard reels containing 5,000 units. It has no leads, pads, or connectors - interfacing solely via inductive coupling to an external reader antenna.
Does the RI-I02-114A-S1 support password-protected memory writes?
Yes, the RI-I02-114A-S1 supports the TI-custom WriteSingleBlockPwd command, which allows reprogramming of previously locked 32-bit memory blocks only after successful password authentication. This feature is implemented in hardware and requires the correct 64-bit password stored in dedicated memory locations.
How does the RI-I02-114A-S1 compensate for detuning when laminated into paper?
The RI-I02-114A-S1 uses a laser-trimmed dual-layer aluminum capacitor integrated into its PET foil structure. This enables per-device resonance tuning to 13.86 MHz ±200 kHz - a deliberate offset that counteracts the frequency shift caused by dielectric loading from paper lamination, maintaining optimal 13.56 MHz operation post-conversion.
What is the maximum number of RI-I02-114A-S1 inlays a reader can identify per second?
Under ideal conditions with compatible readers and antennas, the RI-I02-114A-S1 supports simultaneous identification of up to 50 tags per second using its ISO/IEC 15693-compliant anticollision protocol. Actual throughput depends on reader firmware, antenna design, and environmental RF noise - not on the inlay itself.
Is the RI-I02-114A-S1 suitable for direct integration into PVC-based ID cards?
No - the RI-I02-114A-S1 is specifically tuned for paper integration (13.86 MHz resonance). For PVC lamination, Texas Instruments specifies RI-I02-114B-S1, which uses a 14.4 MHz resonance offset to compensate for the higher dielectric constant of PVC. Using RI-I02-114A-S1 in PVC will result in degraded read range and reliability.
