Product details
Overview
RI-I03-114A-01 from Texas Instruments is a passive 13.56-MHz ISO/IEC 15693-2, -3 and ISO/IEC 18000-3 compliant RFID transponder inlay with 256-bit user memory (8 blocks × 32-bit), factory-programmed 64-bit UID, and Application Family Identifier (AFI). It features fast simultaneous identification for up to 50 tags/sec and is laser-tuned for consistent read performance in paper or PVC lamination.
For engineers reviewing the RI-I03-114A-01 datasheet, RI-I03-114A-01 antenna dimensions, RI-I03-114A-01 memory organization, or RI-I03-114A-01 equivalent, key selection considerations include passive HF operation at 13.56 MHz, 22.5 mm × 38.0 mm aluminum antenna footprint, 107 dBµA/m typical read field strength, AFI support, and 100,000 write cycles - all validated for library, asset tracking, and ticketing applications.
Technical Context
The RI-I03-114A-01 implements ISO/IEC 15693-3 mandatory commands including Inventory, Read_Single_Block, Write_Single_Block, and Lock_Block, with optional AFI and Stay Quiet support. Its passive resonance frequency is 13.86 MHz ±200 kHz to compensate for substrate integration effects.
Memory is organized as eight 32-bit blocks with dedicated lock bits per block and a factory-programmed 64-bit UID. The aluminum antenna on PET substrate measures 22.5 mm × 38.0 mm and operates across –25°C to 70°C, with data retention exceeding 10 years at 55°C.
Key Specifications

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| RI-I03-114A-02 | Same die and antenna design; differs only in reel packaging quantity (2500 vs. 5000 units/reel) and hub diameter (50.8 mm vs. 76.2 mm). | No functional difference; intended for smaller-volume pilot deployments or space-constrained reel handling. | Select RI-I03-114A-02 when reel logistics or initial validation volume require lower unit count per reel. |
| RI-I03-114B-01 | Uses copper antenna instead of aluminum; identical memory, UID, AFI, and command set; same 22.5 mm × 38.0 mm outline but different RF impedance profile. | Better suited for metal-proximate environments due to higher conductivity; requires reader retuning for optimal read range. | Choose RI-I03-114B-01 only when deploying near metallic surfaces where aluminum antenna performance degrades. |
Compared with RI-I03-114A-02 and RI-I03-114B-01, the RI-I03-114A-01 offers optimized aluminum antenna performance on paper/PVC substrates with industry-standard reel configuration - making it the reference choice for high-volume label conversion where cost, consistency, and compatibility are prioritized.

FAQ
Is RI-I03-114A-01 still in production?
Yes, RI-I03-114A-01 remains in production per TI's official packaging addendum, though marked "Not Recommended for New Designs" and "OBSOLETE" in orderable status. TI continues full functional and parametric testing before shipment, and Aetrix Electronics maintains active inventory with traceable sourcing and lifecycle coordination support for ongoing programs.
What is the antenna material and substrate of RI-I03-114A-01?
The RI-I03-114A-01 uses an aluminum antenna patterned on a PET (polyethyleneterephthalate) substrate. This combination provides mechanical flexibility, low cost, and stable HF performance after lamination into paper or PVC - verified by TI's laser tuning process and documented in the SCBS821C datasheet.
Does RI-I03-114A-01 support anti-collision, and how many tags can it handle simultaneously?
Yes, RI-I03-114A-01 supports Fast Simultaneous Identification per ISO/IEC 15693-3, enabling up to 50 tags per second to be identified in a single reader field. Performance depends on reader capability and antenna geometry, but the RI-I03-114A-01's command set and tuned resonance ensure reliable arbitration under dense tag conditions.
Can the memory of RI-I03-114A-01 be locked, and how is it structured?
Yes, RI-I03-114A-01 provides lock bits for each of its eight 32-bit user memory blocks. Locking is performed via the Lock_Block command (0x22), and once set, a block cannot be rewritten without physical destruction of the inlay. The 64-bit UID and AFI are factory-programmed and permanently read-only.
What environmental conditions is RI-I03-114A-01 rated for?
RI-I03-114A-01 is specified for operating temperatures from –25°C to 70°C and storage (single inlay) from –40°C to 85°C. Warpage may occur above 70°C during storage; for reel storage, the limit is –40°C to 40°C. These ratings are validated per TI's production test protocol and reflect real-world performance in laminated label applications.
