Product details
Overview
RI-TRP-DR2B-30 from Texas Instruments is a 32 mm hermetically sealed glass LF RFID transponder operating at 134.2 kHz, compliant with ISO/IEC 11784/11785, supporting MPT (Multi-Packet Transmission) with 1360-bit memory, HDX half-duplex communication, and batteryless operation via reader-coupled power. It is used in container tracking, asset management, and waste management systems requiring stable read/write performance in non-metallic environments.
For engineers reviewing the RI-TRP-DR2B-30 datasheet, RI-TRP-DR2B-30 application, RI-TRP-DR2B-30 equivalent, or RI-TRP-DR2B-30 operating frequency and memory configuration, this page delivers verified technical context, pinout-free package details, real-world use cases, and validated alternative transponders for ISO-compliant LF RFID system design.
Technical Context
The RI-TRP-DR2B-30 implements HDX (Half-Duplex) transmission using FSK modulation at 134.2 kHz / 123.2 kHz, enabling reliable bidirectional communication without an internal power source. Its patented tuning process ensures consistent resonance and impedance matching across temperature extremes (–25°C to +85°C for read and program operations).
It features 1360-bit MPT memory organized into 17 read/write pages, with 24-bit selective address width and CRC-protected data integrity. The transponder is powered solely by the reader's RF field and exhibits immunity to electromagnetic interference and x-ray exposure per TI-RFID™ specifications.
Key Specifications

Applications
| Container Tracking | Asset Management |
|---|---|
Use Scenario: Monitoring intermodal shipping containers across ports, rail yards, and depots using fixed or handheld LF RFID readers. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Passive identification element storing unique container ID and status flags; activated only during reader interrogation. Use Value: Enables automated, contactless verification without line-of-sight or battery replacement, reducing manual scanning errors and labor costs. | Use Scenario: Tagging high-value industrial tools, calibration equipment, or medical devices for lifecycle tracking and maintenance scheduling. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Read/write memory node storing usage logs, calibration dates, and ownership history; updated during depot check-ins. Use Value: Supports traceable audit trails and prevents loss through real-time location awareness in non-metallic storage cabinets or tool cribs. |
| Waste Management | Vehicle Identification |
Use Scenario: Embedding in underground waste bins or recycling containers to log fill levels, collection frequency, and route optimization data. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: MPT-configured transponder storing dynamic payload (e.g., weight timestamp, fill percentage) written by municipal reader units. Use Value: Allows intelligent fleet routing and predictive servicing by capturing time-stamped operational data without onboard power or connectivity. | Use Scenario: Mounting on vehicle undercarriages or chassis for automated tolling, parking access, or fleet yard entry control. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: ISO-compliant identification tag interrogated by ground-mounted LF antennas; supports HDX handshake for anti-collision in multi-vehicle zones. Use Value: Delivers reliable recognition in dirty, wet, or vibration-prone conditions where optical or UHF systems fail due to metal interference or orientation sensitivity. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar LF RFID transponder applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| RI-TRP-IR2B-30 | SAMPT (Self-Addressing Multi-Packet Transmission) variant with identical 1360-bit memory and HDX protocol but different packet addressing logic. | Preferred when reader firmware supports SAMPT auto-addressing; requires compatible reader stack. | Select RI-TRP-IR2B-30 only if existing infrastructure leverages TI's SAMPT command set; otherwise, RI-TRP-DR2B-30 offers broader MPT reader compatibility. |
| RI-TRP-WR2B-30 | 80-bit read/write memory (1 page), no MPT support; faster programming time (309 ms vs. 293 ms) but limited data capacity. | Suitable for simple ID-only or short-metadata use cases; insufficient for multi-field or timestamped payloads. | Choose RI-TRP-WR2B-30 for cost-sensitive, low-data-volume deployments; RI-TRP-DR2B-30 is required for structured, extensible data logging. |
Compared with RI-TRP-IR2B-30 and RI-TRP-WR2B-30, the RI-TRP-DR2B-30 provides standardized MPT framing for interoperable multi-packet reads/writes, making it the preferred choice for scalable, future-proof asset tracking systems requiring field-upgradable data structures.

FAQ
What is the operating frequency of the RI-TRP-DR2B-30 and why does it matter?
The RI-TRP-DR2B-30 operates at 134.2 kHz, the globally harmonized low-frequency band for ISO/IEC 11784/11785-compliant RFID systems. This frequency enables deep penetration through water, tissue, and non-metallic materials while minimizing interference from metal objects-making the RI-TRP-DR2B-30 ideal for embedded tagging in containers, vehicles, and waste bins where UHF signals would fail.
How much memory does the RI-TRP-DR2B-30 have, and how is it structured?
The RI-TRP-DR2B-30 contains 1360 bits of MPT (Multi-Packet Transmission) memory, organized into 17 read/write pages. Each page supports structured data packets with CRC protection. This architecture allows flexible, extensible data storage-such as timestamps, sensor readings, or maintenance logs-without requiring custom firmware changes in the reader system.
Is the RI-TRP-DR2B-30 suitable for outdoor or harsh environments?
Yes-the RI-TRP-DR2B-30 is hermetically sealed in borosilicate glass with dimensions Φ3.85 ± 0.05 mm × 32.2 ± 0.6 mm, rated for –25°C to +85°C operation and compliant with IEC 68-2-27 mechanical shock and IEC 68-2-6 vibration standards. Its glass body resists moisture, corrosion, and sterilization processes, making the RI-TRP-DR2B-30 appropriate for buried, submerged, or chemically exposed deployments.
Does the RI-TRP-DR2B-30 require a battery or external power source?
No-the RI-TRP-DR2B-30 is a passive transponder powered entirely by the electromagnetic field generated by an ISO-compliant LF RFID reader. It contains no battery, enabling maintenance-free, multi-decade operation in sealed or inaccessible locations-key for long-life asset tagging applications where the RI-TRP-DR2B-30 is deployed.
What is the difference between MPT and SAMPT in TI's transponder family?
MPT (Multi-Packet Transmission) in the RI-TRP-DR2B-30 uses standardized packet framing for interoperable multi-page reads/writes across vendor-neutral readers. SAMPT (Self-Addressing MPT), used in RI-TRP-IR2B-30, adds autonomous address resolution-reducing reader-side processing but requiring SAMPT-aware firmware. The RI-TRP-DR2B-30 prioritizes broad compatibility over proprietary optimization.
