Product details
Overview
RI-TRP-RR2B-30 from Texas Instruments is a 32-mm hermetically sealed glass LF RFID transponder operating at 134.2 kHz, compliant with ISO 11784/11785, featuring 1360-bit MPT memory, HDX (half-duplex) transmission, and batteryless operation powered by reader field coupling. It delivers stable read/write performance in access control, vehicle ID, and asset tracking systems.
For engineers reviewing the RI-TRP-RR2B-30 datasheet, RI-TRP-RR2B-30 application, RI-TRP-RR2B-30 equivalent, or RI-TRP-RR2B-30 physical dimensions, this page provides verified technical context, pinout-free package details, real-world use cases, and validated alternative transponders for low-frequency RFID system design and deployment.
Technical Context
This transponder implements TI's patented half-duplex (HDX) communication protocol, using frequency shift keying (FSK) modulation between 134.2 kHz and 123.2 kHz to enable robust bidirectional data exchange without an onboard power source. Its resonant LC circuit is precisely tuned during manufacturing to ensure consistent coupling efficiency across varying reader antenna configurations.
The device operates within 0–70°C for programming and –25–85°C for reading, with hermetic glass encapsulation providing IP68-level environmental protection. Its 17-page, selectively addressable memory supports secure, page-level write operations-critical for tamper-resistant identification in industrial and municipal applications like waste container tagging.

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-DR2B-40 | Same 32-mm glass form factor, identical 134.2 kHz HDX operation and 1360-bit MPT memory; differs only in orderable suffix (-40 vs -30) and marking. | No functional difference; both qualified for ISO 11784/11785 access control and asset ID. | Select RI-TRP-DR2B-40 if requiring TI's standard production marking (RI-TRP-DR2B-40.B) and large-tape-and-reel packaging (2000 pcs). |
| EM4102-32 | 125 kHz, read-only (no write capability), 128-bit EM-Marine protocol; lacks HDX, multipage addressing, and ISO 11785 compliance. | Suitable only for basic read-only ID in non-secure, low-data applications like simple door fobs. | Choose EM4102-32 only for cost-sensitive, legacy 125 kHz systems where programmability and ISO compliance are not required. |
Compared with RI-TRP-DR2B-40, RI-TRP-RR2B-30 shares identical electrical, mechanical, and protocol specifications-differing solely in ordering designation and packaging configuration. Against EM4102-32, RI-TRP-RR2B-30 enables secure, field-updatable identification with full ISO standard support, making it suitable for regulated, high-integrity applications.

FAQ
What is the operating frequency of the RI-TRP-RR2B-30 transponder?
The RI-TRP-RR2B-30 operates at 134.2 kHz, fully complying with ISO 11784 and ISO 11785 standards for low-frequency RFID systems. This frequency ensures reliable coupling with standard LF reader antennas and immunity to interference from common industrial RF sources, making RI-TRP-RR2B-30 ideal for fixed-mount and mobile identification applications.
Is the RI-TRP-RR2B-30 compatible with ISO 11784/11785 readers?
Yes, the RI-TRP-RR2B-30 is explicitly certified compliant with both ISO 11784 (coding structure) and ISO 11785 (communication protocol) standards. Its HDX modulation scheme, 134.2 kHz carrier, and 1360-bit MPT memory format ensure seamless interoperability with all commercially available ISO-compliant LF readers used in animal ID, vehicle access, and municipal asset tracking systems.
Does the RI-TRP-RR2B-30 require a battery or external power source?
No, the RI-TRP-RR2B-30 is a fully passive transponder powered entirely by electromagnetic energy harvested from the reader's RF field. It contains no battery, enabling maintenance-free operation for decades under proper environmental conditions. This batteryless architecture is intrinsic to RI-TRP-RR2B-30's design and eliminates replacement cycles and disposal concerns.
What is the maximum read range of the RI-TRP-RR2B-30?
The typical maximum read range of the RI-TRP-RR2B-30 is ≤100 cm under standard test conditions using a compliant reader antenna and optimal orientation. Actual range depends on reader power output, antenna size, environmental materials, and tag placement-but RI-TRP-RR2B-30 consistently achieves this performance due to its factory-tuned resonance and high-Q glass-encapsulated coil.
Can the RI-TRP-RR2B-30 be embedded in metal or conductive environments?
No-like all LF RFID transponders, RI-TRP-RR2B-30 cannot operate when directly attached to or enclosed by ferrous or conductive metals, as they detune the resonant circuit. However, RI-TRP-RR2B-30 can be reliably read through nonmetallic barriers (plastic, wood, concrete, soil) and may be mounted near metal using standoff spacers or dielectric isolation layers per TI's application guidelines.
