Product details
Overview
RI-TRP-W9UR-30 from Texas Instruments is an ISO 11784/11785-compliant, batteryless 134.2 kHz HDX RFID transponder disk with 80-bit read/write memory, IP53-rated ASA housing, and ≤150 cm typical read range. It operates from –25°C to +70°C and is used in vehicle identification, container tracking, and asset management systems requiring robust non-metallic material penetration.
For engineers reviewing the RI-TRP-W9UR-30 datasheet, RI-TRP-W9UR-30 pinout, RI-TRP-W9UR-30 application, or RI-TRP-W9UR-30 equivalent, key selection criteria include HDX half-duplex modulation, FSK carrier shift (134.2/123.2 kHz), 309 ms programming time, 100,000 write cycles, and compatibility with TI-RFid™ LF readers using CCITT CRC-16 checksum formatting.
Technical Context
This transponder implements Half-Duplex (HDX) communication with Frequency Shift Keying (FSK) at 134.2 kHz (carrier) and 123.2 kHz (subcarrier), enabling simultaneous power harvesting and bidirectional data exchange without an internal battery. Its patented tuning process ensures stable resonance and consistent coupling across varying reader antenna configurations and environmental conditions.
The device uses a single 80-bit memory page structured as 64 user-programmable bits plus a 16-bit CCITT CRC block check character-mandatory for reliable operation with TI-RFid™ LF readers. Mechanical robustness is validated per IEC 68-2-27 (15 g shock) and IEC 68-2-6 (10 g vibration), supporting deployment in industrial logistics and outdoor waste management infrastructure.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar passive LF RFID transponder applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| RI-TRP-R9UR | 64-bit read-only memory; no write capability; wider operating temperature (–25°C to +85°C) | Suitable for permanent ID-only use cases (e.g., livestock ear tags), not for dynamic data logging | Select RI-TRP-R9UR when write endurance and field-updatable data are unnecessary and extended temperature range is required. |
| EM4102 (from EM Microelectronic) | 64-bit read-only; 125 kHz; Manchester-encoded; no HDX or FSK modulation | Limited to legacy 125 kHz readers; lacks ISO 11784/11785 compliance and HDX range/robustness | Choose EM4102 only for cost-sensitive, low-performance access control where ISO compliance and long-range reading are not required. |
Compared with RI-TRP-R9UR and EM4102, RI-TRP-W9UR-30 uniquely delivers 80-bit read/write capability with HDX FSK modulation at 134.2 kHz, enabling secure, standards-compliant, and field-upgradable identification in demanding industrial and outdoor environments.

FAQ
What is the memory structure of the RI-TRP-W9UR-30?
The RI-TRP-W9UR-30 contains a single 80-bit memory page, configured as 64 user-programmable bits and a mandatory 16-bit CCITT CRC block check character. This layout ensures data integrity during programming and is required for full compatibility with TI-RFid™ LF readers. The CRC must be calculated and written alongside user data-no built-in CRC generation is performed by the RI-TRP-W9UR-30 itself.
Does the RI-TRP-W9UR-30 require a battery or external power source?
No, the RI-TRP-W9UR-30 is a fully passive transponder powered solely by the electromagnetic field generated by a compatible 134.2 kHz LF reader. It contains no battery or energy storage component. Power harvesting and data transmission occur simultaneously via HDX modulation, making RI-TRP-W9UR-30 ideal for maintenance-free, multi-decade deployments in inaccessible locations.
What is the maximum programming distance for the RI-TRP-W9UR-30?
The typical programming distance for the RI-TRP-W9UR-30 is 30% of its specified reading range, i.e., approximately 45 cm under optimal conditions. Actual distance depends on reader antenna design, regulatory limits, and local EMI. Programming requires stronger field coupling than reading, so RI-TRP-W9UR-30 must be positioned closer to the reader antenna during write operations compared to read-only interrogation.
Is the RI-TRP-W9UR-30 compliant with international RFID standards?
Yes, the RI-TRP-W9UR-30 is fully compliant with ISO/IEC 11784 and ISO/IEC 11785 standards for low-frequency RFID systems. This compliance guarantees interoperability with certified readers and infrastructure used in animal identification, vehicle access, and global logistics-ensuring that RI-TRP-W9UR-30 meets regulatory and industry requirements for open-standard deployments.
What mechanical and environmental tests has the RI-TRP-W9UR-30 undergone?
The RI-TRP-W9UR-30 is qualified to IEC 68-2-27 (15 g shock, half-sine, 2 axes) and IEC 68-2-6 (10 g vibration, 20–500 Hz, 2 axes). It carries an IP53 ingress protection rating and operates reliably from –25°C to +70°C. These validations confirm RI-TRP-W9UR-30's suitability for rugged applications such as container handling, municipal waste collection, and outdoor vehicle identification.
