UHF How ordering works
- 01
Specify
Share surface, read distance, chip preference and volume. We shortlist tags that fit.
- 02
Sample
Receive sample tags of the shortlisted designs to try in your own setup.
- 03
Validate
Test on your items, readers and printers. We adjust chip, size or format if needed.
- 04
Produce & ship
Volume production with 100% inline electrical test, then export shipping.
Frequently asked questions
How do I choose a tag with Alien Higgs-9?
Match the reader protocol and required memory first, then compare antenna size and mounting material. Test the finished tag on the intended object before a volume order.
Can the datasheet tell me how far the label reads?
Chip specifications describe the integrated circuit. Finished-tag read range depends on the antenna, reader, power and tagged material; use measured sample results for qualification.
Can I request another format or chip option?
Share the desired footprint, format and encoding requirements. We will confirm a suitable chip and antenna combination and arrange the sample configuration before quoting bulk.
