How Tageos is pioneering the next generation of highly sustainable and ultra-thin NFC inlays
With the EOS-932 PR1301 inlay prototype, Tageos is showing the way NFC connectivity can be brought to broader markets and more applications in a highly sustainable and cost-effective manner.
Key benefits and features:
- Very low carbon footprint – combining a paper-based, precision laser-cut antenna with breakthrough FlexIC technology
- Ultra-thin - imperceptible to touch within labels or packaging
- Cost-efficient - ideal for integration into mass-market items
The EOS-932 PR1301 prototype inlay from Tageos opens a new world of possibilities in NFC tagging. It combines a uniquely designed 31 x 14 mm precision laser-cut aluminum antenna on paper substrate with a 37 µm thin and flexible printed PR1301 IC from PragmatIC Semiconductor, meaning it can go places traditional NFC inlays can’t.
The PR-1301 IC from PragmatIC Semiconductor is powered by Pragmatic’s unique FlexIC technology to deliver industry-standard NFC endpoint capability in an ultra-thin, flexible form factor with a uniquely low carbon footprint.
The EOS-932 PR1301 is designed to deliver new applications in consumer engagement, authentication, and traceability via NFC connectivity to new market segments that include fast-moving consumer goods such as food and beverages, fashion, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, where a cost-efficient and flexible form factor is key to deploying item-level intelligence at scale. Potential future applications could include wearable health and wellness monitors, toys and games, and food freshness detection.
