App Notes (Sensor Tags)
Sensor Tag Basics
While initially targeted for those using passive sensors, this is a great introduction to the do's and don'ts of RAIN RFID. Great tool with practical tips for those new RFID or Passive Sensors.
Water Leak Detection Using RFID
This application note focuses upon the detection of leaks and moisture using UHF RFID (also known as RAIN RFID) equipment tailored to interrogate or read passive sensors utilizing specialty RFID die. This document introduces how these RFID based sensors operate and how to make leak and moisture detection work from a practical standpoint. There are many lessons we have learned about how to operate these sensors successfully, many do's and don'ts and we don't want customers making the mistakes we first made. This makes this document an invaluable tool!
