PCT100/PCT200 Sensor Tag
Powercast
®
High-Function RFID Sensor Tags
DESCRIPTION
The Powercast PCT100 and PCT200 Sensor Tags
enable RFID based monitoring of environmental
conditions including temperature, humidity, and light
level. Depending
on the configuration desired, one,
two or all three sensors can be supported on a single
tag.
The PCT100 Sensor Tag is a high-function RFID tag
capable of measuring temperature, humidity, and
light level with high accuracy.
The tag harnesses the
capability of the Powercast Powerharvester® Chipset
to enable long range, high-function RFID all without
the need for an on-board battery. The tags are
designed to maximize the RF to DC conversion
efficiency of the energy provided by an RFID reader.
Using this energy, sensor measurements can be taken
and then read back out of the tag’s memory using any
standard UHF RFID reader. Powercast’s technology
enables a completely maintenance-free and battery-
free sensing and tracking solution for UHF RFID
applications.
•
“Find Tag” feature – enables locating one specific
tag by illuminating an on-board LED

PCT100 SPECIFIC FEATURES
The PCT200 family adds a rechargeable battery to
enable long lasting data logging capabilities while
outside of the RFID reader’s field. The tag has
customizable data reading capabilities that can be
easily set through a user friendly interface.
The tag
uses the RFID Reader’s field to recharge the on-board
battery while the data is being downloaded.
This
allows the tag to be reusable without the need to
plug-in or change batteries.
