Sirit's Reader Interoperable with NXP's Chips

Wednesday, December 19, 2007

RFID provider Sirit and RFID chip supplier NXP Semiconductors (a independent semiconductor company founded by Philips) today announced interoperability support for all of the custom commands in NXP’s newest UCODE G2X chips. The latest firmware version of Sirit’s best-in-class INfinity 510 reader (“IN510”) will take advantage of the extended functionality built into NXP’s UCODE G2XM and G2XL chips.

These functions have been implemented in NXP’s silicon and Sirit’s IN510 to support the demands of “sophisticated customers who are implementing RFID solutions that go far beyond simple compliance tagging,” according to a news release. [end]
