Libramation, a Canadian provider of library automation technology, has announced its adoption of the latest development in RFID technology for libraries, following the launch of the new ICODE SLI-SY microchip from NXP.
The ICODE SLI-SY is an RFID chip from NXP that offers privacy protection and guarantees 40 years of data retention.
Longer data retention
Following the performance and functionality that some libraries have already experienced with the previous generation of RFID SLI chips, the new chip provides identification that lasts for several decades.
Libramation says it will use the new NXP chip exclusively for all of its RFID projects and, in combination with Libramation's Lib-Chip software, the chip meets the needs of Special and Academic Libraries by providing a higher level of security and longer lasting performance.
Library requirements
According to Frank Mussche, president for Libramation, "Longevity, security and privacy are more and more becoming a focus for these special libraries as they look at implementing RFID technology. The new ICODE SLI-SY chip offers a solution that prevents unauthorised access to sections of the on-chip memory and can allow read-only access while providing password access to modify data stored on the chip."
The chip is ISO15693/ISO18000-3 compliant, and can be easily integrated into existing projects. It is also supported by several existing hardware partners.
