RFID TAG R/W 860-960MHZ INLAY 100254

Part Overview

The Avery Dennison RFID part number 100254 is a passive RFID tag inlay designed for read/write applications across the 860MHz to 960MHz frequency band. This component implements the Impinj® Monza® 5 series chipset and complies with EPC and ISO 18000-6 standards, supporting 128-bit EPC memory capacity. The part is currently classified as obsolete, necessitating identification of functionally equivalent alternatives for ongoing procurement and system integration.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution eligibility for RFID tag inlays is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Frequency band operation (860MHz ~ 960MHz)
• Memory architecture (Read/Write capability with 128b EPC capacity)
• Standards compliance (EPC and ISO 18000-6)
• Physical form factor (Inlay style, 1.630" L x 0.630" W dimensions)
• Operating temperature range (-40°C ~ 85°C)
• Technology classification (Passive)

Part number 100307 satisfies all substitution criteria. While it utilizes the NXP UCODE 7 chipset series rather than Impinj® Monza® 5, both chipsets deliver identical functional parameters within the specified electrical and mechanical constraints.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Part number 100307 is the direct functional equivalent for applications currently specified with 100254. The substitute maintains active product status with Avery Dennison RFID, ensuring ongoing availability and supply chain continuity. Both parts carry identical compliance certifications (EPC, ISO 18000-6) and equivalent regulatory classifications (ECCN: EAR99, HTSUS: 8524.62.0010).

The transition from Impinj® Monza® 5 to NXP UCODE 7 chipset architecture does not alter electrical performance or mechanical compatibility within the specified parameter envelope. Part 100307 is supplied in strip packaging format, whereas original documentation indicates 100254 packaging as unspecified; this represents a packaging configuration change rather than a functional limitation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can part 100307 directly replace 100254 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts operate identically across all specified electrical parameters: 860MHz ~ 960MHz frequency band, 128-bit EPC read/write memory, EPC and ISO 18000-6 standards compliance, and -40°C ~ 85°C operating temperature range. Physical dimensions are identical at 1.630" L x 0.630" W.

Q: What is the difference between the Impinj® Monza® 5 and NXP UCODE 7 chipsets?

A: Both chipsets deliver equivalent functional performance within the specified parameter constraints. The chipset difference does not affect frequency response, memory capacity, standards compliance, or operating temperature range.

Q: Does the packaging change from unspecified to strip format affect compatibility?

A: Packaging format affects handling, storage, and assembly processes but does not alter electrical or mechanical compatibility. Strip packaging is a standard format for RFID inlay distribution.

Q: Are there compliance or certification differences between these parts?

A: Both parts carry identical regulatory classifications: ECCN EAR99, HTSUS 8524.62.0010, and Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited). Part 100307 carries RoHS Compliant status, providing additional environmental compliance assurance.

Q: Why is 100254 classified as obsolete?

A: Obsolescence reflects manufacturer discontinuation. Part 100307 remains in active production status, making it the appropriate selection for new procurement and ongoing system support.
