摘要:
A Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) integrated circuit (IC) is at least partially covered by a repassivation layer that is, in turn, at least partially covered by a large, electrically conductive contact pad. The repassivation layer is disposed so as to leave uncovered at least one IC contact. The large contact pad is disposed so as to cover the IC IC contact. The large contact pad forms a first galvanic coupling to the IC contact and a second galvanic coupling to a tag antenna. The surface area of the first galvanic coupling is substantially smaller than the surface area of the second galvanic coupling.

Embodiments are directed to a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) integrated circuit (IC) having a first circuit block electrically coupled to first and second antenna contacts. The first antenna contact is disposed on a first surface of the IC and the second antenna contact is disposed on a second surface of the IC different from the first surface. The first and second antenna contacts are electrically disconnected from each other.

摘要:
Methods of RFID tag assembly include affixing an antenna to an integrated circuit (IC) by forming one or more capacitors coupling the antenna and the IC with the dielectric material of the capacitor(s) including a non-conductive covering layer of the IC, a non-conductive covering layer of the antenna such as an oxide layer, and/or an additionally formed dielectric layer. Top and bottom plates of the capacitor(s) are formed by the antenna traces and one or more patches on a top surface of the IC.

Embodiments are directed to a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) integrated circuit (IC) having a first circuit block electrically coupled to first and second antenna contacts. The first antenna contact is disposed on a first surface of the IC and the second antenna contact is disposed on a second surface of the IC different from the first surface. A substrate of the RFID IC, or a portion of the IC substrate, electrically couples the first circuit block to at least one of the first and second antenna contacts. The IC includes one or more interfaces or barrier regions that at least partially electrically isolate the first circuit block from the rest of the IC substrate.
摘要:
A Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) IC may have raised contact islands that include conductive contact pads covering a repassivation layer. The raised contact islands are formed by removing part or all of the repassivation material surrounding the raised contact islands. The repassivation material that is not covered and protected by the contact pads may be removed by a strip process that also removes a masking layer used for IC etching. Singulated RFID ICs may be assembled into an RFID tag using a B-stage adhesive that is applied to the ICs and then partially cured. The ICs are deposited onto preheated inlays. The preheated inlays cause the B-stage adhesive on the ICs to bind to the inlays.
