1 drives value for Retail Features and benefits of RFID labels based on UCODE 7 for retailers 1. November 2014, Kurt Bischof

2 We have come a long way Today: 40+ retailers are using UCODE 50+ different UCODE antenna designs are available NXP is No 1 in UHF RFID 2.

3 Key Benefits High-performance versatile global labels Highest chip sensitivity and broad band design enables consistent high performance. Smaller tags for existing and new solutions UCODE 7 highest chip sensitivity enables smaller label dimensions without sacrificing performance. Fastest encoding speed Using true parallel encoding and pre-serialized EPC numbers Target Applications Fast and accurate inventory scanning Reduce shrinkage Increase shelf accuracy Enable omni channel retailing Customers find what they look for Sales increases 3.

4 Key Features in UCODE 7 and UCODE 7m Feature UCODE 7 UCODE 7m Read sensitivity -21dBm -21dBm Write sensitivitry -16dBm -16dBm Encoding speed 16 bits/ms 16 bits/ms EPC number size 128 bit, 96 bit 128 bit, 96 bit TID size 96 bit 96 bit User memory size zero 32 bit PWD protected Kill Yes No PWD protected Access Yes Yes 32 bit Block Write Yes Yes NXP Product Status Flag Yes Yes Automatic Self Pre-Serialization Yes Yes NXP write power check Yes Yes NXP parallel encoding, 100 tags in 60 ms Yes Yes 4.

5 Product Status Flag (PSF) The PSF is located in a dedicated part of the UCODE 7 memory It describes the status of a product. Has this jean been sold and paid (Yes/No?). The PSF can be password protected from unauthorized modifications. The PSF may be checked at the exit using overhead antennas as used e.g. in Gerry Weber stores. The advantage of PSF is the possibility to check the status of a product fast and offline - Call for replenishment 5.

6 Automatic self pre-serialization and parallel encoding a) All items in a box belonging to the same Stock Keeping Unit (SKU) get the same SKU number encoded, using one single write command (parallel encoding). b) The required unique serial number is automatically derived from the NXP TID. No programing action is required for serialization. Note: The automatic self pre-serialization can be deactivated, in case the retailer demands to use his proprietary encoding scheme Physical memory content EPC F D1C What the RFID reader see s during inventory SKU Serial No F D1F TID E

7 Advantage through Parallel Encoding UCODE 7 Parallel Encode time Conventional bulk encoding still means to encode, one label after the other 7.

8 Target Use Cases for UCODE 7m Re - encoding of re-usable tags with 32 bit buffer memory. Standardized RFID based Electronic Article Surveilance (EAS) Storing the status of the product (e.g. Jean) in the user memory. Has it been sold and paid for? Product Lifecylce information stored in user memory (e.g. Warranty Date, Service Flags) Production Data stored in memory (set flags for the tests successfully passed) Product Authentication: Checksum generated out of TID stored in user memory.
