of 4

Fujitsu offers HF and UHF RFID products with

embedded FRAM (Ferroelectric Random Access

Memory) based on Fujitsu's cutting-edge

technologies.

Compared to conventional E2PROM/Flash

based RFID chips, the FerVID Family enablesthe same high speed data transfer rate for

both reading and writing over long distances.

The write endurance, specified to 10 billion

cycles, is far higher than that of conventional

RFID tags, thus saving cost and time in

applications. The products are ISO/IEC15693,

ISO/IEC 18000-3 or EPCglobal Class 1

Generation 2 compliant. Fujitsu offers wafers,

sawn wafers or packaged chips. Derivatives

with combined contactless and contact based

SPI interface are available.

ApplicationsFujitsu’s RFID products with 256 Bytes to

4KBytes of FRAM, are ideally suited to many

applications and markets including:I Logistics, supply chain managementI Passenger tickets, subscription cardsI Factory AutomationI Access controlI Medical and Food Industry applicationsI Sensor and Data loggingI Maintenance tracking

What is FRAM?

FRAM (ferroelectric random access memory) isa non-volatile memory that uses ferroelectric

film as a capacitor for storing data. Possessing

characteristics of both ROM and RAM devices,

FRAM features high speed access, high

endurance in write mode, low power

consumption, non-volatility, and excellent

tamper resistance. It is therefore ideal for use

in RFID products, where high security and low

power consumption are important.

What is Ferroelectric material?

PZT (Pb (ZrTi)O3) material which has aperovskite-type structure (ABO3), is commonly

used as a typical ferroelectric material. When

an electric field is applied the Zr/Ti atom shiftsup or down, and this polarisation remains

when the electric field is removed. It is this

property that provides non-volatility and keeps

the power required for data storage

very low.

Fujitsu is a pioneer in this innovative

technology. With more than 10 years of

experience in developing and manufacturing

FRAM products, it has now shipped more than

300 million FRAM devices. The industry is

embracing it as a mature technology.

FRAM and RFID – Key features

RangeLow power consumption can improve the

operating range.

The power delivered to the load must provide

certain threshold voltage and power for the

circuits to function. Because of the low power

consumption nature of FRAM, the operating

range could be improved within given field

strength or power density.

Speed and High Capacity

FRAM memories can be written as fast as theycan be read out. I.e. FRAM write access is

about 25 times faster than E2PROM write

access. Furthermore, the high speed access

and low power consumption allows the design

of high capacity RFID chips.

Almost unlimited read-write times

With read-write endurance of 1E10, FRAM is

more durable and suitable for applications,

which requires frequent write. This is an

important feature for RFID based production

line control, where tags shall be reused many

times.

Gamma Radiation Hardness

Unlike E2PROM, Ferroelectric Memories do not

lose their content due to radiation exposure.Therefore FRAM based RFID tags are ideally

suited for medical applications or applications

in the food industry where sterilization is

performed by irradiation. FRAM data is

protected against up to 50kGy gamma ray

sterilization

Dual Interface

The device MB97R803A is available in two

different types. A conventional contactless

EPCglobal RFID product and a derivative with

an additional contact based SPI interface. Thisdual interface type can be implemented as

part of a Microcontroller based embedded

system. Data, captured by sensors and the

Microcontroller, might be stored in the FRAM

device. Via the contactless UHF interface, the

user has easy and convenient access to this

data. Vice versa, the user can transfer

configuration and control data to the

embedded system via the RF field. Many

applications like logistic tracking systems, data

logging, information displays or vending

machines, can benefit from this feature.
