Identiv expands ID-Tiny HF tag portfolio for compact RFID applications

Identiv has expanded its ID-Tiny portfolio of ultra-miniaturized HF/NFC inlays and tags, enabling secure digital identification and connectivity for products where conventional RFID solutions are too large.

The expanded product family includes eight HF tag and inlay designs engineered for compact applications such as pharmaceutical vials, surgical instruments, jewelry, eyewear, wireless earbuds, cosmetics packaging, and other space-constrained products. Supporting ISO 15693 and compatible with IC technologies including NXP ICODE 3 and STMicroelectronics ST25TV, the tags deliver smartphone-readable authentication and digital connectivity in form factors smaller than a pencil eraser.

According to Identiv, the portfolio supports a range of applications, including product authentication, Digital Product Passports (DPP), anti-counterfeiting, warranty registration, asset tracking, medical device identification, and consumer engagement. The company also provides encoding, personalization, application testing, rapid prototyping, and manufacturing services to help customers integrate the technology into commercial products.

“ID-Tiny is about making digital identity possible in places where it simply wasn’t practical before,” says Manfred Mueller, chief strategy officer at Identiv. “By making it practical to add that identity to smaller and often more challenging form factors, ID-Tiny expands what organizations and end users can connect, track, authenticate, and engage with across the physical world.”
