RFID Research and Development
1993-1997: Research to design a cheap resonant antenna suitable for use with a multi-frequency RFID tag. Successful in developing both a design and the means of mass production. Placed in charge of the overall development of the RFID transponder's Application-Specific Integrated Circuit. Chip successfully produced in May 1996. The system was a world first, being a transponder capable of transmitting on 32 different frequencies randomly and utilising a novel type of non-volatile memory based on a perovskite crystalline substance called PZT. The team was the first in the world to develop a monolithic RFID ASIC utilising perovskite crystalline non-volatile memory (trademarked as FRAM).
