9. RFID and Wine Wine 2030 29 th Sept 20089 What is RFID? Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is an automatic identification method, relying on storing and remotely retrieving data using devices called RFID tags or transponders. An RFID tag consists of…… An Antenna, and An Integrated Circuit

10. RFID and Wine Wine 2030 29 th Sept 200810 An RFID Chip (Integrated Circuit)

11. RFID and Wine Wine 2030 29 th Sept 200811 An RFID Tag Antenna Enables the chip to receive and respond to radio- frequency queries from an RFID transceiver.
