Passive tag

An RFID tag without its own power source and transmitter. When radio waves from the reader reach the chip¡¯s antenna, the energy is converted by the antenna into electricity that can power up the microchip in the tag. The tag is able to send back information stored on the chip. Today, simple passive tags cost from U.S. 20 cents to several dollars, depending on the amount of memory on the tag, packaging and other features.
