The ID-1540EC is a 15×40mm UHF RFID sticker built on the Alien Higgs EC (Enhanced Capacity) chip — the same chip specified by library systems requiring 1,024 bits of user memory for comprehensive item data storage. The 15×40mm size balances adequate antenna area with a form factor that fits on book spines wider than 15mm, bottle side-labels, and compact product packaging. With 1,024 bits of user memory, the EC chip stores far more data than standard RFID labels — eliminating the need for a database lookup at every scan point in offline or low-connectivity environments.

Applications
The 1,024-bit user memory of the Higgs EC makes the ID-1540EC the preferred choice when a single RFID tag must carry the item's full descriptive data — not just a serial number.
- Library books with wider spines — textbooks and reference volumes where the slim 9503 format is too small; encode title, ISBN, subject class, and loan status
- Premium wine and spirits authentication — encode vintage, vineyard, production lot, and chain-of-custody events
- CD, DVD, and media libraries — catalogue number, genre, and loan data stored in tag memory
- Archival document management — government archives, legal firms; document title, date, classification, and retention period in tag
- Pharmaceutical sample tracking — clinical trial sample ID, patient code, and study reference without database dependency
The 15mm width accommodates a 1D barcode with 10-digit alphanumeric content alongside the RFID chip for dual identification. Custom user memory encoding is available; provide your data schema and we encode at the factory.

Frequently asked questions
How much user memory does the RFID 1540EC sticker have?
The RFID 1540EC sticker carries 1,024 bits of user memory plus a 128-bit EPC on the Alien Higgs EC chip, far more than a standard UHF label. Item data can therefore be stored on the tag itself, so scanning still works in offline or low connectivity locations.
What is the read range of the 15 x 40 mm RFID 1540EC sticker?
The RFID 1540EC sticker reads up to 5 metres, depending on the reader and antenna used. It runs at 865-868 MHz, covering the 865-867 MHz UHF band notified by WPC for India, and follows the EPC Gen 2 and ISO 18000-6C protocols used by standard readers.
Can the RFID 1540EC sticker be used on books and bottles?
Yes. At 15 x 40 mm, the RFID 1540EC sticker fits book spines wider than 15 mm, bottle side labels and compact product packaging, and its PET face with permanent acrylic adhesive holds on smooth surfaces. As with all standard UHF labels, performance is best on non-metal surfaces.
Is the RFID 1540EC sticker available in bulk in India?
Yes. India RFID Store supplies the RFID 1540EC library and retail sticker in bulk with custom printing and pre-encoding on request, plus samples for testing. Identium is a BIS and WPC certified Indian manufacturer offering OEM quantities and pan-India shipping.
