METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DEACTIVATION OF COMBINATION EAS/RFID TAGS
摘要
A combination Electronic Article Surveillance/Radio Frequency Identification ("EAS/RFID") tag and method and system for deactivating said combination EAS/RFID tags without the need to physically contact the tag with a deactivation device. The EAS/RFID tag replaces the conventional diode with a non-linear device such as a capacitor with a given breakdown voltage threshold. The introduction of a predetermined voltage across the capacitor results in destruction of the capacitor rendering the EAS/RFID tag undetectable in the interrogation systems.
