A transponder receives its operating energy from an external source such as a radio signal or a battery. Such transponders are used for example in a vehicle or in a remote sensor. The response range of the transponder is increased by converting the received energy into an operating voltage which in turn is used to generate a function voltage required for performing a current function sequence. The generated function voltage is checked to determine at least one characteristic of the generated function voltage. The determined function voltage characteristic, for example a voltage value directly representing the function voltage, is then used to acknowledge or reject a result of performing the function sequence. Thus, the time duration for performing any current function sequence is flexibly adapted to the current requirements of that function sequence, whereby the power consumption of the transponder is optimally reduced and the response range respectively increased.
