This is Avery Dennison’s smallest round form factor HF / NFC inlay, condensed to the max
with an antenna diameter of just 16mm. The CircusTM Mini offers excellent performance in
applications where limited space is available, such as item-level retail, food, gaming, toys, or
indeed any NFC use case.
Smaller than our current round CircusTM inlays with NTAG chips, which are 20mm in
diameter, this new inlay features NXP’s NTAG213 chip. This IC offers 144 bytes of user
memory and comes with unique ID (UID) mirror functionality, which enables the chip serial
number to be mirrored as part of its encoded URL address. This feature allows every tag to
be seen and read as unique from the application perspective, without users needing to
encode inlays with different numbers.
CircusTM Mini is currently available as a wet inlay with the NTAG213 chip.
