em I echo-lock- NFC & High Frequency ICs, EPC and UHF ICs

Secure Dual-Frequency Tag for Critical Applications

Expanding the em|echo product family, em|echo-lock combines Gen2v3 RAIN RFID and NFC in a single chip with enhanced security features, making it ideal for high-value and regulated applications.
Designed for sectors where trust, traceability, and memory capacity are critical, em|echo-lock brings advanced authentication and encryption to industrial-grade tagging.

Key features include

  • HF and UHF cryptographic support for enhanced data security
  • High memory capacity to store critical product or compliance data
  • Full Gen2v3 compliance, including advanced memory access commands
  • Shared memory architecture for seamless dual-interface access and a unified identifier
  • Compatible antenna impedance with em|echo-V for easy integration across platforms
  • Manufacturing efficiency with single-step assembly and encoding from either interface

em|echo-lock is built for tolling, aviation equipment tagging, secure goods tracking, and other high-integrity use cases requiring secure access across NFC and RAIN RFID infrastructures.
