GLOSSARY

 

 

 

Bytes

A collection of 8 bits used in the binary system.

 

As it relates to RFID, the number of bits or bytes that can be programmed into a tag. This may

Capacity

represent the bits accessible to the user or the total number - including those reserved to the

 

manufacturer (e.g., parity or control bits).

Capture Window/Field

Region of the scanner field in which an RFID tag will operate.

Cavity

A recessed area in something. In the case of a die set, the core is one of two part with the core

being its mating half.

 

Chamfer

To slice off the corners of an angle to create a beveled edge.

Character

Any single numeral, letter, or symbol.

Chassis Assembly

A group of components or sub-assemblies that comprise the base of an assembly.

Circumference

The periphery of a circle or other rounded object - also the measurement of this distance.

Circuit

A network of wires, resistors, and other electronic devices over which electrical impulses

travel.

 

Clockwise

To rotate from left to right.

Closed Systems

As it relates to RFID, a system in which relevant data regarding the attributes of the object is

stored in a common database accessible via data link by referencing the individual ID code.

 

Collar

A sleeve applied to a rod, shaft, or pipe to prevent sideward motion.

Component

A single part that may applied to others to form an assembly.

Composite

An object that is comprised of, or layered with, two or more materials to achieve a desired

outcome.

 

Concave

A curved recess or hollow - the opposite of convex.

Concentric

Multiple items that share a common center - example: a circle centered within a circle.

Configuration

The arrangement of parts or components to operate in unison for a specific activity.

 

To program software to enable, disable, or specify how various features will function.

 

Connector

Devices for joining electrical and electronic circuits through coupling. Typically, one mating half

is a plug (male) and the other is a socket (female).

 

Convex

A spherical shaped surface - one that is curved outward.

Core

The protruding portion of a die set. The core is one of two parts and the cavity being its mating

half. The core is convexed and the cavity is concaved.

 

 

(Central Processing Unit) A programmable device that performs all the instruction, logic, and

CPU

mathematical processing in a computer - is the brains of the computer. The CPU is a microchip

that is installed on a motherboard (primary board) that coordinates hardware components.

 

 

Also referred to as “processor”.

Counter-Clockwise

To rotate from right to left.

Couple

Two mating halves that are connected - example: a plug or receptacle.

Cubic

The X, Y, and Z axis all being equal in size - a three-dimensional object that is equally

proportioned.

 

Current

The flow or rate of flow of electric force.

Cycle

A single revolution of a potentially reoccurring activity - in the case of printer, one label being

printed.

 

DC

(Direct Current) Electrical current flowing in a single direction.

Density

The quantity within a given or specific area or unit.

Deviation

A change in course or the measurement of that change.

Diameter

A straight line from the outer edge of a circle, through the center, and onward to the opposite

edge. Also the measurement of that distance (dimension).

 

Dimension

Any measurable distance.
