What are the memory types Balluff uses for its data carriers?

Memory types used in data carriers

The memory types used by Balluff are:

1. Read only tags:

ROM - Read Only Memory

  • Coded with the 2xx in the case of the inductive coupling units, particularly only for the BIS L family (e.g., BIS L-200-03 / L).
  • This data carrier has a longer reading range since there is no write operation that requires more energy.

2. Read/write tags:

EEPROM - Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory

  • These tags contain no battery and data retention time is 10 years.
  • There is a limited number of write to the tag:
  • From 1,000,000 writes for a BIS C tag to 100,000 writes for a BIS L; BIS M or BIS U tags.

EPROM - Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory
  • These tags contain no battery and data retention time is 10 years.
  • These tags have virtually no limitation on writes.
