Question

_________ RFID tags do not depend on a silicon microchip and use plastic or conductive polymers instead of silicon-based microchips allowing them to be washed or exposed to water without damaging the chip.

Answer 1

Active RFID tags do not depend on a silicon microchip

Step-by-step explanation:

What is Active RFID (radio frequency identification)

These are tags that are continuously operating, battery-powered sensors that gather and transmit data to a reading device.

An active RFID system consists of a reader, tag and antenna. Unlike passive RFID tags that contains merely an antenna and a microchip with no internal power source, an active RFID tag has its own power source, an on-board, long-lasting battery that enables the tag to transmit data continuously, regardless of whether it's in the field range of a reader.
