Abstract
The present invention is a method for producing ready to use RFID devices in a convenient and economical manner. The method in one embodiment includes a substrate having a first a second face and applying a pattern of adhesive to the first face of the substrate. A conductive foil is then laminated to the pattern of adhesive, and the conductive foil is cut to form a plurality of antenna patterns. A chip is applied to each of the antenna patterns. Printing is applied on the second face of the substrate to create distinct printed areas. Each of the printed areas is then read and the information is matched with each of the distinct printed areas to information encoded in each of the chips. Finally, each distinct printed area is separated from the substrate.
