Specification

Advantages

One of the differences between the DS1973+F5 and typical read/write data carriers is that it is packaged in the F5 MicroCan package, which is durable and tolerant of harsh environments such as moisture and dust. Secondly, the DS1973+F5 is easy to operate with its compact button profile and cup socket that is self-aligning, so it can be easily used by automated devices. Furthermore, the DS1973+F5 is flexible enough to be used for a wide range of applications such as product tracking, access control, and storage of calibration constants.

Manufacturer

Texas Instruments, a Texas-based semiconductor multinational corporation, is a global semiconductor company that designs, manufactures, tests and sells analog and embedded processing chips. Nearly 80,000 products from Texas Instruments help over 100,000 customers efficiently manage power, accurately sense and transmit data and provide the core control or processing in their designs, going into markets such as industrial, automotive, personal electronics, communications equipment and enterprise systems.

DS1973+F5 Equivalent 

The DS1973-F3 and DS1973+F5 are both rugged read/write data carriers designed to identify and store information about the product to which they are connected. Both have a 48-bit serial number, an 8-bit CRC and an 8-bit family code (23H) and 4096bits of EEPROM. The difference is that the DS1973-F3 is in the F3 MicroCan package and the DS1973+F5 is in the F5 MicroCan package.
