Use this checklist to agree the product configuration, artwork, encoded data, acceptance tests and documents before a production order.
Two products with the same chip can behave differently because of the antenna, enclosure, personalization or application. Record the required transaction and operating conditions alongside the physical specification. The agreed product specification and quotation establish the scope of each order.
| Approval stage | Decisions to record | Evidence to agree |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Confirm the configuration | Model, dimensions, materials, exact IC and antenna requirements. | Approved specification or drawing, with a revision reference. |
| 2. Approve artwork | Print areas, colors, serial numbering and any barcode or QR content. | Artwork proof showing position, content and numbering convention. |
| 3. Validate encoded samples | Application data, identifier mapping, authentication and locking where required. | Sample readback and application acceptance criteria using the intended reader. |
| 4. Agree production acceptance | Quantity checks, physical inspection, data verification and handling of rejects. | The agreed inspection or test scope and any required reporting. |
| 5. Confirm packaging and delivery | Unit grouping, label roll requirements, carton information and destination. | Packaging instructions, commercial terms and shipping documents for the order. |
| 6. Control repeat orders | Approved configuration, artwork revision, serialization range and changes. | Reference to the approved specification and confirmation of any substituted part or process. |
List required material declarations, compliance documents, inspection results or traceability records in your initial enquiry. Identify the exact model, materials and destination requirements. Availability and scope must be confirmed for the selected construction.
A semiconductor datasheet describes the IC. It does not certify the finished card, label, band or disc, or establish a guaranteed read distance. Where a project requires a particular rating or test, agree the method, conditions and acceptance criteria for the finished product.
Record the product model, IC order code, artwork revision and sample data format together. Identify who approves changes and how replacement serial numbers are handled. This gives procurement, production and the system integrator the same reference for future orders.
Yes. Treat artwork and electronic personalization as separate approval items. A correct printed proof does not verify chip data, and a successful chip read does not verify the printed artwork.
Name the required document or test, the finished product configuration and the intended market in your enquiry. Ask Roxtron to confirm the available evidence and any additional work before the order is agreed.
No. They depend on the product, IC, customization, quantity and delivery requirements. Request a quotation for the complete configuration, including sample availability, cost and shipping.
