I·Code1
The first long range 13.56MHz RFID IC that Philips released was the I·Code1 (SL1). Still in high volume
production, I·Code1 (SL1) is still widely used in applications globally and has an existing installed base of
millions of tags. The I·Code1 (SL1) uses a protocol and air interface that is proprietary to Philips.
By contrast, the I·Code SLI (SL2), released by Philips in 2002, is fully compatible with ISO/IEC 15693
parts -2 and -3. The host application developer should be explicitly aware of the distinction between the
I·Code1 (SL1) and the I·Code SLI (SL2).
