High temperature tag having enclosed transceiver
First Claim
1. A process for forming a high temperature tag having at least one electronic component, comprising the steps of:
- providing a heat resistant base material having an upper limit temperature so as to maintain form and integrity to a temperature in the range from about 300°
F. to 700°
F.;
cutting a window in said base material;
securing a heat resistant layer to a first surface of said base material so that said layer overlies at least a portion of said window, said heat resistant layer having an upper limit temperature so as to maintain form and integrity to a temperature in the range from about 300°
F. to 700°
F.;
disposing an adhesive material on at least a portion of said layer exposed in said window of said base material; and
applying said electronic component to an open end of said window so that said electronic device is adhered by said adhesive in said window.

Abstract
A high temperature RFID tag is provided that is adapted to receive thermal transfer print to provide indicia on an outer surface thereof and adapted to be disposed on a part that is subject to high temperature exposure. The RFID tag is formed as a lamination of a high temperature material such as high temperature polyester and including a window for an RFID generator component, a layer of high temperature resistant material that overlies the opening, and an adhesive material disposed in the window to secure the RFID generator component therein. The layer of high temperature resistant material is preferably transparent so that the indicia can be seen therethrough.
