Low-Power Counter-Less Shift Register Component Module Design

Description

Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) such as those in Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tags can be powered over the air with RF energy, but they lack the programming flexibility of a user or product OEM compared to microprocessor. This new technology is a change in the computer paradigm where the flexibility of a programmable microprocessor is provided within a chip while powered over the air by RF energy.
