Abstract
An RFID tag includes a circuit board and a plurality of functional modules. The circuit board has an antenna conductor and a ground plane. On the circuit board, a control circuit and an RFID IC are mounted. The functional modules are connected to the circuit board. The circuit board includes a main part and an extended part. The main part includes a mounting plane for the control circuit and the ground plane. The extended part includes the antenna conductor and is integrated with the main part. The extended part and the antenna conductor are longer than one edge of the main part and disposed along the one edge.

An RFID tag comprising:
- a circuit board that has an antenna conductor and a ground plane and where a control circuit and an RFID IC are mounted;
- and
- a plurality of functional modules connected to the circuit board,
- wherein the circuit board includes:
- a main part including:
- a mounting plane for the control circuit;
- and the ground plane;
- and
- an extended part including the antenna conductor and integrated with the main part, and
- wherein the extended part and the antenna conductor are longer than one edge of the main part and disposed along the one edge.
An RFID tag comprising:
- a circuit board that has an antenna conductor and a ground plane and where a control circuit and an RFID IC are mounted;
- and
- a first functional module, a second functional module and a third functional module connected to the circuit board,
- wherein the circuit board includes:
- a main part including:
- a mounting plane for the control circuit;
- and the ground plane;
- and
- an extended part including the antenna conductor and integrated with the main part,
- wherein the first functional module overlaps the main part in a direction perpendicular to a board surface and does not overlap the extended part in the perpendicular direction,
- wherein the second functional module and the third functional module are disposed on respective sides of the first functional module, and
- wherein as viewed in the perpendicular direction, the extended part and the antenna conductor extend (i) along one edge of the main part, (ii) between the first functional module and the second functional module, and (iii) between the first functional module and the third functional module.
