In this paper, we present a new digital baseband processor for UHF tags. It is a low-power and low-voltage digital circuit and adopts the Chinese military standard protocol GJB7377.1. The processor receives data or commands from the RF front-end and carries out various functions, such as receiving and writing data to memory, reading and sending memory data to the RF front-end and killing tags. The processor consists of thirteen main sub-modules: TPP decoding, clock management, random number generator, power management, memory controller, cyclic redundancy check, FM0 encoding, input data processing, output data processing, command detection module, initialization module, state machine module and controller. We use ModelSim for the TPP decoding simulation and communication simulation between tag and reader, and the simulation results meet the design requirements. The processor can be applied to UHF tags and has been taped out using a TSMC 0.18 um CMOS process.
