Part Number: TRPGP40ATGC

Hello team,

Please see below customer question:

The spec sheet for the this transponder says it is “not programmed,” what does that mean?

Do it mean that the transponder is writable, and if so can it be written to more than once?

Hello Randhir,

The TRPGP40ATGC has a 80 bit one time programmable memory, so they can write to it, but only one time. That's why it comes not programmed. The customer can program it once, and that is it.
