ABSTRACT:
A method of making a radio frequency identification (RFID) device includes temporarily adhering an RFID interposer to an antenna, and subsequently ultrasonically welding the interposer leads to the antenna. The temporary adhering may involve use of any of variety of suitable adhering materials, such as an adhesive, wax, or even water. The adhering and the ultrasonic welding may be parts of a process that involves mostly continuous movement of an antenna web that has multiple antennas on it. The adhering material temporarily holds the interposer in place prior to the ultrasonic welding, which is important in a process that involves a moving web. The adhering may be such that there is no material between the conductive material interposer leads, and conductive material of the antenna. This allows the ultrasonic welding to proceed without any need to push intervening material aside.
