However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and in other embodiments, the flexible wireless communication chip 10 may be electrically connected to the antenna 30 by other methods. For example, in one embodiment, the antenna 30 may be formed on the flexible wireless communication chip 10 in a printing direction to be electrically connected to the wireless communication circuit C of the flexible wireless communication chip 10.
In summary, the flexible wireless communication chip/wireless communication tag according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a flexible substrate and a wireless communication circuit disposed on the flexible substrate, wherein the wireless communication circuit includes a plurality of thin film transistors, each of the thin film transistors has a first end, a second end and a control end, and the first end and the second end are arranged in a first direction of a plurality of vertical projections on the flexible substrate.
In particular, a plurality of first directions of a plurality of thin film transistors of the wireless communication circuit are substantially parallel. Therefore, in the manufacturing process of the flexible wireless communication chip, the laser beam can scan a plurality of semiconductor materials in the same direction/angle, so that a plurality of semiconductor patterns of a plurality of thin film transistors of the wireless communication circuit have the same or similar physical characteristics, and the electrical property of the flexible wireless communication chip/the wireless communication label is further improved.
Although the present invention has been described with reference to the above embodiments, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and details may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
