hi,

EPC - Electronic Product code, is a unique code given to each and every type of product , so that from the EPC code we can conclude on the product.

The below is the EPC standard coding formate.

ex- 01.0203D2A.916E8B.0719BAE03C

Header: 8 bits = 256

ePC Mgr: 28 bits = 268, 435,456

Object Class: 24 bits = 16,777,216

Serial Number: 36 bits = 687,194,767,361

roughly calculating we can have

268 million companies --16 million products -- over 687 billion individual items !!

regards,

arul sekar
