A Swiss postal barcode encoding "RI 476 394 652 CH" in Code 128 (B & C) Code 128 is a high-density linear barcode symbology defined in ISO/IEC 15417:2007. [1] It is used for alphanumeric or numeric-only barcodes. It can encode all 128 characters of ASCII and, by use of an extension symbol (FNC4), the Latin-1 characters defined in ISO/IEC 8859-1 ...
389. Montenegro. 390. Republic of Kosovo (EAN-imposed, no GS1 Member Organisation) [2] 400–440. Germany (440 code inherited from former East Germany upon reunification in 1990) 450–459. Japan (new Japanese Article Number range) 460–469.
The Code 16K (1988) is a multi-row bar code developed by Ted Williams at Laserlight Systems (USA) in 1992. In the US and France, the code is used in the electronics industry to identify chips and printed circuit boards. Medical applications in the USA are well known. Williams also developed Code 128, and the structure of 16K is based on Code 128.
There are in fact several types of linear bar codes, including Code 128, a bar code standard widely used in coding standards such as GS1 and ISBT 128. Higher capacity delivery systems are available using 2-dimensional or reduced space symbology bar codes. These codes can carry much more information in each symbol.
PDF417 is a stacked linear barcode format used in a variety of applications such as transport, identification cards, and inventory management. "PDF" stands for Portable Data File. The "417" signifies that each pattern in the code consists of 4 bars and spaces in a pattern that is 17 units (modules) long.
The Serial Shipping Container Code (SSCC) is an 18-digit number used to identify logistics units. In order to automate the reading process, the SSCC is often encoded in a barcode, generally GS1-128, and can also be encoded in an RFID tag. It is used in electronic commerce transactions. The SSCC comprises an extension digit, a GS1 company prefix ...
Codablock. Codablock is a family of stacked 1D barcodes (Codablock A,. [1] Codablock F, [2] Codablock 256) which was invented in Identcode Systeme GmbH in Germany in 1989 [3] [4] by Heinrich Oehlmann. Codablock barcodes are based on stacked Code 39 and Code 128 symbologies and have some advantages of 2D barcodes.
The EAN-8 code is an eight-digit barcode used usually for very small articles, such as chewing gum, where fitting a larger code onto the item would be difficult. Note: the equivalent UPC small format barcode, UPC-E, encodes a GTIN-12 with a special Company Prefix that allows for "zero suppression" of four zeros in the GTIN-12. The GS1 encoding ...
