Claim 0:
1. A method for producing a radio frequency identification (RFID) tag, comprising:
altering a conductive trace by removing a portion of conductive material of the conductive trace using a laser to have a characteristic to define an antenna for the RFID tag; and
attaching a communications enabled device so as to form an electrical connection between the communications enabled device and the antenna to form the RFID tag;
wherein the removing the portion of the conductive material in an area of the conductive trace using the laser includes at least one of decreasing a thickness of the conductive trace, decreasing a width of the conductive trace, or decreasing a height of the conductive trace while leaving a remaining portion in the area of the conductive material.
