5. Transponder
It is the actual biochip implant.
Transponder consist of four parts:
1. Computer microchip
2. Antenna coil
3. Tuning capacitor
4. Glass capsule

9. The figure shows the make up of a typical biochip platform.
The actual sensing component (or "chip") is just one piece of a
complete analysis system.
10. Transduction must be done to translate the actual sensing event
(DNA binding, oxidation/reduction, etc.) into a format
understandable by a computer (voltage, light intensity, mass, etc.),
which then enables additional analysis and processing to produce a
final, human-readable output.
