ChampionChip

ChampionChip: The world's leading timing technology for active sports events using superior transponder timing.

In many sports events people compete, with one another, with themselves and with time. For active sports events the ChampionChip company has revolutionized timing. In 1994 the company introduced an automatic timing system, which can not only time the finish but also split and start times. This made net times for every individual athlete possible.

The ChampionChip System is simple, accurate and professional. There is no similar system in the world:

High-tech and easy to use chip timing system
Fast and accurate results for small up to very large events
Multipurpose utility: the system can be used in many different active sports events
High level service by providing net times and splits for every individual competitor
Regional, national and worldwide network of professional timing companies
TimePoint, ChampionChip TimePoints provide runners with their own timingfacilities in their own areas.

What is a ChampionChip?

ChampionChip is a miniature transponder in a specially designed plastic housing. This device contains a chip in combination with an energizing coil. These elements are encased in a waterproof glass capsule, meaning the ChampionChip can be used under all conditions (wet, dry, cold and hot).

The ChampionChip can be worn in different ways. For running races, the ChampionChip is attached to the runner’s shoelace. In triathlons it is attached to an ankle bracelet.

There are no batteries in the ChampionChip. The transponder is passive until moved into a magnetic field, generated by a send antenna. Here the energizing coil produces an electric current to power the chip. The transponder then transmits its unique identification number to a receive antenna. The whole procedure takes approximately 60 milliseconds and is repeated continuously.
