A circuit capable of automatically calibrating a resonant frequency of an antenna includes the antenna, a switch, a conversion unit, a count comparator, and a capacitor array. The switch is coupled to the antenna for being turned on and turned off according to a pulse. The antenna is used for generating the resonant frequency according to on and off of the switch. The conversion unit is coupled to the antenna for generating a clock according to a signal with the resonant frequency. The count comparator is coupled to the conversion unit for counting a number generated by a reference clock during a period of the clock, and comparing the pulse number with a predetermined value to generate an adjustment signal. The capacitor array is used for adjusting capacitance of the capacitor array according to the adjustment signal.

A circuit for generating a direct current voltage includes a three-axis antenna set, a first capacitor, a limiting direct current voltage generator, a second capacitor, and a low dropout regulator. The three-axis antenna set receives a signal transmitted by a reader. The first capacitor generates a first direct current voltage according to an X-axis component, a Y-axis component, and a Z-axis component of the signal. The limiting direct current voltage generator limits and converts the X-axis component, the Y-axis component, and the Z-axis component to generate an X-axis direct current voltage, a Y-axis direct current voltage, and a Z-axis direct current voltage. The second capacitor generates a second direct current voltage according to the X-axis direct current voltage, the Y-axis direct current voltage, and the Z-axis direct current voltage. The low dropout regulator generates a direct current output voltage according to the second direct current voltage.

An antenna comprises a ground plate, a first plate, a connector, and a signal feeder having two terminals respectively electrically connected to the ground plate and the first plate. The first plate is set above the ground plate and comprises first, second, and third resonance regions with respective dimensions corresponding to wavelengths of first, second, and third frequencies at which the antenna operates. A connection region is connected to the first, second, and third resonance regions. The connector has two opposite ends respectively connected to the ground plate and the connection region. The first, second, and third frequencies respectively correspond to first, second, and third frequency bands of the antenna. The second frequency is close to the third frequency such that the second frequency band and the third frequency band are partially overlapped to cause the second frequency band and the third frequency band to merge.
