About This Tool
What is Data Matrix?
Data Matrix is a 2D matrix barcode that stores a lot of data in a very small square, with strong error correction (ECC 200). It stays readable even when printed tiny or partially damaged, which is why it marks small electronics and medical items.
- Type: 2D matrix
- Error correction: ECC 200
- Best for: Tiny items, direct part marking
Data Matrix Size Calculator
This calculator works out the correct Data Matrix check digit (and how many numbers you need) instantly, so your barcodes scan first time.
Where Data Matrix is used
- Electronics and components
- Pharmaceuticals and medical devices
- Aerospace part marking
When to use Data Matrix
Use Data Matrix when you need a rugged 2D code on a very small surface, such as a circuit board or a vial.
