What is CODE128 Barcode?

Code 128 is a popular linear barcode symbology that is widely used in the manufacturing, logistics, and healthcare industries. It was developed in 1981 by the Automatic Identification Manufacturers (AIM) organization as a high-density barcode capable of encoding large amounts of data. Code 128 can encode all 128 ASCII characters, including letters, numbers, and symbols, making it a versatile and powerful tool for data encoding. It uses three code sets (A, B, and C) to represent different types of characters, including uppercase letters, lowercase letters, and special characters. One of the key features of Code 128 is its high-density encoding. It can encode up to 106 alphanumeric characters in a single code, making it a useful tool for applications where a large amount of data needs to be encoded in a small space. Code 128 also includes a built-in error detection and correction mechanism, which ensures that the data is accurately read and transmitted. It uses check digits to verify the integrity of the data and can detect and correct errors caused by damage or distortion to the code.
