An electronic component-identification system for use in identifying a plurality of components, said system comprising a plurality of differently coded passive component tags adapted to be respectively secured to said plurality of components, a master tag including a memory, a transceiver for receiving a coded interrogation signal, means for storing the different codes from said plurality of component tags in said memory of said master tag, said master tag further comprising logic means for comparing the codes stored in said memory with the coded interrogation signal received at said master tag from said transceiver and for producing a component-identification signal for each matching code comparison, and means for applying said component-identification signal to said transceiver for transmission to a remote station.
