Deep-Dive: How Code 39 Encodes Data

Code 39 (also designated "Code 3 of 9" and standardized under ISO/IEC 16388) is one of the most battle-tested linear barcode symbologies in industrial history. Developed in 1974 by Dr. David Allais and Raymond Stevens at Intermec, Code 39 earned its name because each character symbol is composed of 9 total elements (5 bars and 4 spaces), exactly 3 of which are wide. Because of its wide optical tolerances and self-checking architecture, it remains the mandated standard for US Department of Defense military supply chains (MIL-STD-129 / LOGMARS) and automotive manufacturing (AIAG).

⚙️ 43-Character Set & Discrete Element Architecture

Code 39 is a discrete symbology, meaning each character pattern is separated from its neighbor by an inter-character space:

  • ›Standard Character Repertoire: Encodes 43 alphanumeric characters: 0–9, capital letters A–Z, and 7 symbols (-, ., $, /, +, %, and space).
  • ›Start and Stop Delimiters: Every Code 39 barcode must begin and terminate with an asterisk character (*), which sets the direction and timing for the scanner.
  • ›Wide-to-Narrow Ratio (N:W): The wide elements must be between 2.0 and 3.0 times the width of the narrow elements (typically 2.5:1 or 3.0:1) to ensure accurate threshold detection.
  • ›Optional Modulo 43 Checksum: While Code 39 is self-checking, mission-critical applications (such as defense logistics and medical patient bands) can append an optional Modulo 43 check character for near-zero error tolerance.

🔬 Physical Barcode Anatomy & Zone Breakdown

Quiet Zones
Minimum 10 times the narrow element width (X-dimension) or 0.25 inches (6.35 mm) on both lateral ends.
Start Asterisk (*)
Standard 9-element pattern signaling the beginning of data stream.
Inter-Character Gaps
Narrow space between consecutive characters preventing optical merge errors.
Data Characters
Discrete 9-element patterns encoding alphanumeric information.
Optional Mod 43 Check Digit
Mathematical verification character for high-security applications.
Stop Asterisk (*)
Matching terminator pattern completing scanner read sequence.

🖨️ Production & Printing Best Practices

  • ✔Because Code 39 requires 9 elements plus an inter-character gap per character, it produces wider barcodes than Code 128. If your label space is constrained, consider switching to Code 128.
  • ✔Do not display the start/stop asterisks in the human-readable text unless specifically required by your organization’s specification.
  • ✔Use high wide-to-narrow ratios (3:1) when printing on low-resolution corrugated cardboard to compensate for ink bleed.

Optical Scanner Compatibility: Compatible with virtually every legacy and modern barcode reader manufactured since 1975, including laser wands, CCD guns, fixed-mount industrial scanners, and smartphone cameras.

よくある質問 (FAQ)

What is Code 39?

Code 39 (also called Code 3 of 9) is a discrete, self-checking linear barcode symbology capable of encoding 43 alphanumeric characters. Each character is represented by 9 elements (5 bars and 4 spaces), 3 of which are wide.

Does Code 39 require an asterisk (*) start/stop character?

Yes, Code 39 uses an asterisk (*) as the start and stop character. MakeMyBarcode automatically handles and formats the start/stop characters for you.
