NTAG21X NFC blank magnetic stripe cards / Custom printed 13.56 mhz RFID card
NTAG21X smart card for NFC application
NTAG213, NTAG215 and NTAG216 have been developed by NXP Semiconductors as standard NFC tag ICs to be used in mass market applications such as retail, gaming and consumer electronics, in combination with NFC devices or NFC compliant Proximity Coupling Devices. NTAG213, NTAG215 and NTAG216 (from now on, generally called NTAG21x) are designed to fully comply to NFC Forum Type 2 Tag (Ref. 2) and ISO/IEC14443 Type A (Ref. 1) specifications.
Communication to NTAG21x can be established only when the IC is connected to an antenna. Form and specification of the coil is out of scope of this document.When NTAG21x is positioned in the RF field, the high speed RF communication interface allows the transmission of the data with a baud rate of 106 kbit/s.
NTAG21x offers specific features designed to improve integration and user convenience:
• The fast read capability allows to scan the complete NDEF message with only one
FAST_READ command, thus reducing the overhead in high throughput production environments
• The improved RF performance allows for more flexibility in the choice of shape,dimension and materials
• The option for 75 m IC thickness enables the manufacturing of ultrathin tags, for a more convenient integration in e.g. magazines or gaming cards.
