General description
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 and
ISO/IEC14443 Type A specifications.
Target applications include Out-of-Home and print media smart advertisement, SoLoMo
applications, product authentication, NFC shelf labels, mobile companion tags.
Target use cases include Out-of-Home smart advertisement, product authentication,
mobile companion tags, Bluetooth or Wi-Fi pairing, electronic shelf labels and business
cards. NTAG21x memory can also be segmented to implement multiple applications at
the same time.
Thanks to the high input capacitance, NTAG21x tag ICs are particularly tailored for
applications requiring small footprints, without compromise on performance. Small NFC
tags can be more easily embedded into e.g. product labels or electronic devices.
The mechanical and electrical specifications of NTAG21x are tailored to meet the
requirements of inlay and tag manufacturers.
Security
• Manufacturer programmed 7-byte UID for each device
• Pre-programmed Capability container with one time programmable bits
• Field programmable read-only locking function
• ECC based originality signature
• 32-bit password protection to prevent unauthorized memory operations
NTAG21x IC provides full compliance to the NFC Forum Tag 2 Type technical
specification and enables NDEF data structure configurations
An intelligent anticollision function allows to operate more than one tag in the field
simultaneously. The anticollision algorithm selects each tag individually and ensures that
the execution of a transaction with a selected tag is performed correctly without
interference from another tag in the field
NFC counter ASCII mirror for automatic adding the NFC counter value to the NDEF
message Operating frequency of 13.56 MHz
The RF-interface is based on the ISO/IEC 14443 Type A standard.
