Near Field Communication is a type of RFID operating in the high-frequency range (13,56MHz), commonly employed in applications with a short contact range. The technology involves data exchange between two devices, typically an NFC reader and an NFC tag, establishing a high-frequency magnetic field for communication. Two prevalent signaling technologies, type A and type B of the ISO14443 standard, utilize distinct encoding methods.
When selecting NFC readers, considerations include ISO standards, supported interfaces, power consumption, and other features to enhance performance and ensure secure operations.
When seeking an NFC reader for your application, we recommend considering Holtek’s options. As a highlight, we present you the new BC45B4522. This reader is compatible with major global secured 
baseband ISO standards, such as ISO14443 type A & type B.
