Contactless Data Transmission and Power Supply
13.56 MHz operating frequency 106 kbit/s data transmission
16-bit CRC, parity check, bit encoding, and bit counting for data integrity
Operating range up to 100 mm
Triggers automatic NFC counter during read commands; NFC counter ASCII mirror
Used to automatically add the NFC counter value to the NDEF message
Tag Tamper Detection: Checks whether the tag tamper line is active after initialization
If a tamper event is detected
The tag tamper message (ASCII mirror) copies a custom tag tamper message into the NDEF message
ECC-based digital signature, offering the possibility of customization and permanent locking
Description
Compared to the NTAG 213, the NTAG 213TT offers expanded functionality, providing additional benefits for smart packaging and brand protection. The NTAG 213TT features a new tag tampering function designed to detect the status of the tag’s tamper-detection wire during the initialization process. If an open circuit is detected in the wire, the NTAG 213TT will permanently store this event. The status information of the tag tamper wire can be mirrored in ASCII format to the user memory containing NDEF data, or it can be read via a dedicated command. Furthermore, the NTAG 213TT provides an improved authenticity signature that can be programmed and locked during tag initialization. The NTAG 213TT is fully compliant with the NFC Forum Type 2 Tag (Ref. 2) and ISO/IEC 14443 Type A (Ref. 1) specifications.
Features
Anti-Collision
The intelligent anti-collision feature allows multiple tags to operate simultaneously in the field. The anti-collision algorithm selects each tag individually. It ensures that transactions with the selected tag are executed correctly without interference from other tags in the field.
