RFID contactless cards

MIFARE ® is a registered trademark, property of the company NXP Semiconductors. The use of MIFARE has become so widespread (more than 70% of market share) that today the term MIFARE is used extensively to designate any kind of RFID product: MIFARE card, MIFARE badge, MIFARE tag, MIFARE label. But MIFARE is a precise technology, which has its strengths and disadvantages which you must know to ensure the compatibility of the MIFARE card with your application.

EM4102: this read-only 125Khz RFID access badge allows the use of time clocks in companies for checking access and attendance. Easy to use, this RFID badge avoids mechanical wear and tear of the installations, and is especially appreciated for its greater communication distance (up to about 10 cm) as well as its reduced price.

MIFARE Ultralight ®: a 13,56Mhz high frequency RFID chip that meets the ISO 14443A standard. Developed by NXP, it is appreciated for its ease of use and low cost. Ideal solution to replace traditional barcode ticket systems, this contactless RFID card has an anti-collision system and a communication distance of up to 6 cm.

Among the RFID cards, the MIFARE ® 13,56 Mhz card is posted up at the lowest price. A pioneer of passive RFID technology on plastic cards, this MIFARE badge is now widely used in access control, transport and loyalty systems. Taking advantage of a competitive selling price, largely compatible with multiple identification applications, the MIFARE ® card is THE safe bet for your premises access management.

MIFARE DESFire ® EV2 is the high security chip evolution developed by NXP. This high frequency technology RFID badge in 13,56 MHz, multi-application thanks to its microprocessors and encoding algorithms, allows a high level of security for personal identification on sensitive sites.

RFID card at 13.56Mhz frequency, the Icode SLI S card has a greater reading distance than other members of its family. It is widely used in RFID access control applications, but also for the identification and tracking of goods.

The 13,56MHz contactless intelligent iCLASS ® card is ideal for its read and write capacity and can be used in diverse applications such as access control, biometric recognition systems, sales without cash, public transport, plane boarding pass issuing and loyalty programs. The use of multiple files, separated to guarantee security, allows it to be used with numerous applications and can be used as a basis for future growth. In terms of safety of identification systems, the iClass ID badge may be considered as an intermediary between the MIFARE Classic ® and MIFARE DESFire ® technologies.

The HID Crescendo card is a high-security multi-technology card that allows the use of physical access and logical access to be combined in a single identification badge in a corporate environment. This RFID card in standard credit card format is thus ready to be used in thousands of applications.
