RELATIONSHIP TO NFC |
EMVCo |
Payment |
Provides guidelines for NFC systems that accept payments or act as payment cards.
Level 1 addresses the conformance of transport layer of contactless communication. |
FeliCa |
Contactless Smartcard |
Developed by Sony and used primarily in Hong Kong, Japan, and Singapore, FeliCa is a contactless RFID smart card system that complies with JIS: X6319-4 and is also included as a condition for compliance with the NFC Forum specification. |
GlobalPlatform |
Secure Element |
Specifies a multi-application architecture for the secure elements used to protect transactions in NFC systems. |
ISO/IEC 7816 |
Contact smartcard |
Defines the requirements for contact cards communication. ISO7816-4 layer is also used for the command set layer of most ISO14443-4 contactless cards. |
ISO/IEC 10373-6 |
Proximity Card |
Defines test methods specific to proximity cards and objects. |
ISO/IEC 14443 |
Proximity Card |
Defines the most widely used standard for proximity cards, objects, and readers in payment, transport, identification, and more. Type A and Type B cards use the same transmission protocol, but differ in their modulation methods, coding schemes, and procedures for protocol utilization. NFC Forum Type 2 and Type 4 Tags are based on the ISO/IEC 14443 series. |
ISO/IEC 15693 |
Vicinity Card |
Defines a contactless card that can be read at a range of up to 1 m,a longer distance compared to proximity cards. The NFC Forum Type 5 Tag is based on ISO/IEC 15693, and delivers an expected read range with mobile phones that is slightly longer than with Type 2 Tags. |
ISO/IEC 18000-3M3 |
Item-level RFID |
Defines an EPC Global Gen2 HF reader with an air interface at 13.56 MHz, the same operating frequency as NFC. Used for highly stackable tags with fast bulk reading. |
ISO/IEC 18092 |
NFC Interface and Protocol |
Defines Near Field Communication. Incorporates portions of ISO/IEC 14443 and FeliCa. |
MIFARE |
Contactless Smartcard |
Refers to a contactless smartcard format compatible with NFC. Includes proprietary technologies based on various levels of the ISO/IEC 14443 A standard. |
MISRA-C |
Contactless Smartcard |
Provides NFC developers with guidelines for C programming in automotive. Developed by the Motor Industry Software Reliability Association. |
NFC Forum Specification |
NFC Devices |
Defines an NFC implementation that enables interoperability across NFC applications. |
