Design and application notes
This NFC tag pairs the NXP NTAG213 chip with an HF coil antenna working at 13.56 MHz. As an ISO/IEC 14443-A, NFC Forum Type 2 tag it is read natively by NFC-enabled smartphones as well as by common HF readers.
NXP NTAG213 provides 144 bytes of user memory (NDEF), 7-byte UID. It follows ISO/IEC 14443-A, NFC Forum Type 2. Datasheet highlights: readable by NFC phones, 32-bit password protection, ECC originality signature, NFC counter with ASCII mirror and FAST_READ.
Full dimensions for this design are available on request. HF tags read at short range; the exact distance depends on the reader antenna, the tag antenna size and the surrounding material, so testing samples on your own items is the quickest way to confirm fit.
It is typically used for item-level labels for store inventory and cosmetic bottles, jars and caps. The application pages below give chip and size recommendations for each industry.
Order it as a dry inlay for your own converting, a wet inlay with adhesive and liner, or a finished label, blank or printed, with data such as an NDEF URL encoded and locked. We ship samples first so you can validate on your own items and readers, then quote the format you tested.
