RFID Card Types

Image
RFID cards are used for contactless communication and come in various types based on their operating frequency, technology, and application. The most common RFID card types include: 1. Low Frequency (LF) Cards (125 kHz) Features: Operate at 125 kHz Short reading distance (up to 10 cm) Slow data transfer rate Common Standards: EM4100, EM4200, T5577 Applications: Animal tracking, access control systems, low-data applications 2. High Frequency (HF) Cards (13.56 MHz) Features: Operate at 13.56 MHz Reading distance up to 1 meter Moderate data transfer rate Can support encryption and read/write capabilities Common Standards: ISO 14443A/B: Used in NFC (Near Field Communication) cards like MIFARE and in contactless payment systems (e.g., bank cards) ISO 15693: Used in systems with longer read range than ISO 14443 NFC (Near Field Communication): Allows interaction with smartphones for mobile payments and data exchange Applications: Access control, transit cards, contactless payments, mob
