The NFC Forum divides Device Classes into two groups. Device Classes are defined in the first category, ensuring interoperability between all Device Classes. The NFC Forum Reader devices strongly suggests this category since it guarantees compatibility in an open environment across all Device Classes.
The second group of device classes, which is described , is designated as a specialized market environment and is defined to satisfy the needs of particular market segments. Within that market segment, the Device Classes established for a particular market ecosystem are compatible.
However, because not all interoperability modules required for the open ecosystem are built, those particular Device Classes cannot communicate with one another in the open ecosystem. This second category is introduced by NFC Forum to satisfy the application requirements of particular markets.
The Global NFC Forum Reader Devices market accounted for $XX Billion in 2021 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
Two new NFC Forum Reader devices from STMicroelectronics, the ST25R3916B-AQWT and ST25R3917B-AQWT, have been released.
They support NFC initiator, target, reader, and card-emulation modes and can be used for brand protection, contactless payments, device pairing, wireless charging, and other commercial and consumer applications.
These new gadgets improve active wave shaping (AWS) with more flexibility, making it easier to change the RF output to get the best overshoot and undershoot.These gadgets have an RF output power of up to 1.6W and are highly effective in driving antennas directly.
Designers can maintain the radiated power between the upper and lower limitations specified by EMVCo and the NFC Forum requirements by using dynamic power-output (DPO) modification.
These devices feature high immunity to interference from other surrounding devices thanks to a noise-suppression receiver (NSR) and a highly noise-resistant input construction.
