Please check the new online NFC Antenna Tool for tag and reader devices.

The PN5180 is a high-performance full NFC Forum-compliant frontend IC for various contactless communication methods and protocols. It is optimized for POS terminal applications, allows to achieve compliancy to EMVCo 3.1 analog and digital and implements a high-power NFC frontend functionality, which allows achieving EMV compliance on RF-level without additional external active components. The independence of a real-time host controller interaction makes the PN5180 a good choice for systems, which operate a preemptive multitasking OS like Linux™ or Android.
