Technical Specifications
NFC NTAG Series cards are manufactured by NXP Semiconductors and operate at 13.56 MHz. These cards primarily differ in EEPROM memory size and endurance (number of scans):
•NTAG213: 144 bytes (usable) memory, up to 50,000 scans endurance.
•NTAG215: 504 bytes (usable) memory, up to 100,000 scans endurance.
•NTAG216: 888 bytes (usable) memory, up to 100,000 scans endurance.
Each card features a 7-byte Unique Identifier (UID) and supports data transfer rates up to 106 kbps with a reading range of up to 10 cm depending on the reader.
