The MF RC530 is member of a new family of highly integrated reader ICs for contactless
communication at 13.56 MHz. This reader IC family utilises an outstanding modulation and
demodulation concept completely integrated for all kinds of passive contactless communication methods and protocols at 13.56 MHz. The MF RC530 is pin- compatible to the MF RC500, the MF RC531 and the SL RC400.The MF RC530 supports all layers of the
ISO14443A communication scheme.The MF RC530 supports contactless communication using MIFARE? Higher Baudrates. The internal transmitter part is able to drive an antenna designed for proximity operating distance (up to 100 mm) directly without additional active circuitry.The receiver part provides a robust and efficient implementation of a demodulation and decoding circuitry for signals from ISO14443A compatible transponders.The digital part handles the complete ISO14443A framing and error detection (Parity & CRC).Additionally it supports the fast MIFARE? Classic security algorithm to authenticate MIFAREò Classic (e.g. MIFARE? Standard, MIFARE? Light) products. A comfortable parallel interface, which can be directly connected to any 8-bit μ-Processor gives high flexibility for the reader/terminal design. Additionally a SPI compatible interface is supported.
