KEOLABS offers off-the-shelf solutions to verify conformity of NFC enabled objects and systems to relevant standards including NFC forum.
The testing environment meets strict conformance requirements to NFC Forum standards for verifying analog, digital and application implementations in passive devices (cards, tags, mobiles, etc) and active systems (readers, mobiles).
The NFC Forum provides international test specifications for functional validation at the analog and protocol levels of phones, tags, devices and other systems implementing the NFC protocol in 13.56 Mhz contactless communications.These specifications are the foundation for ensuring the reliability and interoperability of NFC systems and devices.The NFC Forum specifications and derived testing solutions allow conformance assessment of:
• End-user contactless devices (smart cards (PICC), tags, keyfobs, NFC handsets)
• Packaged devices (inlays, modules)
• Embedded integrated circuits (hardware chips, secure elements)
KEOLABS provides complete testing solutions developed and qualified in accordance with NFC Forum requirements.
• NFC Forum Test Cases for Analog and Digital Protocol
