1.1 Key applications

• Limited use tickets for public transport
• Limited use tickets for event ticketing

1.2 Contactless energy and data transfer
MF0ICU1 is connected to a coil with a few turns. The MF0ICU1 fits the TFC.0 (Edmondson) and TFC.1 (ISO) ticket formats as defined in BS EN753-2.
TFC.1 format tickets are supported by the MF0ICU10 chip which features a 17 pF on-chip resonance capacitor.
The smaller TFC.0 format tickets are supported by the MF0ICU11 chip which features a 50 pF on-chip resonance capacitor.
1.3 Anticollision
An intelligent anticollision function enables simultaneous multicard operation. The anticollision algorithm individually selects each card and ensures correct execution of a transaction with the selected card without data corruption from other cards in the field.
1.3.1 Cascaded Unique IDentification (UID)
The anticollision function is based on an IC individual serial number called Unique Identification (UID) for each IC. The UID of the MF0ICU1 comprises 7 bytes and supports ISO/IEC 14443-3 cascade level 2.
1.4 Security

• 7-byte UID in accordance with ISO/IEC 14443-3 for each device
• 32-bit user definable One-Time Programmable (OTP) area
• Field programmable read-only locking function per page

1.5 Delivery options
MF0ICU1 can be delivered in packaged or wafer form. Refer to delivery type description for more information.

• Recently, id card the NFC mobile phone industry has new change and progress. The frequent movements in the manufacturers indicate a brand new gestation process therefore, the practitioners pay attention to this industry again. The report of Forrester shows that shipment of NFC cellphone will reach 40 million sets to 50 million sets around of 2011. Experts maintain how the Chinese market will begin obviously from the facet of NFC cell phone market. There will be several types of cell phone available on the market in those days. Sudden expenses from the smart phone can have this function within the second half of 2012.
