Near Field Communications (NFC) is a RF communication protocol which allows low data rate transmission between two devices which are typically less than 10cm apart.

As in any electronic/RF Chip, there are multiple vendors providing chips implementing the protocol. NXP semiconductor is co-inventor of this RF communication protocol and they offer wide range of products/Chips.

Mainstream NFC applications are Payment (cards, mobile), Access (cards/mobile), Identity (ID cards, Passports). Advanced applications include NFC wireless Charging, Smart Sensors, Smart Product Authentication
