Cartes et dispositifs de sécurité pour l'identification personnelle - Objets sans contact de proximité - Partie 3: Initialisation et anticollision - AMENDEMENT 2: Améliorations pour harmonisation​

Scope: CSA ISO/IEC 14443-3:19

This document describes the following:

• polling for proximity cards or objects (PICCs) entering the field of a proximity coupling device (PCD);
• the byte format, the frames and timing used during the initial phase of communication between PCDs and PICCs;
• the initial Request and Answer to Request command content;
• methods to detect and communicate with one PICC among several PICCs (anticollision);
• other parameters required to initialize communications between a PICC and PCD;
• optional means to ease and speed up the selection of one PICC among several PICCs based on application criteria;
• optional capability to allow a device to alternate between the functions of a PICC and a PCD to communicate with a PCD or a PICC, respectively. A device which implements this capability is called a PXD.

Protocol and commands used by higher layers and by applications and which are used after the initial phase are described in ISO/IEC 14443-4.

This document is applicable to PICCs of Type A and of Type B (as described in ISO/IEC 14443-2), to PCDs (as described in ISO/IEC 14443-2) and to PXDs.

NOTE 1 Part of the timing of data communication is defined in ISO/IEC 14443-2.

NOTE 2 Test methods for this document are defined in ISO/IEC 10373-6.
