NFC Consulting
Overview
TapTrack has expertise in multiple areas of NFC technology and can provide consulting on many different facets of NFC solution development.
Application Development
If you are considering an application that uses NFC, TapTrack can provide consulting for the entire NFC stack required to enable your application. From tag selection all the way to custom reader design, TapTrack can consult on any facet of your application’s NFC requirements in order to make the NFC integration as painless as possible.
Hardware Design
TapTrack has significant experience with custom NFC reader development. Our own Tappy NFC reader was developed in-house as well as custom reader projects for various clients supporting ISO/IEC 14443 and 15693 standard. TapTrack’s hardware design services include the following:
- Schematic Capture
- PCB Layout
- NFC Firmware Development
- Managing Bareboard Manufacture
- Managing PCB Assembly
- Testing
NFC Antenna Design and Testing
The antenna design is one of the most important parts of any NFC reader design project. Even the most powerful amplified reader chips will provide poor performance when paired with a poorly optimized antenna. Our engineers use a three-pronged approach using network analyzers, the latest RF design software, and read range performance measurements to achieve the best results. If required, we can also implement external amplification to increase the power output of the NFC reader chip.
