Near Field Communication (NFC)

Near Field Communication (NFC) is a technology for wireless transfer of small amounts of data between two devices. The provided NFC libraries are RTOS-agnostic and built for Nordic Semiconductor nRF52 and nRF53 Series SoCs.

See the Near Field Communication (NFC) user guide for information about how to use the libraries in the nRF Connect SDK.

The following libraries are available:

Type 2 Tag

Supports NFC-A Type 2 Tag in read-only mode. See Type 2 Tag for more information.

The following variants are available:

  • libnfct2t_nrf52 (for nRF52832, nRF52833, and nRF52840)

  • libnfct2t_nrf53 (for nRF5340)

Type 4 Tag

Supports NFC-A Type 4 Tag. See Type 4 Tag for more information.

The following variants are available:

  • libnfct4t_nrf52 (for nRF52832, nRF52833, and nRF52840)

  • libnfct4t_nrf53 (for nRF5340)

Each library is distributed in both soft-float and hard-float builds.
