Aiming to increase the reach of card and mobile payment, Europay, Mastercard and Visa (EMV) point of sale (POS)
terminals are getting more lightweight, replacing hardware security with software and back-end security. Off-the-shelf
mobile devices, like your smart phone, can become an acceptance point for payment cards, a so-called SoftPOS.
This highly integrated NFC controller, optimized for designs that combine payments with other services, delivers
exceptional performance while simplifying design-in, reducing footprint, and enabling easy migration from current NFC
readers, including the PN5190.
The NCI interface offers seamless integration into Android 13 or Android 14, and the powerful transmitter combined with
a sensitive receiver allow to achieve EMVCo 3.1 analog and digital L1 compliancy even under challenging conditions.
The PN7221 version adds support for Apple ECP.
