MIFARE Inlay Sheet

MIFARE Inlay Sheet: Smart Contactless Card Component

The MIFARE Inlay Sheet is a high-performance, semi-finished RFID component designed for manufacturers of contactless smart cards and NFC products. This inlay serves as the core electronic layer (chip + antenna) that enables secure, contactless communication between a card and a reader in various applications such as access control, ticketing, transit, and loyalty systems.

Key Characteristics

• RF Technology: Utilizes high-frequency (HF) RFID operating at 13.56 MHz, compliant with ISO/IEC 14443 standards.

• Chip Integration: Incorporates MIFARE Classic or other MIFARE family chips, enabling robust read/write functionality and long data retention.

• Sheet Format: Typically supplied as A4 sheets suitable for post-production lamination into finished PVC cards.

• Passive Technology: No internal power source required — the inlay harvests energy from the RFID reader’s electromagnetic field.

Applications

This inlay sheet is ideal for industrial and commercial use in smart card production, including:

• Secure Access Cards for facilities and buildings

• Transport Tickets & Passes for buses, metro, and rail systems

• Loyalty & Membership Cards for retail and hospitality

• Contactless Payment Solutions and NFC-enabled interactions
