Difference between NFC Forum Tag 2 and Mifare Ultralight from developers perspective?


I read someplace that Mifare ultralight was ALMOST the same as NFC Forum Tag 2, but not quite. So what is the difference between them?

Can I use the same libnfc commands to access them for example?


Solution

  • NFC Forum are specification. Mifare Ultralight is a product.

    Mifare Ultralight is compatible with NFC Forum Type 2 Tag.

    Here a usefull document to summarize: http://open-nfc.org/documents/PRE_NFC_0804-250%20NFC%20Standards.pdf
