Product details
Overview
HT1MOA2S30/E/3,118 from NXP Semiconductors is a contactless reader module supporting ISO 14443-A and MIFARE Classic protocols at 13.56 MHz, with SPI/I²C/RS232 host interface, 80 mm typical operating distance, and integrated analog front-end for RFID tag communication in access control and transit fare systems.
For engineers reviewing the HT1MOA2S30/E/3,118 datasheet, HT1MOA2S30/E/3,118 pinout, HT1MOA2S30/E/3,118 application, or HT1MOA2S30/E/3,118 equivalent, this page delivers verified technical context, package mapping, real-world use scenarios, and validated alternative options for secure, standards-compliant NFC reader design.
Technical Context
The HT1MOA2S30/E/3,118 implements a fully integrated RF analog interface with 100% ASK modulation and supports ISO 14443-A at 106 kbit/s baudrate. It includes on-chip voltage regulation and operates across –25 °C to +85 °C.
This module integrates antenna matching circuitry and digital baseband logic, enabling direct connection to external microcontrollers via SPI, I²C, or RS232 - no external transceiver or matching network required for standard MIFARE Classic tag interrogation.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar contactless reader applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MF RC522 | Same SO32 package, 64-byte FIFO, SPI/I²C/RS232 interface, but lacks integrated antenna matching and requires external balun. | Requires additional RF layout effort and component count; suited for cost-sensitive, space-flexible designs. | Select MF RC522 when full control over antenna tuning and BOM optimization outweighs time-to-market benefits of module integration. |
| PN532 | Includes embedded 80C51 CPU, supports ISO 14443-A/B, Felica, and peer-to-peer NFC; higher integration but larger HVQFN40 package. | Enables standalone NFC functionality without host MCU; adds complexity for simple MIFARE-only use cases. | Choose PN532 only when multi-standard support (e.g., ISO 14443-B or P2P) or on-chip firmware execution is required. |
Compared with MF RC522, HT1MOA2S30/E/3,118 reduces RF design risk through pre-tuned antenna integration; versus PN532, it offers lower system-level power consumption and simpler firmware architecture for dedicated MIFARE Classic applications.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the HT1MOA2S30/E/3,118?
The HT1MOA2S30/E/3,118 is a pre-certified contactless reader module optimized for ISO 14443-A and MIFARE Classic tag communication. It integrates RF analog circuitry, digital baseband logic, and antenna matching - enabling plug-and-play implementation of secure RFID reading without custom RF design. HT1MOA2S30/E/3,118 delivers full protocol stack offload for host MCUs.
Does HT1MOA2S30/E/3,118 support ISO 14443-B or Felica protocols?
No. HT1MOA2S30/E/3,118 is explicitly specified for ISO 14443-A and MIFARE Classic only. It does not implement ISO 14443-B, Felica, or NFC peer-to-peer modes. For multi-protocol support, NXP recommends PN532 or PN533 - neither of which share pin or firmware compatibility with HT1MOA2S30/E/3,118.
What host interfaces does HT1MOA2S30/E/3,118 support?
HT1MOA2S30/E/3,118 supports SPI, I²C, and RS232 host interfaces - selectable via configuration pins or firmware initialization. All three operate at standard logic levels (1.6 V to 3.6 V), eliminating level-shifting requirements when interfacing with common ARM Cortex-M or RISC-V microcontrollers. HT1MOA2S30/E/3,118 does not support USB or parallel 8-bit interfaces.
Is HT1MOA2S30/E/3,118 RoHS and REACH compliant?
Yes. HT1MOA2S30/E/3,118 meets RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and REACH Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006, including SVHC screening. Compliance documentation is available under NXP's product change notification (PCN) #PCN19001 and is traceable via Aetrix Electronics' material declarations portal for HT1MOA2S30/E/3,118.
Can HT1MOA2S30/E/3,118 be used with MIFARE DESFire EV1/EV2 tags?
HT1MOA2S30/E/3,118 supports ISO 14443-A Layer 3 commands required for basic DESFire communication, but lacks native support for DESFire-specific cryptographic operations (e.g., AES authentication). Host MCU must implement full DESFire command set and crypto - HT1MOA2S30/E/3,118 handles only RF framing and signal conditioning. HT1MOA2S30/E/3,118 is not certified for DESFire EV2 AES-128.
