Product details
Overview
MF0FCP2U10/DH from NXP Semiconductors is a MIFARE Classic 1K contactless smart card IC in flip-chip SOT732CA2 package, operating at 13.56 MHz with 14.85–20.13 pF input capacitance, 3.8 ms EEPROM write time, and 5-year data retention at ≤55 °C. It serves as the RF interface and secure memory core in proximity identification systems.
For engineers reviewing the MF0FCP2U10/DH datasheet, MF0FCP2U10/DH pinout, MF0FCP2U10/DH application, or MF0FCP2U10/DH equivalent, key selection criteria include 13.56 MHz ISO/IEC 14443 Type A compliance, on-chip EEPROM endurance (10,000 cycles), thermal operating range (−25 to +70 °C), and SOT732CA2 flip-chip mechanical integration requirements.
Technical Context
The MF0FCP2U10/DH implements ISO/IEC 14443 Type A communication protocol with integrated RF analog front-end, digital baseband controller, and 1 Kbit EEPROM memory. It derives power and clock from the 13.56 MHz carrier field and supports anti-collision and cryptographic authentication via the MIFARE Classic cipher.
This device operates without external power supply, relying solely on inductive coupling. Its electrical interface consists of two terminals (LA/LB) for antenna connection, with no conventional pinout-functionally defined by the SOT732CA2 flip-chip layout and bond pad geometry per FCP2 package specification.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar contactless smart card IC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MF0ICU10 | Dies-only version of same IC; requires separate packaging and antenna integration | Used in custom module designs where flip-chip mounting is not feasible | Select MF0FCP2U10/DH when SOT732CA2 flip-chip assembly and pre-characterized CIN are required |
| MF0FCP2U11/DH | Higher input capacitance (42.5–57.5 pF); identical functionality and package | Better suited for lower-inductance antenna designs or shorter trace layouts | Choose MF0FCP2U11/DH only if antenna impedance modeling confirms improved matching with higher CIN |
Compared with MF0ICU10, MF0FCP2U10/DH offers factory-integrated flip-chip assembly and verified input capacitance-reducing RF tuning effort. Against MF0FCP2U11/DH, it provides tighter CIN tolerance for predictable antenna resonance in high-volume card production.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the MF0FCP2U10/DH in a contactless system?
The MF0FCP2U10/DH functions as a complete ISO/IEC 14443-A compliant contactless smart card IC, integrating RF analog front-end, digital baseband controller, and 1 Kbit EEPROM. It enables secure, battery-free communication with readers via magnetic induction at 13.56 MHz. The MF0FCP2U10/DH handles power harvesting, modulation/demodulation, anti-collision, and cryptographic authentication-making it self-contained for credential and transaction applications.
Does the MF0FCP2U10/DH require external components for operation?
No, the MF0FCP2U10/DH operates autonomously when connected to a properly tuned loop antenna. It requires only two terminals (LA and LB) linked to an external antenna coil-no external power supply, clock source, or supporting ICs are needed. Antenna design must account for the device's specified input capacitance (14.85–20.13 pF) to achieve resonance at 13.56 MHz, but no discrete capacitors, resistors, or regulators are required in the signal path.
How does the MF0FCP2U10/DH differ from the MF0FCP2U11/DH?
The MF0FCP2U10/DH and MF0FCP2U11/DH share identical functionality, package (SOT732CA2), and protocol compliance, but differ in input capacitance: MF0FCP2U10/DH specifies 14.85–20.13 pF, while MF0FCP2U11/DH specifies 42.5–57.5 pF. This difference affects antenna tuning-MF0FCP2U10/DH suits higher-inductance antennas, whereas MF0FCP2U11/DH better matches lower-inductance or compact layouts. Both retain identical EEPROM specs and operating temperature range.
What is the maximum write endurance and data retention of the MF0FCP2U10/DH EEPROM?
The MF0FCP2U10/DH EEPROM guarantees 10,000 write cycles and 5 years of data retention when stored at ambient temperatures ≤55 °C. These values are measured and specified per NXP's product data sheet Rev. 3.1 (2007). Retention degrades above 55 °C; for extended high-temperature environments, derating or alternative memory technologies should be evaluated. The MF0FCP2U10/DH does not support wear leveling or error correction-application firmware must manage write distribution.
Is the MF0FCP2U10/DH compatible with NFC-enabled smartphones?
Yes, the MF0FCP2U10/DH is compatible with NFC smartphones operating in reader/writer mode and supporting ISO/IEC 14443-A. It responds to standard commands (e.g., REQA, WUPA, SELECT) and implements the MIFARE Classic 1K memory structure, which is widely supported by Android and iOS NFC stacks. However, cryptographic authentication requires proper key management in the host application-NFC phones can read/write unsecured sectors but need correct keys to access protected areas of the MF0FCP2U10/DH.
