Product details
Overview
MF1PH2230DA4/00J from NXP Semiconductors is a MIFARE Plus EV2 contactless smart card IC operating at 13.56 MHz, featuring 2 kB non-volatile memory, 4-byte NUID, 70 pF input capacitance, AES-128 cryptography, and Common Criteria EAL5+ security certification. It serves as a secure authentication element in transit cards, access badges, and electronic vouchers with backward compatibility to MIFARE Classic EV1.
For engineers reviewing the MF1PH2230DA4/00J datasheet, MF1PH2230DA4/00J pinout, MF1PH2230DA4/00J application, or MF1PH2230DA4/00J equivalent, key selection considerations include SL1/SL3 security level migration capability, Random ID support for GDPR-compliant deployments, Transaction Timer for MITM mitigation, and MOA4 SOT500-2 package compatibility with compact form factors like wristbands and key fobs.
Technical Context
The MF1PH2230DA4/00J implements dual-mode protocol support: ISO/IEC 14443-3 for MIFARE Classic EV1 backward compatibility and ISO/IEC 14443-4 (T=CL) for SL3 secure messaging. Its memory architecture comprises 32 sectors of 4 blocks each (2 kB total), with sector trailers containing CRYPTO1 keys A/B and access bytes governing DaVaBlock permissions.
Security operation is governed by three configurable levels: SL0 (personalization), SL1 (CRYPTO1 + optional AES), and SL3 (AES-128 mandatory, encrypted communication, TMAC). The chip supports both symmetric AES-based originality verification and asymmetric ECC-based NXP Originality Signature, with anti-tearing protection for AES key updates and data block writes.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory size | 2 kB non-volatile EEPROM organized in 32 sectors × 4 blocks (16 bytes/block); enables seamless migration from MIFARE Classic 1K infrastructure. |
| UID type | 4-byte NUID (non-unique identifier); reduces collision risk in high-density reader environments while supporting ISO/IEC 14443-3 Random ID compliance. |
| Input capacitance | 70 pF; optimized for compact antenna designs in key fobs and wristbands without requiring external tuning components. |
| Security certification | Common Criteria EAL5+ (AVA_VAN.5); validated resistance against high-potential attackers, meeting banking and e-passport security requirements. |
| Communication speed | Up to 848 kbit/s; enables fast transaction processing in high-throughput transit gates and payment terminals. |
| Retention time | 25 years at 25 °C; ensures long-term data integrity for multi-year loyalty programs and season passes. |
| Write endurance | 200,000–1,000,000 cycles; supports frequent balance updates in micro-payment and access logging applications. |
Pinout & Package
MF1PH2230DA4/00J is housed in the MOA4 plastic leadless module carrier package (SOT500-2), designed for automated assembly on thin-film antennas and compact wearable substrates. The package features two RF interface terminals only.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| LA | Antenna coil connection A | RF input/output terminal for half-duplex inductive coupling; connects directly to one end of printed loop antenna. |
| LB | Antenna coil connection B | RF input/output terminal completing resonant LC tank; requires matching network tuning for optimal 13.56 MHz power transfer. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| SL1/SL3 sector-wise security upgrade | Enables phased migration of legacy infrastructure: individual sectors can be upgraded to SL3 without disrupting SL1 operations elsewhere on the same card. |
| Transaction Timer | Configurable timeout per transaction prevents man-in-the-middle replay attacks by invalidating delayed responses beyond operator-defined thresholds. |
| Transaction MAC (TMAC) | Provides cryptographic checksum over full transaction payload (value + data blocks), enabling clearing entities to verify end-to-end integrity in payment systems. |
| SL1 Update Restrictions | Allows restriction of increment/decrement/write operations on Data/Value Blocks and Sector Trailers without permanent locking-preserving future reconfiguration flexibility. |
| ECC-based Originality Signature | Enables offline verification of genuine NXP silicon using public-key cryptography, critical for anti-counterfeiting in event ticketing and government ID schemes. |
Applications
| Public Transportation | Access Management |

IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Value block management with atomic increment/decrement/transfer commands and anti-tearing write protection. Use Value: Guarantees balance consistency across intermittent power loss during top-up or redemption, preventing negative balances or double-spending. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar contactless authentication IC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MF1PH2200DA4/00 | 7-byte UID instead of 4-byte NUID; identical 2 kB memory, 70 pF input capacitance, MOA4 package, and SL0/SL1/SL3 feature set. | Required where globally unique identifiers are mandated for system-level anti-collision or centralized database indexing. | Select MF1PH2200DA4/00 when UID uniqueness is prioritized over Random ID privacy compliance. |
| MF1P2230DA4/00 | 17 pF input capacitance (vs. 70 pF); same 2 kB memory, 4-byte NUID, MOA4 package, and security architecture-but optimized for standard smart card PCB antennas, not compact form factors. | Suitable for ISO/IEC 14443-3 compliant proximity cards with conventional antenna layouts, not space-constrained wearables. | Select MF1P2230DA4/00 when deploying in traditional credit-card-sized formats with fixed antenna geometry. |
Compared with MF1PH2200DA4/00, MF1PH2230DA4/00 trades global UID uniqueness for enhanced privacy via NUID + Random ID, while differing from MF1P2230DA4/00 in antenna interface design-70 pF enables smaller, lower-inductance antennas essential for key fobs and wristbands without retuning.

FAQ
What security certifications does the MF1PH2230DA4/00J hold?
The MF1PH2230DA4/00J is certified to Common Criteria EAL5+ (AVA_VAN.5), confirming resistance against high-potential attackers. This certification aligns with requirements for banking-grade and electronic passport ICs. It also fully complies with ISO/IEC 14443-4 and ISO/IEC 7816-4 (Security Level 3), ensuring interoperability with existing NFC infrastructure and backend clearing systems. No additional third-party validation is required to claim this certification for MF1PH2230DA4/00J.
How does the MF1PH2230DA4/00J support migration from MIFARE Classic systems?
The MF1PH2230DA4/00J operates in SL1 mode with full MIFARE Classic EV1 backward compatibility-including CRYPTO1 authentication and identical command structure-allowing drop-in replacement in existing readers. Its sector-wise SL3 upgrade capability lets operators incrementally enhance security per application zone (e.g., finance sectors first), without replacing hardware or disrupting legacy services. MF1PH2230DA4/00J maintains identical ATQA/SAK responses in SL1 mode to ensure transparent integration.
What is the functional difference between the 4-byte NUID and 7-byte UID versions of MF1PH2230DA4/00J?
The MF1PH2230DA4/00J uses a 4-byte NUID (non-unique identifier), which reduces UID collision probability in dense reader fields and enables ISO/IEC 14443-3 Random ID mode for privacy-sensitive deployments. In contrast, 7-byte UID variants (e.g., MF1PH2200DA4/00) provide globally unique identifiers required for centralized tracking but expose persistent identifiers. Both share identical memory, security features, and package-only UID length and Random ID capability differ.
Can the MF1PH2230DA4/00J be used in wristband or key fob form factors?
Yes-the MF1PH2230DA4/00J's 70 pF input capacitance is specifically engineered for compact antenna geometries found in wristbands, key fobs, and other small-format devices. Unlike 17 pF variants (e.g., MF1P2230DA4/00), it eliminates the need for external matching capacitors or antenna redesign when scaling down from ISO/IEC 7816-1 ID-1 cards. Its MOA4 SOT500-2 package supports direct flip-chip bonding to flexible substrates, making MF1PH2230DA4/00J ideal for wearables.
Does the MF1PH2230DA4/00J support both symmetric and asymmetric originality verification?
Yes-MF1PH2230DA4/00J provides dual originality verification: (1) symmetric AES-128 authentication using a dedicated 128-bit Originality Key, usable in all security levels; and (2) asymmetric ECC-based NXP Originality Signature, retrievable via the Read_Sig command. The latter requires only a public key for verification and supports offline authenticity checks-critical for unconnected gate readers in transport or event venues. Both methods are implemented in silicon and documented in the MF1PH2230DA4/00J product specification.
