Overview
MF3DA200DA6/02J from NXP Semiconductors is a contactless multi-application IC compliant with ISO/IEC 14443A, featuring 32 KB EEPROM, 17 pF input capacitance, Common Criteria EAL5+ security certification, and support for AES-128 and 3DES cryptographic engines. It enables secure public transport ticketing, micro-payment, and smart city mobility cards with Transaction MAC and MIsmartApp delegated management.
For engineers reviewing the MF3DA200DA6/02J datasheet, MF3DA200DA6/02J pinout, MF3DA200DA6/02J application, or MF3DA200DA6/02J equivalent, key selection considerations include its 32 KB NV memory capacity, EAL5+ hardware/software security certification, ISO/IEC 7816-4 APDU compatibility, Transaction MAC file type, and SOT500-3 MOB6 module carrier package.
Technical Context
The MF3DA200DA6/02J implements a dedicated contactless interface compliant with ISO/IEC 14443-2/3A and ISO/IEC 14443-4, supporting data rates up to 848 kbit/s and configurable frame size (up to 256 bytes for 16/32 KB variants). Its on-chip CPU executes a secure operating system with mutual three-pass authentication and hardware-accelerated cryptographic engines for DES, 3DES, and AES-128.
Memory organization uses a flexible file system with unlimited applications, each supporting up to 32 files across six types-including Standard Data, Value, Linear/Cyclic Record, Backup Data, and Transaction MAC files. File sizes are user-defined at creation, and automatic anti-tear ensures transaction-oriented data integrity across all backup-capable file types.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar contactless multi-application IC applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MF3D9200DA6/02 | 16 KB EEPROM; identical MOB6/SOT500-3 package and 17 pF input capacitance | Suitable where application footprint fits within 16 KB and lower memory cost is prioritized | Select when total application + file overhead remains below 14.5 KB usable space |
| MF3DH2200DA6/01 | 2 KB EEPROM; 70 pF input capacitance; same MOB6 package but different capacitance grade | Targeted for ultra-small form factor antennas requiring higher capacitive loading | Choose only if antenna design mandates 70 pF tuning - not interchangeable due to capacitance mismatch |
Compared with MF3DA200DA6/02J, MF3D9200DA6/02 offers reduced memory at lower cost for simpler multi-service deployments, while MF3DH2200DA6/01 serves niche small-antenna designs but lacks both memory scale and cryptographic feature parity.

FAQ
What security certifications does the MF3DA200DA6/02J hold?
The MF3DA200DA6/02J is certified to Common Criteria EAL5+ for both hardware and software components - the same assurance level used in banking cards and e-passports. This covers the full stack: cryptographic engine implementation, secure boot, memory protection, and side-channel resistance. The MF3DA200DA6/02J also supports optional Random ID generation and Originality Check to prevent counterfeiting and enhance privacy.
How much user memory is available on the MF3DA200DA6/02J?
The MF3DA200DA6/02J provides 32 KB of EEPROM non-volatile memory, with typical data retention of 25 years and write endurance of 500,000 cycles. Usable space depends on application structure - each application supports up to 32 files, and file sizes are defined at creation. Overhead for file headers, keys, and system structures reduces net payload capacity, but real-world deployments routinely utilize >28 KB for multi-application configurations.
Does the MF3DA200DA6/02J support ISO/IEC 7816-4 commands?
Yes, the MF3DA200DA6/02J fully supports ISO/IEC 7816-4 APDU structure and command set, including SELECT FILE (INS A4), READ BINARY (B0), UPDATE BINARY (D6), READ RECORDS (B2), APPEND RECORD (E2), GET CHALLENGE (84), INTERNAL AUTHENTICATE (88), and EXTERNAL AUTHENTICATE (82). It also supports ISO/IEC 7816-4 file selection by DF name or File ID, enabling interoperability with existing smart card infrastructure.
What is the difference between MF3DA200DA6/02J and MF3D9200DA6/02?
The MF3DA200DA6/02J contains 32 KB of EEPROM and is optimized for complex, multi-service deployments requiring large application footprints, while MF3D9200DA6/02 offers 16 KB in the same MOB6/SOT500-3 package. Both share identical RF performance, security features, and pinout. The MF3DA200DA6/02J enables more concurrent applications, larger transaction logs, and deeper nested file structures without memory constraints.
Can the MF3DA200DA6/02J operate in backward-compatible mode with older MIFARE DESFire systems?
Yes, the MF3DA200DA6/02J operates in default delivery configuration as a MIFARE DESFire EV1 device, ensuring full interoperability with legacy readers and infrastructure. All EV2-specific features - including Transaction MAC, MIsmartApp, and Proximity Check - require explicit activation via dedicated commands. This allows phased migration without replacing existing reader hardware or middleware.
