The MIFARE Ultralight EV1 is succeeding the MIFARE Ultralight ticketing IC and is fully functional backward compatible. It serves as a ticketing counterpart to contactless card families such as MIFARE DESFire ® or MIFARE Plus ®. The MF0ULx1 serves as a replacement for conventional ticketing solutions such as paper tickets, magnetic stripe tickets or coins. The target applications include single trip or limited use tickets in public transport networks, loyalty cards or day passes for events. The MF0ULx1 is designed to work in an ISO/IEC 14443 Type-A compliant environment.
NXP ® Semiconductors developed the MIFARE Ultralight EV1 MF0ULx1 for use in a contactless smart ticket, smart card, or token in combination with a Proximity Coupling Device (PCD).
