Application Specific Microcontrollers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against current NXP documentation to confirm package type and capacitance specifications. Confirm availability status as distribution channels may list this component as obsolete or end-of-life. Ensure compatibility with existing reader infrastructure before procurement.

Application Specific Microcontrollers Selection Notes

Select this model for applications requiring high security (EAL5+) and flexible multi-application structures. The 70 pF input capacitance variant is optimal for compact card designs. Consider backward compatibility requirements if migrating from older DESFire generations.

Application Specific Microcontrollers Part Context

This part belongs to the MF3D(H)x2 series, representing the third generation of MIFARE DESFire products. It succeeds the DESFire EV1 and D40 models, offering enhanced security features like Transaction MAC and unlimited application support while maintaining backward compatibility with previous standards.

Application Specific Microcontrollers Replacement Considerations

Functionally compatible with MF3D4200DA4/01 for standard 17 pF designs. For direct replacement in high-capacitance applications, verify equivalent parts within the MF3DHx2 family. Consult NXP for current lifecycle status and alternative sourcing options.
