Application Specific Microcontrollers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix DA6/01J against current NXP documentation to confirm package type and capacitance specifications. Check for end-of-life status or alternative sourcing options as availability may vary. 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 support. The 17 pF capacitance suits standard card designs, while the MOB6 package offers a compact form factor. Consider the 4 kbit capacity against application data requirements and ensure backend systems support DESFire EV2 commands.

Application Specific Microcontrollers Part Context

This component 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 Virtual Card Architecture while maintaining backward compatibility with previous generations.

Application Specific Microcontrollers Replacement Considerations

Functionally compatible replacements within the same family include MF3D2200DA6/01J (2 kbit) and MF3D8200DA6/01J (8 kbit), provided memory capacity meets requirements. For higher security needs, consider the MIFARE DESFire EV3 series.
