Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What NFC protocol do the FeliCa Lite-S RC-S966 cards support?
A: These cards comply with the ISO18092 standard and are classified as NFC Forum Type 3 cards. They operate at 13.56 MHz and are compatible with readers and devices that support the FeliCa protocol.
Q: How many times can I write data to these NFC cards?
A: Each card supports up to 100,000 write cycles, making them highly durable and suitable for long-term, high-frequency use in access control, automation, or development projects.
Q: Are these cards compatible with standard NFC-enabled smartphones?
A: These cards use the FeliCa Lite-S (NFC Type 3) protocol. Compatibility with smartphones depends on the device's NFC chipset. Many Android devices with NFC support Type 3 tags, while support on other platforms may vary. Always verify your reader/device supports ISO18092 / Type 3 before purchasing.
Q: What is the memory capacity of each RC-S966 NFC card?
A: Each card provides 252 bytes of user memory, organized into data blocks accessible via the FeliCa command set for both authenticated and non-authenticated read/write operations.
Q: What size are these NFC cards?
A: The cards measure 85 × 54 mm with a thickness of 0.84 mm — the same dimensions as a standard credit or ID card — making them ideal for use in card wallets, badge holders, and standard card readers.
