NFC tags are compact wireless devices using NFC technology for short-range (up to 10cm) data exchange. Passive by design, they draw power from nearby NFC-enabled devices like smartphones when tapped, using an embedded antenna and chip to store/transmit info.Capable of storing URLs, contact details, or commands, they enable instant interactions: tap to pay at terminals, share files between phones, or trigger actions like opening a website or connecting to Wi-Fi. Popular for their simplicity and low cost, these tags enhance everyday tech with seamless, touch-based solutions in payments, marketing,access control, information sharing and smart home setups.
The standard NFC communication frequency is 13.56MHz, the data transmission distance is generally within 10cm, high security, and the protocols followed are ISO14443A, ISO14443B and ISO15693.
