DeviceFidelity has collaborated with ams to use its unique RF technology in its CredenSE 2.10 near field communication (NFC) microSD card for secure, certified NFC transmissions between any mobile phone and contactless payment terminals from Visa and MasterCard.
Leveraging the AS3922 from ams, an integrated NFC front end with Active Boost technology, CredenSE achieves a typical read range of 4cm in a mobile phone’s microSD slot.

The DeviceFidelity CredenSE 2.10 can be used to transform any mobile device with a microSD card slot into a contactless payment device without any need for device specific external antenna or attachments.
The certified solution has been achieved primarily through the use of the Active Boost capability in the AS3922, which allows for tag-to-reader communication at a coupling factor 100 times higher than is possible with conventional passive tag designs.
ams senior product marketing manager Mark Dickson said DeviceFidelity is leading the way in the enablement of NFC microSD payments on mobile phones globally, so ams is delighted that it selected the AS3922, which offers superior RF performance in the space-constrained microSD form facto.
