PN532 and PicoPass (ISO14443B) card

[kleberlopes]

Hello, I'm trying to use the PN532 together with a PicoPass card (ISO 14443B), but I can not.

The PN532 datasheet reports that it can  work with ISO14443B cards, but is not working. Approach the card and the reader does not recognize.

I want to read only the ID, no need to read or write in memory.

I'm using PN532 with the firmware version 1.6.

I set the SAM to "Normal Mode"

               0xD4 0x14 0x01 0x01 0xFF

I sent the command "RFConfiguration" with 0x0C subclause ("Analog settings for the type B").
 
                0xD4 0x32 0x17 0x85 0x0c 0xFF

I tried to use the "InListPassiveTarget" but did not work:

                0xD4 0x4A 0x01 0x03 0x00

I tried to use "InAutoPoll" command, but did not work. In this case it recognizes Mifare (ISO14443A) cards, but not PicoPass (ISO14443B):

               0xD4 0x60 0x01 0x03 0x00 0x20 0x23

What can I do to be able to read the card ID with ISO14443B?

Hi ,

Please refer to the following example on how to work with ISO14443B card.

Hello,

I also have the same issue, using the PN7462.

Did anybody got this working?

None of the demo programs work (NFC Library v05.16.00).

Hello,

I have the same problem.

Did anybody succeeded in getting ISO14443B card information with PN532 ?

Can NXP support state if it is supported (as indicated in the datasheet) or not ?
