JustID USB Dongle Reader: 13.56 MHz NFC RFID Smart Card UID Reader – Keyboard Emulator

It works with all NFC cards compliant with ISO 14443 A/B and ISO 15693. The JID reader supports HID (Human Interface Device) and CDC ACM (USB communications device class—Virtual COM Port) interfaces, meaning you can use it without installed software or drivers. It is an accurate plug-and-play NFC reader. JustID NFC reader is designed as an entry-level device, but it can be upgraded (via firmware upgrade) with more advanced features. In HID mode, the primary function of this NFC device is to read an NFC card’s UID (card serial number) and enter the data into the selected text field (e.g., an Excel Sheet, login screen) via the built-in keyboard emulation feature. In CDC ACM usage, the card UID (card serial number) is an asynchronous transmitter to the Virtual COM Port on any terminal or software that uses a COM Port.

• JustID (JID) is an NFC reader using 13.56 MHz contactless (RFID) HF technology.
• The JID NFC reader is specially designed to provide one of the most commonly used functions of an NFC reader: reading the NFC card’s serial number (UID) only.

In addition to USB, the JustID NFC reader supports a TTL UART interface. Card UID is asynchronously transmitted via this option, as in CDC ACM, but in this case from a real UART port. Use it to connect to embedded devices such as microcontrollers, single-board computers (Raspberry Pi, Arduino, BeagleBone, etc.), or other devices with a UART TTL interface. All models are available for purchase with customized/personalized labels or as OEM PCBs.

Who is it for? The JustID RFID/NFC Reader is a device for reading serial numbers (UIDs) from NFC cards. Regardless of age or skill set, anyone connecting the JID reader to a host platform, such as a PC, tablet, or mobile phone, can read NFC cards or tags. The most common use cases for the JustID reader include inventory/asset management, login, attendance tracking, loyalty programs, and library management.

The JID NFC reader offers the following features:

• NFC Reader Technology: 13.56MHz contactless (RFID) HF technology
• Interface Support:
  – HID (Human Interface Device): Supports HID interface for seamless integration with various systems.
  – CDC ACM (USB communications device class – Virtual COM Port): Provides CDC ACM interface for easy communication and data transfer.
• Supported Standards:
  – ISOO14443 A/B: Compatible with ISOO14443 A/B standard cards/tags.
  – ISO15693: Supports ISO15693 standard cards/tags.
• UID Reading Function: Specifically designed to read the serial number (UID) of supported ISO14443 A/B and ISO15693 standard cards/tags.

Variations

• Lite (ISO14443 A/B UID reading): This NFC RFID UID Reader /keyboard emulator supports HID (Human Interface Device) and CDC ACM (USB communications device class—Virtual COM Port) interfaces, ISO/IEC 14443 A/B cards, and tag UID reading.
• Standard (+ ISO15693 UID reading): The JustID Standard variation retains all the JustID Lite features and supports ISO/IEC 15693. This enables compatibility with popular card types like ICODE DNA, ICODE SLIX (SLIX, SLIX-S, SLIX-L, SLIX 2), and ICODE ILT (ILT, ILT-M). It also empowers your device to work flawlessly with I-Code SLI, Tag-it HF-I Plus, TI-RFid HF-I Pro, and many other cards and tags.
• Plus (+ DES/AES authentication enabled): In addition to the inherited features from the Lite and Standard variations, the JustID Plus reader unlocks advanced security features, including DES/AES authentication for DESFire, MIFARE Plus, and NTAG 424 DNA tags, taking this NFC reader/keyboard emulator to the highest level of functionality and protection.

Hardware: The JustID NFC Reader’s hardware is based on the PN7462, one of NXP’s latest NFC controllers. The reader operates at 13.56 MHz and supports ISO14443 A/B and ISO15693 standards for HF contactless communication and data transmission.

JID NFC reader supports working with all ISO14443 and ISO15693 NFC cards/tags, including (but not limited to):

• MIFARE Mini®,
• MIFARE Classic® (1K, 4K, EV1),
• MIFARE Ultralight®,
• MIFARE Ultralight C®,
• MIFARE Plus® (2K, 4K, S, X, EV1),
• MIFARE DESFire® (Light, 2K, 4K, 8K, EV1, EV2),
• NXP NTAG® 21x (210, 213, 215, 216, Tag Tamper),
• NXP NTAG® 4xx DNA (413, 424),
• NXP JCOP® Java Card (J3A040, J3A081, J3H145, JC30M48CR).
• ICODE DNA
• ICODE SLIX (SLIX, SLIX-S, SLIX-L, SLIX 2)
• ICODE ILT (ILT, ILT-M)

This tool also supports all other tags listed above. Although the list of supported technologies is extensive, our development team constantly works on product improvements and upgrades, keeping up with global trends in this technology.

This RFID Model is also available as an OEM NFC Module. The OEM board is available in three versions:

• USB – with standard USB A-type connector
• UART TTL – with the 5-pin male header connector
• RS-232 – via an adapter with a DB9 connector.

Firmware: JustID NFC reader’s firmware comes in four versions users can choose from, starting from the most basic functionality to the most advanced:

• JustID Lite: Reading ISO14443 A/B UID only
• JustID Standard: Reading ISO14443 A/B and ISO15693 UID
• JustID Plus*: Enables DES/AES authentication for DESFire, MIFARE Plus, and NTAG 424 DNA tags
• JustID VAS**: Enables reading NFC passes from iOS phones using Apple VAS (Apple Value Added Services)

Firmware can be upgraded at any time by entering the license number for the purchased firmware. For instance, you can purchase a device with JustID Lite firmware and upgrade it to JustID VAS at any time by purchasing an additional firmware license.
