NTAG210µ vs. ICODE 3

These two chips, the NTAG210µ and the ICODE 3 are from different NFC chip families. The NTAG210µ, manufactured by NXP belonging to the NTAG family, and the ICODE 3, manufactured by .

The NTAG210µ or NTAG210 micro was released by NXP to create the cheapest possible price point for an NFC chip. Having a small memory capacity and minimal features, it's designed primarily for short ID's, short web links or just for a UID.

However, despite it's limited memory and features, it still packs the same great ScanStrength performance of the rest of the NTAG range. Seritag regularly stock large tag quantities with the NTAG210µ chip as it's a great cost-effective way to add NFC to packaging and products.
