The CLASS 3150 is a tool dedicated for laboratory. It combines two products:

ISO 14443 Contactless smart cards analyser

The CLASS 3150 traps all exchanges between the PICC (type A or type B) and the reader, and thus is a perfect tool for protocol analysis. With a trace depth of several million events, you can get the modulation and the byte exchanges between the reader and the card. Dating and duration of each event are expressed in periods of the carrier or in nanoseconds (accuracy 20ns).

You can find and fix quickly any error in the protocol or the application using CLASScope software.

ISO 14443 Contactless smart cards simulation

Used to test terminal protocols and applications, the CLASS 3150 allows the simulation of type A or B contactless smart cards through a rich set of APIs. You can develop and test your application even without a smart card available. You can simulate a variety of configurations (collision, framing and timing modification,..) to test the terminal functionality.

Analyser and simulator can be used simultaneously.

As the other products in the CLASS family, the CLASS 3150 is an open system. TCP/IP communication offers high speed transfer of data between a host and the tool.

Applications can be developed in C language either on PC, or in embedded environment if real time is needed. Multiple applications can be embedded in the CLASS 3150.

CLASScope

CLASScope is a software package that allows very simple and user friendly visualisation and configuration of the whole set of information trapped by the CLASS 3150. The trace of each event (modulation, carrier frequency and character) is displayed graphically. Two cursors allow accurate timing measurements.
