ST25R3911B and mifare classic supporting

[wan512]

I've bought one X-NUCLEO-NFC05A1 board, all ST25R3911B_Discovery_GUI functions work fine.

But i cannot find the mifare classic function on the GUI. Is there any update for this?  Where can i find the mifare classic supporting firmware and its source code?

BTW. the 

X-NUCLEO-NFC05A1 have Arduino compatible pins, is there any official RFHal OO porting for mbed platform? If so, many MCUs can work with ST25R3911B easier, not only F4, L4 family.

Have you checked in DISCO project. I found mifare commands in mifare_ul...

thanks,i'll check for that.

commands in mifare_ul.c are probably related to mifare ultra light but not mifare classic.

from the code (in file dispatcher.c)

#ifdef HAS_MCC

#include "mcc.h"

#include "mcc_raw_request.h"

#endif /* HAS_MCC */

and then:

#ifdef HAS_MCC

static ReturnCode processMifare(const uint8_t *rxData, uint16_t rxSize, uint8_t *txData, uint16_t *txSize);

#endif

and again:

#ifdef HAS_MCC

    else if ((protocol & 0xf0) == 0xe0)

    { /* mifare commands */

      err = mccDeinitialise(0);

    }

#endif​ 

and so on ...

so basically what is needed to support mifare classic is finding these two files (mcc.h and mcc_raw_request.h) or implement your own.

I hope someone from ST answers this question here.

Above comment is related to SW dev package for ST25R3911B-DISCO board.

Hi,

yes, mifare_ul.c,h relates to Mifare Ultralight/T2T (non-crypto) tags.

ST25R3911B can send and receive all the frames required for Mifare Classic (with crypto1 cipher) based communication.

Unfortunately we cannot provide you sources for doing this.

Hi,

So, let me put it this way, if there is an agreement between someone (like me) and NXP, that means I have access to the documents from NXP which are supposed to be enough for implementing the Mifare classic support. On the other hand ST has this SDK and apparently these missing files exist somewhere, but are removed from SDK for some reasons. So, is it not possible that customers who have signed NDA document with NXP get this files from ST?

Hi,

I would like to support you here but I cannot do so at the moment due to legal reasons. Even if you prove that you have an NDA with NXP.

I am sorry!

So many issues make this embedded programing world even more exciting 🙂 Thank you for your reply.
