Provides access to NFC-A (ISO 14443-3A) properties and I/O operations on a Tag.

Acquire a NfcA object using get.

The primary NFC-A I/O operation is transceive. Applications must implement their own protocol stack on top of transceive.

Note: Methods that perform I/O operations require the NFC.NFC permission.

Get an instance of NfcA for the given tag.

Returns null if NfcA was not enumerated in Tag.getTechList. This indicates the tag does not support NFC-A.

Does not cause any RF activity and does not block.

Params:
  • tag – an NFC-A compatible tag
Returns:NFC-A object

Return the ATQA/SENS_RES bytes from tag discovery.

Returns:SAK bytes

Send raw NFC-A commands to the tag and receive the response.

Applications must not append the EoD (CRC) to the payload, it will be automatically calculated.

Applications must only send commands that are complete bytes, for example a SENS_REQ is not possible (these are used to manage tag polling and initialization).

Use getMaxTransceiveLength to retrieve the maximum number of bytes that can be sent with transceive.

This is an I/O operation and will block until complete. It must not be called from the main application thread. A blocked call will be canceled with IOException if BasicTagTechnology.close is called from another thread.

Requires the NFC.NFC permission.

Params:
  • data – bytes to send
Throws:
  • TagLostException – if the tag leaves the field
  • IOException – if there is an I/O failure, or this operation is canceled
Returns:bytes received in response

Set the transceive timeout in milliseconds.

The timeout only applies to transceive on this object, and is reset to a default value when BasicTagTechnology.close is called.

Setting a longer timeout may be useful when performing transactions that require a long processing time on the tag such as key generation.

Requires the NFC.NFC permission.
