NAME

nfc-list - list NFC targets

SYNOPSIS

nfc-list [ options ]

DESCRIPTION

nfc-list is a utility for listing any available tags like ISO14443-A, FeliCa, Jewel or ISO14443-B (according to the device capabilities). It may detect several tags at once thanks to a mechanism called anti-collision but all types of tags don't support anti-collision and there is some physical limitation of the number of tags the reader can discover.

This tool displays all available information at selection time.

OPTIONS

-v
Tells nfc-list to be verbose and display detailed information about the targets shown. This includes SAK decoding and fingerprinting is available.
-t X
Polls only for types according to bitfield value of X: 1: ISO14443A 2: Felica (212 kbps) 4: Felica (424 kbps) 8: ISO14443B 16: ISO14443B' 32: ISO14443B-2 ST SRx 64: ISO14443B-2 ASK CTx 128: Jewel

So 255 (default) polls for all types.

Note that if 16, 32 or 64 then 8 is selected too.

EXAMPLE

For an ISO/IEC 14443-A tag (i.e.Mifare DESFire):

ATQA (SENS_RES): 03 44 UID (NFCID1): 04 45 35 01 db 24 80 SAK (SEL_RES): 20 ATS (ATR): 75 77 81 02 80
