Analog Devices / Maxim Integrated MAX66301 Evaluation Kit

Analog Devices MAX66301 Evaluation Kit comprises a MAX66301 evaluation kit (EV kit) and a MAX66250 tag. The MAX66301 kit combines an RFID reader at 13.56MHz and an SHA-3 secure authenticator coprocessor. The RFID reader covers the ISO 15693 standard, and the authenticator coprocessor is based on the FIPS202-compliant standard. The MAX66250 tag is a solution covering the ISO 15693 standard and combines FIPS202- compliant Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA-3) challenge and response authentication with secured EEPROM. By pairing the Analog Devices MAX66301 with the MAX66250 into an EV system, the kit software can operate to show a secure challenge and response authentication and other part-specific functionality.
