General Description
The MAX66301-25x evaluation system (EV system)
comprises a MAX66301 evaluation kit (EV kit) and a
MAX66250 tag. The MAX66301 EV kit combines an RFID
reader for contactless communication at 13.56MHz and
a SHA-3 secure authenticator coprocessor. The RFID
reader covers the ISO 15693 standard and the authen-
ticator coprocessor is based on the FIPS202-compliant
standard. The MAX66250 tag operates as 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 MAX66301 with the MAX66250 into an EV
system, the EV kit software can operate to show a secure
challenge and response authentication and other part
specific functionality.
