Mifare Plus SL0 and SL3 can tell differences via ATS(ISO14443-4). Before ATS, they have the same ATQA and
SAK(ISO14443-3). SL032 judges card type only via ISO14443-3 layer for the compatibility.

5. DIFFERENCES FROM PREVIOUS VERSION
Although we make efforts on the compatibility between the new SL032 V3.1and the
old SL032, there are still some differences you need to know.
1. New SL032 has the auto-detection function which can close automatically when
there is a DESFire or MifarePlus L0/L2/L3 card coming into the detection range.
By the way, we also offer you the Turn On/Off Auto-detection command.
2. New SL032 supports nearly all cards of NXP Mifare series now and we rebuilt the
card type characters.(Details see to Command Select Mifare Card Description)
3. New SL032 also has PIN OUT function indicating tag auto-detection status like
SL025 and SL031 now.
4. New SL032 has the 3des authentication and update key function for ulralight c.

Product Information
Product Name:
MIFARE MODULE
Model No.:
SL032_V3.1
RFID:
13.56MHz
Antenna Type:
Integrated Antenna
Product Name:
Host device
Model No.:
T032
Manufacturer:
BEIJING STRONGLINK TECHNOLOGY CO,. LTD.
Host Information
The regulated power supply of the host is as below:
T032 is a host device of SL032_V3.1 for command sets testing.
Its power supply is obtained by 12V AC-DC adapter, and converting 12V to 5V through DC to DC
LM2575 and 5V to 3.3V through LDO AMS1117, to power stable 3.3V to MCU and the SL032_V3.1
module.

Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Interference Statement
The limited modular transmitter is only FCC authorized for the specific rule part (FCC Part15.225)
listed on the grant, and that the host product manufacturer is responsible for compliance to any other
FCC rules that apply to the host not covered by the modular transmitter grant of certification.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.
For additional hosts other than the specific host originally granted with a limited module, a Class II
permissive change is required on the module grant to register the additional host as a specific host
also approved with the module.
OEM/Host integrator is responsible for complying with the instructions and requirements for each
transmitter they choose to integrate into a host product.
RF exposure warning
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment.
This product may not be collocated or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
This equipment must be installed and operated in accordance with provided instructions and the
antenna(s) used for this transmitter must be installed to provide a separation distance from all persons
and must not be collocated or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
Additional text needed for the host product manufacturer to provide to end users in their end-product
manuals.
Page 19
OEM Integration Instructions：
This device is intended only for OEM integrators under the following conditions:
The module can be used to installation in other host. The antenna must be installed such that 20 cm is
maintained between the antenna and users, and the transmitter module may not be co-located with
any other transmit or antenna. The module shall be only used with the integral antenna(s) that has
been originally tested and certified with this module. As long as 3 conditions above are met, further
transmitter test will not be required. However, the OEM integrator is still responsible for testing their
end-product for any additional compliance requirement with this module installed (for example, digital
device emission, PC peripheral requirements, etc.)
IMPORTANT NOTE：
In the event that these conditions cannot be met (for example certain laptop configuration or
co-location with another transmitter), then the FCC authorization for this module in combination with
the host equipment is no longer considered valid and the FCC ID of the module cannot be used on the
final product. In these and circumstance, the OEM integrator will be responsible for re-evaluating. The
end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC authorization. The final end
product must be labeled in a visible area with the following:
“Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: 2ADI8-SL032 or Contains FCC ID: 2ADI8-SL032”.
