3.2.2 Re-sending Protocol
Reader/Writer supports the re-sending procedure in Controller interface. Re-sending
handling is triggered or required in the two cases below :
1. NACK packet is returned.
2. Neither ACK nor NACK response comes. (time out)
Controller should re-send the same packet within 5ms after receiving NACK or
detecting time out.
3.2.3 ACK / NACK Packet
ACK / NACK packet format is as follows :
ACK : LEN = 00h & LCS = ffh without Packet Data part and DCS
NACK : LEN = ffh & LCS = 00h without Packet Data part and DCS
3.2.4 Mutual Authentication
Mutual Authentication is a process that is performed between Controller and
Reader/Writer to authenticate each other mutually in order to avoid the fraud usage.
FeliCa : Reader/Writer
RC-S441,445 Users Manual

• Operating Distance : 100mm (Card : RC-S832)
- The Reader/Writer is adjusted by the combination of the RF/Control board
and the antenna board, both of which shall have the same serial number labels
to maximize the operating distance, and therefore, the operating distance
cannot be assured by the different combination of the boards.
- The antenna board and the RF/Control board shall be placed more than
30mm apart to prevent decrease of the operating distance more than 10mm,
i.e. to obtain more than 90mm operating distance. In case of adjusting the
variable capacitor on the RF/Control board to maximize the output level, the
minimum distance between the boards is improved to 15mm . (see Fig. 3)
- In the effective operating scope of the antenna, there shall be nothing that
generates electric or magnetic noise. Neither shall there be an electric or
magnetic shield or reflection.
- Emission from another Reader/Writer affects the operating distance. In
operating plural Reader/Writers simultaneously, it is desirable for antenna
boards to be separated more than 70cm each other in order to keep the
100mm operating distance. However, Reader/Writers can be operated under
less than 70cm separation each other with no problem except for decrease of
the operating distance.

Common pins are assigned for RS-232C and CMOS logic level. CMOS logic
level can be available instead of RS232C for RC-S445C by mounting 2 resistors
R46-47 and removing 2 resistors R52-53 which are located near the right, lower
corner of the RF/Control board as shown in Fig.5.

• Operating Distance : 40mm (Card : RC-S832)
- The Reader/Writer is adjusted by the combination of the RF/Control board
and the antenna board, both of which shall have the same serial number labels
to maximize the operating distance, and therefore, the operating distance
cannot be assured by the different combination of the boards.
- The antenna board and the RF/Control board shall be placed more than
30mm apart.
- In the effective operating scope of the antenna, there shall be nothing that
generates electric or magnetic noise. Neither shall there be an electric or
magnetic shield or reflection. Type E antenna is affected by conductive
material more easily than other antenna types because a ferrite block is not
attached on the antenna board.
- Emission from another Reader/Writer affects the operating distance. In
operating plural Reader/Writers simultaneously, it is desirable for antenna
boards to be separated more than 50cm each other in order to keep the
40mm operating distance. However, Reader/Writers can be operated under
less than 50cm separation each other with no problem except for decrease of
the operating distance.
• Interface Connector : Methode 1100-12-110-02 (right angle)
The interface connector is a 10-pin connector located at the right edge of the
RF/Control board which is shown in the schematic drawing of Fig.7. The pitch of
connector pins is 2.54mm. The most upper connector pin is No. 1. Pin
assignment of the connector is shown in Fig. 4 and Table 5.
• External Interface
