SDI011 REFERENCE MANUAL 19
3.6. Applications
3.6.1. General
SDI011 is a transparent reader designed to interface a personal computer host supporting
PC/SC interface with 13.56MHz user tokens like public transport cards, contactless banking
cards, electronic identification documents – e.g. e-passports, e-ID cards, driving licenses etc.
Those user tokens can have several form factors like credit cards, key fobs, NFC mobile
phones or USB dongles like SCT3511 that SCM Microsystems markets.

SDI011 itself handles the communication protocol but not the application related to the token.
The application-specific logic has to be implemented by software developers on the host.
3.6.2. Applications provided by SCM Microsystems
SCM Microsystems does not provide payment or transport applications.
SCM Microsystems provides a few applications for development and evaluation purposes that
can function with SDI011. There are many tools provided; here are two of them:
The NFC forum tag reader/writer is a standalone application that enables the user to
read and write NFC forum compliant records into NFC forum compatible tags. It is an
easy to use tool to configure rapidly NFC forum tag demonstrations. Note: SDI011
supports NFC forum tag type 2 and 4, only.
Smart card commander version 1.1 provides NFC forum record parsing functionality
of NDEF records in XML format as well as scripting functionality which can be very
useful for developers to develop and debug their applications. This tool can be used
for both the contact and the contactless interfaces of SDI011.
