Cilab adds support for testing EMV contactless payments acceptance on NFC devices

The Cilab ci230 high speed test bench now includes support for testing NFC device compliance with EMVCo’s new reduced range testing process for contactless payments acceptance on standard NFC devices.

The Softpos test suite is able to validate interoperability and payment acceptance for TapToMobile, Tap on Phone, Tap on Mobile, Tap to Phone and Tap to Pay systems, Cilab says.

The test bench consists of Cilab’s ci230 all-in-one box (amplifier, signal generator, real-time scope), the EMVCo certified antenna set and finally a robot with mechanics. The operator can activate a low range option to run the analog test suite to check the acceptance of the seller’s device under test (DUT) to this specification.
