The M1 card is also commonly known as the S50 or S70 card, and is a card we commonly use. The M1 card has a wide range of applications, currently including access cards, parking cards, medical cards, membership cards, and so on.

The M1 card is a multifunctional card that uses a contactless method for reader exchange and information input. The full name of the M1 card is NXP Mifare1, a chip produced by NXP, a subsidiary of Philips. Currently, the commonly used chips for making M1 cards are the S50 and S70 chips.

Advantages of M cards:

The M1 card, like the contactless IC card, is also an IC card made of PVC material by packaging an antenna and IC technology. The M1 card has the advantage of being both readable and writable, but it also has drawbacks: it is somewhat expensive, has a short sensing range, and is suitable for non-quota consumption systems, parking lot systems, access control and attendance systems, and more.


1. User convenience of the M1 card

MIFARE is optimized for user convenience. For example, high-speed data transmission allows complete ticket transactions to be processed in less than 100 ms. Therefore, users do not have to linger at the reader antenna, resulting in a high pass rate and reducing bus boarding time. During transactions, the MIFARE card can remain in the wallet, and even coins in the wallet remain unaffected.

2. M1 card security
Mutual random and responsive authentication, data encryption, and message identification checks prevent various hacking and tampering, making it more suitable for ticketing applications. The immutable serial number ensures the uniqueness of each card.

3、Multi-app functionality of the M1 card

MIFARE offers true multi-application capabilities comparable to CPU cards. Each zone has two different keys supporting systems using hierarchical keys.
