The NTAG 224 white label features a custom aluminum-etched antenna on coated paper substrate in a compact Dia 25 mm self-adhesive format. The antenna impedance is precisely tuned to 13.56 MHz (ISO/IEC 14443A) for optimal RF power transfer. With 208 bytes of user memory and AES-128 three-pass mutual authentication replacing the 32-bit password of NTAG 223, it delivers enterprise-grade data protection. SUN (Secure Unique NFC) generates a per-tap unique cryptographically signed message, making cloning impossible. The optional StatusDetect variant adds dual-mode (conductive/capacitive) tamper detection and a capacitive sensing interface for moisture, fill level, or pressure monitoring. A scratch-resistant top coating and temperature/humidity tolerant adhesive ensure reliable communication from −20°C to 60°C.

Key Advantages vs NTAG 223

• Larger User Memory 208 bytes vs 144 bytes (+44%) — enables richer NDEF records and more product data on-tag

• Stronger Security AES-128 mutual authentication vs 32-bit password — enterprise-grade access protection

• Cloning-Proof SUN (Secure Unique NFC) generates cryptographically unique message per tap; 48-byte ECC originality signature

• Optional StatusDetect Dual-mode conductive/capacitive tamper detection + capacitive sensing for moisture/fill/pressure monitoring

• Backward Compatible Same mechanical footprint, same NFC Type 2 Tag protocol as NTAG 223 — easy upgrade path
