The
NFC
Forum, a non-profit industry association dedicated to advancing near field
communication technology, has begun work on a specification for a host
controller interface (HCI) between contactless controllers and application
processors in devices.
The HCI will be a logical interface, allowing an NFC front end to communicate
directly with an application processor and multiple secure elements in devices
such as mobile handsets, PDAs and PC peripherals, enabling faster integration of
NFC functionality.
Planned for release in 2008, the HCI will cover all NFC operational modes,
including reader/writer, peer-to-peer and card emulation.
It may be implemented over relevant physical interfaces, including Serial
Peripheral Interface Bus, Inter-Integrated Circuit, Universal Asynchronous
Receiver/Transmitter, Universal Serial Bus and others.
The interface between the NFC controller and the Universal Integrated Circuit
Card is being specified by the
European
Telecommunications Standards Institute and is outside the scope of the
Forum's specification work.
