EMVCo L1 Contactless Test Solutions

Test Solutions According to EMVCo L1 Contactless:

  • Analog and digital EMVCo testing for
    • PICC (Proximity Integrated Circuit Card, payment side) like cards, smartphones and wearabls as well as for
    • PCD (Proximity Coupling Device, acceptance side) like POS terminals, mPOS or chipset modules
  • Speeds up the EMVCo L1 type approval for cards, terminals, and devices
  • Comprehensive test plan management
  • Test case results during test execution
  • PICC
  • PCD

Underlining the importance of compliance, our contactless payment test solutions address the widespread use of NFC technology in cards, smartphones, and wearables. They are designed to meet the demand for fast and secure payment transactions.

COMPRION provides a comprehensive EMVCo PICC L1 test solution for contactless payment cards and devices, covering both digital (protocol layer) and analog (physical layer) requirements. The solution is fully qualified for the latest EMVCo 3.2a specification. The UT³ Platform, along with the test plan management software Device Test Center, and complementary test equipment ensures compliance with stringent EMV® standards.

The PICC Analog conformance solution based on the UT³ Platform incorporates the use of a Kawasaki industrial robot in a safety cell for fast and precise positioning during automated testing. For pre-conformance testing, COMPRION offers a cost-effective solution to prepare devices for certification, using CL Verify A hardware and the Dobot MG400 robot for analog tests.

In addition to EMVCo PICC testing, our platform supports a range of standards, including EMVCo PCD, NFC Forum, and GCF/PTCRB certification, enabling manufacturers and test labs to test various applications with a single setup.

Device Test Center

COMPRION's test plan management software simplifies testing with powerful tools: configure and manage device parameters effortlessly, generate automated test plans in one click, and customize test cases to meet your specific requirements. Efficiently create, duplicate, delete, export, or import extensive test plans and results. View verdicts per test case, jump to detailed results, and monitor recorded data across layers for precise troubleshooting.

 


Troubleshooting with Analog Scope

The Analog Scope function is an additional feature for analyzing and troubleshooting signaling errors. It records and visualizes analog data, providing quick measurements of waveform characteristics with a single mouse click. Additionally, the Analog Scope Viewer allows evaluation of measurement results, including time intervals, to aid troubleshooting and assess IUT performance. Independent of test case execution, it can be used for discrete monitoring sessions. With predefined quick measurements, you gain valuable information on waveform characteristics and receive detailed comments explaining test failures.


Propietary antennas

Our EMVCo Test Solutions feature sophisticated antennas developed in-house to meet the latest EMVCo requirements. Whether paired with the CL Verify A or UT³ Platform, these antennas enable accurate testing of parameters such as IQ modulation and power transfer. By providing hardware, software, and antennas in a unified package, we ensure seamless testing and efficient monitoring.
