Test & measurement systems
From R&D to certification to production — cilab has you covered.
NFC and contactless test systems that take you from prototype debug to EMV® and NFC Forum certification to high-volume production — on one platform.
Built for the standards you certify against
Product family
The toolkit behind the coverage.

EMV®, NFC Forum, NFC-WLC and ISO 10373 test benches for certification, pre-compliance and R&D / debug.

ISO/IEC 7816 contact smart-card characterization and conformance.

Wafer and chip-module test with integrated NFC and ISO 7816 protocols for the production line.
One partner, every stage
From first prototype to the production line.
cilab builds the test equipment for the entire contactless and contact journey — and it's the same calibrated measurement at every step, so your results correlate from R&D to certification to the production floor.
Develop
R&D & debug
Bring up and debug your design with a built-in oscilloscope, deep protocol decode and absolute analog measurement — and recover the full contactless protocol with no sniffer antenna. See exactly what your device does on the RF field, and why.

Characterization & conformance
Run EMV®, NFC Forum (CR15), NFC-WLC and ISO 10373 benches from one application, with absolute margin-to-limits and real receiver sensitivity — pre-compliance through full conformance, on an ISO/IEC 17025-calibrated instrument.
Standards & certification →Produce
Mass production
Take it to the line. Wafer and chip-module test with integrated NFC and ISO 7816 protocols, built for the throughput and repeatability the production floor demands.

Why cilab
Breadth that doesn't cost you depth.
Covering the whole journey only matters if the measurement is right at every step. From the flagship ci230 to contact and production test, the reference antennas and the automation, every part is built and calibrated by the same specialists.
No sniffer antenna
The ci230 recovers the full contactless protocol from its own test antenna — no spy or pickup probe loading the RF field, and no second calibration chain.
Absolute analog, not pass/fail
Across every contactless standard the ci230 reports absolute analog with true margin-to-limits and real receiver sensitivity — the depth R&D and certification actually need.
Contactless and contact
One supplier for both sides of the smart card: the ci230 for NFC / contactless RF, and the ci220 for high-speed ISO 7816 contact characterization and conformance.
All the way to the line
The same protocol expertise in production — the ci200 brings integrated NFC and ISO 7816 test to wafer and chip-module manufacturing.
Reference antennas, in-house
We design, build and calibrate the ISO 10373-6 reference PCD/PICC antennas ourselves under ISO/IEC 17025 — one source, fast recalibration turnaround.
Re-use your automation
Drive the robots you already own — Denso, Stäubli, Dobot — through one unified command set, so moving to a cilab bench needs no new automation.
At the core: the ci230
Run every standard from one screen — then debug what others can't measure.
EMV®, NFC Forum, NFC-WLC and ISO 10373 test benches live in a single application — with deep debug built in: Shmoo / 3D RF-field plots, live waveform and load-modulation display, absolute receiver-sensitivity and stop-on-fail capture.
