Frame Format
Data transmitted by the PCD or PICC is sent as frames. The frame consists of the start of frame (SOF), several bytes
of information, and the end of frame (EOF). The SOF and EOF requirements are shown in Figure 47.

Reader Data Transmission
The unmodulated 13.56 MHz carrier signal amplitude which is transmitted when the reader is idle is defined as logical
“1”, while the modulated signal level is defined as logical “0”. A frame transmitted by the reader consists of SOF,
several bytes of data, a 2 byte CRC_B, and the EOF.
