Sony NFC Headphones NFC radiation levels.

 

Hello,

 

On Sony bluetooth headphones (WH-1000XM3) when audio cable is connected to the headphone’s jack, indeed Bluetooth radio is turned off.  

 

However I noticed NFC on the headphones still works even when the cable is connected.

My questions is how many, if any, NFC wireless EMF messages are transmitted over period of time ? I want to know this because I want to calculate the amount of EMF transmission that occurs due to NFC.

 

The WH-1000XM3 headphones ’ NFC chip is detected as Sony FeliCa RCS967 Lite-S Mode.

I want to know if the chips acts passively as a smart card would, without power?. Or does the chip actively send discovery messages in RF/EMF waves ? 

How long after the headphone is turned on  will the special  “FeliCa RCS967 Lite-S Mode” NFC ”power saving mode” be switched on ?

headphone NFC doesn't send order, just receive. As a consequence it's passive

Hi

 

I agree with @Sonyvores, it's a passive chip.
