hi,Can anybody tell me what is difference between SmartMX chip and NFC IC?What is the difference between ISO14443A and ISO14443B?And what about ISO/IEC 18092:2004 ISO/IEC 21481 how these three are related?Thanks

SmartMX vs NFC IC:

SmartMX is a microcontroller, especially designed for the smart card industry. It means there could be crypto co-processors, specific interfaces/UARTs, measures against side attacks.

Near Field Communication is a technology that works purely contactless (14443A) and where the device can be active (a smart card is passive). NFC technology can be used in conjunction with a SmartMX.

ISO14443A vs B:

I think the modulation technique and some things in the low level protocol make the difference.
