1. General description
The NTAG I2C is the first product of NXP’s NTAG family offering both contactless and
contact interfaces (see Figure 1). In addition to the passive NFC Forum compliant
contactless interface, the IC features an I2C contact interface, which can communicate
with a microcontroller if the NTAG I2C is powered from an external power supply. An
additional externally powered SRAM mapped into the memory allows a fast data transfer
between the RF and I2C interfaces and vice versa, without the write cycle limitations of the
EEPROM memory.
The NTAG I2C product features a configurable Field Detection Pin, which provides a
trigger to an external device depending on the activities at the RF interface.
The NTAG I2C product can also supply power to external (low power) devices (e.g., a
microcontroller) via the embedded energy harvesting circuitry.

8. Functional description
8.1 Block description
NTAG I2C ICs consist of (see details below): 2016 bytes of EEPROM memory, 64 Bytes of
SRAM, a RF interface, Digital Control Unit (DCU), Power Management Unit (PMU) and an
I²C interface. Energy and data are transferred via an antenna consisting of a coil with a
few turns, which is directly connected to NTAG I2C IC. No further external components are
necessary.
• RF interface:
– modulator/demodulator
– rectifier
– clock regenerator
– Power-On Reset (POR)
– voltage regulator
• Anticollision: multiple cards may be selected and managed in sequence
• Command interpreter: processes memory access commands supported by the NTAG
I
2C
• EEPROM interface
8.2 RF interface
The RF-interface is based on the ISO/IEC 14443 Type A standard.
During operation, the NFC device generates an RF field. The RF field must always be
present (with short pauses for data communication), as it is used for both communication
and as power supply for the tag.
For both directions of data communication, there is one start bit at the beginning of each
frame. Each byte is transmitted with an odd parity bit at the end. The LSB of the byte with
the lowest address of the selected block is transmitted first. The maximum length of an
NFC device to tag frame is 163 bits (16 data bytes + 2 CRC bytes = 16×9 + 2×9 + 1 start
bit). The maximum length of a fixed size tag to NFC device frame is 307 bits (32 data
bytes + 2 CRC bytes = 32 9 + 2 9 + 1 start bit). The FAST_READ command has a
variable frame length, which depends on the start and end address parameters. The
maximum frame length supported by the NFC device must be taken into account when
issuing this command.
For a multi-byte parameter, the least significant byte is always transmitted first. For
example, when reading from the memory using the READ command, byte 0 from the
addressed block is transmitted first, followed by bytes 1 to byte 3 out of this block. The
same sequence continues for the next block and all subsequent blocks.
8.2.1 Data integrity
The following mechanisms are implemented in the contactless communication link
between the NFC device and the NTAG I²C IC to ensure very reliable data transmission:
• 16 bits CRC per blockNT3H1101/NT3H1201 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.

NFC Forum type 2 Tag compliant IC with I2C interface
• Parity bits for each byte
• Bit count checking
• Bit coding to distinguish between “1”, “0” and “no information”
• Channel monitoring (protocol sequence and bit stream analysis)
The commands are initiated by the NFC device and controlled by the Digital Control Unit
of the NTAG I2C IC. The command response depends on the state of the IC, and for
memory operations, also on the access conditions valid for the corresponding page.
8.2.2 RF communication principle
The overall RF communication principle is summarized in Figure 4.
8.2.2.1 IDLE state
After a power-on reset (POR), the NTAG I2C switches to the IDLE state. It only exits this
state when a REQA or a WUPA command is received from the NFC device. Any other
data received while in this state is interpreted as an error, and the NTAG I2C remains in
the IDLE state.

NXP Semiconductors NT3H1101/NT3H1201
NFC Forum type 2 Tag compliant IC with I2C interface
After a correctly executed HLTA command e.g., out of the ACTIVE state, the default
waiting state changes from the IDLE state to the HALT state. This state can then only be
exited with a WUPA command.
8.2.2.2 READY 1 state
In the READY 1 state, the NFC device resolves the first part of the UID (3 bytes) using the
ANTICOLLISION or SELECT commands in cascade level 1. This state is correctly exited
after execution of the following command:
• SELECT command from cascade level 1: the NFC device switches the NTAG I2C into
READY2 state where the second part of the UID is resolved.
8.2.2.3 READY 2 state
In the READY 2 state, the NTAG I2C supports the NFC device in resolving the second part
of its UID (4 bytes) with the cascade level 2 ANTICOLLISION command. This state is
usually exited using the cascade level 2 SELECT command.
Remark: The response of the NTAG I2C to the cascade level 2 SELECT command is the
Select AcKnowledge (SAK) byte. In accordance with ISO/IEC 14443, this byte indicates if
the anticollision cascade procedure has finished. NTAG I2C is now uniquely selected and
only this device will communicate with the NFC device even when other contactless
devices are present in the NFC device field.
8.2.2.4 ACTIVE state
All memory operations are operated in the ACTIVE state.
The ACTIVE state is exited with the HLTA command and upon reception, the NTAG I2C
transits to the HALT state. Any other data received when the device is in this state is
interpreted as an error. Depending on its previous state, the NTAG I2C returns to either
the IDLE state or HALT state.
8.2.2.5 HALT state
HALT and IDLE states constitute the two wait states implemented in the NTAG I2C. An
already processed NTAG I2C can be set into the HALT state using the HLTA command. In
the anticollision phase, this state helps the NFC device distinguish between processed
tags and tags yet to be selected. The NTAG I2C can only exit this state upon execution of
the WUPA command. Any other data received when the device is in this state is
interpreted as an error, and NTAG I2C state remains unchanged.
8.3 Memory organization
The memory map is detailed in Figure 5 (1k memory) and Figure 6 (2k memory) from the
RF interface and in Figure 7 (1k memory) and Figure 8 (2k memory) from the I2C
interface. The SRAM memory is not mapped from the RF interface, because in the default
settings of the NTAG I2C the Pass-through mode is not enabled. Please refer to
Section 11 for examples of memory map from the RF interface with SRAM mapping.
The structure of manufacturing data, static lock bytes, capability container and user
memory pages (except of the user memory length) are compatible with other NTAG
products.NT3H1101/NT3H1201 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.

8.3.3 EEPROM
The EEPROM is a non volatile memory that stores the 7 byte UID, the memory lock
conditions, IC configuration information and the 1904 bytes User Data (888 byte User
Data in case of the NTAG I2C 1k version).
8.3.4 SRAM
For frequently changing data, a volatile memory of 64 bytes with unlimited endurance is
built in. The 64 bytes are mapped in a similar way as is done in the EEPROM, i.e., 64
bytes are seen as 16 pages of 4 bytes.
Remark: *The Byte 0 of Block 0 is always read as 04h. Writing to this byte modifies the I²C
address.

NXP Semiconductors NT3H1101/NT3H1201
NFC Forum type 2 Tag compliant IC with I2C interface
The SRAM is only available if the tag is powered via the VCC pin.
The SRAM is located at the end of the memory space and it is always directly accessible
by the I2C host (addresses F8h to FBh). An RF reader cannot access the SRAM memory
in normal mode (i.e., outside the Pass-through mode). The SRAM is only accessible by
the RF reader if the SRAM is mirrored onto the EEPROM memory space.
With Memory Mirror enabled (SRAM_MIRROR_ON_OFF=1 - see Section 11.2), the
SRAM can be mirrored in the User Memory (page 1 to page 119 - see Section 11.2) for
access from the RF side.
The Memory mirror must be enabled once both interfaces are ON as this feature is
disabled after each POR.
The register SRAM_MIRROR_BLOCK (see Table 10) indicates the address of the first
page of the SRAM buffer. In the case where the SRAM mirror is enabled and the READ
command is addressing blocks where the SRAM mirror is located, the SRAM mirror byte
values will be returned instead of the EEPROM byte values. Similarly, if the tag is not VCC
powered, the SRAM mirror is disabled and reading out the bytes related to the SRAM
mirror position would return the values from the EEPROM.
In the Pass-through mode (PTHRU_ON_OFF=1 - see Section 8.3.11), the SRAM is
mirrored to the fixed address 240 -255 for RF access (see Section 11) in the first memory
sector for NTAG I2C 1k and in the second memory sector for NTAG I2C 2k.
8.3.5 UID/serial number
The unique 7-byte serial number (UID) is programmed into the first 7 bytes of memory
covering page addresses 00h and 01h - see Figure 9. These bytes are programmed and
write protected in the production test.
SN0 holds the Manufacturer ID for NXP Semiconductors (04h) in accordance with
ISO/IEC 14443-3.
8.3.6 Static lock bytes
The bits of byte 2 and byte 3 of page 02h (via RF) or byte 10 and 11 address 0h (via I2C)
represent the field programmable, read-only locking mechanism (see Figure 10). Each
page from 03h (CC) to 0Fh can be individually locked by setting the corresponding locking
bit Lx to logic 1 to prevent further write access. After locking, the corresponding page
becomes read-only memory.

NXP Semiconductors NT3H1101/NT3H1201
NFC Forum type 2 Tag compliant IC with I2C interface
The three least significant bits of lock byte 0 are the block-locking bits. Bit 2 controls
pages 0Ah to 0Fh (via RF), bit 1 controls pages 04h to 09h (via RF) and bit 0 controls
page 03h (CC). Once the block-locking bits are set, the locking configuration for the
corresponding memory area is frozen.
For example, if BL15-10 is set to logic 1, then bits L15 to L10 (lock byte 1, bit[7:2]) can no
longer be changed. The static locking and block-locking bits are set by the bytes 2 and 3
of the WRITE command to page 02h. The contents of the lock bytes are bit-wise OR’ed
and the result then becomes the new content of the lock bytes.
This process is irreversible from RF perspective. If a bit is set to logic 1, it cannot be
changed back to logic 0. From I²C perspective, the bits can be reset to “0”.
The contents of bytes 0 and 1 of page 02h are unaffected by the corresponding data bytes
of the WRITE.
The default value of the static lock bytes is 00 00h.
8.3.7 Dynamic Lock Bytes
To lock the pages of NTAG I2C starting at page address 0Fh and onwards, the dynamic
lock bytes are used. The dynamic lock bytes are located at page E2h sector 0h (NTAG I2C
1k) or address E0h sector 1 (NTAG I2C 2k). The three lock bytes cover the memory area
of 830 data bytes (NTAG I2C 1k) or 1846 data bytes (NTAG I2C 2k). The granularity is 16
pages for NTAG I2C 1k and 32 pages for NTAG I2C 2k compared to a single page for the
first 48 bytes (NTAG I2C 1k) or the first 64 bytes (NTAG I2C 2k) as shown in Figure 11 and
Figure 12.
Remark: Set all bits marked with RFUI to 0 when writing to the dynamic lock bytes.

The default value of the dynamic lock bytes is 00 00 00h. The value of Byte 3 is always
00h when read.
Reading the 3 bytes for the dynamic lock bytes and the Byte 3 (00h) from RF interface
(address E2h sector 0 (NTAG I2C 1k) or E0h sector 1 (NTAG I2C 2k) or from I2C (address
38h (NTAG I2C 1k) or 78h (NTAG I2C 2k)) will also return a fixed value for the next 12
bytes of 00h.
Like for the static lock bytes, this process of modifying the dynamic lock bytes is
irreversible from RF perspective. If a bit is set to logic 1, it cannot be changed back to
logic 0. From I²C perspective, the bits can be reset to “0”.
8.3.8 Capability Container (CC bytes)
The Capability Container CC (page 3) is programmed during the IC production according
to the NFC Forum Type 2 Tag specification (see Ref. 1). These bytes may be bit-wise
modified by a WRITE command from the I²C or RF interface. See examples for NTAG I2C
1k version in Figure 13 and for NTAG I2C 2k version in Figure 14.
The default values of the CC bytes at delivery are defined in Section 8.3.10.

The capability container in page 03h and the page 04h and 05h of NTAG I2C is
pre-programmed to the initialized state according to the NFC Forum Type 2 Tag
specification (see Ref. 1) as defined in Table 4 (NTAG I2C 1k version) and Table 5 (NTAG
I
2C 2k version). This content is READ only from the RF side and READ&WRITE from the
I²C side.
The User memory contains an empty NDEF TLV.
Remark: The default content of the data pages from page 05h onwards is not defined at
delivery.
8.3.11 NTAG I2C configuration and session registers
NTAG I2C functionalities can be configured and read in two separate locations depending
if the configurations shall be effective within the communication session (session
registers) or by default after Power On Reset (POR) (configuration bits).
The configuration registers of pages E8h to E9h (sector 0 or 1 depending if it is for NTAG
I²C 1k or 2k) via the RF interface or block 3Ah or 7Ah (depending if it is for NTAG I²C 1k or
2k) via the I2C interface, see Figure 5, Figure 6, Figure 7 and Figure 8, are used to
configure the default functionalities of the NTAG I2C - see Table 6. Those bits values are
stored in the EEPROM and represent the default settings to be effective after POR. Their
values can be read & written by both interfaces when applicable and when not locked by
the register lock bits (see REG_LOCK in Table 9).

The session registers Pages F8h to F9h (sector 3) via the RF interface or block FEh via
I
2C, see Table 8, are used to configure or monitor the values of the current communication
session- see Figure 6 and Figure 8. Those bits can only be read via the RF interface but
both read and written via the I2C interface.
Both the session and the configuration bits have the same register except the
REG_LOCK bits, which are only available in the configuration bits and the NS_REG bits
which are only available in the session registers. After POR, the configuration bits are
loaded into the session registers. During the communication session, the values can be
changed, but the related effect will only be visible within the communication session for
the session registers or after POR for the configuration bits. After POR, the registers
values will be again brought back to the default configuration values.
All registers and configuration default values, access and descriptions are described in
Table 9 and Table 10.
Reading and writing the session registers via I²C can only be done via the READ &
WRITE registers operation - see Section 9.8.

The conditions for the activation of the field detection signal (FD_ON) can be:
• The presence of the RF field
• The detection of a valid command (Start-of-Frame)
• The selection of the IC.
The conditions for the de-activation of the field detection signal (FD_OFF) can be:
• The absence of the RF field
• The detection of the HALT state
• The RF interface has read the last part of the NDEF message defined with
LAST_NDEF_MESSAGE
All the various combinations of configurations are described in Table 9 and illustrated in
Figure 15, Figure 16 and Figure 17 for all various combination of the filed detection signal
configuration.
The field detection pin can also be used as a handshake mechanism in the Pass-through
mode to signal to the external microcontroller if
• New data are written to SRAM on the RF interface
• Data written to SRAM from the microcontroller are read via the RF interface.
See Section 11 for more information on this handshake mechanism.NT3H1101/NT3H1201 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.

8.5 Watchdog timer
In order to allow the I²C interface to perform all necessary commands (READ, WRITE...),
the memory access remains locked to the I²C interface til the register I2C_LOCKED is
cleared by the host - see Table 10.
In order however to avoid that the memory stays 'locked' to the I²C for a long period of
time, it is possible to program a watchdog timer to unlock the I2C host from the tag, so that
the RF reader can access the tag after a period of time of inactivity. The host itself will not
be notified of this event directly, but the NS_REG register is updated accordingly (the
register bit I2C_LOCKED will be cleared - see Table 10).
The default value is set to 20 ms (848h), but the watch dog timer can be freely set from
0001h (9.43 s) up to FFFFh (617.995 s). The timer starts ticking when the
communication between the NTAG I2C and the I2C interface starts. In case the

communication with the I2C is still going on after the watchdog timer expires, the
communication will continue until the communication has completed. Then the status
register I2C_LOCKED will be immediately cleared.
In the case where the communication with the I2C interface has completed before the end
of the timer and the status register I2C_LOCKED was not cleared by the host, it will be
cleared at the end of the watchdog timer.
The watchdog timer is only effective if the VCC pin is powered and will be reset and
stopped if the NTAG I2C is not VCC powered or if the register status I2C_LOCKED is set
to 0 and RF_LOCKED is set to 1.
8.6 Energy harvesting
The NTAG I2C provides the capability to supply external low power devices with energy
generated from the RF field of a NFC device.
The voltage and current from the energy harvesting depend on various parameters, such
as the strength of the RF field, the tag antenna size, or the distance from the NFC device.
At room temperature, NTAG I2C could provide typically 5 mA at 2 V on the VOUT pin with
an NFC Phone.
Operating NTAG I2C in energy harvesting mode requires a number of precautions:
• A significant buffer capacitor in the range of typically 10nF up to 100 nF maximum
shall be connected between VOUT and GND close to the terminals.
• If NTAG I2C also powers the I2C bus, then VCC must be connected to VOUT, and
pull-up resistors on the SCL and SDA pins must be sized to control SCL and SDA sink
current when those lines are pulled low by NTAG I2C or the I2C host
• If NTAG I2C also powers the Field Detect bus, then the pull-up resistor on the Field
Detect line must be sized to control the sink current into the Field Detect pin when
NTAG I2C pulls it low
• The NFC reader device communicating with NTAG I2C shall apply polling cycles
including an RF Field Off condition of at least 5.1 ms as defined in NFC Forum Activity
specification (see Ref. 4, chapter 6).
Note that increasing the output current on the Vout decreases the RF communication
range.NT3H1101/NT3H1201 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.

9. I²C commands
For details about I2C interface refer to Ref. 3.
The NTAG I2C supports the I2C protocol. This protocol is summarized in Figure 18. Any
device that sends data onto the bus is defined as a transmitter, and any device that reads
the data from the bus is defined as a receiver. The device that controls the data transfer is
known as the “bus master”, and the other as the “slave” device. A data transfer can only
be initiated by the bus master, which will also provide the serial clock for synchronization.
The NTAG I2C is always a slave in all communications.
9.1 Start condition
Start is identified by a falling edge of Serial Data (SDA), while Serial Clock (SCL) is stable
in the high state. A Start condition must precede any data transfer command. The NTAG
I
2C continuously monitors SDA (except during a Write cycle) and SCL for a Start
condition, and will not respond unless one is given.
9.2 Stop condition
Stop is identified by a rising edge of SDA while SCL is stable and driven high. A Stop
condition terminates communication between the NTAG I2C and the bus master. A Stop
condition at the end of a Write command triggers the internal Write cycle.

9.3 Soft reset feature
In the case where the I2C interface is constantly powered on, NTAG I2C can trigger a reset
of the I2C interface via its soft reset feature- see Table 9.
When this feature is enabled, if the microcontroller does not issue a stop condition
between two start conditions, this situation will trigger a reset of the I2C interface and
hence may hamper the communication via the I2C interface.
9.4 Acknowledge bit (ACK)
The acknowledge bit is used to indicate a successful byte transfer. The bus transmitter,
whether it is the bus master or slave device, releases Serial Data (SDA) after sending
eight bits of data. During the 9th clock pulse period, the receiver pulls Serial Data (SDA)
low to acknowledge the receipt of the eight data bits.
9.5 Data input
During data input, the NTAG I2C samples SDA on the rising edge of SCL. For correct
device operation, SDA must be stable during the rising edge of SCL, and the SDA signal
must change only when SCL is driven low.
9.6 Addressing
To start communication between a bus master and the NTAG I2C slave device, the bus
master must initiate a Start condition. Following this initiation, the bus master sends the
device address. The NTAG I2C address from I2C consists of a 7-bit device identifier (see
Table 11 for default value).
The 8th bit is the Read/Write bit (RW). This bit is set to 1 for Read and 0 for Write
operations.
If a match occurs on the device address, the NTAG I2C gives an acknowledgment on SDA
during the 9th bit time. If the NTAG I2C does not match the device select code, it deselects
itself from the bus and clear the register I2C_LOCKED (see Table 8).
[1] Initial values - can be changed.
The I2C address of the NTAG I2C (byte 0 - block 0h) can only be modified by the I2C
interface. Both interfaces have no READ access to this address and a READ command
from the RF or I²C interface to this byte will only return 04h (manufacturer ID for NXP
Semiconductors - see Figure 9).

The READ and WRITE operation handle always 16 bytes to be read or written (one block
- see Figure 8)
For the READ operation (see Figure 19), following a Start condition, the bus master/host
sends the NTAG I2C slave address code (SA - 7 bits) with the Read/Write bit (RW) reset to
0. The NTAG I2C acknowledges this (A), and waits for one address byte (MEMA), which
should correspond to the address of the block of memory (SRAM or EEPROM) that is
intended to be read. The NTAG I2C responds to a valid address byte with an acknowledge
(A). A Stop condition can be then issued. Then the host again issues a start condition
followed by the NTAG I2C slave address with the Read/Write bit set to “1”. The NTAG I2C
acknowledges this (A) and sends the first byte of data read (D0).The bus master/host
acknowledges it (A) and the NTAG I2C will subsequently transmit the following 15 bytes of
memory read with an acknowledge from the host after every byte. After the last byte of
memory data has been transmitted by the NTAG I2C, the bus master/host will
acknowledge it and issue a Stop condition.
For the WRITE operation (see Figure 19), following a Start condition, the bus master/host
sends the NTAG I2C slave address code (SA - 7 bits) with the Read/Write bit (RW) reset to
0. The NTAG I2C acknowledges this (A), and waits for one address byte (MEMA), which
should correspond to the address of the block of memory (SRAM or EEPROM) that is
intended to be written. The NTAG I2C responds to a valid address byte with an
acknowledge (A) and, in the case of a WRITE operation, the bus master/host starts
transmitting each 16 bytes (D0...D15) that shall be written at the specified address with an
acknowledge of the NTAG I²C after each byte (A). After the last byte acknowledge from
the NTAG I²C, the bus master/host issues a Stop condition.
The memory address accessible via the READ and WRITE operations can only
correspond to the EEPROM or SRAM (respectively 00h to 3Ah or F8h to FBh for NTAG
I²C 1k and 00h to 7Ah or F8h to FBh for NTAG I²C 2k).xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxx x x x xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xx xx xxxxx

For the READ register operation, following a Start condition the bus master/host sends the
NTAG I²C slave address code (SA - 7 bits) with the Read/Write bit (RW) reset to 0. The
NTAG I2C acknowledges this (A), and waits for one address byte (MEMA) which
corresponds to the address of the block of memory with the session register bytes (FEh).
The NTAG I2C responds to the address byte with an acknowledge (A). Then the bus
master/host issues a register address (REGA), which corresponds to the address of the
targeted byte inside the block FEh (00h, 01h...to 07h) and then waits for the Stop
condition.
Then the bus master/host again issues a start condition followed by the NTAG I²C slave
address with the Read/Write bit set to “1”. The NTAG I²C acknowledges this (A), and
sends the selected byte of session register data (REGDAT) within the block FEh. The bus
master/host will acknowledge it and issue a Stop condition.
For the WRITE register operation, following a Start condition, the bus master/host sends
the NTAG I²C slave address code (SA - 7 bits) with the Read/Write bit (RW) reset to 0.
The NTAG I2C acknowledges this (A), and waits for one address byte (MEMA), which
corresponds to the address of the block of memory within the session register bytes
(FEh). After the NTAG I2C acknowledge (A), the bus master/host issues a MASK byte that
defines exactly which bits shall be modified by a “1” bit value at the corresponding bit
position. Following the NTAG I²C acknowledge (A), the new register data (one byte -
REGDAT) to be written is transmitted by the bus master/host. The NTAG I²C
acknowledges it (A), and the bus master/host issues a stop condition.NT3H1101/NT3H1201 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.

10. RF Command
NTAG activation follows the ISO/IEC 14443 Type A specification. After NTAG I2C has
been selected, it can either be deactivated using the ISO/IEC 14443 HALT command, or
NTAG commands (e.g., READ or WRITE) can be performed. For more details about the
card activation refer to Ref. 2.
10.1 NTAG I2C command overview
All available commands for NTAG I2C are shown in Table 12.
[1] Unless otherwise specified, all commands use the coding and framing as described in Ref. 1.
10.2 Timing
The command and response timing shown in this document are not to scale and values
are rounded to 1 s.
All given command and response times refer to the data frames, including start of
communication and end of communication. They do not include the encoding (like the
Miller pulses). An NFC device data frame contains the start of communication (1
“start bit”) and the end of communication (one logic 0 + 1 bit length of unmodulated
carrier). An NFC tag data frame contains the start of communication (1 “start bit”) and the
end of communication (1 bit length of no subcarrier).
The minimum command response time is specified according to Ref. 1 as an integer n,
which specifies the NFC device to NFC tag frame delay time. The frame delay time from
NFC tag to NFC device is at least 87 s. The maximum command response time is
specified as a time-out value. Depending on the command, the TACK value specified for
command responses defines the NFC device to NFC tag frame delay time. It does it for
either the 4-bit ACK value specified or for a data frame.
All timing can be measured according to the ISO/IEC 14443-3 frame specification as
shown for the Frame Delay Time in Figure 21. For more details refer to Ref. 2.

Remark: The ATQA coding in bits 7 and 8 indicate the UID size according to
ISO/IEC 14443 independent from the settings of the UID usage.
Remark: The bit numbering in the ISO/IEC 14443 specification starts with LSB = bit 1 and
not with
LSB = bit 0. So 1 byte counts bit 1 to bit 8 instead of bit 0 to 7.
10.5 GET_VERSION
The GET_VERSION command is used to retrieve information about the NTAG family, the
product version, storage size and other product data required to identify the specific NTAG
I
2C.
This command is also available on other NTAG products to have a common way of
identifying products across platforms and evolution steps.
The GET_VERSION command has no arguments and returns the version information for
the specific NTAG I2C type. The command structure is shown in Figure 22 and Table 16.
Table 17 shows the required timing.

NFC Forum type 2 Tag compliant IC with I2C interface
The most significant 7 bits of the storage size byte are interpreted as an unsigned integer
value n. As a result, it codes the total available user memory size as 2n. If the least
significant bit is 0b, the user memory size is exactly 2n. If the least significant bit is 1b, the
user memory size is between 2n and 2n+1.
The user memory for NTAG I²C 1k is 888 bytes. This memory size is between 512 bytes
and 1024 bytes. Therefore, the most significant 7 bits of the value 13h, are interpreted as
9d, and the least significant bit is 1b.
The user memory for NTAG I²C 2k is 1904 bytes. This memory size is between 1024
bytes and 2048 bytes. Therefore, the most significant 7 bits of the value 15h, are
interpreted as 10d, and the least significant bit is 1b.
10.6 READ
The READ command requires a start page address, and returns the 16 bytes of four
NTAG I2C pages. For example, if address (Addr) is 03h then pages 03h, 04h, 05h, 06h are
returned. Special conditions apply if the READ command address is near the end of the
accessible memory area. For details on those cases and the command structure refer to
Figure 23 and Table 19.

In the initial state of NTAG I2C, all memory pages are allowed as Addr parameter to the
READ command:
• Page address from 00h to E2h and E8h for NTAG I²C 1k
• Page address from 00h to FFh (sector 0h), from page 00h to E0h and E8h (sector 1h)
for NTAG I²C 2k
• SRAM buffer when Passthrough is ON
Addressing a start memory page beyond the limits above results in a NAK response from
NTAG I2C.
In case a READ command addressing start with a valid memory area but extends over an
invalid memory area, the content of the invalid memory area will be reported as 00h.
10.7 FAST_READ
The FAST_READ command requires a start page address and an end page address and
returns all n*4 bytes of the addressed pages. For example, if the start address is 03h and

11. Communication and arbitration between RF and I²C interface
If both interfaces are powered by their corresponding source, only one interface shall
have access according to the "first-come, first-serve" principle.
In NS_REG, the two status bits I2C_LOCKED and RF_LOCKED reflect the status of the
NTAG I²C memory access and indicate which interface is locking the memory access. At
power on, both bits are 0, setting the arbitration in idle mode.
In the case arbiter locks to the I²C interface, an RF reader still can access the session
registers. If the ISO state machine is in 'active' state, only the SECTOR SELECT
command is allowed. But any other command requiring EEPROM access like READ or
WRITE is handled as an illegal command and replied to with a special NAK value.
In the case where the memory access is locked to the RF interface, the I²C host still can
access the NFC register, by issuing a 'Register READ/WRITE' command. All other read or
write commands will be replied to with a NACK to the I²C host.
11.1 Non Pass-through Mode
PTHRU_ON_OFF = 0 (see Table 10) indicates non-Pass-through mode.
11.1.1 I²C interface access
If the tag is in the IDLE or HALT state (RF state after POR or HALT-command) and the
correct I²C slave address of NTAG I²C is specified following the START condition, bit
I2C_LOCKED will be automatically set to “1b”. If I2C_LOCKED=,1 the I²C interface has
access to the tag memory and the tag will respond with a NACK to any memory
READ/WRITE command on the RF interface other than reading the register bytes
command during this time.
I2C_LOCKED must be either reset to 0 at the end of the I²C sequence or wait until the end
of the watch dog timer.
11.1.2 RF interface access
The arbitration will allow the RF interface to read and write accesses to EEPROM only
when I2C_LOCKED is not set to “1b”.
RF_LOCKED is automatically set to “1b” if the tag receives a valid command (EEPROM
Access Commands) on the RF interface. If RF_LOCKED=1, the tag is locked to the RF
interface and will not respond to any command from the I²C interface other than READ
register command (see Table 10).
RF_LOCKED is automatically set to 0 in one of the following conditions
• At POR or if the RF field is switched off
• If the tag is set to the HALT state with a HALT command on the RF interface
• If the memory access command is finished on the RF interface
When the RF interface has read the last page of the NDEF message specified in
LAST_NDEF_BLOCK (see Table 9 and Table 10) the bit NDEF_DATA_READ - in the
register NS_REG see Table 10 - is set to “1b” and indicates to the I²C interface that, for
example, new NDEF data can be written. NT3H1101/NT3H1201 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.

11.2 SRAM buffer mapping with Memory Mirror enabled
With SRAM_MIRROR_ON_OFF= 1, the SRAM buffer mirroring is enabled. This mode
cannot be combined with the pass through mode (see Section 11.3).
With the Memory Mirror enabled, the SRAM is now mapped into the User Memory from
the RF interface perspective using the SRAM mirror lower page address specified in
SRAM_MIRROR_BLOCK byte (Table 9 and Table 10). See Figure 27 (NTAG I²C 1k) and
Figure 28(NTAG I²C 2k) for an illustration of this SRAM memory mapping when
SRAM_MIRROR_BLOCK is set to 1h. The SRAM buffer will be then available in 2
locations: inside the User memory and at the end of the first or second memory sector
(respectively NTAG I²C 1k or NTAG I²C 2k).
The tag must be VCC powered to make this mode work, because without VCC, the SRAM
will not be accessible via RF powered only.
When mapping the SRAM buffer to the User Memory, the User shall be aware that all data
written into the SRAM part of the User memory will be lost once the NTAG I²C is no longer
powered from the I²C side (as SRAM is a volatile memory).NT3H1101/NT3H1201 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.

11.3 Pass-through mode
PTHRU_ON_OFF = 1 (see Table 10) enables and indicates Pass-through mode.
To handle large amount of data transfer from one interface to the other, NTAG I²C offers
the Pass-through mode where data is transferred via a 64 byte SRAM buffer. This buffer
offers fast write access and unlimited WRITE endurance as well as an easy handshake
mechanism between the 2 interfaces.

NFC Forum type 2 Tag compliant IC with I2C interface
This buffer is mapped directly at the end of the sector 0h (NTAG I²C 1k) or sector 1h
(NTAG I²C 2k) of the memory (from the RF interface perspective).
In both cases, the principle of access to the SRAM buffer via the RF and I²C interface is
exactly the same (see Section 11.3.2 and Section 11.3.3).
The data flow direction must be set with the PTHRU_DIR bit (see Table 10) within the
current communication session with the session registers (in this case, it can only be set
via the I²C interfaces) or for the configuration bits after POR (in this case both RF and I²C
interface can set it). This pass through direction settings avoids locking the memory
access during the data transfer from one interface to the SRAM buffer.
The pass-through mode can only be enabled when both interfaces are ON and only via
the I²C interface via the bit PTHRU_ON_OFF located in the session registers NC_REG
(see Section 8.3.11). In case one interface powers off, the pass-through mode is disabled
automatically.
11.3.1 SRAM buffer mapping
In Pass-through mode, the SRAM is mirrored to pages F0h to FFh sector 0h for the NTAG
I²C 1k - see Figure 29 - or sector 1h for the NTAG I²C 2k - see Figure 30 - outside the User
memory.
The last page/block of the SRAM buffer (page 16) is used as the terminator page. Once
the terminator page/block in the respective interfaces is read/written, the control would be
transferred to other interface (RF/I²C) - see Section 11.3.2 and Section 11.3.3 for more
details.
Accordingly, the application can align on the Reader & Host side to transfer 16/32/48/64
bytes of data in one pass through step by only using the last blocks/page of the SRAM
buffer.
When using FAST_READ to read the SRAM buffer from RF, the EndAddress input of the
FAST_READ command has to be always set to FFh.NT3H1101/NT3H1201 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.

NXP Semiconductors NT3H1101/NT3H1201
NFC Forum type 2 Tag compliant IC with I2C interface
To signal to the host that data is ready to be read following mechanisms are in place:
• The host polls/reads bit SRAM_I2C_READY from NS_REG (see Table 10) to know if
data is ready in SRAM
• A trigger on the "FD" pin indicates to the host that data is ready to be read from
SRAM. This feature can be enabled by programming bits 5:2 (FD_OFF, FD_ON) of
the NC_REG appropriately (see Table 9)
This is illustrated in the Figure 31.
If the tag is addressed with the correct I²C slave address, the I2C_LOCKED bit is
automatically set to 1 (according to the interface arbitration). After a READ from the
terminator page of the SRAM, bit SRAM_I2C_READY and bit I2C_LOCKED are
automatically reset to 0, and the tag returns to the arbitration idle mode where, for
example, further data from the RF interface can be transferred.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxx x x x xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xx xx xxxxx

11.3.3 I²C to RF Data transfer
If the I²C interface is enabled (I2C_LOCKED is 1) and data is written to the terminator
page of the SRAM via the I²C interface, at the end of the WRITE command, bit
SRAM_RF_READY is set to 1 and bit I2C_LOCKED is automatically reset to 0 to set the
tag in the arbitration idle state.
The RF_LOCKED bit is then automatically set to 1 (according to the interface arbitration).
After a READ or FAST_READ command involving the terminator block/page of the
SRAM, bit SRAM_RF_READY and bit RF_LOCKED are automatically reset to 0 allowing
the I²C interface to further write data into the SRAM buffer.
To signal to the host that further data is ready to be written, the following mechanisms are
in place:
• The RF interface polls/reads the bit SRAM_RF_READY from NS_REG (see Table 10)
to know if new data has been written by the I²C interface in the SRAM
• A trigger on the "FD" pin indicates to the host that data has been read from SRAM by
the RF interface. This feature can be enabled by programming bits 5:2 (FD_OFF,
FD_ON) of the NC_REG appropriately (see Table 9)
The above mechanism is illustrated in the Figure 32.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxx x x x xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xx xx xxxxx

matrix that can be used with SSP, I2S-bus, UART, Analog-to-Digital and
Digital-to-Analog converter peripherals, timer match signals, and for
memory-to-memory transfers.
Multilayer AHB matrix interconnect provides a separate bus for each AHB master.
AHB masters include the CPU, General Purpose DMA controller, Ethernet MAC, and
the USB interface. This interconnect provides communication with no arbitration
delays.
Split APB bus allows high throughput with few stalls between the CPU and DMA.

NXP Semiconductors LPC1769/68/67/66/65/64/63
32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 microcontroller
8. Functional description
8.1 Architectural overview
Remark: In the following, the notation LPC17xx refers to all parts:
LPC1769/68/67/66/65/64/63.
The ARM Cortex-M3 includes three AHB-Lite buses: the system bus, the I-code bus, and
the D-code bus (see Figure 1). The I-code and D-code core buses are faster than the
system bus and are used similarly to TCM interfaces: one bus dedicated for instruction
fetch (I-code) and one bus for data access (D-code). The use of two core buses allows for
simultaneous operations if concurrent operations target different devices.
The LPC17xx use a multi-layer AHB matrix to connect the ARM Cortex-M3 buses and
other bus masters to peripherals in a flexible manner that optimizes performance by
allowing peripherals that are on different slaves ports of the matrix to be accessed
simultaneously by different bus masters.
8.2 ARM Cortex-M3 processor
The ARM Cortex-M3 is a general purpose, 32-bit microprocessor, which offers high
performance and very low power consumption. The ARM Cortex-M3 offers many new
features, including a Thumb-2 instruction set, low interrupt latency, hardware divide,
interruptible/continuable multiple load and store instructions, automatic state save and
restore for interrupts, tightly integrated interrupt controller with wake-up interrupt
controller, and multiple core buses capable of simultaneous accesses.
Pipeline techniques are employed so that all parts of the processing and memory systems
can operate continuously. Typically, while one instruction is being executed, its successor
is being decoded, and a third instruction is being fetched from memory.
The ARM Cortex-M3 processor is described in detail in the Cortex-M3 Technical
Reference Manual that can be found on official ARM website.
8.3 On-chip flash program memory
The LPC17xx contain up to 512 kB of on-chip flash memory. A new two-port flash
accelerator maximizes performance for use with the two fast AHB-Lite buses.
8.4 On-chip SRAM
The LPC17xx contain a total of 64 kB on-chip static RAM memory. This includes the main
32 kB SRAM, accessible by the CPU and DMA controller on a higher-speed bus, and two
additional 16 kB each SRAM blocks situated on a separate slave port on the AHB
multilayer matrix.
This architecture allows CPU and DMA accesses to be spread over three separate RAMs
that can be accessed simultaneously.
8.5 Memory Protection Unit (MPU)
The LPC17xx have a Memory Protection Unit (MPU) which can be used to improve the
reliability of an embedded system by protecting critical data within the user application.LPC1769_68_67_66_65_64_63 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.
Product data sheet Rev. 9.5 — 24 June 2014 22 of 89
NXP Semiconductors LPC1769/68/67/66/65/64/63
32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 microcontroller
The MPU allows separating processing tasks by disallowing access to each other's data,
disabling access to memory regions, allowing memory regions to be defined as read-only
and detecting unexpected memory accesses that could potentially break the system.
The MPU separates the memory into distinct regions and implements protection by
preventing disallowed accesses. The MPU supports up to 8 regions each of which can be
divided into 8 subregions. Accesses to memory locations that are not defined in the MPU
regions, or not permitted by the region setting, will cause the Memory Management Fault
exception to take place.
8.6 Memory map
The LPC17xx incorporates several distinct memory regions, shown in the following
figures. Figure 5 shows the overall map of the entire address space from the user
program viewpoint following reset. The interrupt vector area supports address remapping.
The AHB peripheral area is 2 MB in size and is divided to allow for up to 128 peripherals.
The APB peripheral area is 1 MB in size and is divided to allow for up to 64 peripherals.
Each peripheral of either type is allocated 16 kB of space. This allows simplifying the
address decoding for each peripheral.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxx x x x xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xx xx xxxxx

NXP Semiconductors LPC1769/68/67/66/65/64/63
32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 microcontroller
8.7 Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller (NVIC)
The NVIC is an integral part of the Cortex-M3. The tight coupling to the CPU allows for low
interrupt latency and efficient processing of late arriving interrupts.
8.7.1 Features
• Controls system exceptions and peripheral interrupts
• In the LPC17xx, the NVIC supports 33 vectored interrupts
• 32 programmable interrupt priority levels, with hardware priority level masking
• Relocatable vector table
• Non-Maskable Interrupt (NMI)
• Software interrupt generation
8.7.2 Interrupt sources
Each peripheral device has one interrupt line connected to the NVIC but may have several
interrupt flags. Individual interrupt flags may also represent more than one interrupt
source.
Any pin on Port 0 and Port 2 (total of 42 pins) regardless of the selected function, can be
programmed to generate an interrupt on a rising edge, a falling edge, or both.
8.8 Pin connect block
The pin connect block allows selected pins of the microcontroller to have more than one
function. Configuration registers control the multiplexers to allow connection between the
pin and the on-chip peripherals.
Peripherals should be connected to the appropriate pins prior to being activated and prior
to any related interrupt(s) being enabled. Activity of any enabled peripheral function that is
not mapped to a related pin should be considered undefined.
Most pins can also be configured as open-drain outputs or to have a pull-up, pull-down, or
no resistor enabled.
8.9 General purpose DMA controller
The GPDMA is an AMBA AHB compliant peripheral allowing selected peripherals to have
DMA support.
The GPDMA enables peripheral-to-memory, memory-to-peripheral,
peripheral-to-peripheral, and memory-to-memory transactions. The source and
destination areas can each be either a memory region or a peripheral, and can be
accessed through the AHB master. The GPDMA controller allows data transfers between
the USB and Ethernet controllers and the various on-chip SRAM areas. The supported
APB peripherals are SSP0/1, all UARTs, the I2S-bus interface, the ADC, and the DAC.
Two match signals for each timer can be used to trigger DMA transfers.
Remark: The Ethernet controller is available on parts LPC1769/68/67/66/64. The USB
controller is available on parts LPC1769/68/66/65/64. The I2S-bus interface is available on
parts LPC1769/68/67/66/65. The DAC is available on parts LPC1769/68/67/66/65/63.LPC1769_68_67_66_65_64_63 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.

NXP Semiconductors LPC1769/68/67/66/65/64/63
32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 microcontroller
8.9.1 Features
• Eight DMA channels. Each channel can support an unidirectional transfer.
• 16 DMA request lines.
• Single DMA and burst DMA request signals. Each peripheral connected to the DMA
Controller can assert either a burst DMA request or a single DMA request. The DMA
burst size is set by programming the DMA Controller.
• Memory-to-memory, memory-to-peripheral, peripheral-to-memory, and
peripheral-to-peripheral transfers are supported.
• Scatter or gather DMA is supported through the use of linked lists. This means that
the source and destination areas do not have to occupy contiguous areas of memory.
• Hardware DMA channel priority.
• AHB slave DMA programming interface. The DMA Controller is programmed by
writing to the DMA control registers over the AHB slave interface.
• One AHB bus master for transferring data. The interface transfers data when a DMA
request goes active.
• 32-bit AHB master bus width.
• Incrementing or non-incrementing addressing for source and destination.
• Programmable DMA burst size. The DMA burst size can be programmed to more
efficiently transfer data.
• Internal four-word FIFO per channel.
• Supports 8, 16, and 32-bit wide transactions.
• Big-endian and little-endian support. The DMA Controller defaults to little-endian
mode on reset.
• An interrupt to the processor can be generated on a DMA completion or when a DMA
error has occurred.
• Raw interrupt status. The DMA error and DMA count raw interrupt status can be read
prior to masking.
8.10 Fast general purpose parallel I/O
Device pins that are not connected to a specific peripheral function are controlled by the
GPIO registers. Pins may be dynamically configured as inputs or outputs. Separate
registers allow setting or clearing any number of outputs simultaneously. The value of the
output register may be read back as well as the current state of the port pins.
LPC17xx use accelerated GPIO functions:
• GPIO registers are accessed through the AHB multilayer bus so that the fastest
possible I/O timing can be achieved.
• Mask registers allow treating sets of port bits as a group, leaving other bits
unchanged.
• All GPIO registers are byte and half-word addressable.
• Entire port value can be written in one instruction.
• Support for Cortex-M3 bit banding.
• Support for use with the GPDMA controller.LPC1769_68_67_66_65_64_63 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.

NXP Semiconductors LPC1769/68/67/66/65/64/63
32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 microcontroller
Additionally, any pin on Port 0 and Port 2 (total of 42 pins) providing a digital function can
be programmed to generate an interrupt on a rising edge, a falling edge, or both. The
edge detection is asynchronous, so it may operate when clocks are not present such as
during Power-down mode. Each enabled interrupt can be used to wake up the chip from
Power-down mode.
8.10.1 Features
• Bit level set and clear registers allow a single instruction to set or clear any number of
bits in one port.
• Direction control of individual bits.
• All I/O default to inputs after reset.
• Pull-up/pull-down resistor configuration and open-drain configuration can be
programmed through the pin connect block for each GPIO pin.
8.11 Ethernet
Remark: The Ethernet controller is available on parts LPC1769/68/67/66/64. The
Ethernet block supports bus clock rates of up to 100 MHz (LPC1768/67/66/64) or 120
MHz (LPC1769). See Table 2.
The Ethernet block contains a full featured 10 Mbit/s or 100 Mbit/s Ethernet MAC
designed to provide optimized performance through the use of DMA hardware

operation, flow control, control frames, hardware acceleration for transmit retry, receive
packet filtering and wake-up on LAN activity. Automatic frame transmission and reception
with scatter-gather DMA off-loads many operations from the CPU.
The Ethernet block and the CPU share the ARM Cortex-M3 D-code and system bus
through the AHB-multilayer matrix to access the various on-chip SRAM blocks for
Ethernet data, control, and status information.
The Ethernet block interfaces between an off-chip Ethernet PHY using the Reduced MII
(RMII) protocol and the on-chip Media Independent Interface Management (MIIM) serial
bus.

8.12.1 USB device controller
The device controller enables 12 Mbit/s data exchange with a USB Host controller. It
consists of a register interface, serial interface engine, endpoint buffer memory, and a
DMA controller. The serial interface engine decodes the USB data stream and writes data
to the appropriate endpoint buffer. The status of a completed USB transfer or error
condition is indicated via status registers. An interrupt is also generated if enabled. When
enabled, the DMA controller transfers data between the endpoint buffer and the on-chip
SRAM.

(SCL) and a Serial DAta line (SDA). Each device is recognized by a unique address and
can operate as either a receiver-only device (e.g., an LCD driver) or a transmitter with the
capability to both receive and send information (such as memory). Transmitters and/or
receivers can operate in either master or slave mode, depending on whether the chip has
to initiate a data transfer or is only addressed. The I2C is a multi-master bus and can be
controlled by more than one bus master connected to it.
8.19.1 Features
• I
2C0 is a standard I2C compliant bus interface with open-drain pins. I2C0 also

8.20 I2S-bus serial I/O controllers
Remark: The I2S-bus interface is available on parts LPC1769/68/67/66/65/63. See
Table 2.
The I2S-bus provides a standard communication interface for digital audio applications.
The I
2S-bus specification defines a 3-wire serial bus using one data line, one clock line,
and one word select signal. The basic I2S-bus connection has one master, which is
always the master, and one slave. The I2S-bus interface provides a separate transmit and
receive channel, each of which can operate as either a master or a slave.
8.20.1 Features
• The interface has separate input/output channels each of which can operate in master
or slave mode.
• Capable of handling 8-bit, 16-bit, and 32-bit word sizes.
• Mono and stereo audio data supported.
• The sampling frequency can range from 16 kHz to 96 kHz (16, 22.05, 32, 44.1, 48,
96) kHz.
• Support for an audio master clock.
• Configurable word select period in master mode (separately for I2S-bus input and
output).
• Two 8-word FIFO data buffers are provided, one for transmit and one for receive.
• Generates interrupt requests when buffer levels cross a programmable boundary.
• Two DMA requests, controlled by programmable buffer levels. These are connected
to the GPDMA block.
• Controls include reset, stop and mute options separately for I2S-bus input and I2S-bus
output.
8.21 General purpose 32-bit timers/external event counters
The LPC17xx include four 32-bit timer/counters. The timer/counter is designed to count
cycles of the system derived clock or an externally-supplied clock. It can optionally
generate interrupts, generate timed DMA requests, or perform other actions at specified
timer values, based on four match registers. Each timer/counter also includes two capture
inputs to trap the timer value when an input signal transitions, optionally generating an
interrupt.
8.21.1 Features
• A 32-bit timer/counter with a programmable 32-bit prescaler.
• Counter or timer operation.
• Two 32-bit capture channels per timer, that can take a snapshot of the timer value
when an input signal transitions. A capture event may also generate an interrupt.
• Four 32-bit match registers that allow:
– Continuous operation with optional interrupt generation on match.
– Stop timer on match with optional interrupt generation.
– Reset timer on match with optional interrupt generation.LPC1769_68_67_66_65_64_63 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.

NXP Semiconductors LPC1769/68/67/66/65/64/63
32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 microcontroller
• Up to four external outputs corresponding to match registers, with the following
capabilities:
– Set LOW on match.
– Set HIGH on match.
– Toggle on match.
– Do nothing on match.
• Up to two match registers can be used to generate timed DMA requests.
8.22 Pulse width modulator
The PWM is based on the standard Timer block and inherits all of its features, although
only the PWM function is pinned out on the LPC17xx. The Timer is designed to count
cycles of the system derived clock and optionally switch pins, generate interrupts or
perform other actions when specified timer values occur, based on seven match registers.
The PWM function is in addition to these features, and is based on match register events.
The ability to separately control rising and falling edge locations allows the PWM to be
used for more applications. For instance, multi-phase motor control typically requires
three non-overlapping PWM outputs with individual control of all three pulse widths and
positions.
Two match registers can be used to provide a single edge controlled PWM output. One
match register (PWMMR0) controls the PWM cycle rate, by resetting the count upon
match. The other match register controls the PWM edge position. Additional single edge
controlled PWM outputs require only one match register each, since the repetition rate is
the same for all PWM outputs. Multiple single edge controlled PWM outputs will all have a
rising edge at the beginning of each PWM cycle, when an PWMMR0 match occurs.
Three match registers can be used to provide a PWM output with both edges controlled.
Again, the PWMMR0 match register controls the PWM cycle rate. The other match
registers control the two PWM edge positions. Additional double edge controlled PWM
outputs require only two match registers each, since the repetition rate is the same for all
PWM outputs.
With double edge controlled PWM outputs, specific match registers control the rising and
falling edge of the output. This allows both positive going PWM pulses (when the rising
edge occurs prior to the falling edge), and negative going PWM pulses (when the falling
edge occurs prior to the rising edge).
8.22.1 Features
• One PWM block with Counter or Timer operation (may use the peripheral clock or one
of the capture inputs as the clock source).
• Seven match registers allow up to 6 single edge controlled or 3 double edge
controlled PWM outputs, or a mix of both types. The match registers also allow:
– Continuous operation with optional interrupt generation on match.
– Stop timer on match with optional interrupt generation.
– Reset timer on match with optional interrupt generation.LPC1769_68_67_66_65_64_63 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.

• Supports single edge controlled and/or double edge controlled PWM outputs. Single
edge controlled PWM outputs all go high at the beginning of each cycle unless the
output is a constant low. Double edge controlled PWM outputs can have either edge
occur at any position within a cycle. This allows for both positive going and negative
going pulses.
• Pulse period and width can be any number of timer counts. This allows complete
flexibility in the trade-off between resolution and repetition rate. All PWM outputs will
occur at the same repetition rate.
• Double edge controlled PWM outputs can be programmed to be either positive going
or negative going pulses.
• Match register updates are synchronized with pulse outputs to prevent generation of
erroneous pulses. Software must ‘release’ new match values before they can become
effective.
• May be used as a standard 32-bit timer/counter with a programmable 32-bit prescaler
if the PWM mode is not enabled.
8.23 Motor control PWM
The motor control PWM is a specialized PWM supporting 3-phase motors and other
combinations. Feedback inputs are provided to automatically sense rotor position and use
that information to ramp speed up or down. An abort input is also provided that causes the
PWM to immediately release all motor drive outputs. At the same time, the motor control
PWM is highly configurable for other generalized timing, counting, capture, and compare
applications.
8.24 Quadrature Encoder Interface (QEI)
A quadrature encoder, also known as a 2-channel incremental encoder, converts angular
displacement into two pulse signals. By monitoring both the number of pulses and the
relative phase of the two signals, the user can track the position, direction of rotation, and
velocity. In addition, a third channel, or index signal, can be used to reset the position
counter. The quadrature encoder interface decodes the digital pulses from a quadrature
encoder wheel to integrate position over time and determine direction of rotation. In
addition, the QEI can capture the velocity of the encoder wheel.
8.24.1 Features
• Tracks encoder position.
• Increments/decrements depending on direction.
• Programmable for 2 or 4 position counting.
• Velocity capture using built-in timer.
• Velocity compare function with “less than” interrupt.
• Uses 32-bit registers for position and velocity.
• Three position compare registers with interrupts.
• Index counter for revolution counting.
• Index compare register with interrupts.
• Can combine index and position interrupts to produce an interrupt for whole and
partial revolution displacement.LPC1769_68_67_66_65_64_63 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.

32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 microcontroller
• Digital filter with programmable delays for encoder input signals.
• Can accept decoded signal inputs (clk and direction).
• Connected to APB.
8.25 Repetitive Interrupt (RI) timer
The repetitive interrupt timer provides a free-running 32-bit counter which is compared to
a selectable value, generating an interrupt when a match occurs. Any bits of the
timer/compare can be masked such that they do not contribute to the match detection.
The repetitive interrupt timer can be used to create an interrupt that repeats at
predetermined intervals.
8.25.1 Features
• 32-bit counter running from PCLK. Counter can be free-running or be reset by a
generated interrupt.
• 32-bit compare value.
• 32-bit compare mask. An interrupt is generated when the counter value equals the
compare value, after masking. This allows for combinations not possible with a simple
compare.
8.26 ARM Cortex-M3 system tick timer
The ARM Cortex-M3 includes a system tick timer (SYSTICK) that is intended to generate
a dedicated SYSTICK exception at a 10 ms interval. In the LPC17xx, this timer can be
clocked from the internal AHB clock or from a device pin.
8.27 Watchdog timer
The purpose of the watchdog is to reset the microcontroller within a reasonable amount of
time if it enters an erroneous state. When enabled, the watchdog will generate a system
reset if the user program fails to ‘feed’ (or reload) the watchdog within a predetermined
amount of time.
8.27.1 Features
• Internally resets chip if not periodically reloaded.
• Debug mode.
• Enabled by software but requires a hardware reset or a watchdog reset/interrupt to be
disabled.
• Incorrect/Incomplete feed sequence causes reset/interrupt if enabled.
• Flag to indicate watchdog reset.
• Programmable 32-bit timer with internal prescaler.
• Selectable time period from (Tcy(WDCLK) 256 4) to (Tcy(WDCLK) 232 4) in
multiples of Tcy(WDCLK) 4.
• The Watchdog Clock (WDCLK) source can be selected from the Internal RC (IRC)
oscillator, the RTC oscillator, or the APB peripheral clock. This gives a wide range of
potential timing choices of Watchdog operation under different power reduction LPC1769_68_67_66_65_64_63 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.

conditions. It also provides the ability to run the WDT from an entirely internal source
that is not dependent on an external crystal and its associated components and wiring
for increased reliability.
• Includes lock/safe feature.
8.28 RTC and backup registers
The RTC is a set of counters for measuring time when system power is on, and optionally
when it is off. The RTC on the LPC17xx is designed to have extremely low power
consumption, i.e. less than 1 A. The RTC will typically run from the main chip power
supply, conserving battery power while the rest of the device is powered up. When
operating from a battery, the RTC will continue working down to 2.1 V. Battery power can
be provided from a standard 3 V Lithium button cell.
An ultra-low power 32 kHz oscillator will provide a 1 Hz clock to the time counting portion
of the RTC, moving most of the power consumption out of the time counting function.
The RTC includes a calibration mechanism to allow fine-tuning the count rate in a way
that will provide less than 1 second per day error when operated at a constant voltage and
temperature. A clock output function (see Section 8.29.4) makes measuring the oscillator
rate easy and accurate.
The RTC contains a small set of backup registers (20 bytes) for holding data while the
main part of the LPC17xx is powered off.
The RTC includes an alarm function that can wake up the LPC17xx from all reduced
power modes with a time resolution of 1 s.
8.28.1 Features
• Measures the passage of time to maintain a calendar and clock.
• Ultra low power design to support battery powered systems.
• Provides Seconds, Minutes, Hours, Day of Month, Month, Year, Day of Week, and
Day of Year.
• Dedicated power supply pin can be connected to a battery or to the main 3.3 V.
• Periodic interrupts can be generated from increments of any field of the time registers.
• Backup registers (20 bytes) powered by VBAT.
• RTC power supply is isolated from the rest of the chip.
8.29 Clocking and power control
8.29.1 Crystal oscillators
The LPC17xx include three independent oscillators. These are the main oscillator, the IRC
oscillator, and the RTC oscillator. Each oscillator can be used for more than one purpose
as required in a particular application. Any of the three clock sources can be chosen by
software to drive the main PLL and ultimately the CPU.
Following reset, the LPC17xx will operate from the Internal RC oscillator until switched by
software. This allows systems to operate without any external crystal and the bootloader
code to operate at a known frequency. LPC1769_68_67_66_65_64_63 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.

32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 microcontroller
See Figure 6 for an overview of the LPC17xx clock generation.
8.29.1.1 Internal RC oscillator
The IRC may be used as the clock source for the WDT, and/or as the clock that drives the
PLL and subsequently the CPU. The nominal IRC frequency is 4 MHz. The IRC is
trimmed to 1 % accuracy over the entire voltage and temperature range.
Upon power-up or any chip reset, the LPC17xx use the IRC as the clock source. Software
may later switch to one of the other available clock sources.
8.29.1.2 Main oscillator
The main oscillator can be used as the clock source for the CPU, with or without using the
PLL. The main oscillator also provides the clock source for the dedicated USB PLL.
The main oscillator operates at frequencies of 1 MHz to 25 MHz. This frequency can be
boosted to a higher frequency, up to the maximum CPU operating frequency, by the main
PLL. The clock selected as the PLL input is PLLCLKIN. The ARM processor clock
frequency is referred to as CCLK elsewhere in this document. The frequencies of
PLLCLKIN and CCLK are the same value unless the PLL is active and connected. The
clock frequency for each peripheral can be selected individually and is referred to as
PCLK. Refer to Section 8.29.2 for additional information.
8.29.1.3 RTC oscillator
The RTC oscillator can be used as the clock source for the RTC block, the main PLL,
and/or the CPU.

NXP Semiconductors LPC1769/68/67/66/65/64/63
32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 microcontroller
8.29.2 Main PLL (PLL0)
The PLL0 accepts an input clock frequency in the range of 32 kHz to 25 MHz. The input
frequency is multiplied up to a high frequency, then divided down to provide the actual
clock used by the CPU and/or the USB block.
The PLL0 input, in the range of 32 kHz to 25 MHz, may initially be divided down by a
value ‘N’, which may be in the range of 1 to 256. This input division provides a wide range
of output frequencies from the same input frequency.
Following the PLL0 input divider is the PLL0 multiplier. This can multiply the input divider
output through the use of a Current Controlled Oscillator (CCO) by a value ‘M’, in the
range of 1 through 32768. The resulting frequency must be in the range of 275 MHz to
550 MHz. The multiplier works by dividing the CCO output by the value of M, then using a
phase-frequency detector to compare the divided CCO output to the multiplier input. The
error value is used to adjust the CCO frequency.
The PLL0 is turned off and bypassed following a chip Reset and by entering Power-down
mode. PLL0 is enabled by software only. The program must configure and activate the
PLL0, wait for the PLL0 to lock, and then connect to the PLL0 as a clock source.
8.29.3 USB PLL (PLL1)
The LPC17xx contain a second, dedicated USB PLL1 to provide clocking for the USB
interface.
The PLL1 receives its clock input from the main oscillator only and provides a fixed
48 MHz clock to the USB block only. The PLL1 is disabled and powered off on reset. If the
PLL1 is left disabled, the USB clock will be supplied by the 48 MHz clock from the main
PLL0.
The PLL1 accepts an input clock frequency in the range of 10 MHz to 25 MHz only. The
input frequency is multiplied up the range of 48 MHz for the USB clock using a Current
Controlled Oscillators (CCO). It is insured that the PLL1 output has a 50 % duty cycle.
8.29.4 RTC clock output
The LPC17xx feature a clock output function intended for synchronizing with external
devices and for use during system development to allow checking the internal clocks
CCLK, IRC clock, main crystal, RTC clock, and USB clock in the outside world. The RTC
clock output allows tuning the RTC frequency without probing the pin, which would distort
the results.
8.29.5 Wake-up timer
The LPC17xx begin operation at power-up and when awakened from Power-down mode
by using the 4 MHz IRC oscillator as the clock source. This allows chip operation to
resume quickly. If the main oscillator or the PLL is needed by the application, software will
need to enable these features and wait for them to stabilize before they are used as a
clock source.
When the main oscillator is initially activated, the wake-up timer allows software to ensure
that the main oscillator is fully functional before the processor uses it as a clock source
and starts to execute instructions. This is important at power on, all types of Reset, and LPC1769_68_67_66_65_64_63 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.
Product data sheet Rev. 9.5 — 24 June 2014 39 of 89
NXP Semiconductors LPC1769/68/67/66/65/64/63
32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 microcontroller
whenever any of the aforementioned functions are turned off for any reason. Since the
oscillator and other functions are turned off during Power-down mode, any wake-up of the
processor from Power-down mode makes use of the wake-up timer.
The Wake-up Timer monitors the crystal oscillator to check whether it is safe to begin
code execution. When power is applied to the chip, or when some event caused the chip
to exit Power-down mode, some time is required for the oscillator to produce a signal of
sufficient amplitude to drive the clock logic. The amount of time depends on many factors,
including the rate of VDD(3V3) ramp (in the case of power on), the type of crystal and its
electrical characteristics (if a quartz crystal is used), as well as any other external circuitry
(e.g., capacitors), and the characteristics of the oscillator itself under the existing ambient
conditions.
8.29.6 Power control
The LPC17xx support a variety of power control features. There are four special modes of
processor power reduction: Sleep mode, Deep-sleep mode, Power-down mode, and
Deep power-down mode. The CPU clock rate may also be controlled as needed by
changing clock sources, reconfiguring PLL values, and/or altering the CPU clock divider
value. This allows a trade-off of power versus processing speed based on application
requirements. In addition, Peripheral Power Control allows shutting down the clocks to
individual on-chip peripherals, allowing fine tuning of power consumption by eliminating all
dynamic power use in any peripherals that are not required for the application. Each of the
peripherals has its own clock divider which provides even better power control.
Integrated PMU (Power Management Unit) automatically adjust internal regulators to
minimize power consumption during Sleep, Deep sleep, Power-down, and Deep
power-down modes.
The LPC17xx also implement a separate power domain to allow turning off power to the
bulk of the device while maintaining operation of the RTC and a small set of registers for
storing data during any of the power-down modes.
8.29.6.1 Sleep mode
When Sleep mode is entered, the clock to the core is stopped. Resumption from the Sleep
mode does not need any special sequence but re-enabling the clock to the ARM core.
In Sleep mode, execution of instructions is suspended until either a Reset or interrupt
occurs. Peripheral functions continue operation during Sleep mode and may generate
interrupts to cause the processor to resume execution. Sleep mode eliminates dynamic
power used by the processor itself, memory systems and related controllers, and internal
buses.
8.29.6.2 Deep-sleep mode
In Deep-sleep mode, the oscillator is shut down and the chip receives no internal clocks.
The processor state and registers, peripheral registers, and internal SRAM values are
preserved throughout Deep-sleep mode and the logic levels of chip pins remain static.
The output of the IRC is disabled but the IRC is not powered down for a fast wake-up later.
The RTC oscillator is not stopped because the RTC interrupts may be used as the
wake-up source. The PLL is automatically turned off and disconnected. The CCLK and
USB clock dividers automatically get reset to zero.LPC1769_68_67_66_65_64_63 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.
Product data sheet Rev. 9.5 — 24 June 2014 40 of 89
NXP Semiconductors LPC1769/68/67/66/65/64/63
32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 microcontroller
The Deep-sleep mode can be terminated and normal operation resumed by either a
Reset or certain specific interrupts that are able to function without clocks. Since all
dynamic operation of the chip is suspended, Deep-sleep mode reduces chip power
consumption to a very low value. Power to the flash memory is left on in Deep-sleep
mode, allowing a very quick wake-up.
On wake-up from Deep-sleep mode, the code execution and peripherals activities will
resume after 4 cycles expire if the IRC was used before entering Deep-sleep mode. If the
main external oscillator was used, the code execution will resume when 4096 cycles
expire. PLL and clock dividers need to be reconfigured accordingly.
8.29.6.3 Power-down mode
Power-down mode does everything that Deep-sleep mode does, but also turns off the
power to the IRC oscillator and the flash memory. This saves more power but requires
waiting for resumption of flash operation before execution of code or data access in the
flash memory can be accomplished.
On the wake-up of Power-down mode, if the IRC was used before entering Power-down
mode, it will take IRC 60 s to start-up. After this 4 IRC cycles will expire before the code
execution can then be resumed if the code was running from SRAM. In the meantime, the
flash wake-up timer then counts 4 MHz IRC clock cycles to make the 100 s flash start-up
time. When it times out, access to the flash will be allowed. Users need to reconfigure the
PLL and clock dividers accordingly.
8.29.6.4 Deep power-down mode
The Deep power-down mode can only be entered from the RTC block. In Deep
power-down mode, power is shut off to the entire chip with the exception of the RTC
module and the RESET pin.
The LPC17xx can wake up from Deep power-down mode via the RESET pin or an alarm
match event of the RTC.
8.29.6.5 Wake-up interrupt controller
The Wake-up Interrupt Controller (WIC) allows the CPU to automatically wake up from
any enabled priority interrupt that can occur while the clocks are stopped in Deep sleep,
Power-down, and Deep power-down modes.
The WIC works in connection with the Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller (NVIC). When
the CPU enters Deep sleep, Power-down, or Deep power-down mode, the NVIC sends a
mask of the current interrupt situation to the WIC.This mask includes all of the interrupts
that are both enabled and of sufficient priority to be serviced immediately. With this
information, the WIC simply notices when one of the interrupts has occurred and then it
wakes up the CPU.
The WIC eliminates the need to periodically wake up the CPU and poll the interrupts
resulting in additional power savings.
8.29.7 Peripheral power control
A Power Control for Peripherals feature allows individual peripherals to be turned off if
they are not needed in the application, resulting in additional power savings. LPC1769_68_67_66_65_64_63 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.

32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 microcontroller
8.29.8 Power domains
The LPC17xx provide two independent power domains that allow the bulk of the device to
have power removed while maintaining operation of the RTC and the backup Registers.
On the LPC17xx, I/O pads are powered by the 3.3 V (VDD(3V3)) pins, while the
VDD(REG)(3V3) pin powers the on-chip voltage regulator which in turn provides power to the
CPU and most of the peripherals.
Depending on the LPC17xx application, a design can use two power options to manage
power consumption.
The first option assumes that power consumption is not a concern and the design ties the
VDD(3V3) and VDD(REG)(3V3) pins together. This approach requires only one 3.3 V power
supply for both pads, the CPU, and peripherals. While this solution is simple, it does not
support powering down the I/O pad ring “on the fly” while keeping the CPU and
peripherals alive.
The second option uses two power supplies; a 3.3 V supply for the I/O pads (VDD(3V3)) and
a dedicated 3.3 V supply for the CPU (VDD(REG)(3V3)). Having the on-chip voltage regulator
powered independently from the I/O pad ring enables shutting down of the I/O pad power
supply “on the fly”, while the CPU and peripherals stay active.
The VBAT pin supplies power only to the RTC domain. The RTC requires a minimum of
power to operate, which can be supplied by an external battery. The device core power
(VDD(REG)(3V3)) is used to operate the RTC whenever VDD(REG)(3V3) is present. Therefore,
there is no power drain from the RTC battery when VDD(REG)(3V3) is available. LPC1769_68_67_66_65_64_63 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.

8.30 System control
8.30.1 Reset
Reset has four sources on the LPC17xx: the RESET pin, the Watchdog reset, power-on
reset (POR), and the BrownOut Detection (BOD) circuit. The RESET pin is a Schmitt
trigger input pin. Assertion of chip Reset by any source, once the operating voltage attains
a usable level, causes the RSTOUT pin to go LOW and starts the wake-up timer (see
description in Section 8.29.5). The wake-up timer ensures that reset remains asserted
until the external Reset is de-asserted, the oscillator is running, a fixed number of clocks
have passed, and the flash controller has completed its initialization. Once reset is
de-asserted, or, in case of a BOD-triggered reset, once the voltage rises above the BOD
threshold, the RSTOUT pin goes HIGH.
When the internal Reset is removed, the processor begins executing at address 0, which
is initially the Reset vector mapped from the Boot Block. At that point, all of the processor
and peripheral registers have been initialized to predetermined values.

8.30.2 Brownout detection
The LPC17xx include 2-stage monitoring of the voltage on the VDD(REG)(3V3) pins. If this
voltage falls below 2.2 V, the BOD asserts an interrupt signal to the Vectored Interrupt
Controller. This signal can be enabled for interrupt in the Interrupt Enable Register in the
NVIC in order to cause a CPU interrupt; if not, software can monitor the signal by reading
a dedicated status register.
The second stage of low-voltage detection asserts reset to inactivate the LPC17xx when
the voltage on the VDD(REG)(3V3) pins falls below 1.85 V. This reset prevents alteration of
the flash as operation of the various elements of the chip would otherwise become
unreliable due to low voltage. The BOD circuit maintains this reset down below 1 V, at
which point the power-on reset circuitry maintains the overall reset.
Both the 2.2 V and 1.85 V thresholds include some hysteresis. In normal operation, this
hysteresis allows the 2.2 V detection to reliably interrupt, or a regularly executed event
loop to sense the condition.
8.30.3 Code security (Code Read Protection - CRP)
This feature of the LPC17xx allows user to enable different levels of security in the system
so that access to the on-chip flash and use of the JTAG and ISP can be restricted. When
needed, CRP is invoked by programming a specific pattern into a dedicated flash location.
IAP commands are not affected by the CRP.
There are three levels of the Code Read Protection.
CRP1 disables access to chip via the JTAG and allows partial flash update (excluding
flash sector 0) using a limited set of the ISP commands. This mode is useful when CRP is
required and flash field updates are needed but all sectors can not be erased.
CRP2 disables access to chip via the JTAG and only allows full flash erase and update
using a reduced set of the ISP commands.
Running an application with level CRP3 selected fully disables any access to chip via the
JTAG pins and the ISP. This mode effectively disables ISP override using P2[10] pin, too.
It is up to the user’s application to provide (if needed) flash update mechanism using IAP
calls or call reinvoke ISP command to enable flash update via UART0.
8.30.4 APB interface
The APB peripherals are split into two separate APB buses in order to distribute the bus
bandwidth and thereby reducing stalls caused by contention between the CPU and the
GPDMA controller.
CAUTION
If level three Code Read Protection (CRP3) is selected, no future factory testing can be
performed on the device.LPC1769_68_67_66_65_64_63 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.

8.30.5 AHB multilayer matrix
The LPC17xx use an AHB multilayer matrix. This matrix connects the instruction (I-code)
and data (D-code) CPU buses of the ARM Cortex-M3 to the flash memory, the main
(32 kB) static RAM, and the Boot ROM. The GPDMA can also access all of these
memories. The peripheral DMA controllers, Ethernet, and USB can access all SRAM
blocks. Additionally, the matrix connects the CPU system bus and all of the DMA
controllers to the various peripheral functions.
8.30.6 External interrupt inputs
The LPC17xx include up to 46 edge sensitive interrupt inputs combined with up to four
level sensitive external interrupt inputs as selectable pin functions. The external interrupt
inputs can optionally be used to wake up the processor from Power-down mode.
8.30.7 Memory mapping control
The Cortex-M3 incorporates a mechanism that allows remapping the interrupt vector table
to alternate locations in the memory map. This is controlled via the Vector Table Offset
Register contained in the NVIC.
The vector table may be located anywhere within the bottom 1 GB of Cortex-M3 address
space. The vector table must be located on a 128 word (512 byte) boundary because the
NVIC on the LPC17xx is configured for 128 total interrupts.
8.31 Emulation and debugging
Debug and trace functions are integrated into the ARM Cortex-M3. Serial wire debug and
trace functions are supported in addition to a standard JTAG debug and parallel trace
functions. The ARM Cortex-M3 is configured to support up to eight breakpoints and four
watch points.LPC1769_68_67_66_65_64_63 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.

10. Thermal characteristics
The average chip junction temperature, Tj (C), can be calculated using the following
equation:
(1)
• Tamb = ambient temperature (C)
• Rth(j-a) = the package junction-to-ambient thermal resistance (C/W)
• PD = sum of internal and I/O power dissipation
The internal power dissipation is the product of IDD and VDD. The I/O power dissipation of
the I/O pins is often small and many times can be negligible. However it can be significant
in some applications.

Flag (PSF) feature and read protection of the memory content.
The UCODE G2iM+ offers on top of the UCODE G2iM features an integrated tag tamper
alarm, digital switch, external supply mode, data transfer mode and real read range
reduction. A special feature is the conditional, automatic real read range reduction, where
the activation condition can be defined by the user, is newly introduced in the UCODE
G2iM+. When connected to a power supply, the READ as well as the WRITE range can
be boosted to a sensitivity of 27 dBm.
The UCODE G2iM+ also allows the segmentation of the 640 bit User Memory in up to
three segments (open, protected, private) with different access levels (Access- and User
Password). For applications which require a longer EPC number the UCODE G2iM+
offers the possibility of up to 448 bit.

10. Functional description
10.1 Air interface standards
The UCODE G2iM fully supports all parts of the "Specification for RFID Air Interface
EPCglobal, EPCTM Radio-Frequency Identity Protocols, Class-1 Generation-2 UHF
RFID, Protocol for Communications at 860 MHz to 960 MHz, Version 1.2.0".
10.2 Power transfer
The interrogator provides an RF field that powers the tag, equipped with a UCODE G2iM.
The antenna transforms the impedance of free space to the chip input impedance in order
to get the maximum possible power for the UCODE G2iM on the tag. The UCODE G2iM+
can also be supplied externally.
The RF field, which is oscillating on the operating frequency provided by the interrogator,
is rectified to provide a smoothed DC voltage to the analog and digital modules of the IC.
The antenna attached to the chip may use a DC connection between the two antenna
pads which also enables loop antenna design.
10.3 Data transfer
10.3.1 Reader to tag Link
An interrogator transmits information to the UCODE G2iM by modulating an UHF RF
signal. The UCODE G2iM receives both information and operating energy from this RF
signal. Tags are passive, meaning that they receive all of their operating energy from the
interrogator's RF waveform. In order to further improve the read range the UCODE G2iM
can be externally supplied as well so the energy to operate the chip does not need to be
transmitted by the reader.
An interrogator is using a fixed modulation and data rate for the duration of at least one
inventory round. It communicates to the UCODE G2iM by modulating an RF carrier using
DSB-ASK with PIE encoding.
For further details refer to Section 17, Ref. 1. Interrogator-to-tag (R=>T) communications.
10.3.2 Tag to reader Link
An interrogator receives information from a UCODE G2iM by transmitting an unmodulated
RF carrier and listening for a backscattered reply. The UCODE G2iM backscatters by
switching the reflection coefficient of its antenna between two states in accordance with
the data being sent. For further details refer to Section 17, Ref. 1, chapter 6.3.1.3.
The UCODE G2iM communicates information by backscatter-modulating the amplitude
and/or phase of the RF carrier. Interrogators shall be capable of demodulating either
demodulation type.
The encoding format, selected in response to interrogator commands, is either FM0
baseband or Miller-modulated subcarrier.SL3S1003_1013 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.

10.6 UCODE G2iM and UCODE G2iM+ memory
The UCODE G2iM and UCODE G2iM+ memory is implemented according EPCglobal
Class1Gen2 and organized in four banks:
The logical address of all memory banks begin at zero (00h).
In addition to the four memory banks two configuration words are available. The first to
handle the UCODE G2iM memory configuration (Mem-Config-Word) is available at EPC
bank 01 address 1F0h and the second to handle UCODE G2iM specific features
Config-Word) is available at EPC bank 01 address 200h. The configuration words are
described in detail in Section 10.7.1 “ChangeConfig” and Section 10.7.3 “UCODE G2iM+
memory configuration control mechanism”.
Memory pages (16 bit words) pre-programmed to zero will not execute an erase cycle
before writing data to it. This approach accelerates initialization of the chip and enables
faster programming of the memory.

10.7 Custom commands
The UCODE G2iM and UCODE G2iM+ supports a number of additional features and
custom commands. Nevertheless, the chip is designed in a way standard EPCglobal
READ/WRITE/ACCESS commands can be used to operate the features.
The memory map stated in the previous section describes the Config-Word used to
control the additional features located at address 200h as well as the Mem-Config-Word
located at 1F0h of the EPC memory. For this reason the standard READ/WRITE
commands of an UHF EPCglobal compliant reader can be used to select the flags,
activate/deactivate features or define memory segments.
The features can only be activated/deactivated (written) using standard EPC WRITE
command as long the EPC is not locked. In case the EPC is locked either the bank needs
to be unlocked to apply changes or the ChangeConfig custom command is used to
change the settings.
The UCODE G2iM products supports the complete UCODE G2iL command set for
backward compatibility reasons.
Bit 14h of the TID indicates the existence of a Configuration Word. This flag will enable
selecting Config-Word enhanced transponders in mixed tag populations.
10.7.1 ChangeConfig
Although UCODE G2iM is tailored for supply chain management, item level tagging and
product authentication the UCODE G2iM+ version enables active interaction with
products. Among the password protected features are the capability of download firmware
to electronics, activate/deactivate electronics which can also be used as theft deterrence,
a dedicated privacy mode by reducing the read range, integrated PSF (Product Status
Flag) or Tag Tamper Alarm. In addition to the UCODE G2iL/G2iL+ the activation condition
(open/short) for the Read Range Reduction can be defined by the user.
The UCODE G2iM ChangeConfig custom command allows handling the special NXP
Semiconductors features described in the following paragraph. Please also see the
memory map in Section 10.6 “UCODE G2iM and UCODE G2iM+ memory” and “Section
10.7.2 “UCODE G2iM and UCODE G2iM+ special features control mechanism”. If the
EPC memory is not write locked the standard EPC READ/WRITE command can be used
to change the settings.
UCODE G2iM and UCODE G2iM+ special features1
UCODE G2iM and UCODE G2iM+ common special features are:
• Bank wise read protection (separate for EPC, TID and User Memory)
EPC bank (except of configuration words), the serial number part of the TID as well as
the User TID and the User Memory (open segment) can be read protected
independently. When protected reading of the particular memory will return '0'. The
flags of the Config-Word can be selected using the standard SELECT command. Only
read protected parts will then participate an inventory round.
1. The features can only be manipulated (enabled/disabled) with unlocked EPC bank, otherwise the ChangeConfig command can be
used.SL3S1003_1013 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.

UCODE G2iM and G2iM+
• Integrated PSF (Product Status Flag)
The PSF is a general purpose flag that can be used as an EAS (Electronic Article
Surveillance) flag, quality checked flag or similar.
The UCODE G2iM offers two ways of detecting an activated PSF. In cases extremely
fast detection is needed the EAS_Alarm command can be used. The UCODE G2iM
will reply a 64 bit alarm code like described in section EAS_Alarm upon sending the
command. As a second option the EPC SELECT command selecting the PSF flag of
the Config-Word can be used. In the following inventory round only PSF enabled
chips will reply their EPC number.
• Backscatter strength reduction
The UCODE G2iM features two levels of backscatter strengths. Per default maximum
backscatter is enabled in order to enable maximum read rates. When clearing the flag
the strength can be reduced if needed.
UCODE G2iM+ specific special features are:1
• Real Read Range Reduction 4R (UCODE G2iM+ only)
Some applications require the reduction of the read range to close proximity for
privacy reasons. Setting the 4R flag will significantly reduce the chip sensitivity to
+12 dBm. The +12 dBm have to be available at chip start up (slow increase of field
strength is not applicable). For additional privacy, the read protection can be activated
in the same configuration step. The related flag of the configuration word can be
selected using the standard SELECT command so only chips with reduced read
range will be part of an inventory.
Remark: The attenuation will result in only a few centimeter of read range at 36 dBm
EIRP!
• Tag Tamper Alarm (UCODE G2iM+ only)
The UCODE G2iM+ Tamper Alarm will flag the status of the VDD to OUT pad
connection which can be designed as an predetermined breaking point (see
Figure 6).
The status of the pad connection (open/closed) can be read in the configuration register
and/or selected using the EPC SELECT. This feature enables the design of a wireless
RFID safety seal. When breaking the connection by peeling off the label or manipulating a
lock an alarm can be triggered.

UCODE G2iM and G2iM+
• Conditional Real Read Range Reduction (UCODE G2iM+ only)
In addition to the 4R and the Tag Tamper Alarm feature the UCODE G2iM+ offers a
feature which combines both in one functionality. This feature allow the automatic
activation of the 4R depending on the status of the VDD to OUT pad connection. To
offer high flexibility for the applications the 4R activation can be done on short (bit 8 =
’1’) or open (bit 8 =’0’) of the VDD to OUT pad connection. For activation of this
feature bit 7 and bit 11 of the Config-Word have to be set to ’1’.
• Digital Switch (UCODE G2iM+ only)
The UCODE G2iM+ OUT pin can be used as digital switch. The state of the output
pad can be switched to VDD or GND depending on the Digital OUT bit of the
Config-Word register. The state of the output is persistent in the memory even after
KILL or switching off the supply. This feature will allow activating/deactivating
externally connected peripherals or can be used as theft deterrence of electronics.
The state of the OUT pin can also be changed temporary by toggling the 'Invert Digital
Output' bit.
• Data transfer Mode (UCODE G2iM+ only)
In applications where not switching the output like described in "Digital Switch" but
external device communication is needed the UCODE G2iM+ Data Transfer Mode
can be used by setting the according bit of the Config-Word register. When activated
the air interface communication will be directly transferred to the OUT pad of the chip.
Two modes of data transfer are available and can be switched using the Transparent
Mode DATA/RAW bit.
The default Transparent Mode DATA will remove the Frame Sync of the
communication and toggle the output with every raising edge in the RF field. This will
allow implementing a Manchester type of data transmission.
The Transparent Mode RAW will switch the demodulated air interface communication
to the OUT pad.
• External Supply Indicator - Digital Input (UCODE G2iM+ only)
The VDD pad of the UCODE G2iM+ can be used as a digital input pin. The state of
the pad is directly associated with the External Supply Indicator bit of the configuration
register. A simple return signaling (chip to reader) can be implemented by polling this
Configuration Word register flag. RF reset is necessary for proper polling.
• External Supply Mode (G2iM+ only)
The UCODE G2iM+ can be supplied externally by connecting 1.85 V (Iout = 0µA)
supply. When externally supplied less energy from the RF field is needed to operate
the chip. This will not just enable further improved sensitivity and read ranges (up to
-27 dBm) but also enable a write range that is equal to the read range.
The figure schematically shows the supply connected to the UCODE G2iM+.
Remark: When permanently externally supplied there will not be a power-on-reset. This
will result in the following limitations:
• When externally supplied session flag S0 will keep it’s state during RF-OFF phase.
• When externally supplied session flag S2, S3, SL will have infinite persistence time
and will behave similar to S0.
• Session flag S1 will behave regular like in pure passive operation.SL3S1003_1013 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.

UCODE G2iM and G2iM+
The features can only be activated/deactivated using standard EPC WRITE if the EPC
bank is unlocked. The permanent and temporary bits of the Configuration Word can be
toggled without the need for an Access Password in case the Access Password is set to
zero. In case the EPC bank is locked the lock needs to be removed before applying
changes or the ChangeConfig command has to be used.
10.7.2 UCODE G2iM and UCODE G2iM+ special features control mechanism
Special features of the UCODE G2iM are managed using a configuration word
(Config-Word) located at address 200h in the EPC memory bank.
The entire Config-Word is selectable (using the standard EPC SELECT command), as
well as single bits, and can be read using standard EPC READ command and modified
using the standard EPC WRITE or ChangeConfig custom command in case the EPC
memory is locked for writing.
ChangeConfig can be executed from the OPEN and SECURED state.
The chip will take all “Toggle Bits” for ’0’ if the chip is in the OPEN state or the ACCESS
password is zero; therefore it will not alter any status bits, but report the current status
only. The command will be ignored with an invalid CRC-16 or an invalid handle. The chip
will then remain in the current state. The CRC-16 is calculated from the first
command-code bit to the last handle bit.
A ChangeConfig command without frame-sync and proceeding Req_RN will be ignored.
The command will also be ignored if any of the RFU bits are toggled.
In order to change the configuration, to activate/deactivate a feature a ’1’ has to be written
to the corresponding register flag to toggle the status. E.g. sending 0x0002 to the register
will activate the read protection of the TID. Sending the same command a second time will
again clear the read protection of the TID. Invalid toggling on indicator or RFU bits are
ignored.
Executing the command with zero as payload or in the OPEN state will return the current
register settings. The chip will reply to a successful ChangeStatus with an extended
preamble regardless of the TRext value of the Query command.
After sending a ChangeConfig an interrogator shall transmit CW for less than TReply or
20ms, where TReply is the time between the interrogator's ChangeConfig command and
the chip’s backscattered reply. An interrogator may observe three possible responses
after sending a ChangeConfig, depending on the success or failure of the operation
• ChangeConfig succeeded: The chip will backscatter the reply shown above
comprising a header (a 0-bit), the current Config-Word setting, the handle, and a
CRC-16 calculated over the 0-bit, the Config-Word and the handle. If the interrogator
observes this reply within 20 ms then the ChangeConfig completed successfully.
• The chip encounters an error: The chip will backscatter an error code during the CW
period rather than the reply shown below (see EPCglobal Spec for error-code
definitions and for the reply format).
• ChangeConfig does not succeed: If the interrogator does not observe a reply within
20 ms then the ChangeConfig did not complete successfully. The interrogator may
issue a Req_RN command (containing the handle) to verify that the chip is still in the
interrogator's field, and may reissue the ChangeConfig command.SL3S1003_1013 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.

10.7.3 UCODE G2iM+ memory configuration control mechanism
The segmented user memory available in the UCODE G2iM+ enables a flexible
configuration of the device with respect to EPC size and access rights to the User
Memory.
The standard configuration offers 256 bit EPC memory and 512 bit open User Memory for
UCODE G2iM and 128 bit EPC memory and 640 bit open User Memory for UCODE
G2iM+. For applications where more EPC memory is required the UCODE G2iM+ offers
the flexibility to extend the 128 bit EPC up to 448 bit (in steps of 64 bit) by reducing the
User Memory size accordingly. See Table 15 and Table 17.
Beside the possibility to extend the EPC memory the UCDOE G2iM+ offers the possibility
to segment the User Memory in up to three areas with different access rights.
• Open: no read/write protection
• Protected: read/write protected by the Access Password
• Private: read/write protected by the User Password (see Section 10.7.4)

UCODE G2iM and G2iM+
The memory configuration can be defined one time, by programming the memory
configuration word, at the initialization of the UCODE G2iM+. The UCODE G2iM+
Memory Configuration Word (Mem-Config-Word) is located at address 1F0h of the EPC
memory and is structured as following:
• RFU-Bits:
The four RFU bits are fixed to 0000b. These four bits are ignored for access
commands (e.g. WRITE).
• Number of EPC blocks:
The 4 bit of this region specify the number of blocks (max. 5) which should be added
on top of the standard EPC Memory of 128bit.
• Number of Protected memory blocks:
The 4 bit of this region specify the number of blocks which should be used for the
Protected memory region.
• Number of Private memory blocks:
The 4 bit of this region specify the number of blocks which should be used for the
Private memory region.
The total amount of User Memory is defined by the number of blocks for EPC-, Open-,
Protected- and Private- memory area. Based on the total User Memory size (640 bit) and
the defined block size of 64 bit, the overall number of blocks results in ten blocks. As
described in the examples (Table 19 to Table 21) below the blocks used for the EPC-,
Open-, Protected- or Private segment can be exchanged according to the application
requirements as long as the overall block number is below ten.
The number of blocks allocated to the Open Memory Area are defined by the number of
blocks specified in the Mem-Config-Word, therefore the size of the Open Memory area is
derived by subtracting the number of defined blocks (Mem-Config-Word) from the total
available number of blocks of the User Memory (10 blocks). Undefined blocks are always
added to the Open Memory area.
In case an invalid total amount of blocks (exceeds ten) is written to the Mem-Config-Word,
the configuration fails and the error code (Locked Memory) will be returned.
The entire Mem-Config-Word is selectable (using the standard EPC SELECT command),
as well as single bits, and can be read using standard EPC READ command and modified
using the standard EPC WRITE command.
NOTE:
THE MEM-CONFIG-WORD IS ONE TIME PROGRAMMABLE.
Programming has be performed in the secured state.
In case no programming of the memory configuration word is done at the initialization of
the UCODE G2iM+ it will be automatically locked upon a lock of any part of the memory.
The following tables will provide a few examples for different memory configurations.

Open memory. (Mem-Config-Word value: 0106h)
See Table 21
10.7.4 Private Memory Segment
The Private memory is a part of the User Memory which can be accessed out of the
secured state only. Private regions will appear as non existent to not authorized users.
The address of the location of the User Password is not fixed and has therefore to be
calculated based on the applied memory configuration.
The 32 bit User Password is located at the end of the User Memory. Since the UCODE
G2iM+ memory is configurable and can be segmented the address location of the User
Password depends on the Memory configuration done at the initialization.
User Password address calculation:
HEX[(Total number of memory blocks - blocks appointed to EPC)*Blocksize)]
Example:
EPC length: 192
This means that 1 block from the User Memory is required (128 bit + 64 bit)
HEX[(101)*64]=HEX[9*64]=HEX[384]=240h
Therefore the User Password for this configuration is located at address 240h to 25Fh

10.7.5 ReadProtect2
The UCODE G2iM ReadProtect custom command enables reliable read protection of the
entire UCODE G2iM memory. Executing ReadProtect from the Secured state will set the
ProtectEPC and ProtectTID bits of the Configuration Word to '1'. With the ReadProtect-Bit
set the UCODE G2iM will continue to work unaffected but veil its protected content.
The read protection can be removed by executing Reset ReadProtect. The
ReadProtect-Bits will than be cleared.
Devices whose access password is zero will ignore the command. A frame-sync must be
pre-pended the command.
After sending the ReadProtect command an interrogator shall transmit CW for the lesser
of TReply or 20 ms, where TReply is the time between the interrogator's ReadProtect
command and the backscattered reply. An interrogator may observe three possible
responses after sending a ReadProtect, depending on the success or failure of the
operation:
• ReadProtect succeeds: After completing the ReadProtect the UCODE G2iM shall
backscatter the reply shown in Table 23 comprising a header (a 0-bit), the tag's
handle, and a CRC-16 calculated over the 0-bit and handle. Immediately after this
reply the UCODE G2iM will render itself to this ReadProtect mode. If the interrogator
observes this reply within 20 ms then the ReadProtect completed successfully.
• The UCODE G2iM encounters an error: The UCODE G2iM will backscatter an error
code during the CW period rather than the reply shown in the EPCglobal Spec (see
Annex I for error-code definitions and for the reply format).
• ReadProtect does not succeed: If the interrogator does not observe a reply within
20 ms then the ReadProtect did not complete successfully. The interrogator may
issue a Req_RN command (containing the handle) to verify that the UCODE G2iM is
still in the interrogation zone, and may re-initiate the ReadProtect command.
The UCODE G2iM reply to the ReadProtect command will use the extended preamble
shown in EPCglobal Spec (Figure 6.11 or Figure 6.15), as appropriate (i.e. a Tag shall
reply as if TRext=1) regardless of the TRext value in the Query that initiated the round.

10.7.6 Reset ReadProtect2
Reset ReadProtect allows an interrogator to clear the ProtectEPC and ProtectTID bits of
the Configuration Word. This will re-enable reading of the related UCODE G2iM memory
content.
For details on the command response please refer to Table 25 “Reset ReadProtect
command”.
After sending a Reset ReadProtect an interrogator shall transmit CW for the lesser of
TReply or 20 ms, where TReply is the time between the interrogator's Reset ReadProtect
command and the UCODE G2iM backscattered reply. A Req_RN command prior to the
Reset ReadProtect is necessary to successfully execute the command. A frame-sync
must be pre-pended the command.
An interrogator may observe three possible responses after sending a Reset
ReadProtect, depending on the success or failure of the operation:
• Reset ReadProtect succeeds: After completing the Reset ReadProtect a UCODE
G2iM will backscatter the reply shown in Table 26 comprising a header (a 0-bit), the
handle, and a CRC-16 calculated over the 0-bit and handle. If the interrogator
observes this reply within 20 ms then the Reset ReadProtect completed successfully.
• The UCODE G2iM encounters an error: The UCODE G2iM will backscatter an error
code during the CW period rather than the reply shown in Table 26 (see EPCglobal
Spec for error-code definitions and for the reply format).
• Reset ReadProtect does not succeed: If the interrogator does not observe a reply
within 20 ms then the Reset ReadProtect did not complete successfully. The
interrogator may issue a Req_RN command (containing the handle) to verify that the
G2iM is still in the interrogation zone, and may reissue the Reset ReadProtect
command.
The UCODE G2iM reply to the Reset ReadProtect command will use the extended
preamble shown in EPCglobal Spec (Figure 6.11 or Figure 6.15), as appropriate (i.e. a

UCODE G2iM and G2iM+
10.7.7 ChangeEAS2
UCODE G2iM equipped RFID tags will also feature a stand-alone operating EAS alarm
mechanism for fast and offline electronic article surveillance. The PSF bit of the
Config-Word directly relates to the EAS Alarm feature. With an PSF bit set to '1' the tag
will reply to an EAS_Alarm command by backscattering a 64 bit alarm code without the
need of a Select or Query. The EAS is a built-in solution so no connection to a backend
database is required. In case the EAS_Alarm command is not implemented in the reader
a standard EPC SELCET to the Config-Word and Query can be used. When using
standard SELECT/QUERY the EPC will be returned during inventory.
ChangeEAS can be executed from the Secured state only. The command will be ignored
if the Access Password is zero, the command will also be ignored with an invalid CRC-16
or an invalid handle, the UCODE G2iM will than remain in the current state. The CRC-16
is calculated from the first command-code bit to the last handle bit. A frame-sync must be
pre-pended the command.
The UCODE G2iM reply to a successful ChangeEAS will use the extended preamble, as
appropriate (i.e. a Tag shall reply as if TRext=1) regardless of the TRext value in the
Query that initiated the round.
After sending a ChangeEAS an interrogator shall transmit CW for less than TReply or
20 ms, where TReply is the time between the interrogator's ChangeEAS command and
the UCODE G2iM backscattered reply. An interrogator may observe three possible
responses after sending a ChangeEAS, depending on the success or failure of the
operation
• ChangeEAS succeeds: After completing the ChangeEAS a UCODE G2iM will
backscatter the reply shown in Table 29 comprising a header (a 0-bit), the handle, and
a CRC-16 calculated over the 0-bit and handle. If the interrogator observes this reply
within
20 ms then the ChangeEAS completed successfully.
• The UCODE G2iM encounters an error: The UCODE G2iM will backscatter an error
code during the CW period rather than the reply shown in Table 29 (see EPCglobal
Spec for error-code definitions and for the reply format).
• ChangeEAS does not succeed: If the interrogator does not observe a reply within
20 ms then the ChangeEAS did not complete successfully. The interrogator may
issue a Req_RN command (containing the handle) to verify that the G2iM is still in the
interrogator's field, and may reissue the ChangeEAS command.
Upon receiving a valid ChangeEAS command a G2iM will perform the commanded
set/reset operation of the PSF bit of the Configuration Word.
If PSF bit is set, the EAS_Alarm command will be available after the next power up and
reply the 64 bit EAS code upon execution. Otherwise the EAS_Alarm command will be
ignored.

10.7.8 EAS_Alarm
Upon receiving an EAS_Alarm custom command the UCODE G2iM will immediately
backscatter an EAS-Alarmcode in case the PSF bit of the Config-Word is set. The alarm
code is returned without any delay caused by Select, Query and without the need for a
backend database.
The EAS feature of the UCODE G2iM is available after enabling it by sending a
ChangeEAS command described in Section 10.7.7 “ChangeEAS2” or after setting the
PSF bit of the Config-Word to ’1’. With the EAS-Alarm enabled the UCODE G2iM will
reply to an EAS_Alarm command by backscattering a fixed 64 bit alarm code. A UCODE
G2iM will reply to an EAS_Alarm command from the ready state only. As an alternative to
the fast EAS_Alarm command a standard SELECT (upon the Config-Word) and QUERY
can be used.
If the PSF bit is reset to '0' by sending a ChangeEAS command in the password protected
Secure state or clearing the PSF bit the UCODE G2iM will not reply to an EAS_Alarm
command.
The EAS_Alarm command is structured as following:
• 16 bit command
• 16 bit inverted command
• DR (TRcal divide ratio) sets the T=>R link frequency as described in EPCglobal Spec.
6.3.1.2.8 and Table 6.9.
• M (cycles per symbol) sets the T=>R data rate and modulation format as shown in
EPCglobal Spec. Table 6.10.
• TRext chooses whether the T=>R preamble is pre-pended with a pilot tone as
described in EPCglobal Spec. 6.3.1.3.
A preamble must be pre-pended the EAS_Alarm command according EPCglobal Spec,
6.3.1.2.8.

Upon receiving an EAS_Alarm command the tag loads the CRC5 register with 01001b
and backscatters the 64 bit alarm code accordingly. The reader is now able to calculate
the CRC5 over the backscattered 64 bits received to verify the received code.

14. Handling information
14.1 Assembly conditions
14.1.1 General assembly recommendations
While pads OUT and VDD are not used for UCODE G2iM (SL3S1003), they are still
electrically active and therefore must not be connected to the antenna and the RFN and
RFP pads.
In case of any doubts, the customer is constrained to contact NXP Semiconductors for
further clarification.
14.1.2 Label converting
Generally, an optimization of the entire lamination process by label manufacturer is
recommended in order to minimize the stress onto the module and guarantee high
assembly yield. Roller diameter must not be smaller than 45 mm.

1. General description
NXP’s UCODE G2iL series transponder ICs offer leading-edge read range and support
industry-first features such as a Tag Tamper Alarm, Data Transfer, Digital Switch, and
advanced privacy-protection modes.
Very high chip sensitivity (18 dBm) enables longer read ranges with simple, single-port
antenna designs. When connected to a power supply, the READ as well as the WRITE
range can be boosted to a sensitivity of 27 dBm. In fashion and retail the UCODE G2iL
series improve read rates and provide for theft deterrence. For consumer electronics the
UCODE G2iL series is suited for device configuration, activation, production control, and
PCB tagging. In authentication applications the transponders can be used to protect
brands and guard against counterfeiting. They can also be used to tag containers,
electronic vehicles, airline baggage, and more.
In addition to the EPC specifications the G2iL offers an integrated Product Status Flag
(PSF) feature and read protection of the memory content.
On top of the G2iL features the G2iL+ offers an integrated tag tamper alarm, RF field

9. Mechanical specification
The UCODE G2iL/G2iL+ wafers are available in 75 m and 120 m thickness. The 75m
thick wafer allows ultra thin label design but require a proper tuning of the glue dispenser
during production. Because of the more robust structure of the 120m wafer, the wafer is
ideal for harsh applications. The 120 m thick wafer is also enhanced with 7m Polyimide
spacer allowing additional protection of the active circuit.

UCODE G2iL and G2iL+
The antenna that is attached to the chip may use a DC connection between the two
antenna pads. Therefore the G2iL also enables loop antenna design. Possible examples
of supported antenna structures can be found in the reference antenna design guide.
10.3 Data transfer
10.3.1 Reader to tag Link
An interrogator transmits information to the UCODE G2iL by modulating an UHF RF
signal. The G2iL receives both information and operating energy from this RF signal. Tags
are passive, meaning that they receive all of their operating energy from the interrogator's
RF waveform. In order to further improve the read range the UCODE G2iL+ can be
externally supplied as well so the energy to operate the chip does not need to be
transmitted by the reader.
An interrogator is using a fixed modulation and data rate for the duration of at least one
inventory round. It communicates to the G2iL by modulating an RF carrier using DSB-ASK
with PIE encoding.
For further details refer to Section 16, Ref. 1. Interrogator-to-tag (R=>T) communications.
10.3.2 Tag to reader Link
An interrogator receives information from a G2iL by transmitting an unmodulated RF
carrier and listening for a backscattered reply. The G2iL backscatters by switching the
reflection coefficient of its antenna between two states in accordance with the data being
sent. For further details refer to Section 16, Ref. 1, chapter 6.3.1.3.
The UCODE G2iL communicates information by backscatter-modulating the amplitude
and/or phase of the RF carrier. Interrogators shall be capable of demodulating either
demodulation type.
The encoding format, selected in response to interrogator commands, is either FM0
baseband or Miller-modulated subcarrier.
10.4 G2iL and G2iL+ differences
The UCODE G2iL is tailored for application where mainly EPC or TID number space is
needed. The G2iL+ in addition provides functionality such as tag tamper alarm, external
supply operation to further boost read/write range (external supply mode), a Privacy mode
reducing the read range or I/O functionality (data transfer to externally connected devices)
required.
The following table provides an overview of G2iL, G2iL+ special features.

• ChangeEAS (backward compatible to G2X)
• EAS_Alarm (backward compatible to G2X)
• ChangeConfig (new with G2iL)
10.6 G2iL, G2iL+ memory
The G2iL, G2iL+ memory is implemented according EPCglobal Class1Gen2 and
organized in three sections:
The logical address of all memory banks begin at zero (00h).
In addition to the three memory banks one configuration word to handle the G2iL specific
features is available at EPC bank 01 address 200h. The configuration word is described in
detail in Section 10.7.1 “ChangeConfig”.
Memory pages (16 bit words) pre-programmed to zero will not execute an erase cycle
before writing data to it. This approach accelerates initialization of the chip and enables
faster programming of the memory.

UCODE G2iL and G2iL+
10.7 Custom commands
The UCODE G2iL, G2iL+ is equipped with a number of additional features and custom
commands.
Nevertheless, the chip is designed in a way standard EPCglobal READ/WRITE/ACCESS
commands can be used to operate the features.
The memory map stated in the previous section describes the Configuration Word used to
control the additional features located at address 200h of the EPC memory. For this
reason the standard READ/WRITE commands of an UHF EPCglobal compliant reader
can be used to select the flags or activate/deactivate features.
The features can only be activated/deactivated (written) using standard EPC WRITE
command as long the EPC is not locked. In case the EPC is locked either the bank needs
to be unlocked to apply changes or the ChangeConfig custom command is used to
change the settings.
The UCODE G2iL is also equipped with the complete UCODE G2X command set for
backward compatibility reasons. Nevertheless, the one ChangeConfig command of the
G2iL can be used instead of the entire G2X command set.
Bit 14h of the TID indicates the existence of a Configuration Word. This flag will enable
selecting Config-Word enhanced transponders in mixed tag populations.
10.7.1 ChangeConfig
Although G2iL is tailored for supply chain management, item level tagging and product
authentication the G2iL+ version enables active interaction with products. Among the
password protected features are the capability of download firmware to electronics,
activate/deactivate electronics which can also be used as theft deterrence, a dedicated
privacy mode by reducing the read range, integrated PSF (Product Status Flag) or Tag
Tamper Alarm.
The G2iL ChangeConfig custom command allows handling the special NXP
Semiconductors features described in the following paragraph. Please also see the
memory map in Section 10.6 “G2iL, G2iL+ memory” and “Section 10.7.2 “G2iL, G2iL+
special features control mechanism”. If the EPC memory is not write locked the standard
EPC READ/WRITE command can be used to change the settings.
G2iL, G2iL+ special features1
UCODE G2iL and G2iL+ common special features are:
• Bank wise read protection (separate for EPC and TID)
EPC bank and the serial number part of the TID can be read protected independently.
When protected reading of the particular memory will return '0'. The flags of the
configuration word can be selected using the standard SELECT2 command. Only
read protected parts will then participate an inventory round. The G2X ReadProtect
command will set both EPC and TID read protect flags.
1. The features can only be manipulated (enabled/disabled) with unlocked EPC bank, otherwise the ChangeConfig command can be
used.
2. SELECT has to be applied onto the Configuration Word with pointer address 200h. Selecting bits within the Configuration Word
using a pointer address not equal to 200h is not possible.SL3S1203_1213 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.

UCODE G2iL and G2iL+
• Integrated PSF (Product Status Flag)
The PSF is a general purpose flag that can be used as an EAS (Electronic Article
Surveillance) flag, quality checked flag or similar.
The G2iL offers two ways of detecting an activated PSF. In cases extremely fast
detection is needed the EAS_Alarm command can be used. The UCODE G2iL will
reply a 64-bit alarm code like described in section EAS_Alarm upon sending the
command. As a second option the EPC SELECT2 command selecting the PSF flag of
the configuration word can be used. In the following inventory round only PSF
enabled chips will reply their EPC number.
• Backscatter strength reduction
The UCODE G2iL features two levels of backscatter strengths. Per default maximum
backscatter is enabled in order to enable maximum read rates. When clearing the flag
the strength can be reduced if needed.
• Real Read Range Reduction 4R
Some applications require the reduction of the read range to close proximity for
privacy reasons. Setting the 4R flag will significantly reduce the chip sensitivity to
+12 dBm. The +12 dBm have to be available at chip start up (slow increase of field
strength is not applicable). For additional privacy, the read protection can be activated
in the same configuration step. The related flag of the configuration word can be
selected using the standard SELECT2 command so only chips with reduced read
range will be part of an inventory.
Remark: The attenuation will result in only a few centimeter of read range at 36 dBm
EIRP!
UCODE G2iL+ specific special features are:1
• Tag Tamper Alarm (G2iL+ only)
The UCODE G2iL+ Tamper Alarm will flag the status of the VDD to OUT pad
connection which can be designed as an predetermined breaking point (see
Figure 6).
The status of the pad connection (open/closed) can be read in the configuration register
and/or selected using the EPC SELECT2. This feature will enable designing a wireless
RFID safety seal. When breaking the connection by peeling off the label or manipulating a
lock an alarm can be triggered.

UCODE G2iL and G2iL+
• RF field detection (G2iL+ only)
The UCODE G2iL+ VDD pin can be also used as a RF field detector. Upon bringing
the tag within an RF field, a pulse signal will be immediately sent from the VDD test
pad. (for details see Ref. 21).
• Digital Switch (G2iL+ only)
The UCODE G2iL+ OUT pin can be used as digital switch. The state of the output pad
can be switched to VDD or GND depending on the Digital OUT bit of the Configuration
Word register. The state of the output is persistent in the memory even after KILL or
switching off the supply. This feature will allow activating/deactivating externally
connected peripherals or can be used as theft deterrence of electronics.
The state of the OUT pin can also be changed temporary by toggling the 'Invert Digital
Output' bit.
• Data transfer Mode (G2iL+ only)
In applications where not switching the output like described in "Digital Switch" but
external device communication is needed the G2iL+ Data Transfer Mode can be used
by setting the according bit of the Configuration Word register. When activated the air
interface communication will be directly transferred to the OUT pad of the chip.
Two modes of data transfer are available and can be switched using the Transparent
Mode DATA/RAW bit.
The default Transparent Mode DATA will remove the Frame Sync of the
communication and toggle the output with every raising edge in the RF field. This will
allow implementing a Manchester type of data transmission.
The Transparent Mode RAW will switch the demodulated air interface communication
to the OUT pad.
• External Supply Indicator - Digital Input (G2iL+ only)
The VDD pad of the UCODE G2iL+ can be used as a single bit digital input pin. The
state of the pad is directly associated with the External Supply Indicator bit of the
configuration register. Simple one bit return signaling (chip to reader) can be
implemented by polling this Configuration Word register flag. RF reset is necessary
for proper polling.
• External Supply Mode (G2iL+ only)
The UCODE G2iL+ can be supplied externally by connecting 1.85 V (Iout = 0µA)
supply. When externally supplied less energy from the RF field is needed to operate
the chip. This will not just enable further improved sensitivity and read ranges (up to
27 dBm) but also enable a write range that is equal to the read range.
The figure schematically shows the supply connected to the UCODE G2iL+.
Remark: When permanently externally supplied there will not be a power-on-reset. This
will result in the following limitations:
• When externally supplied session flag S0 will keep it’s state during RF-OFF phase.
• When externally supplied session flag S2, S3, SL will have infinite persistence time
and will behave similar to S0.
• Session flag S1 will behave regular like in pure passive operation.SL3S1203_1213 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.

UCODE G2iL and G2iL+
The features can only be activated/deactivated using standard EPC WRITE if the EPC
bank is unlocked. The permanent and temporary bits of the Configuration Word can be
toggled without the need for an ACCESS password in case the ACCESS password is set
to zero. In case the EPC bank is locked the lock needs to be removed before applying
changes or the ChangeConfig command has to be used.
10.7.2 G2iL, G2iL+ special features control mechanism
Special features of the G2iL are managed using a configuration word (Config-Word)
located at address 200h in the EPC memory bank.
The entire Config-Word is selectable (using the standard EPC SELECT2 command) and
can be read using standard EPC READ command and modified using the standard EPC
WRITE or ChangeConfig custom command in case the EPC memory is locked for writing.
ChangeConfig can be executed from the OPEN and SECURED state.
The chip will take all “Toggle Bits” for ’0’ if the chip is in the OPEN state or the ACCESS
password is zero; therefore it will not alter any status bits, but report the current status
only. The command will be ignored with an invalid CRC-16 or an invalid handle. The chip
will then remain in the current state. The CRC-16 is calculated from the first
command-code bit to the last handle bit.
A ChangeConfig command without frame-sync and proceeding Req_RN will be ignored.
The command will also be ignored if any of the RFU bits are toggled.
In order to change the configuration, to activate/deactivate a feature a ’1’ has to be written
to the corresponding register flag to toggle the status. E.g. sending 0x0002 to the register
will activate the read protection of the TID. Sending the same command a second time will
again clear the read protection of the TID. Invalid toggling on indicator or RFU bits are
ignored.
Executing the command with zero as payload or in the OPEN state will return the current
register settings. The chip will reply to a successful ChangeConfig with an extended
preamble regardless of the TRext value of the Query command.
After sending a ChangeConfig an interrogator shall transmit CW for less than TReply or
20 ms, where TReply is the time between the interrogator's ChangeConfig command and
the chip’s backscattered reply. An interrogator may observe three possible responses
after sending a ChangeConfig, depending on the success or failure of the operation
• ChangeConfigChangeConfig succeeded: The chip will backscatter the reply shown
above comprising a header (a 0-bit), the current Status Word setting, the handle, and
a CRC-16 calculated over the 0-bit, the status word and the handle. If the interrogator
observes this reply within 20 ms then the ChangeConfig completed successfully.
• The chip encounters an error: The chip will backscatter an error code during the CW
period rather than the reply shown below (see EPCglobal Spec for error-code
definitions and for the reply format).
• ChangeConfig does not succeed: If the interrogator does not observe a reply within
20 ms then the ChangeStatus did not complete successfully. The interrogator may
issue a Req_RN command (containing the handle) to verify that the chip is still in the
interrogator's field, and may reissue the ChangeConfig command.
The G2iL configuration word is located at address 200h of the EPC memory and is
structured as following:SL3S1203_1213 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP Semiconductors N.V. 2014. All rights reserved.

10.7.3 ReadProtect3
The G2iL ReadProtect custom command enables reliable read protection of the entire

ProtectTID bits of the Configuration Word to '1'. With the ReadProtect-Bit set the G2iL will
continue to work unaffected but veil its protected content.
The read protection can be removed by executing Reset ReadProtect. The
ReadProtect-Bits will than be cleared.
Devices whose access password is zero will ignore the command. A frame-sync must be
pre-pended the command.
After sending the ReadProtect command an interrogator shall transmit CW for the lesser

• ReadProtect succeeds: After completing the ReadProtect the G2iL shall backscatter
the reply shown in Table 15 comprising a header (a 0-bit), the tag's handle, and a
CRC-16 calculated over the 0-bit and handle. Immediately after this reply the G2iL will
render itself to this ReadProtect mode. If the interrogator observes this reply within
20 ms then the ReadProtect completed successfully.
• The G2iL encounters an error: The G2iL will backscatter an error code during the CW
period rather than the reply shown in the EPCglobal Spec (see Annex I for error-code
definitions and for the reply format).
• ReadProtect does not succeed: If the interrogator does not observe a reply within
20 ms then the ReadProtect did not complete successfully. The interrogator may
issue a Req_RN command (containing the handle) to verify that the G2iL is still in the
interrogation zone, and may re-initiate the ReadProtect command.
The G2iL reply to the ReadProtect command will use the extended preamble shown in
EPCglobal Spec (Figure 6.11 or Figure 6.15), as appropriate (i.e. a Tag shall reply as if
TRext=1) regardless of the TRext value in the Query that initiated the round.
10.7.4 Reset ReadProtect3
Reset ReadProtect allows an interrogator to clear the ProtectEPC and ProtectTID bits of
the Configuration Word. This will re-enable reading of the related G2iL memory content.

ReadProtect, depending on the success or failure of the operation:
• Reset ReadProtect succeeds: After completing the Reset ReadProtect a G2iL will
backscatter the reply shown in Table 18 comprising a header (a 0-bit), the handle, and
a CRC-16 calculated over the 0-bit and handle. If the interrogator observes this reply
within 20 ms then the Reset ReadProtect completed successfully.
• The G2iL encounters an error: The G2iL will backscatter an error code during the CW
period rather than the reply shown in Table 18 (see EPCglobal Spec for error-code
definitions and for the reply format).
• Reset ReadProtect does not succeed: If the interrogator does not observe a reply
within 20 ms then the Reset ReadProtect did not complete successfully. The
interrogator may issue a Req_RN command (containing the handle) to verify that the
G2iL is still in the interrogation zone, and may reissue the Reset ReadProtect
command.
The G2iL reply to the Reset ReadProtect command will use the extended preamble
shown in EPCglobal Spec (Figure 6.11 or Figure 6.15), as appropriate (i.e. a G2iL will
reply as if TRext=1 regardless of the TRext value in the Query that initiated the round.
The Reset ReadProtect command is structured as following:
• 16 bit command
• Password: 32 bit Access-Password XOR with 2 times current RN16
Remark: To generate the 32 bit password the 16 bit RN16 is duplicated and used two
times to generate the 32 bit (e.g. a RN16 of 1234 will result in 1234 1234).
• 16 bit handle
• CRC-16 calculate over the first command-code bit to the last handle bit

10.7.5 ChangeEAS3
UCODE G2iL equipped RFID tags will also feature a stand-alone operating EAS alarm
mechanism for fast and offline electronic article surveillance. The PSF bit of the
Configuration Word directly relates to the EAS Alarm feature. With an PSF bit set to '1' the
tag will reply to an EAS_Alarm command by backscattering a 64 bit alarm code without
the need of a Select or Query. The EAS is a built-in solution so no connection to a
backend database is required. In case the EAS_Alarm command is not implemented in
the reader a standard EPC SELCET to the Configuration Word and Query can be used.
When using standard SELECT/QUERY the EPC will be returned during inventory.
ChangeEAS can be executed from the Secured state only. The command will be ignored
if the Access Password is zero, the command will also be ignored with an invalid CRC-16
or an invalid handle, the G2iL will than remain in the current state. The CRC-16 is
calculated from the first command-code bit to the last handle bit. A frame-sync must be
pre-pended the command.
The G2iL reply to a successful ChangeEAS will use the extended preamble, as
appropriate (i.e. a Tag shall reply as if TRext=1) regardless of the TRext value in the
Query that initiated the round.
After sending a ChangeEAS an interrogator shall transmit CW for less than TReply or
20 ms, where TReply is the time between the interrogator's ChangeEAS command and the
G2iL backscattered reply. An interrogator may observe three possible responses after
sending a ChangeEAS, depending on the success or failure of the operation
• ChangeEAS succeeds: After completing the ChangeEAS a G2iL will backscatter the
reply shown in Table 21 comprising a header (a 0-bit), the handle, and a CRC-16
calculated over the 0-bit and handle. If the interrogator observes this reply within
20 ms then the ChangeEAS completed successfully.
• The G2iL encounters an error: The G2iL will backscatter an error code during the CW
period rather than the reply shown in Table 21 (see EPCglobal Spec for error-code
definitions and for the reply format).

• ChangeEAS does not succeed: If the interrogator does not observe a reply within
20 ms then the ChangeEAS did not complete successfully. The interrogator may
issue a Req_RN command (containing the handle) to verify that the G2iL is still in the
interrogator's field, and may reissue the ChangeEAS command.
Upon receiving a valid ChangeEAS command a G2iL will perform the commanded
set/reset operation of the PSF bit of the Configuration Word.
If PSF bit is set, the EAS_Alarm command will be available after the next power up and
reply the 64 bit EAS code upon execution. Otherwise the EAS_Alarm command will be
ignored.
10.7.6 EAS_Alarm
Upon receiving an EAS_Alarm custom command the UCODE G2iL will immediately
backscatter an EAS-Alarmcode in case the PSF bit of the Configuration Word is set. The
alarm code is returned without any delay caused by Select, Query and without the need
for a backend database.
The EAS feature of the G2iL is available after enabling it by sending a ChangeEAS
command described in Section 10.7.5 “ChangeEAS3” or after setting the PSF bit of the
Configuration Word to ’1’. With the EAS-Alarm enabled the G2iL will reply to an
EAS_Alarm command by backscattering a fixed 64 bit alarm code. A G2iL will reply to an
EAS_Alarm command from the ready state only. As an alternative to the fast EAS_Alarm
command a standard SELECT2 (upon the Configuration Word) and QUERY can be used.
If the PSF bit is reset to '0' by sending a ChangeEAS command in the password protected
Secure state or clearing the PSF bit the G2iL will not reply to an EAS_Alarm command.

The EAS_Alarm command is structured as following:
• 16 bit command
• 16 bit inverted command
• DR (TRcal divide ratio) sets the T=>R link frequency as described in EPCglobal Spec.
6.3.1.2.8 and Table 6.9.
• M (cycles per symbol) sets the T=>R data rate and modulation format as shown in
EPCglobal Spec. Table 6.10.
• TRext chooses whether the T=>R preamble is pre-pended with a pilot tone as
described in EPCglobal Spec. 6.3.1.3.
A preamble must be pre-pended the EAS_Alarm command according EPCglobal Spec,
6.3.1.2.8.
Upon receiving an EAS_Alarm command the tag loads the CRC5 register with 01001b
and backscatters the 64 bit alarm code accordingly. The reader is now able to calculate
the CRC5 over the backscattered 64 bits received to verify the received code.

1. Introduction
This document describes the functionality and electrical specifications of the
transceiver IC PN512.
The PN512 is a highly integrated transceiver IC for contactless communication at
13.56 MHz. This transceiver IC utilizes an outstanding modulation and demodulation
concept completely integrated for different kinds of contactless communication methods
and protocols at 13.56 MHz.
1.1 Different available versions
The PN512 is available in three versions:
• PN5120A0HN1/C2 (HVQFN32), PN5120A0HN/C2 (HVQFN40) and PN5120A0ET/C2
(TFBGA64), hereafter named as version 2.0
• PN512AA0HN1/C2 (HVQFN32) and PN512AA0HN1/C2BI (HVQFN32 with Burn In),
hereafter named as industrial version, fulfilling the automotive qualification stated in
AEC-Q100 grade 3 from the Automotive Electronics Council, defining the critical
stress test qualification for automotive integrated circuits (ICs).
• PN5120A0HN1/C1(HVQFN32) and PN5120A0HN/C1 (HVQFN40), hereafter named
as version 1.0
The data sheet describes the functionality for the industrial version and version 2.0. The
differences of the version 1.0 to the version 2.0 are summarized in Section 21. The
industrial version has only differences within the outlined characteristics and limitations.
2. General description
The PN512 transceiver ICs support 4 different operating modes
• Reader/Writer mode supporting ISO/IEC 14443A/MIFARE and FeliCa scheme
• Reader/Writer mode supporting ISO/IEC 14443B
• Card Operation mode supporting ISO/IEC 14443A/MIFARE and FeliCa scheme
• NFCIP-1 mode
Enabled in Reader/Writer mode for ISO/IEC 14443A/MIFARE, the PN512’s internal
transmitter part is able to drive a reader/writer antenna designed to communicate with
ISO/IEC 14443A/ MIFARE cards and transponders without additional active circuitry. The
receiver part provides a robust and efficient implementation of a demodulation and

decoding circuitry for signals from ISO/IEC 14443A/MIFARE compatible cards and
transponders. The digital part handles the complete ISO/IEC 14443A framing and error
detection (Parity & CRC).
The PN512 supports MIFARE 1K or MIFARE 4K emulation products. The PN512 supports
contactless communication using MIFARE higher transfer speeds up to 424 kbit/s in both
directions.
Enabled in Reader/Writer mode for FeliCa, the PN512 transceiver IC supports the FeliCa
communication scheme. The receiver part provides a robust and efficient implementation
of the demodulation and decoding circuitry for FeliCa coded signals. The digital part
handles the FeliCa framing and error detection like CRC. The PN512 supports contactless
communication using FeliCa Higher transfer speeds up to 424 kbit/s in both directions.
The PN512 supports all layers of the ISO/IEC 14443B reader/writer communication
scheme, given correct implementation of additional components, like oscillator, power
supply, coil etc. and provided that standardized protocols, e.g. like ISO/IEC 14443-4
and/or ISO/IEC 14443B anticollision are correctly implemented.
In Card Operation mode, the PN512 transceiver IC is able to answer to a reader/writer
command either according to the FeliCa or ISO/IEC 14443A/MIFARE card interface
scheme. The PN512 generates the digital load modulated signals and in addition with an
external circuit the answer can be sent back to the reader/writer. A complete card
functionality is only possible in combination with a secure IC using the S2C interface.
Additionally, the PN512 transceiver IC offers the possibility to communicate directly to an
NFCIP-1 device in the NFCIP-1 mode. The NFCIP-1 mode offers different communication
mode and transfer speeds up to 424 kbit/s according to the Ecma 340 and ISO/IEC 18092
NFCIP-1 Standard. The digital part handles the complete NFCIP-1 framing and error
detection.
Various host controller interfaces are implemented:
• 8-bit parallel interface1
• SPI interface
• serial UART (similar to RS232 with voltage levels according pad voltage supply)
• I

6. Block diagram
The analog interface handles the modulation and demodulation of the analog signals
according to the Card Receiving mode, Reader/Writer mode and NFCIP-1 mode
communication scheme.
The RF level detector detects the presence of an external RF-field delivered by the
antenna to the RX pin.
The Data mode detector detects a MIFARE, FeliCa or NFCIP-1 mode in order to prepare
the internal receiver to demodulate signals, which are sent to the PN512.
The communication (S2C) interface provides digital signals to support communication for
transfer speeds above 424 kbit/s and digital signals to communicate to a secure IC.
The contactless UART manages the protocol requirements for the communication
protocols in cooperation with the host. The FIFO buffer ensures fast and convenient data
transfer to and from the host and the contactless UART and vice versa.
Various host interfaces are implemented to meet different customer requirements.

8. Functional description
The PN512 transmission module supports the Read/Write mode for
ISO/IEC 14443 A/MIFARE and ISO/IEC 14443 B using various transfer speeds and
modulation protocols.
PN512 transceiver IC supports the following operating modes:
• Reader/Writer mode supporting ISO/IEC 14443A/MIFARE and FeliCa scheme
• Card Operation mode supporting ISO/IEC 14443A/MIFARE and FeliCa scheme
• NFCIP-1 mode
The modes support different transfer speeds and modulation schemes. The following
chapters will explain the different modes in detail.
Note: All indicated modulation indices and modes in this chapter are system parameters.
This means that beside the IC settings a suitable antenna tuning is required to achieve the
optimum performance.
8.1 ISO/IEC 14443 A/MIFARE functionality

The PN512’s contactless UART and dedicated external host must manage the complete
ISO/IEC 14443 A/MIFARE protocol. Figure 8 shows the data coding and framing
according to ISO/IEC 14443 A/MIFARE.
The internal CRC coprocessor calculates the CRC value based on ISO/IEC 14443 A
part 3 and handles parity generation internally according to the transfer speed. Automatic
parity generation can be switched off using the ManualRCVReg register’s ParityDisable
bit.
8.2 ISO/IEC 14443 B functionality
The PN512 reader IC fully supports international standard ISO 14443 which includes
communication schemes ISO 14443 A and ISO 14443 B.
Refer to the ISO 14443 reference documents Identification cards - Contactless integrated
circuit cards - Proximity cards (parts 1 to 4).
Remark: NXP Semiconductors does not offer a software library to enable design-in of the
ISO 14443 B protocol.

8.3 FeliCa reader/writer functionality
The FeliCa mode is the general reader/writer to card communication scheme according to
the FeliCa specification. The following diagram describes the communication on a
physical level, the communication overview describes the physical parameters.
The contactless UART of PN512 and a dedicated external host controller are required to
handle the complete FeliCa protocol.
8.3.1 FeliCa framing and coding
To enable the FeliCa communication a 6 byte preamble (00h, 00h, 00h, 00h, 00h, 00h)
and 2 bytes Sync bytes (B2h, 4Dh) are sent to synchronize the receiver.
The following Len byte indicates the length of the sent data bytes plus the LEN byte itself.
The CRC calculation is done according to the FeliCa definitions with the MSB first.
To transmit data on the RF interface, the host controller has to send the Len- and databytes
to the PN512's FIFO-buffer. The preamble and the sync bytes are generated by the
PN512 automatically and must not be written to the FIFO by the host controller. The
PN512 performs internally the CRC calculation and adds the result to the data frame.
Example for FeliCa CRC Calculation:

8.4 NFCIP-1 mode
The NFCIP-1 communication differentiates between an active and a Passive
Communication mode.
• Active Communication mode means both the initiator and the target are using their
own RF field to transmit data.
• Passive Communication mode means that the target answers to an initiator command
in a load modulation scheme. The initiator is active in terms of generating the RF field.
• Initiator: generates RF field at 13.56 MHz and starts the NFCIP-1 communication
• Target: responds to initiator command either in a load modulation scheme in Passive
Communication mode or using a self generated and self modulated RF field for Active
Communication mode.
In order to fully support the NFCIP-1 standard the PN512 supports the Active and Passive
Communication mode at the transfer speeds 106 kbit/s, 212 kbit/s and 424 kbit/s as
defined in the NFCIP-1 standard.

8.4.1 Active communication mode
Active communication mode means both the initiator and the target are using their own
RF field to transmit data.
The contactless UART of PN512 and a dedicated host controller are required to handle
the NFCIP-1 protocol.
Note: Transfer Speeds above 424 kbit/s are not defined in the NFCIP-1 standard. The
PN512 supports these transfer speeds only with dedicated external circuits.

8.4.3 NFCIP-1 framing and coding
The NFCIP-1 framing and coding in Active and Passive Communication mode is defined
in the NFCIP-1 standard.
8.4.4 NFCIP-1 protocol support
The NFCIP-1 protocol is not completely described in this document. For detailed
explanation of the protocol refer to the NFCIP-1 standard. However the datalink layer is
according to the following policy:
• Speed shall not be changed while continuum data exchange in a transaction.
• Transaction includes initialization and anticollision methods and data exchange (in
continuous way, meaning no interruption by another transaction).
In order not to disturb current infrastructure based on 13.56 MHz general rules to start
NFCIP-1 communication are defined in the following way.
1. Per default NFCIP-1 device is in Target mode meaning its RF field is switched off.
2. The RF level detector is active.
3. Only if application requires the NFCIP-1 device shall switch to Initiator mode.
4. Initiator shall only switch on its RF field if no external RF field is detected by RF Level
detector during a time of TIDT.
5. The initiator performs initialization according to the selected mode.

r/w read and write These bits can be written and read by the -Controller. Since they
are used only for control means, there content is not influenced by
internal state machines, e.g. the PageSelect-Register may be

dy dynamic These bits can be written and read by the -Controller.
Nevertheless, they may also be written automatically by internal
state machines, e.g. the Command-Register changes its value
automatically after the execution of the actual command.
r read only These registers hold bits, which value is determined by internal
states only, e.g. the CRCReady bit can not be written from
external but shows internal states.
w write only Reading these registers returns always ZERO.
RFU - These registers are reserved for future use.
In case of a PN512 Version version 2.0 (VersionReg = 82h) a
read access to these registers returns always the value “0”.
Nevertheless this is not guaranteed for future chips versions
where the value is undefined. In case of a write access, it is
recommended to write always the value “0”.

10.1 Automatic microcontroller interface detection
The PN512 supports direct interfacing of hosts using SPI, I2C-bus or serial UART
interfaces. The PN512 resets its interface and checks the current host interface type
automatically after performing a power-on or hard reset. The PN512 identifies the host
interface by sensing the logic levels on the control pins after the reset phase. This is done
using a combination of fixed pin connections. Table 141 shows the different connection
configurations.

communication to the host. The interface can handle data speeds up to 10 Mbit/s. When
communicating with a host, the PN512 acts as a slave, receiving data from the external
host for register settings, sending and receiving data relevant for RF interface
communication.
An interface compatible with SPI enables high-speed serial communication between the
PN512 and a microcontroller. The implemented interface is in accordance with the SPI
standard.
The timing specification is given in Section 26.1 on page 117.
The PN512 acts as a slave during SPI communication. The SPI clock signal SCK must be
generated by the master. Data communication from the master to the slave uses the
MOSI line. The MISO line is used to send data from the PN512 to the master.
Data bytes on both MOSI and MISO lines are sent with the MSB first. Data on both MOSI
and MISO lines must be stable on the rising edge of the clock and can be changed on the
falling edge. Data is provided by the PN512 on the falling clock edge and is stable during
the rising clock edge.
10.2.1 SPI read data
Reading data using SPI requires the byte order shown in Table 143 to be used. It is
possible to read out up to n-data bytes.
The first byte sent defines both the mode and the address.
[1] X = Do not care.
Remark: The MSB must be sent first.
10.2.2 SPI write data
To write data to the PN512 using SPI requires the byte order shown in Table 144. It is
possible to write up to n data bytes by only sending one address byte.

10.2.3 SPI address byte
The address byte has to meet the following format.
The MSB of the first byte defines the mode used. To read data from the PN512 the MSB is
set to logic 1. To write data to the PN512 the MSB must be set to logic 0. Bits 6 to 1 define
the address and the LSB is set to logic 0.

Remark: Signals DTRQ and MX can be disabled by clearing TestPinEnReg register’s
RS232LineEn bit.
10.3.2 Selectable UART transfer speeds
The internal UART interface is compatible with an RS232 serial interface.
The default transfer speed is 9.6 kBd. To change the transfer speed, the host controller
must write a value for the new transfer speed to the SerialSpeedReg register. Bits
BR_T0[2:0] and BR_T1[4:0] define the factors for setting the transfer speed in the
SerialSpeedReg register.
The BR_T0[2:0] and BR_T1[4:0] settings are described in Table 10. Examples of different
transfer speeds and the relevant register settings are given in Table 11.

The MSB of the first byte sets the mode used. To read data from the PN512, the MSB is
set to logic 1. To write data to the PN512 the MSB is set to logic 0. Bit 6 is reserved for
future use, and bits 5 to 0 define the address; see Table 151.
10.4 I2C Bus Interface
An I2C-bus (Inter-IC) interface is supported to enable a low-cost, low pin count serial bus
interface to the host. The I2C-bus interface is implemented according to
NXP Semiconductors’ I
2C-bus interface specification, rev. 2.1, January 2000. The
interface can only act in Slave mode. Therefore the PN512 does not implement clock
generation or access arbitration.
The PN512 can act either as a slave receiver or slave transmitter in Standard mode, Fast
mode and High-speed mode.
SDA is a bidirectional line connected to a positive supply voltage using a current source or
a pull-up resistor. Both SDA and SCL lines are set HIGH when data is not transmitted. The
PN512 has a 3-state output stage to perform the wired-AND function. Data on the I2C-bus
can be transferred at data rates of up to 100 kBd in Standard mode, up to 400 kBd in Fast
mode or up to 3.4 Mbit/s in High-speed mode.
If the I2C-bus interface is selected, spike suppression is activated on lines SCL and SDA
as defined in the I2C-bus interface specification.
See Table 171 on page 117 for timing requirements.

10.4.1 Data validity
Data on the SDA line must be stable during the HIGH clock period. The HIGH or LOW
state of the data line must only change when the clock signal on SCL is LOW.
10.4.2 START and STOP conditions
To manage the data transfer on the I2C-bus, unique START (S) and STOP (P) conditions
are defined.
• A START condition is defined with a HIGH-to-LOW transition on the SDA line while
SCL is HIGH.
• A STOP condition is defined with a LOW-to-HIGH transition on the SDA line while
SCL is HIGH.
The I2C-bus master always generates the START and STOP conditions. The bus is busy
after the START condition. The bus is free again a certain time after the STOP condition.
The bus stays busy if a repeated START (Sr) is generated instead of a STOP condition.
The START (S) and repeated START (Sr) conditions are functionally identical. Therefore,
S is used as a generic term to represent both the START (S) and repeated START (Sr)
conditions.
10.4.3 Byte format
Each byte must be followed by an acknowledge bit. Data is transferred with the MSB first;
see Figure 22. The number of transmitted bytes during one data transfer is unrestricted
but must meet the read/write cycle format.

10.4.4 Acknowledge
An acknowledge must be sent at the end of one data byte. The acknowledge-related clock
pulse is generated by the master. The transmitter of data, either master or slave, releases
the SDA line (HIGH) during the acknowledge clock pulse. The receiver pulls down the
SDA line during the acknowledge clock pulse so that it remains stable LOW during the
HIGH period of this clock pulse.
The master can then generate either a STOP (P) condition to stop the transfer or a
repeated START (Sr) condition to start a new transfer.
A master-receiver indicates the end of data to the slave-transmitter by not generating an
acknowledge on the last byte that was clocked out by the slave. The slave-transmitter
releases the data line to allow the master to generate a STOP (P) or repeated START (Sr)
condition.

10.4.5 7-Bit addressing
During the I2C-bus address procedure, the first byte after the START condition is used to
determine which slave will be selected by the master.
Several address numbers are reserved. During device configuration, the designer must
ensure that collisions with these reserved addresses cannot occur. Check the I
2C-bus
specification for a complete list of reserved addresses.
The I2C-bus address specification is dependent on the definition of pin EA. Immediately
after releasing pin NRSTPD or after a power-on reset, the device defines the I2C-bus
address according to pin EA.
If pin EA is set LOW, the upper 4 bits of the device bus address are reserved by
NXP Semiconductors and set to 0101b for all PN512 devices. The remaining 3 bits
(ADR_0, ADR_1, ADR_2) of the slave address can be freely configured by the customer
to prevent collisions with other I2C-bus devices.
If pin EA is set HIGH, ADR_0 to ADR_5 can be completely specified at the external pins
according to Table 141 on page 69. ADR_6 is always set to logic 0.
In both modes, the external address coding is latched immediately after releasing the
reset condition. Further changes at the used pins are not taken into consideration.
Depending on the external wiring, the I2C-bus address pins can be used for test signal
outputs.
10.4.6 Register write access
To write data from the host controller using the I2C-bus to a specific register in the PN512
the following frame format must be used.
• The first byte of a frame indicates the device address according to the I2C-bus rules.
• The second byte indicates the register address followed by up to n-data bytes.
In one frame all data bytes are written to the same register address. This enables fast
FIFO buffer access. The Read/Write (R/W) bit is set to logic 0.

10.4.7 Register read access
To read out data from a specific register address in the PN512, the host controller must
use the following procedure:
• Firstly, a write access to the specific register address must be performed as indicated
in the frame that follows
• The first byte of a frame indicates the device address according to the I2C-bus rules
• The second byte indicates the register address. No data bytes are added
• The Read/Write bit is 0
After the write access, read access can start. The host sends the device address of the
PN512. In response, the PN512 sends the content of the read access register. In one
frame all data bytes can be read from the same register address. This enables fast FIFO
buffer access or register polling.
The Read/Write (R/W) bit is set to logic 1.

10.4.8 High-speed mode
In High-speed mode (HS mode), the device can transfer information at data rates of up to
3.4 Mbit/s, while remaining fully downward-compatible with Fast or Standard mode
(F/S mode) for bidirectional communication in a mixed-speed bus system.
10.4.9 High-speed transfer
To achieve data rates of up to 3.4 Mbit/s the following improvements have been made to
I
2C-bus operation.
• The inputs of the device in HS mode incorporate spike suppression, a Schmitt trigger
on the SDA and SCL inputs and different timing constants when compared to
F/S mode
• The output buffers of the device in HS mode incorporate slope control of the falling
edges of the SDA and SCL signals with different fall times compared to F/S mode
10.4.10 Serial data transfer format in HS mode
The HS mode serial data transfer format meets the Standard mode I2C-bus specification.
HS mode can only start after all of the following conditions (all of which are in F/S mode):
1. START condition (S)
2. 8-bit master code (00001XXXb)
3. Not-acknowledge bit (A)
When HS mode starts, the active master sends a repeated START condition (Sr) followed
by a 7-bit slave address with a R/W bit address and receives an acknowledge bit (A) from
the selected PN512.
Data transfer continues in HS mode after the next repeated START (Sr), only switching
back to F/S mode after a STOP condition (P). To reduce the overhead of the master code,
a master links a number of HS mode transfers, separated by repeated START conditions
(Sr).

10.4.11 Switching between F/S mode and HS mode
After reset and initialization, the PN512 is in Fast mode (which is in effect F/S mode as
Fast mode is downward-compatible with Standard mode). The connected PN512
recognizes the “S 00001XXX A” sequence and switches its internal circuitry from the Fast
mode setting to the HS mode setting.
The following actions are taken:
1. Adapt the SDA and SCL input filters according to the spike suppression requirement
in HS mode.
2. Adapt the slope control of the SDA output stages.
It is possible for system configurations that do not have other I2C-bus devices involved in
the communication to switch to HS mode permanently. This is implemented by setting
Status2Reg register’s I2CForceHS bit to logic 1. In permanent HS mode, the master code
is not required to be sent. This is not defined in the specification and must only be used
when no other devices are connected on the bus. In addition, spikes on the I2C-bus lines
must be avoided because of the reduced spike suppression.
10.4.12 PN512 at lower speed modes
PN512 is fully downward-compatible and can be connected to an F/S mode I2C-bus
system. The device stays in F/S mode and communicates at F/S mode speeds because a
master code is not transmitted in this configuration.
11. 8-bit parallel interface
The PN512 supports two different types of 8-bit parallel interfaces, Intel and Motorola
compatible modes.
11.1 Overview of supported host controller interfaces
The PN512 supports direct interfacing to various -Controllers. The following table shows

12. Analog interface and contactless UART
12.1 General
The integrated contactless UART supports the external host online with framing and error
checking of the protocol requirements up to 848 kBd. An external circuit can be connected
to the communication interface pins MFIN and MFOUT to modulate and demodulate the
data.
The contactless UART handles the protocol requirements for the communication
protocols in cooperation with the host. Protocol handling generates bit and byte-oriented
framing. In addition, it handles error detection such as parity and CRC, based on the
various supported contactless communication protocols.
Remark: The size and tuning of the antenna and the power supply voltage have an
important impact on the achievable operating distance.
12.2 TX driver
The signal on pins TX1 and TX2 is the 13.56 MHz energy carrier modulated by an
envelope signal. It can be used to drive an antenna directly using a few passive
components for matching and filtering; see Section 15 on page 96. The signal on pins TX1
and TX2 can be configured using the TxControlReg register; see Section 9.2.2.5 on
page 40.
The modulation index can be set by adjusting the impedance of the drivers. The
impedance of the p-driver can be configured using registers CWGsPReg and
ModGsPReg. The impedance of the n-driver can be configured using the GsNReg
register. The modulation index also depends on the antenna design and tuning.
The TxModeReg and TxSelReg registers control the data rate and framing during
transmission and the antenna driver setting to support the different requirements at the
different modes and transfer speeds.

The sensitivity of the RF level detector is adjustable in a 4-bit range using the bits RFLevel
in register RFCfgReg. The sensitivity itself depends on the antenna configuration and
tuning.
Possible sensitivity levels at the RX pin are listed in the Table 154.
To increase the sensitivity of the RF level detector an amplifier can be activated by setting
the bit RFLevelAmp in register RFCfgReg to 1.
Remark: During soft Power-down mode the RF level detector amplifier is automatically
switched off to ensure that the power consumption is less than 10 A at 3 V.
Remark: With typical antennas lower sensitivity levels can provoke misleading results
because of intrinsic noise in the environment.
Note: It is recommended to use the bit RFLevelAmp only with higher RF level settings.
12.4 Data mode detector
The Data mode detector gives the possibility to detect received signals according to the
ISO/IEC 14443A/MIFARE, FeliCa or NFCIP-1 schemes at the standard transfer speeds
for 106 kbit, 212 kbit and 424 kbit in order to prepare the internal receiver in a fast and
convenient way for further data processing.
The Data mode detector can only be activated by the AutoColl command. The mode
detector resets, when no external RF field is detected by the RF level detector. The Data
mode detector could be switched off during the AutoColl command by setting bit
ModeDetOff in register ModeReg to 1.

12.5 Serial data switch
Two main blocks are implemented in the PN512. The digital block comprises the state
machines, encoder/decoder logic. The analog block comprises the modulator and
antenna drivers, the receiver and amplifiers. The interface between these two blocks can
be configured in the way, that the interfacing signals may be routed to the pins SIGIN and
SIGOUT. SIGIN is capable of processing digital NFC signals on transfer speeds above
424 kbit. The SIGOUT pin can provide a digital signal that can be used with an additional
external circuit to generate transfer speeds above 424 kbit (including 106, 212 and
424 kbit). Furthermore SIGOUT and SIGIN can be used to enable the S2C interface in the
card SAM mode to emulate a card functionality with the PN512 and a secure IC. A secure
IC can be the SmartMX smart card controller IC.
This topology allows the analog block of the PN512 to be connected to the digital block of
another device.
The serial signal switch is controlled by the TxSelReg and RxSelReg registers.
Figure 29 shows the serial data switch for TX1 and TX2.
12.6 S2C interface support
The S2C provides the possibility to directly connect a secure IC to the PN512 in order act
as a contactless smart card IC via the PN512. The interfacing signals can be routed to the
pins SIGIN and SIGOUT. SIGIN can receive either a digital FeliCa or digitized
ISO/IEC 14443A signal sent by the secure IC. The SIGOUT pin can provide a digital
signal and a clock to communicate to the secure IC. A secure IC can be the smart card IC
provided by NXP Semiconductors.
The PN512 has an extra supply pin (SVDD and PVSS as Ground line) for the SIGIN and
SIGOUT pads.
Figure 31 outlines possible ways of communications via the PN512 to the secure IC.

Configured in the Secure Access Mode the host controller can directly communicate to
the Secure IC via SIGIN/SIGOUT. In this mode the PN512 generates the RF clock and
performs the communication on the SIGOUT line. To enable the Secure Access module
mode the clock has to be derived by the internal oscillator of the PN512, see bits
SAMClockSel in register TestSel1Reg.
Configured in Contactless Card mode the secure IC can act as contactless smart card IC
via the PN512. In this mode the signal on the SIGOUT line is provided by the external RF
field of the external reader/writer. To enable the Contactless Card mode the clock derived
by the external RF field has to be used.

12.6.1 Signal shape for Felica S2C interface support
The FeliCa secure IC is connected to the PN512 via the pins SIGOUT and SIGIN.
The signal at SIGOUT contains the information of the 13.56 MHz clock and the digitized
demodulated signal. The clock and the demodulated signal is combined by using the
logical function exclusive or.
To ensure that this signal is free of spikes, the demodulated signal is digitally filtered first.
The time delay for that digital filtering is in the range of one bit length. The demodulated
signal changes only at a positive edge of the clock.
The register TxSelReg controls the setting at SIGOUT.
The answer of the FeliCa SAM is transferred from SIGIN directly to the antenna driver.
The modulation is done according to the register settings of the antenna drivers.
The clock is switched to AUX1 or AUX2 (see AnalogSelAux).
Note: A HIGH signal on AUX1 and AUX2 has the same level as AVDD. A HIGH signal at
SIGOUT has the same level as SVDD. Alternatively it is possible to use pin D0 as clock
output if a serial interface is used. The HIGH level at D0 is the same as PVDD.
Note: The signal on the antenna is shown in principle only. In reality the waveform is
sinusoidal.

12.6.2 Waveform shape for ISO/IEC 14443A and MIFARE S2C support
The secure IC, e.g. the SmartMX is connected to the PN512 via the pins SIGOUT and
SIGIN.
The waveform shape at SIGOUT is a digital 13.56 MHz Miller coded signal with levels
between PVSS and PVDD derived out of the external 13.56 MHz carrier signal in case of
the Contactless Card mode or internally generated in terms of Secure Access mode.
The register TxSelReg controls the setting at SIGOUT.
Note: The clock settings for the Secure Access mode and the Contactless Card mode
differ, refer to the description of the bits SAMClockSel in register TestSel1Reg.
The signal at SIGIN is a digital Manchester coded signal according to the requirements of
the ISO/IEC 14443A with the subcarrier frequency of 847.5 kHz generated by the secure
IC.

12.7 Hardware support for FeliCa and NFC polling
12.7.1 Polling sequence functionality for initiator
1. Timer: The PN512 has a timer, which can be programmed in a way that it generates
an interrupt at the end of each timeslot, or if required an interrupt is generated at the
end of the last timeslot.
2. The receiver can be configured in a way to receive continuously. In this mode it can
receive any number of packets. The receiver is ready to receive the next packet
directly after the last packet has been received. This mode is active by setting the bit
RxMultiple in register RxModeReg to 1 and has to be stopped by software.
3. The internal UART adds one byte to the end of every received packet, before it is
transferred into the FIFO-buffer. This byte indicates if the received byte packet is
correct (see register ErrReg). The first byte of each packet contains the length byte of
the packet.
4. The length of one packet is 18 or 20 bytes (+ 1 byte Error-Info). The FIFO has a
length of 64 bytes. This means three packets can be stored in the FIFO at the same
time. If more than three packets are expected, the host controller has to empty the
FIFO, before the FIFO is filled completely. In case of a FIFO-overflow data is lost (See
bit BufferOvfl in register ErrorReg).
12.7.2 Polling sequence functionality for target
1. The host controller has to configure the PN512 with the correct polling response
parameters for the polling command.
2. To activate the automatic polling in Target mode, the AutoColl Command has to be
activated.
3. The PN512 receives the polling command send out by an initiator and answers with
the polling response. The timeslot is selected automatically (The timeslot itself is
randomly generated, but in the range 0 to TSN, which is defined by the Polling
command). The PN512 compares the system code, stored in byte 17 and 18 of the
Config Command with the system code received by the polling command of an
initiator. If the system code is equal, the PN512 answers according to the configured
polling response. The system code FF (hex) acts as a wildcard for the system code
bytes, i.e. a target of a system code 1234 (hex) answers to the polling command with
one of the following system codes 1234 (hex), 12FF (hex), FF34 (hex) or FFFF (hex).
If the system code does not match no answer is sent back by the PN512.
If a valid command is received by the PN512, which is not a Polling command, no
answer is sent back and the command AutoColl is stopped. The received packet is
stored in the FIFO.PN512 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP B.V. 2013. All rights reserved.

12.7.3 Additional hardware support for FeliCa and NFC
Additionally to the polling sequence support for the Felica mode, the PN512 supports the
check of the Len-byte.
The received Len-byte in accordance to the registers FelNFC1Reg and FelNFC2Reg:
DataLenMin in register FelNFC1Reg defines the minimum length of the accepted packet
length. This register is six bit long. Each bit represents a length of four bytes.
DataLenMax in register FelNFC2Reg defines the maximum length of the accepted
package. This register is six bit long. Each bit represents a length of four bytes. If set to
logic 1 this limit is ignored. If the length is not in the supposed range, the packet is not
transferred to the FIFO and receiving is kept active.
Example 1:
• DataLenMin = 4
– The length shall be greater or equal 16.
• DataLenMax = 5
– The length shall be smaller than 20. Valid area: 16, 17, 18, 19
Example 2:
• DataLenMin = 9
– The length shall be greater or equal 36.
• DataLenMax = 0
– The length shall be smaller than 256. Valid area: 36 to 255
12.7.4 CRC coprocessor
The following CRC coprocessor parameters can be configured:
• The CRC preset value can be either 0000h, 6363h, A671h or FFFFh depending on
the ModeReg register’s CRCPreset[1:0] bits setting
• The CRC polynomial for the 16-bit CRC is fixed to x16 + x12 + x5 + 1
• The CRCResultReg register indicates the result of the CRC calculation. This register
is split into two 8-bit registers representing the higher and lower bytes.
• The ModeReg register’s MSBFirst bit indicates that data will be loaded with the MSB
first.

13. FIFO buffer
An 8 64 bit FIFO buffer is used in the PN512. It buffers the input and output data stream
between the host and the PN512’s internal state machine. This makes it possible to
manage data streams up to 64 bytes long without the need to take timing constraints into
account.
13.1 Accessing the FIFO buffer
The FIFO buffer input and output data bus is connected to the FIFODataReg register.
Writing to this register stores one byte in the FIFO buffer and increments the internal FIFO
buffer write pointer. Reading from this register shows the FIFO buffer contents stored in
the FIFO buffer read pointer and decrements the FIFO buffer read pointer. The distance
between the write and read pointer can be obtained by reading the FIFOLevelReg
register.
When the microcontroller starts a command, the PN512 can, while the command is in
progress, access the FIFO buffer according to that command. Only one FIFO buffer has
been implemented which can be used for input and output. The microcontroller must
ensure that there are not any unintentional FIFO buffer accesses.
13.2 Controlling the FIFO buffer
The FIFO buffer pointers can be reset by setting FIFOLevelReg register’s FlushBuffer bit
to logic 1. Consequently, the FIFOLevel[6:0] bits are all set to logic 0 and the ErrorReg
register’s BufferOvfl bit is cleared. The bytes stored in the FIFO buffer are no longer
accessible allowing the FIFO buffer to be filled with another 64 bytes.
13.3 FIFO buffer status information
The host can get the following FIFO buffer status information:
• Number of bytes stored in the FIFO buffer: FIFOLevelReg register’s FIFOLevel[6:0]
• FIFO buffer almost full warning: Status1Reg register’s HiAlert bit
• FIFO buffer almost empty warning: Status1Reg register’s LoAlert bit
• FIFO buffer overflow warning: ErrorReg register’s BufferOvfl bit. The BufferOvfl bit
can only be cleared by setting the FIFOLevelReg register’s FlushBuffer bit.
The PN512 can generate an interrupt signal when:
• ComIEnReg register’s LoAlertIEn bit is set to logic 1. It activates pin IRQ when
Status1Reg register’s LoAlert bit changes to logic 1.
• ComIEnReg register’s HiAlertIEn bit is set to logic 1. It activates pin IRQ when
Status1Reg register’s HiAlert bit changes to logic 1.
If the maximum number of WaterLevel bytes (as set in the WaterLevelReg register) or less
are stored in the FIFO buffer, the HiAlert bit is set to logic 1. It is generated according to
Equation 3:

If the number of WaterLevel bytes (as set in the WaterLevelReg register) or less are
stored in the FIFO buffer, the LoAlert bit is set to logic 1. It is generated according to
Equation 4:
(4)
14. Interrupt request system
The PN512 indicates certain events by setting the Status1Reg register’s IRq bit and, if
activated, by pin IRQ. The signal on pin IRQ can be used to interrupt the host using its
interrupt handling capabilities. This allows the implementation of efficient host software.
14.1 Interrupt sources overview
Table 157 shows the available interrupt bits, the corresponding source and the condition
for its activation. The ComIrqReg register’s TimerIRq interrupt bit indicates an interrupt set
by the timer unit which is set when the timer decrements from 1 to 0.
The ComIrqReg register’s TxIRq bit indicates that the transmitter has finished. If the state
changes from sending data to transmitting the end of the frame pattern, the transmitter
unit automatically sets the interrupt bit. The CRC coprocessor sets the DivIrqReg
register’s CRCIRq bit after processing all the FIFO buffer data which is indicated by
CRCReady bit = 1.
The ComIrqReg register’s RxIRq bit indicates an interrupt when the end of the received
data is detected. The ComIrqReg register’s IdleIRq bit is set if a command finishes and
the Command[3:0] value in the CommandReg register changes to idle (see Table 158 on
page 101).
The ComIrqReg register’s HiAlertIRq bit is set to logic 1 when the Status1Reg register’s
HiAlert bit is set to logic 1 which means that the FIFO buffer has reached the level
indicated by the WaterLevel[5:0] bits.
The ComIrqReg register’s LoAlertIRq bit is set to logic 1 when the Status1Reg register’s
LoAlert bit is set to logic 1 which means that the FIFO buffer has reached the level
indicated by the WaterLevel[5:0] bits.
The ComIrqReg register’s ErrIRq bit indicates an error detected by the contactless UART
during send or receive. This is indicated when any bit is set to logic 1 in register ErrorReg.

15. Timer unit
A timer unit is implemented in the PN512. The external host controller may use this timer
to manage timing relevant tasks. The timer unit may be used in one of the following
configurations:
• Time-out counter
• Watch-dog counter
• Stop watch
• Programmable one-shot
• Periodical trigger
The timer unit can be used to measure the time interval between two events or to indicate
that a specific event occurred after a specific time. The timer can be triggered by events
which will be explained in the following, but the timer itself does not influence any internal
event (e.g. A time-out during data reception does not influence the reception process
automatically). Furthermore, several timer related bits are set and these bits can be used
to generate an interrupt.
Timer
The timer has an input clock of 13.56 MHz (derived from the 27.12 MHz quartz). The timer
consists of two stages: 1 prescaler and 1 counter.
The prescaler is a 12-bit counter. The reload value for TPrescaler can be defined between
0 and 4095 in register TModeReg and TPrescalerReg.
The reload value for the counter is defined by 16 bits in a range of 0 to 65535 in the
register TReloadReg.
The current value of the timer is indicated by the register TCounterValReg.
If the counter reaches 0 an interrupt will be generated automatically indicated by setting
the TimerIRq bit in the register CommonIRqReg. If enabled, this event can be indicated on
the IRQ line. The bit TimerIRq can be set and reset by the host controller. Depending on
the configuration the timer will stop at 0 or restart with the value from register
TReloadReg.
The status of the timer is indicated by bit TRunning in register Status1Reg.
The timer can be manually started by TStartNow in register ControlReg or manually
stopped by TStopNow in register ControlReg.
Furthermore the timer can be activated automatically by setting the bit TAuto in the
register TModeReg to fulfill dedicated protocol requirements automatically.
The time delay of a timer stage is the reload value +1.
The definition of total time is: t = ((TPrescaler*2+1)*TReload+1)/13.56MHz or if
TPrescaleEven bit is set: t = ((TPrescaler*2+2)*TReload+1)/13.56MHz
Maximum time: TPrescaler = 4095,TReloadVal = 65535
=> (2*4095 +2)*65536/13.56 MHz = 39.59 s

Hard power-down is enabled when pin NRSTPD is LOW. This turns off all internal current
sinks including the oscillator. All digital input buffers are separated from the input pins and
clamped internally (except pin NRSTPD). The output pins are frozen at either a HIGH or
LOW level.
16.2 Soft power-down mode
Soft Power-down mode is entered immediately after the CommandReg register’s
PowerDown bit is set to logic 1. All internal current sinks are switched off, including the
oscillator buffer. However, the digital input buffers are not separated from the input pins
and keep their functionality. The digital output pins do not change their state.
During soft power-down, all register values, the FIFO buffer content and the configuration
keep their current contents.
After setting the PowerDown bit to logic 0, it takes 1024 clocks until the Soft power-down
mode is exited indicated by the PowerDown bit. Setting it to logic 0 does not immediately
clear it. It is cleared automatically by the PN512 when Soft power-down mode is exited.
Remark: If the internal oscillator is used, you must take into account that it is supplied by
pin AVDD and it will take a certain time (tosc) until the oscillator is stable and the clock
cycles can be detected by the internal logic. It is recommended for the serial UART, to first
send the value 55h to the PN512. The oscillator must be stable for further access to the
registers. To ensure this, perform a read access to address 0 until the PN512 answers to
the last read command with the register content of address 0. This indicates that the
PN512 is ready.
16.3 Transmitter power-down mode
The Transmitter Power-down mode switches off the internal antenna drivers thereby,
turning off the RF field. Transmitter power-down mode is entered by setting either the
TxControlReg register’s Tx1RFEn bit or Tx2RFEn bit to logic 0.PN512 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP B.V. 2013. All rights reserved.

17. Oscillator circuitry
The clock applied to the PN512 provides a time basis for the synchronous system’s
encoder and decoder. The stability of the clock frequency, therefore, is an important factor
for correct operation. To obtain optimum performance, clock jitter must be reduced as
much as possible. This is best achieved using the internal oscillator buffer with the
recommended circuitry.
If an external clock source is used, the clock signal must be applied to pin OSCIN. In this
case, special care must be taken with the clock duty cycle and clock jitter and the clock
quality must be verified.
18. Reset and oscillator start-up time
18.1 Reset timing requirements
The reset signal is filtered by a hysteresis circuit and a spike filter before it enters the
digital circuit. The spike filter rejects signals shorter than 10 ns. In order to perform a reset,
the signal must be LOW for at least 100 ns.
18.2 Oscillator start-up time
If the PN512 has been set to a Power-down mode or is powered by a VDDX supply, the
start-up time for the PN512 depends on the oscillator used and is shown in Figure 36.
The time (tstartup) is the start-up time of the crystal oscillator circuit. The crystal oscillator
start-up time is defined by the crystal.
The time (td) is the internal delay time of the PN512 when the clock signal is stable before
the PN512 can be addressed.
The delay time is calculated by:
(5)
The time (tosc) is the sum of td and tstartup.

19. PN512 command set
The PN512 operation is determined by a state machine capable of performing a set of
commands. A command is executed by writing a command code (see Table 158) to the
CommandReg register.
Arguments and/or data necessary to process a command are exchanged via the FIFO
buffer.
19.1 General description
The PN512 operation is determined by a state machine capable of performing a set of
commands. A command is executed by writing a command code (see Table 158) to the
CommandReg register.
Arguments and/or data necessary to process a command are exchanged via the FIFO
buffer.
19.2 General behavior
• Each command that needs a data bit stream (or data byte stream) as an input
immediately processes any data in the FIFO buffer. An exception to this rule is the
Transceive command. Using this command, transmission is started with the
BitFramingReg register’s StartSend bit.
• Each command that needs a certain number of arguments, starts processing only
when it has received the correct number of arguments from the FIFO buffer.
• The FIFO buffer is not automatically cleared when commands start. This makes it
possible to write command arguments and/or the data bytes to the FIFO buffer and
then start the command.
• Each command can be interrupted by the host writing a new command code to the
CommandReg register, for example, the Idle command.

19.3.1.1 Idle
Places the PN512 in Idle mode. The Idle command also terminates itself.
19.3.1.2 Config command
To use the automatic MIFARE Anticollision, FeliCa Polling and NFCID3 the data used for
these transactions has to be stored internally. All the following data have to be written to
the FIFO in this order:
SENS_RES (2 bytes); in order byte 0, byte 1
NFCID1 (3 Bytes); in order byte 0, byte 1, byte 2; the first NFCID1 byte is fixed to 08h and
the check byte is calculated automatically.
SEL_RES (1 Byte)
polling response (2 bytes (shall be 01h, FEh) + 6 bytes NFCID2 + 8 bytes Pad + 2 bytes
system code)
NFCID3 (1 byte)
In total 25 bytes are transferred into an internal buffer.
The complete NFCID3 is 10 bytes long and consists of the 3 NFCID1 bytes, the 6 NFCID2
bytes and the one NFCID3 byte which are listed above.
To read out this configuration the command Config with an empty FIFO-buffer has to be
started. In this case the 25 bytes are transferred from the internal buffer to the FIFO.

The PN512 has to be configured after each power up, before using the automatic
Anticollision/Polling function (AutoColl command). During a hard power down (reset pin)
this configuration remains unchanged.
This command terminates automatically when finished and the active command is idle.
19.3.1.3 Generate RandomID
This command generates a 10-byte random number which is initially stored in the internal
buffer. This then overwrites the 10 bytes in the internal 25-byte buffer. This command
automatically terminates when finished and the PN512 returns to Idle mode.
19.3.1.4 CalcCRC
The FIFO buffer content is transferred to the CRC coprocessor and the CRC calculation is
started. The calculation result is stored in the CRCResultReg register. The CRC
calculation is not limited to a dedicated number of bytes. The calculation is not stopped
when the FIFO buffer is empty during the data stream. The next byte written to the FIFO
buffer is added to the calculation.
The CRC preset value is controlled by the ModeReg register’s CRCPreset[1:0] bits. The
value is loaded in to the CRC coprocessor when the command starts.
This command must be terminated by writing a command to the CommandReg register,
such as, the Idle command.
If the AutoTestReg register’s SelfTest[3:0] bits are set correctly, the PN512 enters Self
Test mode. Starting the CalcCRC command initiates a digital self test. The result of the
self test is written to the FIFO buffer.
19.3.1.5 Transmit
The FIFO buffer content is immediately transmitted after starting this command. Before
transmitting the FIFO buffer content, all relevant registers must be set for data
transmission.
This command automatically terminates when the FIFO buffer is empty. It can be
terminated by another command written to the CommandReg register.
19.3.1.6 NoCmdChange
This command does not influence any running command in the CommandReg register. It
can be used to manipulate any bit except the CommandReg register Command[3:0] bits,
for example, the RcvOff bit or the PowerDown bit.
19.3.1.7 Receive
The PN512 activates the receiver path and waits for a data stream to be received. The
correct settings must be chosen before starting this command.
This command automatically terminates when the data stream ends. This is indicated
either by the end of frame pattern or by the length byte depending on the selected frame
type and speed.
Remark: If the RxModeReg register’s RxMultiple bit is set to logic 1, the Receive
command will not automatically terminate. It must be terminated by starting another
command in the CommandReg register.PN512 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP B.V. 2013. All rights reserved.

19.3.1.8 Transceive
This command continuously repeats the transmission of data from the FIFO buffer and the
reception of data from the RF field. The first action is transmit and after transmission the
command is changed to receive a data stream.
Each transmit process must be started by setting the BitFramingReg register’s StartSend
bit to logic 1. This command must be cleared by writing any command to the
CommandReg register.
Remark: If the RxModeReg register’s RxMultiple bit is set to logic 1, the Transceive
command never leaves the receive state because this state cannot be cancelled
automatically.
19.3.1.9 AutoColl
This command automatically handles the MIFARE activation and the FeliCa polling in the
Card Operation mode. The bit Initiator in the register ControlReg has to be set to logic 0
for correct operation. During this command also the mode detector is active if not
deactivated by setting the bit ModeDetOff in the ModeReg register. After the mode
detector detects a mode, all the mode dependent registers are set according to the
received data. In case of no external RF field the command resets the internal state
machine and returns to the initial state but it will not be terminated. When the command
terminates the transceive command gets active.
During protocol processing the IRQ bits are not supported. Only the last received frame
will serve the IRQ’s. The treatment of the TxCRCEn and RxCRCEn bits is different to the
protocol. During ISO/IEC 14443A activation the enable bits are defined by the command
AutoColl. The changes cannot be observed at the register TXModeReg and RXModeReg.
After the Transceive command is active, the value of the register bit is relevant.
The FIFO will also receive the two CRC check bytes of the last command even if they
already checked and correct, if the state machine (Anticollision and Select routine) has to
not been executed and 106 kbit is detected.
During Felica activation the register bit is always relevant and is not overruled by the
command settings. This command can be cleared by software by writing any other
command to the CommandReg register, e.g. the idle command. Writing the same content
again to the CommandReg register resets the state machine.PN512 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP B.V. 2013. All rights reserved.

19.3.1.10 MFAuthent
This command manages MIFARE authentication to enable a secure communication to
any MIFARE Mini, MIFARE 1K and MIFARE 4K card. The following data is written to the
FIFO buffer before the command can be activated:
• Authentication command code (60h, 61h)
• Block address
• Sector key byte 0
• Sector key byte 1
• Sector key byte 2
• Sector key byte 3
• Sector key byte 4
• Sector key byte 5
• Card serial number byte 0
• Card serial number byte 1
• Card serial number byte 2
• Card serial number byte 3
In total 12 bytes are written to the FIFO.
Remark: When the MFAuthent command is active all access to the FIFO buffer is
blocked. However, if there is access to the FIFO buffer, the ErrorReg register’s WrErr bit is
set.
This command automatically terminates when the MIFARE card is authenticated and the
Status2Reg register’s MFCrypto1On bit is set to logic 1.
This command does not terminate automatically if the card does not answer, so the timer
must be initialized to automatic mode. In this case, in addition to the IdleIRq bit, the
TimerIRq bit can be used as the termination criteria. During authentication processing, the
RxIRq bit and TxIRq bit are blocked. The Crypto1On bit is only valid after termination of
the MFAuthent command, either after processing the protocol or writing Idle to the
CommandReg register.
If an error occurs during authentication, the ErrorReg register’s ProtocolErr bit is set to
logic 1 and the Status2Reg register’s Crypto1On bit is set to logic 0.PN512 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP B.V. 2013. All rights reserved.

Especially when using time slot protocols, it is needed that the error flag is copied into the
status information of the frame. When using the RxMultiple feature (see Section 9.2.2.4
on page 39) within version 1.0 the protocol error flag is not included in the status
information for the frame. In addition the CRCOk is copied instead of the CRCErr. This
can be a problem in frames without length information e.g. ISO/IEC 14443-B.
The version 1.0 does not accept a Type B EOF if there is no 1 bit after the series of 0 bits,
as such the configuration within Section 9.2.2.15 “TypeBReg” on page 50 bit 4 for
RxEOFReq does not exist. In addition the IC only has the possibility to select the
minimum or maximum timings for SOF/EOF generation defined in ISO/IEC14443B. As
such the configuration possible in version 2.0 through the EOFSOFAdjust bit (see Section
9.2.4.7 “AutoTestReg” on page 64) does not exist and the configuration is limited to only
setting minimum and maximum length according ISO/IEC 14443-B, see Section 9.2.2.15

NXP Semiconductors MMBZxVCL; MMBZxVDL series
Double ESD protection diodes for transient overvoltage suppression
8. Application information
The MMBZxVCL series and the MMBZxVDL series are designed for the protection of up
to two unidirectional data or signal lines from the damage caused by ESD and surge
pulses. The devices may be used on lines where the signal polarities are either positive or
negative with respect to ground. The devices provide a surge capability of 40 W per line
for a 10/1000 µs waveform.
Circuit board layout and protection device placement
Circuit board layout is critical for the suppression of ESD, Electrical Fast Transient (EFT)
and surge transients. The following guidelines are recommended:
1. Place the devices as close to the input terminal or connector as possible.
2. The path length between the device and the protected line should be minimized.
3. Keep parallel signal paths to a minimum.
4. Avoid running protected conductors in parallel with unprotected conductors.
5. Minimize all Printed-Circuit Board (PCB) conductive loops including power and
ground loops.
6. Minimize the length of the transient return path to ground.
7. Avoid using shared transient return paths to a common ground point.
8. Ground planes should be used whenever possible. For multilayer PCBs, use ground
vias.
9. Test information
9.1 Quality information
This product has been qualified in accordance with the Automotive Electronics Council
(AEC) standard Q101 - Stress test qualification for discrete semiconductors, and is
suitable for use in automotive applications.

Integrated 4-, 6- and 8-channel passive filter network
Due to the optimized silicon dice and package design, all channels in a single package
show a very good matching performance as the insertion loss for a channel at the
package side (e.g. channel 1 to channel 16) is nearly identical with the center channels
(e.g. channel 4 to channel 13).

NXP Semiconductors IP4251/52/53/54-TTL
Integrated 4-, 6- and 8-channel passive filter network
6.2 Selection
The selection of one of the filter devices has to be performed depending on the maximum
clock frequency, driver strength, capacitive load of the sink, and also the maximum
applicable rise and fall times.
6.2.1 SDHC and MMC memory interface
The Secure Digital High Capacity (SDHC) memory card interface standard specification
and the Multi Media Card (MMC) (JESD 84A43) standard specification recommend a rise
and fall time of 25 % to 62.5 % (62.5 % to 25 % respectively) of 3 ns or less for the input
signal of the receiving interface side.
Assuming a typical capacitance of about 20 pF for the SDHC memory card itself, and
approximately 4 pF to 7 pF for the Printed-Circuit Board (PCB) and the card holder,
IP4252CZ12-6-TTL (6 channels, Rs(ch) = 40 Ω, Cch = 12 pF at Vbias(DC) = 2.5 V) is a
matching selection to filter and protect all relevant interface pins such as CLK, CMD, and
DAT0 to DAT3/CD. Please refer to Figure 7 for a general example of the implementation
of the device in an SDHC card interface.
In case additional channels such as write-protect or a mechanical card-detection switch
are used, the IP4252CZ16-8-TTL (8 channels, Rs(ch) = 40 Ω, Cch = 12 pF at
Vbias(DC) = 2.5 V) offers two additional channels.IP4251_52_53_54-TTL All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. © NXP B.V. 2011. All rights reserved.
Product data sheet Rev. 2 — 5 May 2011 10 of 18
NXP Semiconductors IP4251/52/53/54-TTL
Integrated 4-, 6- and 8-channel passive filter network
The capacitance values specified for the signal channels of the MMC interface differ from
the SDHC specification. The MMC card-side interface is specified to have an intrinsic
capacitance of 12 pF to 18 pF and the total channel is limited according to the
specification to 30 pF only. Therefore, any filter device capacitance is limited to a
maximum of up to 18 pF, including the card holder and PCB traces.
Please refer to Figure 8 for a general example of the implementation of the IP4252 in an
MMC interface application.

NXP Semiconductors IP4251/52/53/54-TTL
Integrated 4-, 6- and 8-channel passive filter network
To generate SDHC and MMC-compliant digital signals, the driver strength should not
significantly undercut 8 mA.
6.2.2 LCD interfaces, medium-speed interfaces
For digital interfaces such as LCD interfaces running at clock speeds between 10 MHz
and 25 MHz or more, IP4251, IP4252 or IP4254 can be used depending on the sink load,
clock speed, driver strength and rise and fall time requirements. Also the minimum
EMI filter requirements may be a decision-making factor.
6.2.3 Keypad, low-speed interfaces
Especially for lower-speed interfaces such as keypads, low-speed serial interfaces
(e.g. Recommended Standard (RS) 232) and low-speed control signals,
IP4253 (Rs(ch) = 200 Ω, Cch = 30 pF at Vbias(DC) = 2.5 V) offers a very robust
ESD protection and strong suppression of unwanted frequencies (EMI filtering).
