General Description
The HT6720 is an RF transponder IC with 13.56MHz RF
carrier, which provides a low cost batteryless tran-
sponder solution when combined with an external in-
ductor. The inductor and internal capacitor form an LC
tank which induce voltage from the radiated 13.56MHz
carrier signal generated from the reader antenna.
HT6720 has a built-in low power RC oscillator which is
activated if the induced carrier field strength is high
enough to supply the operating current and the re-
sponse signal (pre-programmed in the OTP memory) is
serially transmitted out. The response data is transmit-
ted using PWM/ASK modulation. Modulation of
13.56MHz is accomplished by damping the LC tank with
a fixed baud rate.
The transmission information is stored in a 96 bits one
time programmable memory OTP, with a 16-bit CRC
code (up to 64 bits reserved for customer). The effective
detection range for a small sized antenna is 2cm~10cm
which is dependent on antenna format & reader design.
The larger the antenna loop used the longer the detec-
tion range. It is advisable to use larger antenna to attain
a 15 cm detection range.
Implementing Holtek¢s advanced OTP and low power
technology, HT6720 offers a very cost effective solution
for RF contactless detection system.
A code area of 64-bits (max.) wide is provided so cus-
tomers can program the device using the specified pro-
grammer supplied by Holtek. The pre-programmed ICs
are also available upon customer¢s request.
