1. Introduction
This document describes the functionality and electrical specifications of the
transceiver IC PN512.
2. General description
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.
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.
