Datasheet - production data
Description
The ST25R3910 is a high performance
13.56 MHz RFID reader, with two differential, low
impedance (1.5 Ohm) antenna drivers.
These drivers are unmatched, allowing the
ST25R3910 to deliver up to eight times the output
power of a standard HF reader IC using the same
power supply voltage, and reducing in half the
power consumption at the same output power.
The ST25R3910 can operate already at 2.4 V,
with a low power operating mode of 5 mA, making
it perfectly suited for portable or battery-powered
applications.
For applications where high power is required the
ST25R3910 can deliver up to 700 mW, thus
avoiding the need for complex external booster
circuitry.
The component count and complexity of the
design is further reduced through automatic
modulation depth adjustment.
The analog front end (AFE) is complemented by a
highly integrated data framing engine for both
ISO-14443 A and B. This includes data rates up
to 848 kbit/s, with all framing and synchronization
tasks on board. This enables to build a complete
HF RFID reader using only a low end MCU.
The ST25R3910 supports reader to tag and Peer
to Peer communication using the NFCIP-1 active
communication mode with a 106 kbps data rate.
Other standard and custom protocols, such as
ISO-15693 or FeliCa^™ can be implemented via
transparent mode. The ST25R3910 features a
SPI, which enables bi-directional communication
with the external microcontroller.
The ST25R3910 also features the Automatic
Antenna Tuning (AAT) technology, enabling the
reader to re tune itself to deliver maximum output
at 13.56 MHz, when the surroundings detune the
antenna.
