I/O Level Shifter Supply: VDD_I/O
The TRF7962A has a separate supply input VDD_I/O (pin 16) for the build in I/O level shifter. The
supported input voltage ranges from 1.8 V to VIN, however not exceeding 5.5 V. Pin 16 is used to supply
the I/O interface pins (I/O_0 to I/O_7), IRQ, SYS_CLK, and DATA_CLK pins of the reader. In typical
applications, VDD_I/O is directly connected to VDD_X while VDD_X also supplies the MCU. This ensures
that the I/O signal levels of the MCU match with the logic levels of the TRF7962A.
Negative Supply Connections: VSS, VSS_RX, VSS_A, VSS_PA
The negative supply connections VSS_X of each functional block are all externally connected to GND.
The substrate connection is VSS (pin 10), the analog negative supply is VSS_A (pin 15), the logic
negative supply is VSS_D (pin 29), the RF output stage negative supply is VSS_PA (pin 6), and the
negative supply for the RF receiver VSS_RX (pin 7).
5.4 Supply Regulator Settings
The input supply voltage mode of the reader must be selected. This is done in the Chip Status Control
register (0x00). Bit 0 in register 0x00 selects between 5-V or 3-V input supply voltage. The default
configuration is 5 V, which reflects an operating supply voltage range of 4.3 V to 5.5 V. If the supply
voltage is below 4.3 V, the 3-V configuration should be used.
The various regulators can be configured to operate in automatic or manual mode. This is done in the
Regulator and I/O Control register (0x0B) as shown in Table 5-1.
