MFRC631
High performance ISO/IEC 14443 A/B reader solution
8.4.2.2 Read data
To read out data from the MFRC631 by using the SPI compatible interface the following
byte order has to be used.
The first byte that is sent defines the mode (LSB bit) and the address.
Remark: The Most Significant Bit (MSB) has to be sent first.
8.4.2.3 Write data
To write data to the MFRC631 using the SPI interface the following byte order has to be
used. It is possible to write more than one byte by sending a single address byte
(see.8.5.2.4).
The first send byte defines both, the mode itself and the address byte.
Remark: The Most Significant Bit (MSB) has to be sent first.
8.4.2.4 Address byte
The address byte has to fulfil the following format:
The LSB bit of the first byte defines the used mode. To read data from the MFRC631 the
LSB bit is set to logic 1. To write data to the MFRC631 the LSB bit has to be cleared. The
bits 6 to 0 define the address byte.
NOTE: When writing the sequence [address byte][data1][data2][data3]..., [data1] is written
to address [address byte], [data2] is written to address [address byte + 1] and [data3] is
written to [address byte + 2].
Exception: This auto increment of the address byte is not performed if data is written to
the FIFO address
8.4.2.5 Timing Specification SPI
The timing condition for SPI interface is as follows:
