PN512

Full NFC Forum-compliant frontend

Additionally, the PN512 NFC frontend offers the possibility to communicate directly to an

NFCIP-1 device in the NFCIP-1 mode. The NFCIP-1 mode offers different communication

mode and transfer speeds up to 424 kbit/s according to the Ecma 340 and ISO/IEC 18092

NFCIP-1 Standard. The digital part handles the complete NFCIP-1 framing and error

detection.

Various host controller interfaces are implemented:

• 8-bit parallel interface

• SPI interface

• serial UART (similar to RS232 with voltage levels according pad voltage supply)

• I

C interface.

1.1 Different available versions

The PN512 is available in three versions:

• PN5120A0HN1/C2 (HVQFN32), PN5120A0HN/C2 (HVQFN40) and PN5120A0ET/C2

(TFBGA64), hereafter named as version 2.0

• PN512AA0HN1/C2 (HVQFN32) and PN512AA0HN1/C2BI (HVQFN32 with Burn In),

hereafter named as industrial version, fulfilling the automotive qualification stated in

AEC-Q100 grade 3 from the Automotive Electronics Council, defining the critical

stress test qualification for automotive integrated circuits (ICs).

The customer recognizes that:

– since the product was not originally designed for automotive use, it will not be

possible to achieve the levels of quality and failure analysis that are normally

associated with products explicitly designed for automotive use.

– the product qualification conforms to AEC-Q100.

– all product production locations are certified according to TS16949.

• PN5120A0HN1/C1(HVQFN32) and PN5120A0HN/C1 (HVQFN40), hereafter named

as version 1.0

The data sheet describes the functionality for the industrial version and version 2.0. The

differences of the version 1.0 to the version 2.0 are summarized in Section 20

. The

industrial version has only differences within the outlined characteristics and limitations.

1. 8-bit parallel Interface only available in HVQFN40 package.
