[1] X = Do not care.
The following abbreviations have been used in Table 15 and Table 16:
RF: 13.56 MHz clock derived from 27.12 MHz quartz crystal oscillator divided by 2
RF_n: inverted 13.56 MHz clock
GSPMos: conductance, configuration of the PMOS array
GSNMos: conductance, configuration of the NMOS array
pCW: PMOS conductance value for continuous wave defined by the CWGsPReg
register
pMod: PMOS conductance value for modulation defined by the ModGsPReg register
nCW: NMOS conductance value for continuous wave defined by the GsNReg
register’s CWGsN[3:0] bits
nMod: NMOS conductance value for modulation defined by the GsNReg register’s
ModGsN[3:0] bits
X = do not care.
Remark: If only one driver is switched on, the values for CWGsPReg, ModGsPReg and
GsNReg registers are used for both drivers.
