STMicroelectronics X-NUCLEO-NFC12A1 NFC Card Reader Expansion Board

STMicroelectronics X-NUCLEO-NFC12A1 NFC Card Reader Expansion Board is based on the ST25R300, a high-end NFC reader. The expansion board is configured to support all five NFC Forum tag types in reader mode.

The STMicroelectronics ST25R300 manages frame coding and decoding in reader mode for standard applications. It supports ISO/IEC 14443 type A/B and ISO/IEC 15693 (single subcarrier only) and ISO/IEC 18092 communication protocols, and the detection, reading, and writing of NFC Forum type 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 tags.

The PCB and the related tuning circuit are etched with an integrated HF reader/NFC initiator/NFC target IC with an antenna.
