PN series is Near Field Communication (NFC) chips produced by NXP Semiconductor, which can enable wireless proximity communication at 13.56 MHz frequency that is compatible with NFC standards (NFC Forum, NCI).
Features
PN7160/PN7161 is an NFC controller with integrated firmware and NCI interface, which supports various transmission modes such as NFCIP-1, NFCIP-2, ISO/IEC14443, ISO/IEC 15693, MIFARE, and FeliCa. It has the advantages of low power consumption, high sensitivity, small antenna size, and autonomous PICC functionality. It can be used in mobile devices and other devices that require NFC functionality.
Applications
PN512 is a highly integrated NFC Forum-compliant frontend for contactless communication at 13.56 MHz. The PN512 uses an outstanding modulation and demodulation concept integrated for different contactless communication methods and protocols. It has an integrated polling loop for automatic device discovery. It can be used for applications such as reader/writer, card emulation and peer-to-peer communication.
