PN7120, the best plug'n play full NFC solution - easy integration into any OSenvironment, with integrated firmware and NCI interface designed for contactlesscommunication at 13.56 MHz.

It is the ideal solution for rapidly integrating NFC technology in any application,especially those running O/S environment like Linux and Android, reducing Bill ofMaterial (BOM) size and cost, thanks to: full NFC forum compliancy with small form factor antenna embedded NFC firmware providing all NFC protocols as pre-integratedfeature direct connection to the main host or microcontroller, by I2C-busphysical and NCI protocol ultra-low power consumption in polling loop mode Highly efficient integrated power management unit (PMU) allowing directsupply from a battery

PN7120 embeds a new generation RF contactless front-end supporting various transmissionmodes according to NFCIP-1 and NFCIP-2, ISO/IEC14443, ISO/IEC 15693, ISO/IEC 18000-3,MIFARE and FeliCa specifications. It embeds an ARM Cortex-M0 microcontroller core loadedwith the integrated firmware supporting the NCI 1.0 host communication.

The contactless front-end design brings a major performance step-up with on one hand ahigher sensitivity and on the other hand the capability to work in active loadmodulation communication enabling the support of small antenna form factor.

For contactless card functionality, the PN7120 can act autonomously if previouslyconfigured by the host in such a manner.

PN7120 integrated firmware provides an easy integration and validation cycle as all theNFC real-time constraints, protocols and device discovery (polling loop) are being takencare internally. In few NCI commands, host SW can configure the PN7120 to notify forcard or peer detection and start communicating with them.
