NTP5210 NTAG 5 switch - NFC Forum-compliant PWM and GPIO bridge Rev. 3.3 3 July 2020 Product data sheet 544633 COMPANY PUBLIC 1 General description Designed as an MCU replacement in various gaming and lighting applications, this NFC tag adds connectivity and increases flexibility while saving energy and lowering the bill of materials. NXP s NTAG 5 switch lets designers eliminate the MCU in selected gaming and lighting applications and other cost sensitive designs, for added functionality, connectivity, and efficiency at a lower cost. Operating at 13.56 MHz, it is an NFC Forum-compliant (customer development board is NFC Forum certified - Certification ID: 58626) contactless tag that can be read by any NFC-enabled device at close range and by an ISO/IEC 15693-enabled industrial reader over a longer range. Easy configuration supports a range of control functions, and the integrated originality check lets the user verify an end products authenticity. PWM EEPROM GPIO energy harvesting data event detection energy energy aaa-034219 Figure 1.NTAG 5 switch overview In some lighting and gaming applications, NTAG 5 switch enables simple and cost- effective designs without a microcontroller. It implements multiplexed pins, offering general-purpose I/O (GPIO) and pulse width modulation (PWM) as well as NFC field detection. The characteristics of the PWM or GPIO signal can be configured through the NFC interface. These features can be used to switch on/off and control motor speed or LED brightness. Support for ISO/IEC 15693 lets the NTAG 5 switch communicate securely in two ways with powerful industrial readers, at a range of up to 60 cm and with NFC-enabled devices within proximity range. This duality makes it possible for the device to be calibrated and parameterized automatically while in the factory and then, when put to use in the field, safely communicate with contactless devices such as NFCenabled smartphones. The tags 512 bytes of memory can be divided into three areas, and each area can use a different protection level, varying from no protection to 32-/64-bit, password-protected read/write access. Different parties in the value chain can have their own dedicated memory areas for storing access data. ISO/IEC 15693NXP Semiconductors NTP5210 NTAG 5 switch - NFC Forum-compliant PWM and GPIO bridge The NTAG 5 switch comes with pre-programmed proof-of-origin functionality to verify authenticity. The elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) based originality signature can be locked or reprogrammed by the customer. The NTAG 5 is a powerhouse, harvesting the energy from an NFC Reader, it can operate without a battery. Better yet, with its configurable output voltage, it can power a circuit, a sensor network and even charge a super capacitor wireless.
