UM2252 Component description 4.2.2 ST25R3911B schematic diagram The ST25R3911B is directly connected to the filtered 5 V USB supply. There are additional supply filtering components placed close to the NFC/HF reader IC. Jumper JP200 can be used to measure the chip supply current. If this measurement is performed, the ferrite beat L301 has to be removed. -

Page 15: Antenna And Matching Network Components
The matching topology supports the connection of one custom differential antenna or two single-ended antennas. The two single-ended antennas can then be multiplexed in software using the single and rfo2 bits of IO Configuration Register 1. www.st.com/st25r Further information about antenna matching can be found at DocID030806 Rev 2... -

Page 17: Pcb Layout
UM2252 Component description PCB Layout 4.3.1 PCB layers As the ST25R3911B is a high power RF transmitter, the NFC reader layout must be done carefully. The decoupling capacitors are located as close as possible to the positive and negative power supply pins (for example VSP_RF and VSN_RF). Since the chip is using a differential output driver stage, the antenna matching network is treated as a differential network. -
