works around certain device and protocol limitations.
Management of the TRF7960 and TRF7960A Start-up Sequence
minimizing the current draw of TRF7960, TRF7960A, and their variants systems at start-up
time need guidance about handling the Regulator Control register (0x0B) value. Valid
application use case for this guidance is battery-powered RFID applications in which
controlling the entire system current draw over time is of the utmost concern.
TRF7960A RFID Multiplexer Example System
frequency (HF) (13.56 MHz) RFID reader system (based on the TRF7960A IC) designed by
TI for customer use. The system firmware resides on an MSP430F2370 MCU and supports
the ISO/IEC 15693 protocol in addition to communication with a host.
Firmware Description of the TI TRF796x Evaluation Module (EVM)
firmware implemented in the MSP430F2370 (a 16-bit ultra-low power microcontroller from
the TI MSP430 family) used with the TRF796x devices.
Comparison of TRF7960 and TRF7960A
TRF7960 high-frequency RFID/NFC reader understand the differences between the
TRF7960 and the TRF7960A devices. Understanding these differences in detail and
applying this knowledge to application-specific requirements helps designers make informed
decisions about whether or not a bill of materials change is needed.
