PN7150 NFC controller SBC kit
2 Introduction
The present document describes the OM5578/PN7150S demonstration kit, a flexible and
easy-to-use Single Board Computer (SBC) Kit for the PN7150 NFC controller.
It enables the development of an NFC solution based on PN7150 in a Linux or Android
environment or even in system based on RTOS or without OS.
It exists in different configurations:
•OM5578/PN7150RPI to be used with Raspberry Pi platform (see [1])
•OM5578/PN7150BBB to be used with BeagleBone Interface Board (see [2])
•OM5578/PN7150ARD to be used with platforms offering Arduino compatible interface
(see [3]), like LPCXpresso (see [5]) or Kinetis Freedom (see [4]).
This document presents first an overview of the kit.
Then, it gives printed circuit boards details.
Finally, it provides information for reuse of the kit in different environments.
This kit is registered as FCC certified module (FCC ID: OWROM5578-PN7150S).
Errata: First batch of demo kits were released with beta version of PN7150 IC. Those
can be identified looking to the PN7150 version number (see chapter §6.2 in UM10936
[7]): Manufacturer-specific information in CORE_INIT_RSP is 0x88100110 for PN7150
beta release while it is 0x881001A0 for the production release.
The main limitation of the beta release resides in the missing support for the
TEST_GET_REGISTER_CMD/RSP (see description in UM10936 [7] chapter §12.4)
which may be used during the matching process (as described in AN11755 [8] chapter).

3.2 PN7150 NFC controller board
The OM5578 PN7150 NFC controller board is high performance fully NFC-compliant
expansion board, meeting compliance with reader mode, P2P mode and card emulation
mode standards.
The board features an integrated high performance RF antenna to insure high
interoperability level with NFC devices.
It has to be used in association with one interface board according to the targeted user
environment. For this purpose, it integrates the NFC generic interface allowing assembly
with OM29110 Interface boards (see [6]).
