Detailed Description

13.56 MHz high-frequency RFID/NFC reader/writer transceiver IC designed for multi-protocol contactless applications. Integrates the RF front end, modulation/demodulation, framing, and host interface to simplify system design. Suitable for standards-compliant tag reading and writing with low power use and a compact footprint.

Key Features

13.56 MHz HF RFID reader/writer operation

Multi-protocol support (ISO/IEC 15693, ISO/IEC 18000-3, ISO/IEC 14443 types, and other common HF tag families)

On-chip modulation/demodulation and data framing

Flexible host interfaces (SPI and parallel interface options)

Programmable output power and modulation depth

Low-power and standby modes for battery-powered designs

Integrated oscillator and regulators to reduce external parts

Interrupts and status reporting for responsive firmware control

Anticollision and CRC handling per supported standards

Small VQFN package with exposed pad for thermal performance

Key Advantages

Highly integrated solution reduces BOM and speeds development

Multi-standard compatibility enables broad tag ecosystem support

Compact package saves PCB area in space-limited designs

Flexible interfaces simplify MCU/SoC integration

Low-power features extend battery life in portable devices

Robust RF front end improves read range and reliability

Backed by TI ecosystem, documentation, and design tools

Packaging

Type: TI RHB package (VQFN), 32 pins with exposed thermal pad

Material: Molded plastic QFN with copper lead frame and NiPdAu lead finish

Size: Approx. 5 mm x 5 mm body, low profile height

Pin configuration: 32 perimeter pads plus center exposed pad (tie EP to ground plane per TI layout guide)

Thermal characteristics: Exposed pad improves heat spreading and lowers thermal resistance; follow TI recommended land pattern and via stitching

Electrical properties: HF RF transceiver pins for TX/RX, supply and interface pins for SPI/parallel, programmable power settings; ESD protection per TI spec (see datasheet)

Shipment format: Typically Tape & Reel for production; tray options may be available

Distributor case reference: 1057 (as provided)

Available quantity: 2200 units (current listing)

Lifecycle

Status: Active and widely used; not indicated as near end-of-life

Recommended for new designs: TI often suggests TRF7960A (enhanced version) or TRF7970A (adds full NFC including peer-to-peer) depending on application needs

Equivalent/alternative models:

- TRF7960A (pin-compatible family upgrade with performance improvements)

- TRF7970A (13.56 MHz NFC/RFID transceiver with NFC active/passive modes)

- TRF7962 family variants (protocol-specific options depending on requirement)
