SIC4310 NFC Enabler

This application is designed to support SIC4310 development kits developed by Silicon Craft Technology Ltd. (SIC). The NFC Enabler (SIC4310) is a dual-interface ISO14443A RFID tag, interfacing with both RF and UART. NFC Enabler is designed to be used in a various types of applications such as home appliances, personal healthcare, sport and fitness devices, etc. The key challenge is to deploy a low-cost NFC tag instead of an expensive full functional reader IC and use smartphones as a hub of information. As a result, this concept will enable a tremendous number of NFC applications on the smartphones.

Main features of SIC4310

• RF interface based on ISO14443A at 106 kbps
• UART interface 9600 to 115200 bps
• 8 programmable GPIOs
• Activity indicator pins (RF detection, RF busy and power ready)
• 228-byte EEPROM accessible from RF and UART

NOTE: The application only supports NFC Enabler SIC4310 ICs from Silicon Craft Technology.

The demo applications are as follows.

1. GPIOs control
2. LEDs control
3. LCD control
4. Temperature sensor
5. SIC commands
