Key Features
- Multi-protocol NFC reader supporting ISO 14443 A/B, ISO 15693, and ISO 18092 (NFC-F) up to 848 kbps for broad contactless card and tag compatibility
- Integrated low-noise amplifier and EMD suppression enable reliable card detection in electrically noisy industrial environments
- Compact 36-ball chip-scale BGA (6 mm x 6 mm) with 2.6 V to 5.5 V supply range fits tightly into payment terminals and wearable NFC readers
Applications
The ST25R3916B-BWLT is designed for contactless payment terminals, access control readers, and industrial RFID systems where multi-protocol NFC compliance and high RF output power are required. Its integrated EMD suppression and automatic gain control simplify antenna tuning in metal-framed enclosures typical of retail POS devices and smart door locks. The chip-scale BGA form factor and 2.6 V to 5.5 V supply range make it equally suitable for wearable IoT devices and battery-powered handheld NFC readers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which NFC protocols and data rates does the ST25R3916B-BWLT support for contactless payment certification?
The ST25R3916B-BWLT supports ISO 14443 A and B up to 848 kbps, ISO 15693 at 26.48 kbps, and ISO 18092 NFC-F at 212 kbps and 424 kbps. This multi-protocol coverage satisfies EMVCo Level 1 contactless payment requirements and enables a single hardware design to read credit cards, transit passes, and industrial RFID labels without changing the RF front end.
How does the ST25R3916B-BWLT perform in a metal-enclosed access control reader where antenna detuning is a concern?
The ST25R3916B-BWLT includes an automatic antenna tuning circuit and EMD suppression filters that compensate for the capacitive loading that metal enclosures impose on the antenna coil. In a typical 13.56 MHz near-field link, these features maintain a reliable read range of at least 3 cm to 5 cm even with metal panels within 10 mm of the antenna, reducing the need for manual re-tuning during installation.
What external component count does the 36-ball BGA package of the ST25R3916B-BWLT allow compared to larger NFC reader ICs?
The chip-scale 6 mm × 6 mm BGA footprint allows the complete NFC front end, including the matching network and decoupling capacitors, to fit within a 15 mm × 20 mm area. Compared to QFN-32 or larger NFC reader packages requiring additional clearance, the BGA format reduces the total RF section PCB area by roughly 30%, an important saving in slim payment card readers and wristband-format wearables operating from a 3.3 V supply.
