Frequently Asked Questions
Which NFC/RFID tag standards does the ST25R95-VMD5T support, and what is its operating frequency?
The ST25R95-VMD5T operates at 13.56 MHz and supports ISO 14443 Type A, ISO 14443 Type B, and ISO 15693 protocols, covering the vast majority of contactless smart cards and RFID labels in access control, payment, and supply-chain applications. This multi-protocol capability eliminates the need for separate reader ICs when a design must interact with mixed tag populations.
What host interface options does the ST25R95-VMD5T offer, and how does that affect firmware integration?
The ST25R95-VMD5T provides both SPI and UART interfaces, allowing the host microcontroller to select the bus that best matches its available peripherals. SPI operation supports clock rates up to several MHz for fast frame exchange, while UART mode simplifies integration with low-pin-count microcontrollers by requiring only 2 signal wires, reducing firmware complexity and PCB routing.
How does the ST25R95-VMD5T compare to a discrete-component NFC front end for a compact access-control badge reader?
The ST25R95-VMD5T integrates the analog front end, digital demodulator, and protocol state machine into a single 32-pin VFQFPN package with a 5 mm × 5 mm footprint, replacing multiple discrete components and shrinking the reader board area by roughly 40 %. Its on-chip automatic gain control and receiver sensitivity of approximately -60 dBm also reduce antenna tuning iterations compared to discrete solutions.
