Contactless power and sensing ICs

ICs with NFC interface for NFC-based configuration, actuation, sensing, and charging applications

About

Seamless data and power transfer with NFC

Due to the working principle of resonant coupling, power transmission via NFC is efficient and user-friendly because it is less sensitive to antenna alignment. The combination of data exchange and energy transfer in one interface and the availability in billions of smartphones makes NFC an exciting enabler for many novel use cases like: passive smart lock, passive sensor, passive product label, NFC data logger, and passive NFC communication interface for electronic devices.?

Easily program operation parameters with passive NFC configuration

Programming or configuring product operation parameters is sometimes complicated because of access problems or equipment requirements. Using an NFC interface, contactless, or even passive operation can be performed anywhere. Modern LED power supplies are already equipped with the NFC interface to enable operation parameter configuration in production, sales channel, and the field. Infineon¡¯s NLM product series is designed for that purpose and provides value-add features like the Constant Lumen Output (CLO) function.

Novel battery-less NFC actuation and sensing solution

In the IoT age, smart devices help people make their life easier and the end product more sustainable. The NFC technology provides an option to develop battery-less smart devices that operate when the NFC reader device, like a mobile phone, is present. As a complement to mainstream active IoT technology, passive NFC technology is suitable for use cases like a passive smart lock or passive sensor inlay. Infineon¡¯s NFC tag-side controller family supports customers to develop cost-effective, miniaturized, actuation, or sensing applications operating in either passive or active mode.

Wireless charging for compact devices

With the advantage of small antenna size and the capability of data and power transfer in one interface, NFC technology is a unique solution to enable wireless charging with in-band communication for low power, compact devices like hearing aids, earbuds, stylus, and smart ring. NFC Forum released a specification for NFC wireless charging up to 1 W. Infineon is developing highly integrated solution to provide 1.2 W received power with ultra-small PCB space requirement.??
