Status Registers

Table 5-22. IRQ Status Register (0Ch)

Displays the cause of IRQ and TX/RX status

Register default is set to 0x00 at POR = H or EN = L, and at each write to the ISO control register. It is also automatically reset at the end
of a read phase. The reset also removes the IRQ flag.

Irq_tx

IRQ set due to end of TX

Signals that TX is in progress. The flag is set at the start of TX but the
interrupt request is sent when TX is finished.

Irg_srx

IRQ set due to RX start

Signals that RX SOF was received and RX is in progress. The flag is set at
the start of RX but the interrupt request is sent when RX is finished.

Irq_fifo

Signals the FIFO is 1/3

FIFO

Signals FIFO high or low (less than 4 or more than 8)

2/3

Irq_err1

CRC error

Indicates receive CRC error

Irq_err2

Parity error

Indicates parity error

Irq_err3

Byte framing or EOF error

Indicates framing error

Irq_col

Collision error

For ISO14443A and ISO15693 single sub-carrier

Irq_noresp

No-response interrupt

Signal to MCU that next slot command can be sent
