General Description
The BC45B4523 is a single-chip reader ASIC for
13.56MHz NFC/contactless standard protocols,
which provides the best solution for near field
wireless communication applications such as access
control locks, label readers, payment machines.
The device supports and compatibles with all major
global secured baseband ISO standards including
ISO14443 Type A, Type B, Crypto_M cards and
Smart label ISO15693. The device provides a high-
speed SPI controller/host interface with an integrated
64-byte FIFO for smooth data transfer. Furthermore,
the embedded codec is capable of handling all bit-
level coding/decoding, encrypting/decrypting as well
as frame-level manipulation for transmission and
reception. The device is well suited for mobile devices
due to its low power consumption and low operating
voltage from 2.7V to 3.6V. The ultra-low power on-
chip 3.3V regulator is provided to stabilize the device
power, and simultaneously supply power of up to
150mA to the external companion microcontroller.
The BC45B4523 receiver circuit has integrated a full
AGC loop allowing a wide dynamic range of RF input
signal levels. The excellent sensitivity performance of
the device enables detection of the input signals with
