WkUpCD Mode Example Timing Diagram when WkFDEn=0 and WkCDGoActive=1
The two figures above show the example timing of WkUpCD mode. When WkT_Trig signal from wake up
counter is asserted, the device will change from Sleep phase to Detect phase. The system waits until clock from
crystal oscillator is stabled, XTAL_Ready=“1”, for starting the sequence. If WkFDEn bit (Sector0-0x31.4) is
cleared, the system skips FieldDetect mode and directly executes CardDetect mode. When WkFDEn bit (Sector0-
0x31.4) is set, FieldDetect mode is firstly executed to prevent RF Field collision. If external RF field is occurred,
RxIRq is set and system will go to Sleep phase immediately. On the other side, if external RF level is lower than
set FDThreshold, CardDetect mode is executed.
After CardDetect mode is finished, the CDIRq is set when measured RF amplitude is fluctuated beyond
CDThreshold level. The system re-enters Sleep phase when WkCDGoActive bit (Sector0-0x31.6) is cleared. If
WkCDGoActive is set and CdIRq is set, the system will automatically go to active state and ready to execute
further operation.
The current consumption load profile in the Wake Up Card Detection mode is roughly shown in following figure.
After WkTimer is underflowed, the device is woken up. In t
0
phase, initial wake up, current consumption and
period are depended on crystal oscillator start up time. At t
1
period, the internal circuit is enabled and delay for
voltage stable before measurement. While transmitter is enabled with a short time configured by CDTxDelay, t
2
period, the additional current consumption from transmitter is depended on antenna tuning. The last t
3
period is
ADC conversion period depends on configuration. The timing, t
1
, t
2
and t
3
can be configured by register described
in the “RF Amplitude Detector System” section.
