Quick Start
1. Plug the TRF7960TB module into the microcontroller development platform of choice.
NOTE:
If using the DK-LM3S9B96 board, remove the SDRAM module and replace it with the
DK-LM3S9B96-EM2 interface board before mounting the TRF7960TB module.
2. Apply power
3. Load base application firmware specific to platform working with.
4. Test for basic communication and functionality.
5. Modify and debug code as desired for specific application or protocol.
6. Test for advanced functionality as implemented by modified code.

–
ISO15693 UID and Block 0 Read/Automatic Product ID Demo
This code displays a single ISO15693 UID, RSSI Value, and Block 0 Read/Automatic Product ID
Demo on the LCD. If more tags are in the field, or if a different protocol is desired, this code
requires use of the TRF7960 PC-based GUI to display multiple tags or interact with other
protocol-based transponders.
