1. Introduction
The present document describes the OM5578/PN7150S demonstration kit, a flexible and
easy-to-use Single Board Computer (SBC) Kit for the PN7150 NFC Controller.
It enables the development of an NFC solution based on PN7150 in a Linux, Android or
Windows for IoT environment or even in system based on RTOS or without OS.
It exists in different configurations:
- OM5578/PN7150RPI to be used with Raspberry Pi platform (see [1])
- OM5578/PN7150BBB to be used with BeagleBone Interface Board (see [2])
- OM5578/PN7150ARD to be used with platforms offering Arduino compatible
interface (see [3]), like LPCXpresso (see [5]) or Kinetis Freedom (see [4]).
This document presents first an overview of the kit.
Then, it gives printed circuit boards details.
Finally, it provides information for reuse of the kit in different environments.
This kit is registered as FCC certified module (FCC ID: OWROM5578-PN7150S)

2.2 PN7150 NFC Controller Board
The OM5578 PN7150 NFC Controller Board is high performance fully NFC compliant
expansion board, meeting compliance with Reader mode, P2P mode and Card emulation
mode standards.
The board features an integrated high performance RF antenna to insure high
interoperability level with NFC devices.
It has to be used in association with one interface board according to the targeted user
environment. For this purpose it integrates the NFC generic interface allowing assembly
with OM29110 Interface boards (see [6]).
