ANT7-M24LR16E
Data brief
The ANT7-M24LR16E antenna allows system
designers to evaluate the M24LR16E-R
performance and capabilities, and to get started
with their design.
The ANT7-M24LR16E antenna reference board is
a ready-to-use PCB that features an M24LR16ER Dual Interface EEPROM IC connected to a
15 mm x 15 mm 13.56 MHz etched RF double
layer antenna on one side, and to an I
the other side.

To demonstrate the energy harvesting function,
the ANT7-M24LR16E can be used in conjunction
with ST DEMO-CR95HF-A demonstration board.
The application can be powered directly from the
M24LR16E-R V
OUT
pin.
The ANT7-M24LR16E Gerber files can be
downloaded from http://www.st.com.

Associated firmware and PC software
The ANT7-M24LR16E board is supported by a PC software, the Dual Interface EEPROM
tool software, that allows to configure and control the energy harvesting. This software is
available from http://www.st.com.
Refer to application note AN3954 “Developing your own Visual Basic or C/C++ application
on a DEMO-CR95HF-A demonstration board”, for how to adapt the PC software for your
application.
