Antenna Connector
XRAV-1 is a kind of NFC (Near Field Communication) module that could be embedded in one IT
system by simply connecting the module through I2C interface and start developing his application
software.
2. Hardware Block Diagram
XRAV-1 is a full feature NFC module and compliant with NFC standards (NFC Forum, EMVCo,
ETSI/SCP). XRAV-1 has an optimized architecture for low-power consumption in different
operation modes. The RF contactless front-end is supporting various transmission modes according
to NFCIP-1, NFCIP-2, ISO/IEC14443, ISO/IEC 15693, ISO-14443, MIFARE, and FeliCa
specifications. The major internal components are illustrated in Figure 1-1.
Note:
• Host FPC/FFC Connector:
Allow user to connect the XRAV-1 module to the host board via FPC/FFC connector.
• Antenna Connector:
Connected to FPC antenna, please note that matching circuitry should be design on antenna.
