Activating multiple Tags using NFC Reader Library

Hello NFC enthusiasts,   In the NFC communication protocol, when a device acts as a NFC reader (it provides its own field), it is waiting for a tag to approach. When this occurs, the reader energizes the tag and depending on the application, it can read from or write to a tag.   When multiple tags are in the field, the power decreases according to the number of tags being energized, for which the tag operations will not work properly. For this, there is a process called anti-collision, in which the reader decides, from the detected tags, one to work with.   The purpose of this document is to demonstrate the activation of each tag at a given index.   This demonstration is going to be made with two NTAG 216.     This demonstration is based on NXP NFC Reader Library v05.02.00, NfcrdlibEx3_NFCForum project for PNEV7462B, in which some modifications are going to be made in order to carry this out. These tags are compliant with NFC Forum Type 2 Tag and ISO/IEC14443 Type A specifications.    In phacDiscLoop.h modify the max number of cards supported (two cards for this demonstration):   #define PHAC_DISCLOOP_CFG_MAX_CARDS_SUPPORTED 0x02U      In NfcrdlibEx3_NFCForum.c add the following code in LoadDiscoveryConfiguration():   static phStatus_t LoadDiscoveryConfiguration() { ... /*Passive max typea devices*/ status = phacDiscLoop_SetConfig(pDiscLoop, PHAC_DISCLOOP_CONFIG_TYPEA_DEVICE_LIMIT, 2); CHECK_STATUS(status); }   A fix to the SW stack has to be made (Fix will be implemented in the next release): open "phacDiscLoop_Sw_Int_A.c", line 511, change if statement as below.     if((pDataParams->sTypeATargetInfo.bTotalTagsFound > 1) && ((bTypeATagIdx) < pDataParams->sTypeATargetInfo.bTotalTagsFound))     Until now, the reader is able to detect a maximum of two tags and work with up to two type A devices.   The activation of a tag at a given index is possible to the phacDiscLoop_ActivateCard() function.   Once this function is called, it will receive the discovery loop data parameters, the type of tag and the index of a tag to be activated.   The code will be added after knowing that multiple tags are detected and resolved in the NfcrdlibEx3_NFCForum.c file.   else if((status & PH_ERR_MASK) == PHAC_DISCLOOP_MULTI_DEVICES_RESOLVED) { /* * Multiple cards resolved. It enters here if DEVICE LIMIT > 1 and more than one devices are * detected and resolved. */ DEBUG_PRINTF (" \n Multiple cards resolved: \n"); /* Get detected technology type */ status = phacDiscLoop_GetConfig(pDiscLoop, PHAC_DISCLOOP_CONFIG_TECH_DETECTED, &wTagsDetected); CHECK_STATUS(status); /* Get number of tags detected */ status = phacDiscLoop_GetConfig(pDiscLoop, PHAC_DISCLOOP_CONFIG_NR_TAGS_FOUND, &wNumberOfTags); CHECK_STATUS(status); DEBUG_PRINTF ("\tNumber of tags: %d \n",wNumberOfTags); /* Code */ ... } Note: The code to be inserted in the comment /* Code */ is below in the Code section of this document.   The demonstration will be as simple as activating one tag, read its NDEF message, activate the second tag and read its NDEF message as well so that we make sure the activation process is performed correctly.   Each tag was previously written with a text NDEF message respectively.   Tag 1: Text: Hallo! Language: de   Tag 2: Text: ¡Hola! Language: es   Writing to a tag can be done by making use of our TagWriter app available in the play store: NFC TagWriter by NXP - Aplicaciones de Android en Google Play    Code section:   uint8_t bTagState1; /* Tag 1 */ /* Activate tag at index 0 */ status = phacDiscLoop_ActivateCard(pDataParams, PHAC_DISCLOOP_TECH_TYPE_A, 0x00); /* Check for NDEF presence */ status = phalTop_CheckNdef(palTop, &bTagState1); /* Read NDEF message */ status = ReadNdefMessage(PHAL_TOP_TAG_TYPE_T2T_TAG); DEBUG_ERROR_PRINT(status); /* Tag 2 */ /* Activate tag at index 1 */ status = phacDiscLoop_ActivateCard(pDataParams, PHAC_DISCLOOP_TECH_TYPE_A, 0x01); /* Check for NDEF presence */ status = phalTop_CheckNdef(palTop, &bTagState1); /* Read NDEF message */ status = ReadNdefMessage(PHAL_TOP_TAG_TYPE_T2T_TAG); DEBUG_ERROR_PRINT(status);   Behavior shown in the console monitor:   NFC Forum Example:       This implementation demonstrated the activation of two type A tags at a given index. I hope this is of great help!   Best regards, Ivan. Original Attachment has been moved to: Project-files.zip

How To Add Password Protection On NDEF Messages In NTAG I2C Plus

The demonstration aims at how to protect the NDEF messages in the NTAG, here we use OM5569-NT322ER | NTAG I2C plus Explorer Kit + reader | NXP  as this dev kit contains NTAG as well as the NFC reader. The NTAG I2C plus has the unprotected memory starting from page 04h of sector 0, and NDEF messages are stored there. Referring to 8.3.11 of the data sheet, AUTH0 specifies the starting page to be protected, ACCESS[NFC_PROT] enables read&write password protection from NFC interface, PWD and PACK are for password configuration, but before changing any of above , you have to do a password authentication as below: Then you may select sector 0 and read the contents starting from E3h. Here FFh is the default value for AUTH0.  Now you may change the AUTH0,ACCESS[NFC_PROT] , PWD and PACK as you wish, for example, something like below: read the data from E3h to E6h and change the corresponding bytes in one write. The video shows how to read the NDEF message under password protection.

Guide For Creating PN7462 SPIM demo based on NFC reader library

SPIM module is one of the master interfaces provided by PN7462 , which is a 32-bit ARM Cortex-M0-based NFC microcontroller, and users may use this interface to connect with up to two SPI slave devices. The NFC reader library provides SPIM driver code in phHal/phhalSPIM, and users may directly use the following APIs in their application to implement simple SPI transaction, just like what is done  in the demo of "PN7462AU_ex_phExHif". While this demo has limitation with some SPI nor flash devices, which need a write-read operation in one NSS session, for example, the SPI nor flash device on OM27462 as below: Please note to solder R202 and connect it to 3V3 to make sure nHold pin has pull-up out of POR. The following is one of the command sets this device supports: This command contains 1 write(9F) followed by 3 read operations in one NSS session, but if you implement it with phhalSPIM_Transmit() and phhalSPIM_Receive() as below: status = phhalSPIM_Transmit(PH_EXHIF_HW_SPIM_SLAVE, PH_EXHIF_HW_SPIM_INIT_CRC, PH_EXHIF_HW_SPIM_APPEND_CRC, PH_EXHIF_HW_SPIM_CRC_INIT, 2, cmd_buf, PH_EXHIF_HW_SPIM_CRC_OFFSET);    status = phhalSPIM_Receive(PH_EXHIF_HW_SPIM_SLAVE, PH_EXHIF_HW_SPIM_INIT_CRC, PH_EXHIF_HW_SPIM_CRC_INIT, data_length, dst, PH_EXHIF_HW_SPIM_CRC_OFFSET);" You will have the following result: expected: NSS   \__________________________/ MOSI     CMD A7-A0 MISO                            DATA       actual:                         NSS   \____________||______________/ MOSI     CMD A7-A0 MISO                           DATA so the pulse between the write and read is the problem, and here we have to handle the NSS line manually, with the help of NSS_VAL and NSS_CONTROL bits in SPIM_CONFIG_REG. so the code should be like this:   Assert NSS   status = phhalSPIM_Transmit(PH_EXHIF_HW_SPIM_SLAVE, PH_EXHIF_HW_SPIM_INIT_CRC, PH_EXHIF_HW_SPIM_APPEND_CRC, PH_EXHIF_HW_SPIM_CRC_INIT, 2, cmd_buf, PH_EXHIF_HW_SPIM_CRC_OFFSET);    status = phhalSPIM_Receive(PH_EXHIF_HW_SPIM_SLAVE, PH_EXHIF_HW_SPIM_INIT_CRC, PH_EXHIF_HW_SPIM_CRC_INIT, data_length, dst, PH_EXHIF_HW_SPIM_CRC_OFFSET);"   De-assert NSS The NSS line assert and de-assert function can be implemented with register bit level APIs, just like below:             PH_REG_SET_BIT(SPIM_CONFIG_REG, NSS_VAL);//de-assert NSS             PH_REG_SET_BIT(SPIM_CONFIG_REG, NSS_CTRL);             PH_REG_CLEAR_BIT(SPIM_CONFIG_REG, NSS_VAL);//assert NSS Please also include the following header files in your application code. #include "ph_Reg.h" #include "PN7462AU/PN7462AU_spim.h" Please notice that phhalSPIM_Transmit() and phhalSPIM_Receive() are Rom based function, which clear NSS_CTRL bit by default. We can not change ROM API's behave but fortunately we have phhalSPIM_TransmitContinue() and phhalSPIM_ReceiveContinue() instead. so the final solution will be like below: Assert NSS   status = phhalSPIM_TransmitContinue(1, cmd_buf);    status = phhalSPIM_ReceiveContinue(3, dst);   De-assert NSS This doesn't mean phhalSPIM_Transmit() and phhalSPIM_Receive() are useless, because they can also help up to configure the SPI master interface, if you don't want to use register bit level API to initial the SPIM module manually. Please note to use 1 byte for write/read length to make these two functions work properly. so the whole pseudo code is like below: phhalSPIM_Init(PH_HW_SPIM_TIMEOUT) ; phhalSPIM_Configure(PH_HW_SPIM_SLAVE, PH_HW_SPIM_MSB_FIRST,                 \                                     PH_HW_SPIM_MODE, PH_HW_SPIM_BAUDRATE,  \                                     PH_HW_SPIM_NSSPULSE, PH_HW_SPIM_NSSPOL) ; status = phhalSPIM_Transmit(PH_EXHIF_HW_SPIM_SLAVE, PH_EXHIF_HW_SPIM_INIT_CRC, PH_EXHIF_HW_SPIM_APPEND_CRC, PH_EXHIF_HW_SPIM_CRC_INIT, 1, cmd_buf, PH_EXHIF_HW_SPIM_CRC_OFFSET);    status = phhalSPIM_Receive(PH_EXHIF_HW_SPIM_SLAVE, PH_EXHIF_HW_SPIM_INIT_CRC, PH_EXHIF_HW_SPIM_CRC_INIT, 1, dst, PH_EXHIF_HW_SPIM_CRC_OFFSET);" Assert NSS   status = phhalSPIM_TransmitContinue(1, cmd_buf);    status = phhalSPIM_ReceiveContinue(3, dst);   De-assert NSS The following steps show how to create a new project based on NFC reader library, please refer to https://www.nxp.com/docs/en/user-guide/UM10883.pdf  on how to import the NFC reader library. 1. Create a new project after importing the NFC reader library. 2. if you installed PN7462 support package, you will see this: 3. add a link to NFC reader lib: 4. add path and enable NFC reader lib in the project: 5. delete cr_startup.c and create the main code as well as the header file: 6. Build result: 7.Debug result: To fetch the ready demo, please submit a private ticket via the guide of https://community.nxp.com/docs/DOC-329745 . Hope that helps, Best regards, Kan

More information can be found in the respective Application Note AN12395.   2.1 Connections between OM-SE050ARD and LPC55S69 EVK   OM-SE050ARD LPC55S69 (Conn.# - Pin #) Port Function Name SE_SDA (J22-1) P24-6 also P17-3 PIO1_21 FC4_I2C_SDA_ARD SE_SCL (J22-4) P24-5 also P17-1 PIO1_20 FC4_I2C_SCL_ARD +5V_PC (J22-2)     VDD_TARGET GND (J22-3)     GND 2.2 Jumper settings on OM-SE050ARD to connect it to LPC55S69 EVK Connect SE050 to LPC55S Arduino stackable headers and change jumper J14 as: This connects SE_VDD directly to 3V3 and bypasses enable signal. This is required because enable pin on LPC55S coincides with Silex-2401 SPI pins so we cannot use SE_EN signal to drive SE_VDD.   3. Overview of NFC Front end boards working with LPC55S69 EVK board for this example:   3.1 BLE-NFC-V2: It is easier to use the BLE-NFC-V2 board since less changes have to made on the board as compared to the CLEV6630B board. The following figure shows the pin mapping between the two boards. It is advisable to add a pull-up resistor (4k7 to VCC) on CLRC663 plus signal IRQ.   3.2 CLEV6630B board: The CLEV6630B board consists of CLRC663 plus (NFC frontend) connected by default to an LPC1769 µC via SPI. However, the board is made in such a way that the LPC1769 MCU can be bypassed to connect to an external MCU (in our case the LPC55S69) easily. For doing so: Six resistors from the board need to be removed. These are highlighted in red in the Figure 1: Use the SPI pin connectors available on the left-hand side, on the board edge to connect to external MCU (LPC55S69 in this case) Solder jumper wires onto the following pins of CLEV6630B Board:  GND IRQ CLRC_NRST SSEL MOSI MISO SCK IF0 IF1          The CLEV6630B is shown in Figure 2 after the required changes have been made to it (Removal of resistors and soldering of wires).   Now connect the two boards as follows: Signal function LPC55S69 (conn. # - Pin #) Port CLEV6630B MOSI P17-10 PIO0_20 MOSI MISO P17-12 PIO0_19 MISO SPI SCK P17-14 PIO0_21 SCK SPI CSEL P17-6 PIO1_11 SSEL RESET P18-11 PIO0_15 CLRCL_NRST IRQ P18-3 PIO1_10 IRQ GND P17-7   GND  As final touch to this demonstrator, one LCD display will be added in order to show "access control" check result when approaching a MIFARE DESFire EV2 card to the Reader antenna, without the use of a computer console.

NFC reader library porting guide for LPC11u37h(Ver 5.12) - Porting NfcrdlibEx1_BasicDiscoveryLoop

The latest NFC reader library supports lpc1769 which is a cortex M3 controller with LPCopen lib supports, so in theory , it should supports other controllers supported by LPCopen, but we have to test this, so we choose , for example, lpc11u37, a cortex M0 based controller for this porting. Platform for this porting: LPC11u37h-Xpresso Rev A: CLRC663 plus based CLEV663B Blueboard 3.0. Please refer to Prepare CLEV663B board for NFC reader library porting  for details. They are connected via LPCXpresso ports. Now we may start the porting, the IDE we use in this porting is MCUXpresso 10.1.1 1. Download and import the latest NFC reader library for CLEV6630B, as it supports CLRC663 plus. For how to import the project, please refer to https://www.nxp.com/docs/en/application-note/AN11211.pdf . 2. Download LPCopen for LPC11u37h and import it as well. 3. Now we may choose some demo in the NFC reader library, for example, the NfcrdlibEx1_BasicDiscoveryLoop, and create new build configuration for lpc11u37h. 4.Select the correct MCU 5.Modify build settings Here we find LPC1769RC663 is defined, so we have to find what is related with this definition in the code and change it/them. Fortunately they are not too many. you may find they are just related with board header file including or something like that, so it is not difficult to modify them. 6. Add new header file for the new board definition 7. add the new board definition 8. As we now use LPCopen lib for LPC11u37h instead, so we have to change the including path. As LPC11u37h is cortex M3 based, so we have to setup FreeRTOS for M0 support: and add the source code for building: 9.Change the link libraries and including path 10.Set the correct ref projects to use LPCopen for LPC11u37h. 11. Some changes in LPCopen library: 1)enable semihosting debug 2) add startup source code for the demo, this C file can be reused/imported from the some lpcopen project. 12. After the above steps, we still have to change the source code in DAL: You know , due to different version of LPCopen library,  some function definition might be changed, and different LPCXpresso boards has different pin connection to the LPCXpresso ports, so it is recommended checking the board schematics and the examples in lpcopen project , find the proper function calls to implement the source codes in the DAL folder. When you finished , the porting is done. 13. As the final image size is greater than 128K, we have enable optimization for size. 14.Demo test ok. Now , we know lpc11u37 can be supported by the latest NFC reader library, so the porting should also be applied for other Cortex M0 controllers, and it is recommended the controller with large internal flash size, better greater than 128K, but anyway, in this porting, I didn't enable the size optimization for LPCopen library, so there might be possibility to have a smaller size image at last...
