Hi,
I want to measure the chip power consumption. Is there any way to measure the NFC receive power with time and NFC transmit power consumption?
Could u give some advices or ideas?
Many thanks.
Hello @Charlot, Good Day!
Thank you very much for your interest in our products.
In NFC powered mode, only passive operation is possible for the NHS3152, as it can only use the RF field provided to power itself, but cannot actively power other NFC devices via RF.
Unfortunately, there is no practical way to measure the NFC power consumption within the chip. However, you could try measuring the supplied voltage through the antenna by connecting a voltmeter or similar tool/equipment to the LA and LB terminals of the antenna, but please consider that doing this may cause a detuning of the antenna since the probes would interfere with its impedance.
My best regards,
Daniel.
