7June ’02 Chapter 1. Introduction1.1 GeneralThis document provides information about the S6700 Multi Protocol Transceiver IC.It describes the integrated circuit and how to implement it. 1.2 System DescriptionThe HF Reader System Series 6000 works at a frequency of 13.56 MHz. It comprisesa reader, antenna and transponder (for example: smart label) and is used for wire-less identification.The system works according the “reader talks first” principle which means that thetransponder keeps quiet until the reader sends a request to it. The reader can rapidlyand simultaneously identify numerous transponders in the antenna’s field. It canwrite data to and read data from the transponders; either in addressed mode by usingthe factory programmed read only number, or in general mode to all of the transpond-ers in its field. The read/write capability of the transponder allows users to update thedata stored in the transponders memory anywhere along its movements. 1.3 Product DescriptionThe S6700 Multi Protocol Transceiver IC opens a rapid path for the development ofa broad range of 13.56 MHz RFID readers. It provides the receive/transmit functionsrequired to communicate with a variety of transponders that operate in the 13.56MHz ISM band. A transmit encoder converts the transmitted data stream into the se-lected protocol; protocol selection is done in the header of the transmitted data string.The transmitter can provide up to 200 mW of RF power to a matched 50 Ω load witha 5 V power supply. Higher output power can be obtained by an external amplifier. The receive decoder converts the signals from the RF receiver into a simple datastring. The digital interface provides on-chip data encoding and recovery, thereby minimiz-ing the software design efforts for the end user. Communication with the circuit isachieved by means of a three wire serial link. Figure 1: S6700 Multi Protocol Transceiver IC (RI-R6C-001A)1.4 Communications ProtocolsThe Transceiver IC can handle different RF protocols as follows: 1. Tag-it protocol. 2. ISO / IEC 15693-2 [2].3. ISO / IEC 14443-2 (Type A). 4. Direct mode where data can be passed directly thru to a transponder; using the correct modulation, timing, and command structure.

10S6700 Multi-Protocol Transceiver IC - Reference Guide June ’022.1 Functional DescriptionA simplified block diagram of the Transceiver IC is shown in Figure 4, the differentelectronic parts of the IC are described in sections 2.1.1 to 2.1.6. Figure 4: Simplified Block Diagram2.1.1 Power SupplyThe Transceiver IC requires a nominal 5 volts external power supply. Operation isguaranteed between 3 Volts and 5.5 Volts. The current drain depends on the anten-na impedance and the output matching network configuration. We strongly recom-mended that you use a well regulated supply as power supply ripple and noise willseverely degrade the overall system performance.2.1.2 TransmitterThe output transistor is a low Ron MOSFET. The drain is directly accessible on theTX_OUT pin. A recommended application schematic optimized to drive a resistivefifty ohms antenna with a five volts power supply is shown in Appendix A. A simpleresonant circuit or/and a simple matching network can be connected to the output toreduce harmonic suppression and enhance the general performance.100% modulation is achieved by means of gating the square wave drive of the outputtransistor. 423/484/848 kHzLinear PALowpassFilterDinDoutSCLOCKTransmittDecoderMode RegisterModulationdept / outReturn lossbetter 20dBReceiveDecoderOscillator13.56MHzRX inputVccGndM_ERRRectifier
11June ’02 Chapter 2. Transceiver IC DescriptionThe ten percent modulation depth is obtained by means of switching a resistor in se-ries with the output transistor source connection. Increasing the value of this resistorfurther increases the modulation depth. The transmit encoder converts the data into the selected RF Protocol to be trans-ferred. The communications speed varies from 5 to 120 kbaud and must be at leastthe speed of the selected transponder protocol. An input buffer is implemented in or-der to have a sufficient number of bits available for the RF transmission. 2.1.3 ReceiverThe receiver input is typically connected to the antenna through an external resistor.The modulation from the tag is then recovered by means of a diode envelope detec-tor. The receiver decoder issues the received data directly to the controller in binary dataformat. The communication speed and RF protocol is defined by the selected mode.Start, stop and errors in the received data string are detected and indicated at theoutput. 2.1.4 Reference Clock and Internal Oscillator The reference clock can be obtained externally by applying a suitable clock signal tothe XTAL2 pin. A sine wave centered at VCC/2 or a CMOS logic compatible signalis an acceptable external system clock. The built-in reference oscillator will work ei-ther with a quartz crystal or a ceramic resonator. The nominal system clock frequen-cy is 13.56 MHz, but the oscillator will work at any frequency from 4 MHz to 16 MHz.A buffered version of the crystal oscillator signal is available for synchronization pur-poses on pin 8 (XTAL_CLOCK).2.1.5 Reset Defaults and Power Management After a power on reset has been performed, the device is placed in its default config-uration. There are three available power modes. In the first mode, the device is fullypowered. In the idle mode, only the reference oscillator and a minimal set of associ-ated circuitry are running. In the power down mode, the device internal bias systemis completely switched off. The circuit is woken by applying a rising edge on the DINline while SCLOCK is held high.2.1.6 Serial communication interfaceThe communication interface normally uses three wires:SCLOCK, serial clock, bi-directional.DIN, data input, as seen by the circuitDOUT, data output, as seen by the circuitThe commands are sent with the most significant bit (MSB) in the first position. Allsignals are internally synchronized with the system clock.The bit protocol is fully described in Chapter 4.

20S6700 Multi-Protocol Transceiver IC - Reference Guide June ’024.1 General Remarks and Basic Command StructureThe protocol uses a simple three wire serial link between the Transceiver IC and aremote controller (microprocessor) to transmit data and set up data. All signals trav-elling on this interface must be resynchronised and debounced. It is important to al-low a 70 ns debounce time before looking for any signal change. For example, ifSCLOCK rises 70 ns before DIN the Transceiver IC serial interface may see them asrising together. For each communication, the remote controller must send a command to perform anappropriate sequence. A typical command is structured as follows: (S1, eight bitscommand, data, ES1). More actions may follow a specific command but sending S1will in general initiate a new sequence. A sequence is defined as being all signals between the first S1 (that belongs to thesequence) and the next S1 (that belongs to the next sequence).Figure 8: Command Structure4.1.1 Definition of Start (S1), Stop (ES1) and Data bitStart, stop, and data are indicated by the sequences:-  Start (S1) is defined as the start of the communication sequence between theTransceiver IC and the micro-controller. It is a low-to-high transition on the DINline while SCLOCK is held high.-  Stop (ES1) is defined as the end of the communication sequence and is ahigh-to-low transition on the DIN line while SCLOCK is held high. -  Each data bit is latched by the rising edge of SCLOCK. The value of the databit must be settled and has to remain the same while SCLOCK is high. -  The data on DIN can be changed while SCLOCK is low.

22S6700 Multi-Protocol Transceiver IC - Reference Guide June ’024.1.3 Transmitter Off CommandFigure 10 shows a special and fast command to shut down the carrier. This can beconstructed with an S1 sequence followed by an ES1 sequence. Therefore, this hasbeen written 'S1' and 'ES1' in the symbolic representation.The transmitter is kept 'ON' after a RF command was initiated. To switch the trans-mitter OFF the following sequence is used:-  A transition of SCLOCK from low -to-high.- A low -to-high transition followed by a high-to-low transition on the Din linewhile SCLOCK is held high the whole time.- A transition of SCLOCK from high to low.Figure 10: Shut Down CommandThe width of the pulse of Din must be at least 1.2 µs in order to secure the system,and avoid any confusion between a TXOFF command and an S1 command, in caseany spurious spike(s) are present on the serial link. It is not necessary to switch off the transmitter before sending another command anddata stream to the Transceiver IC.4.1.4 Transmitter On command The transmitter can be switched on with each of the RF commands in Table 5 exceptfor the configuration commands. The fastest command to switch the transmitter onis a register mode command without data, using the sequence: S1, 1, ES1.

23June ’02 Chapter 4. Protocol Definition4.2 Operating ModesThere are two operating modes available: normal mode and register mode. 4.2.1 Common Points (Normal and Register Mode) Following the S1 bit and the command (either normal or register mode), the rest ofthe sequence is the same.The number of data bits is arbitrary. The controller sends ES1 when all data bits havebeen sent. It is the responsibility of the controller to check that the number of databits is consistent. For example, sending 7 data bits in mode 1out 256 is not consist-ent. The controller will have no feedback on this error, wrong data or no data at allcould be sent. The various CRC sent by the TAG should allow the controller to un-derstand its mistake and, if necessary, to reinitiate a sequence.The first bit ES1 will probably not finish the sequence since an answer from the TAGwill probably be expected. This is explained in figures 12, 14 and 15.Note that S1 starts the sequence but does not physically modulate the carrier with aSOF. The SOF will be generated by the Transceiver IC itself before sending data.This SOF may depend on the mode. It may only be sent after several data bits havebeen received by the Transceiver IC. For example, the SOF may be modulated onlywhen 8 bits have been received in the mode 1 out 256. This behaviour is similar inthe mode 1 out of 4.4.2.2 Normal ModeFigure 11 represents the “Normal Mode”. The user sends some configuration insidethe command (definition see Table 5) and starts sending data that will be transmittedby the way of modulating the carrier. SOF, data, EOF will be sent to the TAG. Thereis no timing correlation between the data in the serial interface and the timing of thedata transmitted to the TAG. This is the reason why a buffer (FIFO) has been imple-mented in the Transceiver IC. The signals related to the FIFO will be described inFIFO management section 4.5.2.Figure 11: Normal ModeExample:The data stream to address the Tag-it RF protocol is defined by the following se-quence:Size/lengthStart (S1) 1 BitCommand byte Bit #7 = L, Normal Mode Bit #6 = L, Tag-it protocolBit #5 = L, “ES1data= to be sent to TAGNormal ModeSymbolicSclockDinDoutcommand= normal modeb7S1FIFO management is not shown hereb0

This command is only one bitlong and not 8 bits long like all other commands. In “Register Mode”, the configuration used is the one that has been previously pro-grammed in the Transceiver IC. This configuration should be written using “Write toConfiguration Register” (Figure 14) during a previous communication with the Trans-ceiver IC. The Configuration Register definition is shown in Appendix C.

25June ’02 Chapter 4. Protocol Definition4.3 RF Protocol4.3.1 GeneralA description of the RF Protocol according to ISO 15693 and ISO 14443 can befound in the relevant ISO documentation. The Tag-it protocol for Tag-it HF trans-ponders is described in the Tag-it protocol, TI specification 11-04-21-002. 4.3.2 Direct ModeIn Direct Mode, the controller has to create all modulated signals sent to the TAGsince the transmitter input is directly connected to the input line Din. This signal hasthe exact timing required by the TAG.Figure 13: Direct ModeThe 'Direct Mode' is entered by S1, command (8 bits), ES1 and the Transceiver ICis then set to “direct Mode”. At this point, no carrier modulation has been applied tothe TAG. After SCLOCK rises, DIN can directly control the modulation input, whichis then directly connected to the RF modulator.The modulation depth 10% or 100%, the receiver channel settings and the demodu-lation mode AM/FSK are defined by the command byte. The raw demodulated data(Manchester coded) is available at DOUT and no further processing is performed bythe Transceiver IC when operating in this mode.To exit this mode the SCLOCK line changes from high-to-low and the transmitter isswitched off. Notes:The transmission direction of the binary data depends on the defini-tion of the selected RF Protocol and can be different between the command byte and the binary data (RF Protocol). For example: for ISO 15693 and ISO 14443 you must send the LSB first. The binary data response for the Tag-it protocol and the ISO 15693 protocol contains two additional zeros (0 0) in the end of frame, to indicate the end of transponder transmission. This sequence is decoded as “0 0 ES”. The two zeros must be removed from the data string before any further processing.

26S6700 Multi-Protocol Transceiver IC - Reference Guide June ’024.4 Register Configuration4.4.1 Write Data to Configuration RegisterThe data bits following the command byte are written to the configuration register.Figure 14: Write Configuration RegisterFigure 14 represents the command “Write to Configuration Register” since the 8 bitsof command are 01111101. The data stream illustrated in Figure 14 is 8 bits long. This sequence is used to define the active settings when operating in “Registermode” (see sequence “'Register Mode”). The values for Bit 7 “Idle Mode” and bit 0“Manchester Decoder” are also valid for “Normal Mode”. After the bit ES1, the command “Write to Configuration Register” is finished. A newbit S1 is expected to initiate a new sequence.4.4.2 Read Data from Configuration RegisterRead Data from Configuration Register: The data after the command byte are thecontent of the registers and clocked out by the SCLOCK from the controller.Figure 15: Read from Configuration RegisterFigure 15 shows the “Read from Configuration Register” command, which is01110001. The controller is reading the configuration register of the Transceiver IC.This has nothing to do with the presence of a TAG or not. The controller can considerthis operation as reading a RAM via the three wires serial link interface. The control-ler is allowed to send ES1 before having read all configuration bits if it does not needto know all bits. The order of the configuration bits inside the Transceiver IC is thenimportant in case a specific part of the configuration is read frequently.After the bit ES1, the command “Read from Configuration Register” is finished. Anew bit S1 is expected to initiate a new sequence.ES1data= Configuration data to writeWrite to Configuration RegisterSymbolicSclockDinDoutcommand=Write to Configuration Registerb7 b0S1ES1data = Configuration Register data on DoutSymbolicSclockDinDoutcommand = Read from Configuration Registerb7 b0S1ESdata = Configuration dataSymbolicSclockDinDoutcommand = Read from Configuration Registerb7 b0S1Read fromConfigurationRegisterinteruptedby RCRead from Configuration Register
27June ’02 Chapter 4. Protocol Definition4.5 Communication4.5.1 FIFO ManagementBecause the micro controller cannot control the timing of sending data to the TAGthe Transceiver IC must store the data from the micro controller. The capacity of stor-age being limited, management of the buffer must be implemented. The buffer is im-plemented as a 16 bit FIFO. Figure 16: FIFO ManagementThe FIFO management is shown in Figure 16. The Transceiver IC indicates that itsbuffer is full and asks the controller to stop sending data. The Transceiver IC doesso by raising DOUT while SCLOCK=0. The controller must wait until DOUT returnsto level 0 to send further data. The Transceiver IC indicates that its buffer is almostempty under the following conditions:Data is written with the commands “Write ASIC”, “Normal Mode” and “RegisterMode”. The FIFO management is not needed for the “Write ASIC” command, sincewriting in the Transceiver IC is immediate. FIFO management will be used with the“Normal Mode” and “Register Mode” commands. Note:As long as DOUT is at level 1 it is not permitted to send a clock signal on the SCLOCK line.

28S6700 Multi-Protocol Transceiver IC - Reference Guide June ’024.5.2 Basic Request/ResponseThe SCLOCK line becomes bi-directional. DIN is always input for the Transceiver ICDOUT is always an output for the Transceiver ICSCLOCK is used by the Transceiver IC and the controllerFigure 17: Basic Request/ResponseS1, cmd//, and ES1 are sent (cmd// = “normal mode” OR “register mode”). A SOFfollowed by the data and terminated by EOF is transmitted to the TAG by amplitudemodulation of the carrier. (Remark: the FIFO management is not shown in figures 13,15 and 17). In a typical case, the TAG will now send its answer to the request. The ASIC has tocontrol the line SCLOCK since the data rate of the TAG will pace the data flow. 4.5.2.1 Definition TRAN1During Transient 1 (TRAN1), the controller gives control of the SCLOCK line to theTransceiver IC: DIN =0Time a: The bit ES1 is finished.Time b:  The controller raises DIN, either to prepare a control mode change forthe SCLOCK line or to prepare an ES1. Time c:  DIN is falling. The controller definitely indicates that it will give theSCLOCK line control to the Transceiver IC. SCLOCK =0 and both thecontroller and the Transceiver IC are outputs.Time d:  DIN rises showing that the controller leaves the control of the bus untilDIN falls to ask the control of SCLOCK back. At time d, SCLOCK is stillequal to 0 but the pin SCLOCK of the controller is an input and the pinSCLOCK of the Transceiver IC is an output.When the Transceiver IC has control of SCLOCK, it will send a S2 that correspondsto a SOF sent by the TAG, the data (7 bits in Figure 17) and an ES2 that correspondsto the EOF of the TAG. 4.5.2.2 Definition TRAN2:During Transient 2, the controller regains control of SCLOCK: DIN =1The controller indicates its intention to regain control over SCLOCK by setting DIN=0and initiate a change by making a pulse on DIN. It is during this pulse that the lineSCLOCK will change direction.Note:For the sake of clarity we have introduced a new convention: When the Transceiver IC drives the line SCLOCK the start of the sequence is marked S2 and the end ES2. data= to be sent to TAGBasic Request / ResponseSymbolicSclockDinDoutcmdS1 ES1abcd eTRAN1 S2 TAG data ES2 TRAN2
29June ’02 Chapter 4. Protocol Definition4.5.3 Bi-directional SCLOCKFigure 18 shows an extreme case of successive changes of SCLOCK control. Thisexample demonstrates the principle, its purpose is not to show a typical case. Evenif this could be done, it is very unlikely that a user would implement such a case.Figure 18: Bi-directional SCLOCKA classical TRAN1 is shown at times a, b and c of Figure 18. This is described in sec-tion 4.5.2.1.At time d, the controller signals that it wants to take back control of SCLOCK. DINrises at time e. Between time e and time f, SCLOCK=0 both Transceiver IC and con-troller are outputs. At time f, only the controller is an output.At time g, the controller raises DIN to prepare an ES1.Between time h1 to h2, a classical TRAN1 is performed. At time h2, the TransceiverIC controls SCLOCK.At time i, the Transceiver IC raises DOUT to be ready to send a data '1' to the con-troller as SCLOCK is rising. At the same time (before or after), the controller resetsDIN showing it wants to take back the bus. The falling of DOUT while SCLOCK=1 is normally an ES2.At time k, the Transceiver IC resets SCLOCK to low. After this a TRAN2 can takeplace. At time l, both Transceiver IC and controller are outputs. At time m, the Trans-ceiver IC is an input and the controller is an output. SymbolicSclockDinDoutBi-directional SCLOCKTRAN2TRAN1 ES1 TRAN1 data TRAN2abc def g h2 ijklmh1
30S6700 Multi-Protocol Transceiver IC - Reference Guide June ’024.5.4 Simultaneous Identification (SID) / Anti-collisionFigure 19: Simultaneous Identification (SID) / Anti-collisionWhen you have read section 4.5.3 you (controller software developer) have all theelements to establish a SID with the TAG, this is shown in Figure 19.The sequence S1, cmd//, data, ES1, will send to the TAG a SOF, Data (=SID re-quest), EOF. The last EOF can normally be seen as the marker of the beginning ofthe first slot. The first TRAN1 allows the Transceiver IC to send the data receivedfrom the TAG. The first bit sent is S2 (corresponding to a SOF sent by the TAG), TAGdata (7 bits on Figure 19), ES2 (corresponding to the EOF sent by the TAG). ATRAN2 gives back the SCLOCK to the controller. ES1 is then sent to modulate an EOF towards the TAG, delimiting a new slot. Thenext signals are TRAN1, S2, TAG data (only 4 bits) but at this time, the controller isnot interested in continuing to read data. At time f, the controller resets DIN to ask forcontrol of SCLOCK. The Transceiver IC stops the process TRAN2 sinceSCLOCK='1' by resetting DOUT. As soon as SCLOCK='0', the Transceiver IC ac-knowledges it is ready to begin a TRAN2 by raising DOUT='1'. A TRAN2 can nowtake place to give back the control to the controller.Finally, the controller decides to start a new sequence by sending S1, which com-pletes the SID sequence.The two slots shown, as an example, are not typical since 16 slots may be used innormal operation. data= to be sent to TAG Simultaneous Identification (SID)SymbolicSclockDinDoutcmdS1 ES1abcd eTRAN1 S2fTAG data ES2 TRAN2ES1 TRAN1 S2 TAG data TRAN2 S1 new commandSymbolicSclockDinDoutsee  below
31June ’02 Chapter 4. Protocol Definition4.6 Power Management4.6.1 Idle ModeThe Transceiver IC can be switched to Idle mode by configuring Bit 7 of the Config-uration Register to 1 with the command “Write to Configuration Register”. In thismode, only the oscillator and the essential digital circuits are enabled. It can beswitched out of Idle mode by configuring Bit 7 of the Configuration Register to 0. 4.6.2 Power Down ModeThe Transceiver IC can be switched into “Power Down Mode” by sending the PowerDown configuration command (01111110) as described in section 4.1.2 and Table7. In Power Down Mode, the crystal will not be running, some analog circuitry may beshut down, the carrier will be off, the configuration bits remain unchanged. Consequently, the serial link (clocked by the crystal) will not be available. The con-troller cannot communicate with the Transceiver IC in this mode.To wake the Transceiver IC up, the controller has to send a bit S1 that will triggersome asynchronous circuitry on board of the Transceiver IC. This action will reset(asynchronously) the bit 'Power Down', and will restart the crystal oscillator. After adelay of 10 ms, the serial link will operate again.During a wake up phase, the controller will have to wait until the crystal oscillator hasreached its nominal operating conditions again. The controller (after this delay)should initiate a new sequence (S1, cmd, and data, ES1). Note that the bit S1 usedto wake up the Transceiver IC is not initiating a sequence. In practice, to write a newsequence to the Transceiver IC when the Transceiver IC is in Power Down Mode,the controller must do: S1, delay (10 ms), S1, cmd, data, ES1 (where cmd can beany command).4.7 Pin M_ERRThe pin M_ERR is an output and has three functions:- It will rise during ES1 if the bit #0 (parity) is wrong in the command- It will rise as soon as bad data is decoded by the Manchester decoder whilereceiving data. This tells the controller that the common bits of two Tags an-swered at the same time within the same slot or the timing offset for synchro-nizing of the Manchester decoder needs to be adjusted (see Appendix C -Timing Register). - If the FIFO Buffer is empty and the reader to transponder communication isfinished then a 22 µs pulse is generated on the M_ERR pin.

35June ’02 Appendix A. Application ExamplesAt 5 V, this circuit will output typically 200 mW RF power when a suitable matched50 Ω antenna is connected. At 3 V the output will be typically 80 mW RF power. Pro-portionately lower RF outputs will result if you only have a simple resonating circuit.Where the transmitter is intended to be on all the time, it is recommended that thechip pad sizes and tracks are increased to provide a larger area for heat dissipation.Care should be taken with board design to avoid excessive capacitance. When boardcapacitance is too high, the value of the capacitance associated with the crystal mayneed reducing to avoid an unstable clock. The suggested circuit shows capacitor val-ues of 22 pF.The Transceiver IC can be switched from 100% to 10% via the software. ISO 15693specifies that the inlay should perform with modulation depths between 10% and30% (in addition to 100%) and the required depth can be configured by changing re-sistor R2 in the suggested circuit.

39June ’02 Appendix C. Register DefinitionTiming RegisterThe timing register is used to set the sampling point of the digital decoder to generatebinary data from the Manchester coded data stream (Timing Offset). The time is de-fined from the end of transmission from the Transceiver IC to the transponder untilthe beginning of the response from the transponder. Certain variations are allowed for this timing offset and depending on the signalstrength and signal-to-noise ratio seen at the receiver input a change of the defaultvalue may result in better reading results.For test purposes the boundary scan signals can be feed to the pin M-ERR by settingbit D7. Conditions to set the timing offset: • The first rising edge of the boundary scan must be in front of the start of the tag response. • The first boundary scan pulse can be set by changing the Timing Offset Bits D6..D0. • The weight of one bit shifts Tdelay by 295 ns (4/13.56 MHz). Changing the value of this register is done with the command '0111 1011' followedby a 13-bit data stream. Example: Set Tdelay to 311.31 µsSend command '0111 1011' followed by the 13-bit data stream'1100 0000 1001 0'.D12D11D10D9D8D7D6D5D4D3D2D1D011 00 00 010 11 00 DefaultTiming Offset1 LS BTiming Offset2Timing O ffset3          To  adjust theTiming Offset4           boundary scanTiming Offset5Timing Offset6Timing Offset7 MS BBoundary scan: 0 = Normal, 1 = Boundary scan is added on pin M_ERRReservedneed  to be theDefault valueM_ERRTdelay
