DocID023883 Rev 3 9/19UM1589 Hardware and layout description3.2  M24LR board power selectionWhen jumper JP1 is set in the “RF power” position (Figure 4), the M24LR board is powered by the M24LR04E-R energy harvesting analog output (Vout pin). In this configuration, the M24LR board is powered by the magnetic field flowing into its 9-turn, etched loop antenna, delivered from a 13.56-MHz RF source, such as an RFID reader or an NFC phone. The DC voltage supply delivered by the M24LR04E-R Vout pin is filtered by an 10-nF capacitor (C19) and stored in the 150-µF capacitor (C22). The low dropout (LDO) voltage regulator (U5) is bypassed, so the M24LR04E-R voltage is filtered but not regulated.Figure 4. Jumper JP1 set in RF power positionWhen jumperJP1 is set in the “REG 3.3" position (Figure 5), the M24LR board is powered by the external power supply connected on connector CN2. The voltage applied on the external power supply connector CN2 is regulated by the 3.3V voltage regulator (U5). The external power supply voltage can be from 3.3 to 6V. Using an external power supply is necessary when programming or debugging the STM8L MCU using the SWIM connector (CN1). Figure 5. Jumper JP1 in “REG_3V3” position and external power connectionIt is also possible to connect an external antenna demonstration board featuring the energy harvesting function (ANTX-M24LRXXE) to improve or simply evaluate the energy harvesting function using a different antenna.

RF transceiver board layout (top and bottom)3.4 RF transceiver demonstration board powering and startupThe RF transceiver demonstration board is powered by the USB bus.When powered up, the CR95HF starts in an autonomous mode called “tag hunting”: the red LED 1 lights up every time a tag is recognized. During Tag Hunting mode, the RF transceiver demonstration board switches ON and OFF the magnetic field at each RF protocol change. A constant magnetic field is naturally more appropriate to evaluate and develop battery-less applications based on the Energy Harvesting capability of the M24LRXXE-R EEPROM Family.Tag Hunting mode persists until the M24LR/CR95 application software setup file [STSW-M24LR011] is launched and the CR95HF is initialized by the software. At this moment, both Tag Hunting mode and the RF field stop. To activate a constant magnetic field emission, it possible either to open the Demo NDEF messages menu and select Show Demo NDEF & Energy Harvesting or send a single ISO/IEC15693 RF command (Inventory, Read.). 2-turn,13.56-MHzloop antennaReset button27.12-MHzcrystal oscillator20-pin JTAGconnector (J3)STM32F103CBT6User LED 1LDO regulatorUSB connector (J1)CR95HF RF IC
