Product details
Overview
ANT3-M24LR-A from STMicroelectronics is a ready-to-use SMD-inductor-based antenna reference board for the M24LR64-R dual-interface EEPROM, integrating a 4.7 µH RF inductor tuned to 13.56 MHz and an I²C connector for wired interface evaluation. It enables functional validation of RF-NFC and I²C read/write operations in proximity-based data logging systems.
For engineers reviewing the ANT3-M24LR-A datasheet, ANT3-M24LR-A pinout, ANT3-M24LR-A application, or ANT3-M24LR-A equivalent, this board supports rapid prototyping of dual-interface EEPROM integration in NFC-enabled industrial tags, smart packaging, and asset tracking systems requiring simultaneous contactless and wired access to non-volatile memory.
Technical Context
The board implements a passive 13.56 MHz RF antenna using a discrete 4.7 µH SMD inductor, directly coupled to the RF pins of the M24LR64-R IC. Its PCB layout follows ST's recommended antenna geometry and impedance-matching guidelines for ISO/IEC 14443 Type B compliance.
It provides direct I²C bus access via a standard 4-pin header (VCC, GND, SCL, SDA), enabling host MCU control independent of RF operation. No onboard voltage regulation or level-shifting circuitry is included - VCC must be supplied externally at 1.8–5.5 V per M24LR64-R specifications.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Antenna Frequency | 13.56 MHz - matches ISO/IEC 14443 Type B and NFC Forum Tag Type 4 standards for interoperability with common readers. |
| Inductor Value | 4.7 µH - selected to resonate with M24LR64-R's internal capacitance for optimal RF power harvesting and modulation efficiency. |
| Interface Support | I²C + RF - enables concurrent wired configuration and contactless data exchange without hardware conflict. |
| EEPROM Capacity | 64 Kbit (8 Kbytes) - provided by on-board M24LR64-R, supporting sector protection and 100 k write cycles. |
| Operating Voltage | 1.8–5.5 V - compatible with common microcontroller I/O rails; no onboard regulation required. |
| PCB Format | Single-layer reference design - Gerber files available from ST for replication or layout adaptation. |

FAQ
Does the ANT3-M24LR-A include the M24LR64-R IC?
Yes - the board integrates one M24LR64-R dual-interface EEPROM IC pre-soldered and electrically connected to both the 4.7 µH antenna inductor and the I²C header. No additional assembly is required to begin evaluation.
Can the ANT3-M24LR-A operate without an external power supply?
Yes - in RF mode, the M24LR64-R harvests energy from a 13.56 MHz reader field via the 4.7 µH inductor, enabling fully passive operation. For I²C mode, a 1.8–5.5 V external supply must be applied to the VCC pin.
Is antenna tuning required before use?
No - the 4.7 µH inductor and PCB layout are pre-optimized per ST's AN4219 application note for resonance at 13.56 MHz. Measured Q-factor and matching meet ISO/IEC 14443 Type B requirements out-of-box.
Where can I obtain the Gerber files for this board?
Gerber files for ANT3-M24LR-A are publicly available for download from STMicroelectronics' official website at www.st.com under document ID Doc ID 17855, referenced in the board's data brief.
