Product details
Overview
NHS3100SENSORADK from NXP Semiconductors is an evaluation kit built around the NHS3100 ultra-low-power NFC sensor tag IC, integrating a temperature sensor, EEPROM, and NFC interface compliant with ISO/IEC 14443-A and NFC Forum Type 2. It supports wireless firmware programming via Android NFC and operates without battery or external power.
For engineers reviewing the NHS3100SENSORADK datasheet, NHS3100SENSORADK pinout, NHS3100SENSORADK application, or NHS3100SENSORADK equivalent, this kit enables rapid validation of NFC-based sensor logging, therapy adherence tracking, and contactless environmental monitoring in resource-constrained edge nodes.
Technical Context
The NHS3100SENSORADK implements a passive NFC-powered system architecture where energy harvesting from the reader field powers both the NHS3100 IC and its on-board temperature sensor. It uses ISO/IEC 14443-A Layer 3 commands for data exchange and supports dynamic memory mapping of sensor readings into NDEF messages.
Firmware loading is performed wirelessly using the "NHS31xx NFC Program Loader" Android app and a pre-packaged demo container (NHS31XX_DEMOS), with one-time wireless programming capability followed by wired reprogramming support via LPC-Link2 or J-Link debuggers using Flash Magic or Segger tools.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| NFC Standard | ISO/IEC 14443-A and NFC Forum Type 2 - enables interoperability with standard NFC readers and smartphones. |
| Power Source | Passive, harvested from NFC field - eliminates need for battery or wiring in demonstration and short-range sensing use cases. |
| Sensor Type | Integrated digital temperature sensor - provides calibrated ambient temperature readings accessible via NDEF payload. |
| Firmware Loading | One-time wireless programming via Android NFC app - simplifies initial setup but requires wired toolchain (LPC-Link2/J-Link) for subsequent updates. |
| Memory | On-chip EEPROM - stores sensor configuration, calibration data, and user-defined NDEF records persistently. |
| Development Support | Includes NHS3152 SDK and UM11153 documentation - provides full hardware schematics, API reference, and example firmware for custom applications. |

FAQ
What is the NHS3100SENSORADK used for?
The NHS3100SENSORADK is an evaluation kit for the NHS3100 NFC sensor tag IC. It enables engineers to demonstrate and develop contactless temperature logging, therapy adherence monitoring, and smart label applications. The NHS3100SENSORADK operates passively using NFC field energy and delivers sensor data via NDEF messages readable by standard smartphones.
Does the NHS3100SENSORADK require a battery?
No, the NHS3100SENSORADK does not require a battery. It is powered entirely by energy harvested from the NFC reader's electromagnetic field, enabling true battery-free operation. This makes the NHS3100SENSORADK ideal for disposable or maintenance-free sensor deployments where battery replacement is impractical.
Can firmware be updated wirelessly on the NHS3100SENSORADK after initial programming?
No - wireless firmware programming on the NHS3100SENSORADK is limited to a single use. After the first successful download using the NHS31xx NFC Program Loader app, further updates require a wired connection via LPC-Link2 or J-Link debugger and tools like Flash Magic. This restriction ensures security and integrity of deployed firmware on the NHS3100SENSORADK.
Which development tools are supported for custom firmware on the NHS3100SENSORADK?
The NHS3100SENSORADK supports Flash Magic with LPC-Link2 and Segger J-Link software with compatible debug probes. The NHS3152 SDK - downloadable from NXP's product page - includes UM11153 documentation, hardware schematics, driver libraries, and example applications required to build and deploy custom firmware targeting the NHS3100SENSORADK platform.
Is the NHS3100SENSORADK compatible with iOS devices?
No, the NHS3100SENSORADK's wireless programming workflow relies on Android-specific NFC APIs and the NHS31xx NFC Program Loader app, which is only available on Google Play. While iOS devices can read NDEF-formatted sensor data from the NHS3100SENSORADK post-programming, they cannot perform firmware downloads or interactive debugging functions supported by the Android toolchain.
