Product details
Overview
NHS3100TEMOADKUL from NXP Semiconductors is an NFC-enabled, ultra-low-power Arm Cortex-M0+ temperature monitoring IC with integrated ±0.3 °C (0–45 °C) sensor, 32 kB flash, 8 kB SRAM, and dual power capability (1.72–3.6 V battery or NFC field). It supports cold-chain validation and single-layer foil implementations in disposable sensing tags.
For engineers reviewing the NHS3100TEMOADKUL datasheet, NHS3100TEMOADKUL pinout, NHS3100TEMOADKUL application, or NHS3100TEMOADKUL equivalent, key selection criteria include NFC-powered operation, deep power-down mode (<50 nA), software-configurable GPIOs, I²C/NFC interface coexistence, and certified NFC Forum Type 2 compliance (ID 58516).
Technical Context
The NHS3100TEMOADKUL integrates an Arm Cortex-M0+ core running at up to 8 MHz with nested vectored interrupt controller (NVIC), serial wire debug (SWD), and system tick timer. Its memory subsystem includes 32 kB flash, 4 kB EEPROM (320 B write-protected), and 8 kB SRAM mapped across AHB/APB buses.
Power architecture features dual-source selection (VDDBAT or NFC rectifier), two LDOs (1.2 V/1.6 V), and five operational modes - Active, Sleep, Deep-sleep, Deep power-down, and Battery-off - with <50 nA current draw in battery-off mode at 3.0 V. Temperature sensing uses a calibrated on-die sensor with ±0.3 °C accuracy over 0–45 °C.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar temperature-monitoring NFC tag applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ST25DV64K | EEPROM-based NFC tag with integrated temperature sensor (±1.5 °C), no MCU, no programmable logic | Limited to basic read-only logging; no firmware customization, no RTC, no I²C expansion | Select when only passive NFC readout and minimal functionality are required; lower cost but no processing autonomy |
| ATSHA204A + ATtiny412 | Discrete secure element + ultra-low-power MCU; requires external temperature sensor and NFC frontend | Higher BOM count and layout complexity; enables custom crypto and sensor fusion but lacks integrated NFC antenna interface | Select when cryptographic authentication or multi-sensor fusion is mandatory; NHS3100TEMOADKUL reduces component count by 4+ parts |
Compared with ST25DV64K and ATSHA204A+ATtiny412, NHS3100TEMOADKUL uniquely combines certified NFC, Arm Cortex-M0+ programmability, calibrated temperature sensing, and <50 nA battery-off current in a single HVQFN24 package - eliminating discrete NFC frontend, MCU, sensor, and power management ICs.

FAQ
What power sources does the NHS3100TEMOADKUL support?
The NHS3100TEMOADKUL supports dual power sources: a 1.72–3.6 V external battery connected to VDDBAT, and energy harvested from an NFC field via LA/LB antenna terminals. An automatic source selector prioritizes VDDBAT when both are present, and enables seamless switchover if one source fails. In passive NFC mode, it operates entirely without battery.
How accurate is the integrated temperature sensor in NHS3100TEMOADKUL?
The NHS3100TEMOADKUL features a factory-calibrated on-die temperature sensor with ±0.3 °C absolute accuracy over 0–45 °C, ±0.5 °C from −40 °C to 0 °C, and ±0.5 °C from +45 °C to +85 °C. This performance is specified and tested per the NHS3100 datasheet Rev. 8.03 and enables reliable cold-chain validation without external calibration.
Does NHS3100TEMOADKUL require external components for NFC operation?
Yes - NHS3100TEMOADKUL requires an external NFC antenna (typically a printed copper loop) connected to LA and LB terminals. No external matching network is needed due to integrated tuning; however, a 100 nF capacitor may be added to a high-drive GPIO pad for enhanced NFC field coupling in passive mode.
Can NHS3100TEMOADKUL operate without firmware programming?
No - NHS3100TEMOADKUL ships unprogrammed. It requires user firmware loaded via Arm SWD (using SWCLK/SWDIO pins) to define temperature logging intervals, NFC data structure, wake-up triggers, and I/O behavior. The Arm Cortex-M0+ core does not execute factory-default application code.
Is NHS3100TEMOADKUL pin-compatible with other NHS3100 variants?
Yes - NHS3100TEMOADKUL uses the HVQFN24 (SOT616-3) package and shares identical pinout and electrical characteristics with the base NHS3100 variant. It is not pin-compatible with NHS3100UK (WLCSP25) or NHS3100W8 (bumped die), which have different ball/bump layouts and mechanical footprints.
