Product details
Overview
NHS3152TEMOADKUL from NXP Semiconductors is a therapy adherence resistive monitor IC integrating an Arm Cortex-M0+ processor, NFC/RFID ISO 14443 Type A interface, six-channel analog I/O with flexible on-chip switch matrix, embedded temperature sensor (±0.3 °C accuracy in 0–45 °C), and ultra-low-power operation down to <50 nA in battery-off mode. It enables single-layer foil-based pill usage monitoring with minimal external components.
For engineers reviewing the NHS3152TEMOADKUL datasheet, NHS3152TEMOADKUL pinout, NHS3152TEMOADKUL application, or NHS3152TEMOADKUL equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, HVQFN24 package mapping, NFC-powered and battery-powered dual-mode operation details, and real-world therapy logging use cases - all grounded in NXP's Rev. 5.02 product data sheet.
Technical Context
The NHS3152TEMOADKUL implements a dual-oscillator clock system: an 8 MHz internal RC oscillator (2 % trimmed) for system timing and a dedicated 32.768 kHz timer oscillator for RTC and wake-up functions. Its power architecture features automatic source selection between VDDBAT (1.72–3.6 V) and NFC field-derived power, with seamless switchover and PMU-controlled deep power-down states.
It integrates a programmable analog switch matrix enabling time-division multiplexing across six analog inputs (AN0_0–AN0_5), routing to shared ADC/DAC/CDC peripherals. The Arm Cortex-M0+ core includes NVIC, SWD debug, and configurable CPU frequency up to 8 MHz - all optimized for secure, low-energy medical event logging without external microcontroller support.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar therapy adherence monitoring applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| NHS3100 | Lower integration: no embedded Arm core, no EEPROM, only basic NFC + analog sensing; 12-bit ADC only. | Limited to simple binary pill-removed detection; cannot run custom firmware or store multi-event logs. | Select NHS3100 only for cost-sensitive, single-event applications where firmware flexibility and local storage are unnecessary. |
| ST25DV64KC | EEPROM + NFC Type 5 IC; no MCU, no analog sensing, no temperature sensor, no GPIO. | Passive data storage only; requires external microcontroller for resistive sensing and logic - increases system complexity and power use. | Choose ST25DV64KC only when leveraging existing host MCU infrastructure and NFC-only readout suffices. |
Compared with NHS3152TEMOADKUL, NHS3100 lacks programmability and local storage, while ST25DV64KC requires external processing - making NHS3152TEMOADKUL the only single-chip solution supporting autonomous, temperature-compensated, NFC-readable therapy adherence logging.

FAQ
What power sources does the NHS3152TEMOADKUL support?
The NHS3152TEMOADKUL supports dual power modes: direct battery connection (1.72–3.6 V via VDDBAT) and passive NFC field harvesting. Its integrated PMU automatically selects VDDBAT when present and switches to NFC power if battery voltage drops below threshold - ensuring uninterrupted operation in NHS3152TEMOADKUL-based adherence systems.
How does the NHS3152TEMOADKUL achieve ultra-low power consumption in storage mode?
The NHS3152TEMOADKUL achieves <50 nA current draw in battery-off mode by powering down all domains except the always-on VDD_ALON rail, disabling LDOs, and retaining only GPREGx registers. This state preserves configuration and enables wake-up via RESETN, RTC, or NFC field detection - critical for NHS3152TEMOADKUL's multi-year shelf-life requirement.
Can the NHS3152TEMOADKUL perform temperature-compensated resistive measurements?
Yes. The NHS3152TEMOADKUL integrates a calibrated on-die temperature sensor (±0.3 °C accuracy from 0–45 °C) and a flexible analog switch matrix that routes AN0_0–AN0_5 to its ADC/CDC. Firmware can synchronize temperature reads with foil resistance measurements - enabling real-time NHS3152TEMOADKUL-based compensation without external sensors.
Is the NHS3152TEMOADKUL pin-compatible with other NXP adherence ICs like NHS3100?
No. NHS3152TEMOADKUL uses HVQFN24 (SOT616-3) or WLCSP25 packages with 24/25 terminals and a distinct pinout including LA/LB NFC antenna pads and six dedicated analog inputs. NHS3100 uses a different package and lacks LA/LB, AN0_x, and high-drive GPIO - making them not pin-compatible; redesign is required when substituting NHS3152TEMOADKUL.
What debug interface does the NHS3152TEMOADKUL provide for firmware development?
The NHS3152TEMOADKUL provides Arm Serial Wire Debug (SWD) via dedicated SWCLK and SWDIO pins (Pins 15 and 16 in HVQFN24), supporting full halting debug, breakpoints, and watchpoints. This enables direct firmware validation and field diagnostics on NHS3152TEMOADKUL without additional debug hardware - accelerating development of custom adherence algorithms.
