Product details
Overview
OM5569/NT322EM from NXP Semiconductors is a connected NFC tag integrating ISO/IEC 14443A-compliant passive NFC and I²C interfaces, featuring 888-byte EEPROM user memory, 64-byte SRAM pass-through buffer, and ECC-based originality signature - enabling tap-and-go configuration in smart home sensors and wearable infotainment devices.
For engineers reviewing the OM5569/NT322EM datasheet, OM5569/NT322EM pinout, OM5569/NT322EM application, or OM5569/NT322EM equivalent, key selection criteria include field-detection wake-up capability, dual-interface memory access control, energy harvesting output, NFC Forum Type 2 compliance, and XQFN8 package compatibility with compact PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The OM5569/NT322EM implements a dual-interface architecture where NFC and I²C share non-volatile memory with arbitration logic to prevent concurrent access conflicts; it supports standard (100 kHz) and fast (400 kHz) I²C modes while maintaining ISO/IEC 14443A Part 2&3 and NFC Forum Type 2 Tag compliance.
Its security model enforces granular memory access via 32-bit password protection per interface and includes an ECC-based 32-byte originality signature for anti-cloning; energy harvesting delivers up to 3.3 V at 5 mA from the NFC field to power external MCUs or sensors.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar connected NFC tag applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| NT3H2201W0FHKH | 2 kB user memory; TSSOP8 package; same I²C/NFC feature set but higher memory density | Better suited for multi-profile accessories requiring >1 kB of persistent config storage | Select when extended memory for firmware metadata or multi-language UI strings is required |
| NTAG213 | Single-interface (NFC-only); no I²C, no energy harvesting, no SRAM buffer; 144-byte memory | Limited to basic NFC tag use cases like URL writing or simple ID storage | Choose only for cost-sensitive, single-function NFC labeling - not for dual-interface or power-harvesting designs |

FAQ
What is the primary function of the OM5569/NT322EM in an embedded system?
The OM5569/NT322EM serves as a dual-interface connected NFC tag that bridges smartphone NFC interaction with on-board I²C peripherals. It enables tap-initiated configuration, secure data exchange, and energy harvesting to power companion MCUs - all without local battery. Its role in the OM5569/NT322EM is foundational to zero-power, authenticated device onboarding in smart home and wearable products.
Does the OM5569/NT322EM support both standard and fast-mode I²C communication?
Yes, the OM5569/NT322EM supports both standard-mode (100 kHz) and fast-mode (400 kHz) I²C communication. This dual-speed capability allows flexible integration with legacy microcontrollers and high-performance sensors. The I²C interface operates across 1.67–3.6 V, and arbitration logic ensures safe memory access when both NFC and I²C attempt concurrent reads - a core behavior confirmed in the OM5569/NT322EM datasheet.
How does the energy harvesting feature of the OM5569/NT322EM work in practice?
The OM5569/NT322EM harvests energy directly from the 13.56 MHz NFC field to generate regulated DC output (up to 3.3 V, 5 mA) on the EH pin. This powers external circuitry - such as a low-power MCU - only during NFC interrogation, eliminating standby battery drain. Field detection on the FD pin synchronizes wake-up, ensuring the OM5569/NT322EM delivers energy precisely when needed for secure, low-latency interaction.
Is the OM5569/NT322EM compatible with NFC Forum Type 2 Tag readers?
Yes, the OM5569/NT322EM is fully compliant with NFC Forum Type 2 Tag specifications and ISO/IEC 14443A Parts 2 and 3. It responds to standard NFC commands including GET VERSION and FAST READ/WRITE, and features a fixed 7-byte unique serial number. This ensures out-of-box interoperability with all certified smartphones and readers - a verified behavior of the OM5569/NT322EM across Android, iOS, and Windows platforms.
What security mechanisms does the OM5569/NT322EM provide for memory access control?
The OM5569/NT322EM implements independent 32-bit password protection for both NFC and I²C interfaces, allowing fine-grained segmentation of memory into open, read-only, or locked regions. It also includes an ECC-based 32-byte originality signature to prevent cloning. These protections are hardware-enforced and active upon power-up - meaning every OM5569/NT322EM instance delivers authenticated, tamper-resistant data exchange without software overhead.
