Product details
Overview
OM5577/PN7120ARDM from NXP Semiconductors is an Arduino-compatible single-board computer (SBC) expansion kit centered on the PN7120 NFC Controller IC. It supports full NFC Forum-compliant Reader, Peer-to-Peer (P2P), and Card Emulation modes, features an integrated high-performance RF antenna, and enables rapid prototyping of NFC-enabled Linux, Android, RTOS, and Null OS applications on UDOO Neo, FRDM-K64F, and LPCXpresso platforms.
For engineers reviewing the OM5577/PN7120ARDM datasheet, OM5577/PN7120ARDM pinout, OM5577/PN7120ARDM application, or OM5577/PN7120ARDM equivalent, this page delivers verified hardware integration details, supported OS stacks (Linux libnfc-nci, Android AOSP with patches, MCUXpresso RTOS examples), and validated platform compatibility with UDOO Neo, FRDM-K64F, OM13071, OM13074, and OM13058.
Technical Context
The OM5577/PN7120ARDM implements the PN7120 NFC Controller via standardized NCI (NFC Controller Interface) v1.1 protocol over I²C, enabling host-agnostic interoperability. It integrates a tuned 13.56 MHz RF front-end with matching network and embedded PCB antenna optimized for >4 cm read range with ISO/IEC 14443A/B, Felica, and ISO/IEC 18092 P2P targets.
Hardware abstraction is provided through dedicated interface board logic that routes I²C, GPIO, and IRQ signals between the PN7120 and Arduino-compatible headers. The kit includes pre-certified firmware supporting NFC Forum Tag Types 1–4, MIFARE Classic, and ISO/IEC 15693, with no host-side RF tuning required.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| NFC Standard Support | Fully compliant with ISO/IEC 14443A/B, ISO/IEC 18092 (P2P), ISO/IEC 15693, FeliCa, and NFC Forum Tag Types 1–4 - enables interoperability with all major contactless smart cards and mobile devices. |
| Interface Protocol | NCI v1.1 over I²C (400 kHz standard mode) - ensures deterministic timing, low-latency command/response, and seamless integration with Linux libnfc-nci and Android NCI HAL layers. |
| RF Antenna | Integrated PCB loop antenna with impedance-matched RF front-end - delivers stable >4 cm read/write range without external tuning components or calibration. |
| Host Platform Compatibility | Arduino Uno R3 pinout compatible - allows direct stacking on UDOO Neo (inner header), FRDM-K64F, OM13071, OM13074, and OM13058 without adapters or wiring changes. |
| Software Stack Support | Production-ready drivers for GNU/Linux (libnfc-nci), Android AOSP (with NXP patches), and RTOS/Null OS (MCUXpresso SDK examples) - eliminates bring-up time for NFC functionality across OS environments. |
| Operating Modes | Reader/Writer, Peer-to-Peer (Initiator/Target), and Card Emulation (T4T) - supports complete NFC use cases including tag interrogation, data exchange, and secure element emulation. |

FAQ
What platforms does the OM5577/PN7120ARDM support out of the box?
The OM5577/PN7120ARDM is validated for immediate use with UDOO Neo (Linux and Android demo images), FRDM-K64F, OM13071, OM13074, and OM13058 development boards. All require only physical stacking via Arduino-compatible headers and pre-integrated software stacks - no hardware modification or custom driver development is needed to run the included NFC demo applications on OM5577/PN7120ARDM.
Does the OM5577/PN7120ARDM include NFC firmware, and is it field-upgradable?
Yes, the OM5577/PN7120ARDM ships with factory-programmed PN7120 firmware supporting full NCI v1.1 compliance and all standard NFC modes. Firmware updates are supported via I²C using NXP's official tools and are documented in UM11008 - enabling security patching, feature enhancements, and certification maintenance throughout the product lifecycle of OM5577/PN7120ARDM.
Can the OM5577/PN7120ARDM operate without an operating system?
Yes, the OM5577/PN7120ARDM supports Null OS and RTOS environments via MCUXpresso SDK examples. These provide bare-metal NCI command wrappers and interrupt-driven event handling, allowing direct integration into resource-constrained systems where Linux or Android are impractical - confirmed functional on OM5577/PN7120ARDM with Kinetis K64 and LPC82x MCUs.
What NFC tag types can the OM5577/PN7120ARDM read and write?
The OM5577/PN7120ARDM reads and writes NFC Forum Tag Types 1 through 4, ISO/IEC 14443A/B (including MIFARE Classic), ISO/IEC 15693, and FeliCa. Its built-in firmware handles all anti-collision, framing, and error correction - demonstrated in the Linux nfcDemoApp and Android TagInfo/TagWriter apps shipped with OM5577/PN7120ARDM.
Is antenna tuning required when using the OM5577/PN7120ARDM on different carrier boards?
No antenna tuning is required. The OM5577/PN7120ARDM integrates a fully matched 13.56 MHz PCB antenna with optimized layout and impedance compensation. Performance remains consistent across supported platforms (UDOO Neo, FRDM-K64F, etc.) because the RF path is self-contained - no external capacitors, inductors, or calibration routines are needed for OM5577/PN7120ARDM operation.
