Product details
Overview
PN7360AUEV/C300E from NXP Semiconductors is a 32-bit Arm Cortex-M0 NFC microcontroller optimized for contactless-only applications. It delivers 80 kB Flash, 12 kB SRAM, and integrated high-power 13.56 MHz contactless frontend supporting ISO/IEC 14443 A/B, NFC Forum Types 1–5, P2P, and card emulation - enabling EMVCo-compliant payment readers and secure access systems.
For engineers reviewing the PN7360AUEV/C300E datasheet, PN7360AUEV/C300E pinout, PN7360AUEV/C300E application, or PN7360AUEV/C300E equivalent, key selection criteria include its VFBGA64 package, absence of contact interface or ISO/IEC 7816 UART, RF output capability up to 250 mA on TVDD_IN, and support for USB, HSUART, SPI, and I²C host interfaces.
Technical Context
The PN7360AUEV/C300E implements a dedicated CLIF (ContactLess Interface Frontend) with Adaptive Wave Control (AWC), Adaptive Range Control (ARC), and Dynamic Power Control (DPC) for robust field detection and low-power operation. Its Cortex-M0 core runs at up to 20 MHz and integrates a 4 kB EEPROM, 40 kB boot ROM with USB mass storage loader, and four general-purpose timers.
It supports dual LDOs: PVDD_LDO (configurable 3.0–3.6 V) for pad voltage and TX_LDO (3.0–4.75 V) for antenna driver supply. The device operates across –40 °C to +85 °C and features SWD debug, CRC coprocessor, and random number generator - all within a 4.5 mm × 4.5 mm × 0.80 mm VFBGA64 package.

FAQ
What is the primary function of PN7360AUEV/C300E in an NFC system?
PN7360AUEV/C300E serves as a complete standalone NFC controller with integrated Arm Cortex-M0 processor, contactless frontend, and host interfaces. It handles RF communication, protocol stack execution (ISO/IEC 14443, NFC Forum), cryptographic operations, and host command processing - eliminating the need for external transceivers or companion MCUs in contactless-only designs.
Does PN7360AUEV/C300E support contact smart card interfaces?
No. PN7360AUEV/C300E does not include a contact ISO/IEC 7816 interface or associated UART. This is confirmed in Table 1 of the PN7462 family datasheet, which explicitly lists "No" under "Contact smart card reader" and "ISO/IEC 7816" for PN7360AUEV. For dual-interface applications, PN7462AUEV is the appropriate variant.
What package type and dimensions does PN7360AUEV/C300E use?
PN7360AUEV/C300E uses a VFBGA64 package (SOT1307-2) measuring 4.5 mm × 4.5 mm × 0.80 mm with 0.5 mm ball pitch. It features a bottom thermal pad and is compatible with standard reflow profiles for fine-pitch BGAs - verified in the ordering information section (Table 3) and pin description (Table 5) of the datasheet.
Can PN7360AUEV/C300E operate in low-power modes for battery-powered devices?
Yes. PN7360AUEV/C300E supports hard power-down mode (≤18 µA at 3.3 V) and standby mode (≤55 µA with internal PVDD LDO), both wakeable via RF field detection, GPIO, or host interface events. These modes are specified in the Quick Reference Data (Table 2) and enable multi-year battery life in portable NFC readers and IoT sensors.
Which host interfaces are available on PN7360AUEV/C300E?
PN7360AUEV/C300E provides USB 2.0 Full Speed, HSUART (up to 1.288 Mbit/s), SPI (7 Mbit/s), and I²C (Fast Mode Plus). All are documented in Section 2.4 (Cortex-M0 microcontroller → Peripherals → Host interface) and confirmed in the block diagram (Figure 4) - with no contact interface or ISO/IEC 7816 UART present.
