How does the NFC functionality differ between QN9030THN/001K and QN9030HN/001K?
QN9030THN/001K integrates an NFC Forum Type 2-compliant NTAG I²C device with dedicated LA/LB antenna pins, while QN9030HN/001K omits this block entirely. This makes QN9030THN/001K capable of NFC-based provisioning, secure key exchange, and tap-triggered actions without external components.
What is the deep power-down current specification for QN9030THN/001K?
QN9030THN/001K achieves a deep power-down current of 350 nA with wake-up capability via GPIOs. This specification is measured under defined conditions including VDD = 3.0 V, Tj = 25 °C, and all clocks gated-enabling multi-year operation on coin-cell batteries in QN9030THN/001K-based sensors.
Which crystal oscillators are required for full QN9030THN/001K operation?
QN9030THN/001K requires two crystals: a 32 MHz fundamental-mode crystal on XTAL_P/XTAL_N for system clock and radio operation, and a 32.768 kHz tuning-fork crystal on XTAL_32K_P/XTAL_32K_N for RTC, low-power timers, and BLE link-layer timing stability in QN9030THN/001K applications.
