Product details
Overview
QN9080-001-M17 from NXP Semiconductors is an ultra-low-power, fully certified Bluetooth 5.0 and NFC-enabled System-in-Package (SIP) module integrating QN9080 SoC and NT3H2211 NFC IC. It delivers -92.7 dBm RX sensitivity at 1 Mbps, +2 dBm TX output, 512 KB flash/128 KB SRAM, and operates from 1.67–3.6 V across -40 °C to +85 °C - designed for compact portable wireless devices requiring BLE connectivity and tap-and-go NFC pairing.
For engineers reviewing the QN9080-001-M17 datasheet, QN9080-001-M17 pinout, QN9080-001-M17 application, or QN9080-001-M17 equivalent, key selection considerations include integrated antenna performance, dual-die power management interaction, NFC I²C interface timing constraints, and SIP-level FCC/CE/IC/MIC modular certification validity.
Technical Context
The QN9080-001-M17 combines a 32 MHz Arm Cortex-M4F core with Fusion Signal Processor (FSP) offloading sensor fusion math, and integrates NT3H2211 NFC Forum Type 2 Tag IC via dedicated I²C interface. Its RF subsystem includes a monolithic 2.4 GHz antenna, integrated 32 MHz and 32.768 kHz crystals, and on-chip balun with single-ended RF port.
Power architecture features programmable PMU, DC-DC buck converter, and two ultra-low-power modes: 1 µA wake-up-by-GPIO and 2.5 µA wake-up-by-RTC/sleep timer/GPIO. The SIP supports concurrent central/peripheral roles, 16 simultaneous BLE links, secure connections, and data length extension - all within a single 6 × 9.7 × 1.17 mm LFLGA54 package.

Pinout & Package
The QN9080-001-M17 uses a 54-pin LFLGA package (6 × 9.7 × 1.17 mm) with exposed ground pads (pins 45–47, 51–54) and dedicated RF/NFC terminals including ANT_IN (pin 23), RF_OUT (pin 24), LA/LB (pins 7/6), NTAG_FD (pin 37), and NTAG_VCC (pin 39). Unused GPIOs must be configured as outputs driven LOW with internal pull-ups disabled per NXP guidance.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| ANT_IN (23) | Integrated antenna input | Direct connection to monolithic 2.4 GHz antenna; no external matching required for certified operation. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar Bluetooth 5.0 + NFC SIP applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| QN9080-001-M16 | Same die and SIP architecture but uses LFLGA48 package (5.5 × 8.2 × 1.17 mm); lacks NT3H2211 NFC IC and integrated 32.768 kHz crystal. | Requires external NFC controller and RTC crystal; suitable only where NFC is optional and board space is more constrained. | Select M16 only if NFC functionality is omitted and footprint reduction justifies added component count and layout complexity. |
| DA14695-00000FX | Dialog Semiconductor SIP with Arm Cortex-M33, 2 MB flash, but no integrated NFC IC; requires external NFC chip and antenna matching. | Higher compute headroom and larger memory, but no native NFC tap-and-go; certification applies only to RF layer, not full SIP. | Choose DA14695 only when application demands >512 KB flash or M33 security extensions, and NFC can be implemented separately. |
Compared with QN9080-001-M16 and DA14695-00000FX, the QN9080-001-M17 uniquely delivers certified NFC+BLE co-integration in one SIP - eliminating external NFC IC, crystal, and RF matching components while preserving modular certification coverage.

FAQ
What certifications apply to the QN9080-001-M17?
QN9080-001-M17 holds full modular certifications: FCC ID XXMQN9080M17, IC ID 8764A-QN9080M17, CE RED, and Japan MIC. These cover the entire SIP - including integrated antenna, crystals, and NFC - when used per datasheet layout guidelines. Certification does not extend to external antennas or modified RF paths.
Does the QN9080-001-M17 require external RF matching components?
No. The QN9080-001-M17 integrates a monolithic 2.4 GHz antenna, 32 MHz crystal, 32.768 kHz crystal, harmonic filter, and on-chip balun. When using the internal antenna (ANT_IN pin 23), no external RF matching is needed - confirmed by its FCC modular approval and validated in reference design AN12056.
How does NFC functionality interface with the host processor in the QN9080-001-M17?
The NT3H2211 NFC IC interfaces exclusively via I²C to the QN9080 die. Pins SCL/SDA (flexcomm 1) connect to NTAG_VCC (pin 39) and NTAG_FD (pin 37). The host accesses 1912-byte EEPROM and 64-byte SRAM buffer using standard I²C commands, with field detection enabling wake-up from power-down mode.
What is the role of the Fusion Signal Processor (FSP) in the QN9080-001-M17?
The FSP in QN9080-001-M17 is a dedicated hardware accelerator for sensor fusion algorithms (e.g., 9-axis AHRS) and lightweight machine learning inference. It operates independently of the Cortex-M4F core, reducing active CPU time by up to 65% and lowering average system current - critical for battery longevity in wearables.
Can the QN9080-001-M17 operate with only the NFC interface powered?
Yes. NT3H2211 supports energy harvesting: NFC field power delivered to NTAG_VCC (pin 39) generates VOUT (pin 40) up to 3.3 V. This allows the NTAG to function autonomously - storing data or signaling events - even when the QN9080 die is in 1 µA power-down mode, enabling true zero-power NFC tag behavior.
