Product details
Overview
ST25DV64KC-IE8T3 from STMicroelectronics is a dynamic NFC/RFID tag IC with 64-Kbit EEPROM, dual I²C and ISO/IEC 15693 contactless interfaces, fast transfer mode (256-byte buffer), energy harvesting output (VEH), and configurable GPO interrupt. It operates from 1.8–5.5 V, supports 1 MHz I²C, and delivers 40-year data retention at 1 million write cycles (25 °C). Used in smart packaging, industrial asset tagging, and secure device configuration where wired + wireless memory access is required.
For engineers reviewing the ST25DV64KC-IE8T3 datasheet, ST25DV64KC-IE8T3 pinout, ST25DV64KC-IE8T3 application, or ST25DV64KC-IE8T3 equivalent, key selection criteria include RF/I²C coexistence timing, GPO event configurability (field change, fast transfer completion), block-vs-byte addressing mapping, and LPD-enabled low-power operation in WLCSP10/UFDFPN12 packages.
Technical Context
The ST25DV64KC-IE8T3 integrates two independent memory access paths: I²C interface addresses user memory byte-wise (8192 bytes), while RF interface accesses it block-wise (2048 blocks × 4 bytes) per ISO/IEC 15693. Its 256-byte volatile fast-transfer buffer enables synchronous data exchange between interfaces without host intervention.
It implements dual protection architecture: three 64-bit RF passwords and one 64-bit I²C password for user memory areas, plus separate 64-bit system configuration password. The analog energy harvesting output (VEH) delivers unregulated voltage under sufficient RF field strength, enabling passive peripheral power.
Key Specifications

Pinout & Package
ST25DV64KC-IE8T3 is supplied in SO8N (8-pin narrow SOIC) package with open-drain GPO output and no LPD/VDCG pins. Package meets ECOPACK2 RoHS requirements and includes exposed pad (EP) left floating.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VEH | Energy harvesting analog output | Delivers unregulated RF-derived voltage to power external sensors or logic; high-Z when inactive |
| AC0 / AC1 | RF antenna coil terminals | Differential inputs for external LC tank; internal 28.5 pF tuning capacitance reduces external component count |
| VSS | Ground reference | Common return for VCC, VEH, and analog RF front-end; must be low-impedance |
| VCC | DC supply input | 1.8–5.5 V DC power source; internal regulator isolates I²C domain from RF rectified supply |
| GPO | Configurable interrupt output | Open-drain output requiring external pull-up; signals RF field detection, memory write completion, or fast transfer events |
| SCL | I²C clock input | Master-generated clock; requires external pull-up; supports 1 MHz operation with proper bus capacitance |
| SDA | I²C bidirectional data | Open-drain I/O shared across multiple devices; pull-up resistor mandatory for bus arbitration |
Key Features

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dynamic NFC tag applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ST25DV16KC-IE8T3 | 16-Kbit EEPROM (2048 bytes), same pinout and feature set | Limited to simpler configurations where <2 KB persistent data suffices | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs memory headroom; identical layout and firmware compatibility |
| NXH3670UK/NXH3670UK/1 | Integrated NFC controller + EEPROM (64 KB), but lacks I²C interface and energy harvesting output | Requires external MCU for host-side logic; no VEH-driven peripherals possible | Choose only if standalone NFC reader functionality is primary; not a drop-in replacement for dual-interface use cases |
Compared with ST25DV16KC-IE8T3, this part doubles memory for complex firmware metadata or multi-language labels; versus NXH3670UK, it retains critical I²C configurability and energy harvesting-enabling true hybrid wired/wireless system integration.

FAQ
What is the maximum RF data rate supported by ST25DV64KC-IE8T3?
The device supports ISO/IEC 15693 high-speed mode up to 53 Kbit/s for custom fast read operations. Standard read/write commands operate at 26.48 Kbit/s (1-out-of-4 coding, 2-subcarrier). This enables rapid inventory scans in logistics or retail environments without compromising compatibility with legacy readers.
How does the fast transfer mode buffer function between I²C and RF interfaces?
The 256-byte volatile buffer acts as a mailbox: data written via I²C can be read via RF (and vice versa) without host CPU intervention. A GPO pulse signals buffer readiness, and the buffer is automatically cleared after RF read or I²C read-ensuring atomic, race-free handoff in real-time systems.
Can ST25DV64KC-IE8T3 operate without a DC supply (VCC)?
Yes-it functions solely in RF mode when VCC is unconnected, drawing power from the RF field via AC0/AC1. In this mode, I²C is disabled, but all RF features (memory access, GPO events, energy harvesting) remain fully operational, supporting truly contactless applications.
What is the purpose of the LPD pin, and is it present on ST25DV64KC-IE8T3?
The LPD pin disables the internal 1.8 V regulator to reduce standby current below 1 µA. However, ST25DV64KC-IE8T3 uses the SO8N package, which does not include LPD or VDCG pins. LPD is only available on WLCSP10 and UFDFPN12 variants for ultra-low-power designs.
