Product details
Overview
ST25DV64K-IER8S3 from STMicroelectronics is a dynamic NFC/RFID tag IC with dual I²C and ISO/IEC 15693 contactless interfaces, 64 Kbit EEPROM, 256-byte fast-transfer buffer, and energy harvesting output (VEH). It operates from 1.8–5.5 V, supports 1 MHz I²C, and delivers up to 53 Kbit/s RF read speed - deployed in smart sensors, industrial asset tags, and NFC-enabled medical devices for secure, battery-free data exchange.
For engineers reviewing the ST25DV64K-IER8S3 datasheet, ST25DV64K-IER8S3 pinout, ST25DV64K-IER8S3 application, or ST25DV64K-IER8S3 equivalent, key selection criteria include RF/I²C dual-interface coordination, configurable GPO interrupt behavior, 4-area memory protection with 64-bit passwords, and LPD-enabled low-power mode in 10-ball/12-pin packages.
Technical Context
The device implements a dual-world architecture: I²C interface accesses memory byte-wise (up to 8192 bytes), while RF interface accesses 4-byte blocks (up to 2048 blocks) per ISO/IEC 15693 and NFC Forum Type 5 compliance. Its internal 28.5 pF tuning capacitance eliminates external matching components for standard antenna designs.
Fast Transfer Mode uses a dedicated 256-byte volatile mailbox buffer to enable synchronous data handoff between RF and I²C domains without host intervention. The GPO pin supports configurable event reporting - including RF field change, memory write completion, and Fast Transfer end - with open-drain (IE version) or CMOS (JF version) output logic.

Pinout & Package
ST25DV64K-IER8S3 is supplied in an 8-pin UFDFPN8 package (ECOPACK2, RoHS-compliant), featuring exposed pad (EP) and open-drain GPO output. Pin functions are validated per STMicroelectronics DS10925 Rev 11 (pages 4–5).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC | DC supply input | Accepts 1.8–5.5 V; powers internal regulator and I²C logic - decoupling capacitor (10–100 nF) required near pins |
| VSS | Ground reference | Common return for VCC, VDCG, and VEH; must be low-impedance connection to minimize noise coupling into RF front-end |
| SDA | I²C bidirectional data | Open-drain I/O requiring external pull-up (>4.7 kΩ); supports multi-master arbitration and clock stretching |
| SCL | I²C clock input | Input-only; requires same pull-up as SDA; timing compliant with standard-mode and fast-mode I²C specifications |
| GPO | Configurable interrupt output | Open-drain output (IE version); asserts low on RF field change, memory write, or Fast Transfer completion - used for MCU wake-up or status signaling |
| VEH | Energy harvesting analog output | Delivers unregulated RF-derived voltage when field strength suffices; high-Z when inactive - powers auxiliary sensors or bias circuits |
| AC0 / AC1 | RF antenna interface | Differential inputs for external LC tank; no DC path allowed; internal 28.5 pF tuning capacitance simplifies impedance matching |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Two independent interfaces | I²C (wired, byte-addressed) + ISO/IEC 15693 RF (contactless, block-addressed) - enables simultaneous local configuration and remote interrogation |
| Four-user-memory protection areas | Each area independently secured by up to three 64-bit RF passwords and one 64-bit I²C password - supports tiered access control in multi-role IoT nodes |
| 256-byte Fast Transfer buffer | Volatile mailbox enabling atomic data exchange between RF and I²C domains - eliminates race conditions during firmware updates or sensor log transfers |
| Configurable GPO events | Programmable interrupt sources (field detect, write complete, Fast Transfer end) - reduces polling overhead and extends host MCU sleep duration |
| Energy harvesting output (VEH) | Analog voltage sourced from RF field - powers external comparators, temperature sensors, or low-threshold logic without battery dependency |
Applications

FAQ
What is the function of the VEH pin, and what load can it drive?
The VEH pin delivers unregulated analog voltage harvested from the RF field, active only when field strength exceeds threshold and energy harvesting mode is enabled. It provides up to 3.3 V open-circuit output with ~1 mA short-circuit current capability - sufficient to power low-quiescent-current comparators, thermistors, or reset supervisors, but not intended for driving LEDs or logic gates directly.
How does memory protection work across I²C and RF interfaces?
User memory is divided into four configurable areas, each protected by up to three independent 64-bit RF passwords and one 64-bit I²C password. Access control is enforced per interface: RF commands respect area boundaries and password checks before read/write; I²C commands require successful password authentication before modifying ENDA registers or accessing protected zones - preventing cross-interface privilege escalation.
Can the GPO pin operate without external pull-up resistors?
No. The ST25DV64K-IER8S3 variant features an open-drain GPO output requiring an external pull-up resistor ≥4.7 kΩ to VCC. Without this resistor, GPO remains floating and cannot assert valid logic-low interrupts. CMOS-output variants (e.g., ST25DV64K-JF) require VDCG supply and do not need pull-up, but ST25DV64K-IER8S3 does not support VDCG.
What is the maximum RF read speed, and under what conditions is it achieved?
The maximum RF read speed is 53 Kbit/s, achieved using the "Fast Read Multiple Blocks" command with optimized antenna coupling and field strength ≥5 A/m. This speed applies only to contiguous block reads (not single-block) and requires the RF reader to support ISO/IEC 15693 high-data-rate mode - standard NFC smartphones typically operate at 26 Kbit/s due to protocol overhead and field limitations.
