Description

M24LR-DISCOVERY is a ready-to-use kit which features the M24LR04E-R Dual Interface

EEPROM IC. It addresses a wide range of applications such as industrial or medical

equipment and consumer electronics. This kit contains 2 different boards, as shown in the

figure on cover page.

The M24LR board is battery-less and is powered by RFID readers or NFC-enabled phones

supporting ISO/IEC 15693.

The RF transceiver board is an RFID reader demonstration board and is composed, among

other parts, of a CR95HF (13.56 MHz multi-protocol contactless transceiver IC with SPI and

UART serial access). This board has to be plugged in to a PC and comes with a

demonstration software.

The M24LR board also works with Android NFC phones supporting ISO/IEC 15693. An

application called NfcV-Reader is available on Google Play. Performance may vary

depending on NFC phone's RF management.
