ST STSW-ST25DV002 Manuel utilisateur
Introduction
This document describes the functionalities of the STSW-ST25DV002 firmware, developed to take full advantage of the
ST25DV64KC-DISCO board functionalities, working with any dynamic tag of the ST25DV-I2C Series.
In this document, the dynamic tag series from STMicroelecronics is referred to as ST25DV-I2C tags.
The ST25DV-I2C tags are integrated circuits (IC) for contactless applications that communicate with a microcontroller through
an I2C interface; this makes this device a dynamic tag. On the RF side, the reader (for instance a smart phone) retrieves and
updates the content of the tag when close by.
The reader communicates with the ST25DV64KC-DISCO board using the ISO 15693 protocol, while the STM32L476xx
microcontroller device communicates with the ST25DV-I2C tag through an I2C bus.
With this discovery kit, the ST25DV-I2C tag is ready to receive any content, following the NFC Forum standard. This means that
a smart phone is able to natively read it, without having previously installed any specific application.
A specific Fast transfer mode allows the user to transfer data directly to the microcontroller, without using the embedded
EEPROM.

4Firmware description
4.1 Prerequisite
The ST25DV-I2C tag is a dynamic tag, whose content and configuration is driven by both a microcontroller
(through I²C) and a reader through RF.
To benefit from the ST25DV64KC-DISCO demonstration kit, the user must have one of the following:
• A smart phone with the NFC enabled, combined with the ST25 NFC App installed on it. Refer to ST25
Android™ NFC tap application (UM2131), available on www.st.com for more information.
• An NFC reader, such as the CR95HF distributed with the M24LR discovery kit (M24LR-DISCOVERY). To
take full advantage of the ST25DV-I2C tag features, use CR95HF transceiver board firmware version 3.7.0
or higher, combined with the ST25PC-NFC software. Refer to Software toolbox for NFC tags user manual
(UM2444), available on www.st.com.
The ST25DV-I2C tag is fully compliant with the NFC Forum Type 5 standard. As this standard is recently
introduced, some features may not be fully supported by older smart phones.
4.2 Main menu
The main menu (Figure 4) is composed of three icons, used to access sub-menus.
Figure 4. ST25DV64KC-DISCO main menu display

4.2.2 RF GPO interrupt demonstration
The ST25DV-I2C tag has a GPO that is used to send interrupts to the microcontroller.
Several kinds of event on the RF side may be configured to trigger the GPO interrupt. In this demonstration
all possible interrupt sources are enabled, except for the "RF activity", which occurs too often for reasonable
readability when using a smart phone as a reader.
To start the demonstration, select the "GPO control demo" menu, this displays the instructions until it detects a
GPO interrupt.
As soon as the first GPO interrupt is received, the LCD displays the list of sources of received interrupt, and the
number of each interrupt occurrences (see Figure 6).
Figure 6. ST25DV64KC-DISCO interrupt generation display
The event types and the way to generate them are listed below:
• Field on: place a reader near the ST25DV-I2C tag
• Field off: move a reader away from the ST25DV-I2C tag
• EEPROM written: modify the content of the ST25DV-I2C tag
• RF interrupt: requires the use of a specific reader instruction, that is sent either by a smart phone running
the ST25 NFC app, or by a reader (see the instructions in Smart phone GPO management and Generating
the RF and RF user interrupts using the ST25PC-NFC software with the CR95HF sections, respectively, for
Android™ ST25 NFC application and for the CR95HF reader used with the ST25PC-NFC software)
• RF user: requires the use of a specific reader command, that is sent either by a smart phone running the
ST25 NFC app or by a reader (see the instructions in Smart phone GPO management and Generating the
RF and RF user interrupts using the ST25PC-NFC software with the CR95HF sections, respectively, for the
Android™ ST25 NFC application and for the CR95HF reader used with the ST25PC-NFC software)
To start the Android ST25 NFC application, read the ST25DV-I2C tag with a smart phone (after entering the GPO
demonstration), which automatically opens the required application (or propose the installation of the application).
The automatic application selection is done using an NDEF with an AAR.
Note: The mailbox events are also used to trigger the GPO interrupts. They are not mentioned here, as they would
require placing the ST25DV-I2C tag in the Mailbox mode.
Smart phone GPO management
The ST25 NFC application handles the RF interrupt and the RF user interrupt using register fields information
(see Figure 7). Do not forget to present the configuration password before any register change.

Figure 7. Smart phone GPO register configuration
The ST25 NFC application generates the RF interrupt and the RF user interrupt using features located in the
Tools fragment in association with the RF GPO interrupt demonstration.
Generating the RF and RF user interrupts using the ST25PC-NFC software with the CR95HF
These interrupts are generated by any RF reader or Android™ smart phone.
Using the CR95HF IC and ST25PC-NFC software, the user is able to send interrupts or drive the GPO (see
Figure 8 and Figure 9)
• Select the ST25DV-I2C tag product
• Select "ENERGY HARVESTING" and GPO tab
• Click on "Send Interrupt Generated by GPO" to send an interrupt on GPO line
• Click on GPO set or GPO reset to be able to drive the GPO line.
