Designed for quick integration into a very wide range of systems, the PN7160 supports all NFC Forum modes, includes drivers for Android and Linux, and supports RTOS and no OS applications. Embedded NFC firmware reduces the need for host interactions and minimizes code size, making design-in that much easier. Available with an I2C or SPI interface, the PN7160 is compatible with popular MCUs, including LPC, Kinetis and i.MX. The PN7161 version adds support for Apple ECP.
