Product overview

Description

The ST54K is a single-die solution integrating a contactless front-end (CLF) and a secure element, called ST54K_CLF and ST54K_SE, respectively. It is designed for integration in mobile devices and NFC-compliant products.

The ST54K_CLF includes near-field communication (NFC) functions in the three operating modes: Card Emulation, Reader/Writer and Peer-to-Peer communication.

It is best in class in terms of RF output power (up to 2 W). With its outstanding output power and optimized efficiency, the ST54K driver can be connected to metal frame antennas. Thanks to improved low-power card detection sensitivity, in Reader/Writer mode, the ST54K_CLF operating in low-power mode is capable of detecting the presence of a card/tag from a distance greater than the Reader mode performance.

In Card Emulation mode, the ST54K_CLF is capable of operating without an external quartz or an external reference clock source, contributing to further reducing the current consumption of the system in low-power mode. Moreover, thanks to its improved field detection sensitivity, the ST54K_CLF is capable, in low-power mode, of detecting the presence of a reader's RF field from a distance greater than the CE mode performance.

The ST54K_SE is a serial access microcontroller designed for secure mobile applications. It incorporates the most recent generation of Arm® processors for embedded secure systems. The SecurCore® SC300™ 32-bit RISC core is built on the Cortex®-M3 core, with additional security features to help to protect against advanced forms of attacks.

The ST54K device offers connectivity and security with its UWB subsystem, which supports emerging secure fine ranging as defined and standardized by the Car Connectivity Consortium® (CCC) and the FiRa™ Consortium.

The CCC specifies and ensures the interoperability of digital key (DK) phase 3 seamless car opening applications while the FiRa™ Consortium specifies and ensures the interoperability of multiple UWB use cases including access control and transit.
