2 Introduction
This application note describes the AS3911 general purpoe Demo board and is usage. The
general purpose board is made for a flexible use, hece the digital part can be separated from
the analogue part. This enables fast software dvelopment since the analogue part can be used
out of the box.
The analog section has several jumpers to allow custom antenna and capacitive electrodes to
be used.

Since the specification of USB-supply voltage can have wt case 4.5 Volt, the supply
Voltage of the device might vary. AS311 has an inteal rgulator that measure the voltage
and adjust the internal regulator such that the voltage on he output driver (for antenna) is
0.3Volt below the supply votage. This adjustmet assure that the digital noise on the supply
of the antenna driver can be rcted and the Voltagfor the antenna driver can be maximized.
Hence, for evaluation purpose, we have impd a jumper P5 which can be used to provide
an external voltage supply to the reader IC.

The used micro controller is a PC24 FJGB002 with internal USB.
Three pins (Pin 1,2 and 3 of the micro controller) bing used for selection of
different Hardware versions of boards.
•
•
Four diodes (D5-D8) display the various condtions of the board.
The connector P2 can used as a alternatie connction to an external micro controller
or to connect to a new developed anasytem of AS3911. The selection can be
done by un mount the coupling resisto(R13-17).
3.3.1 Programming header P1
P1 is the programming header fhe microchip controller. The pin order on the header P1 is
exactly the same as being used on the microchip tool chain, hence no special adapter is
needed.

Low impedance driver stage
3.4.1 Power concept
AS3911 has internal LDO that needs to be decoupled with capacitors of 2.2 microF and 10
nF. These pins are
AGD (analogue ground)
VSP_D (to supply the logic of AS3911)
VSP_A (to supply the analogue part of AS3911)
VSP_RF (to supply the driver stage of AS3911)
AS3911 contains internal level shifter that enables to connect to micro controller with
different VDD than AS3911. Pin 1 shall be connected to the same Voltage as the supply of
the micro controller.
GND as well as the supply line are being connected with a ferrite bead to reject the EMC
disturbance caused by the HF driver.
3.4.2 Antenna stage
The Antenna stage consists of a two stage Filter network and a matching. The two stage filter
shall reject higher harmonics of the 13,56 MHz carrier. Since inductors are non-ideal
components and the self-resonant frequency of the second coil is around 400 MHz, we
propose to use a two staged filter.
The first stage has a corner frequency above 200 MHz and will reduce the harmonics at the
higher frequencies.
The second stage has a corner frequency below 10 MHz and will reject frequencies in the
lower frequency band.
The matching network follows the filter and adapts the power from the driver to the antenna.
The tuning consists of external capacitors and chip internal switches. In case the switches are
open, the antenna Voltage is directly applied to the input pin of the chip.
Since the expected Voltage of the Antenna can be high, additional capacitors for voltage
limitation can be applied. The AS3911 can accept voltages up to 30V on its antenna tuning
pins.
The input pins are being connected by a capacitive divider. The voltage on that pins shall be
less than 3.3 Volt.

3.4.3 Capacitive wakeup
The capacitive wakeup consists of two pins that are each connected to an electrode and are
protected against ESD with a gas discharge element.
Since that pins can also be used as test outputs, an additional UFL connector is mounted.

Measurement of the antenna Parameters
The parameters of the antenna are done in following sequence
1: Start with the measurement of the serial Inductance and the serial resistor at a frequency
that is far off the self-resonance of the antenna. The chosen frequency is 1 MHz
@ 1 MHz we get:
LPC = 940 nH
RDC = 470 mOhm
2. Measurement of the self-resonance (The point in which the impedance will be reel, all
reactance’s will be zero.
=> fres ~ 59 MHz
RP,CAR = 5000 Ohm
Using the inductance value that are being measured at 1 MHz, the resonance capacitor can be
calculated with the formula

C =

= 7,74pF
(2*Π * fres)2 * LPC (2*Π *59MHz)2 *940nH
The value of the parallel resistor has to be converted from the self-resonance for the working
frequency. The main reason for that conversion is the skin effect of the antenna, thus a
correction factor can be given by:

All components of the antenna are now known and a replacement for the antenna circuit can
be drawn.

All components of the antenna are known and a model of the antenna can be given:
ꢀ
The values for the wanted resonance circuit are therefore:
RPC =6,02 kOhm
CPC= 7,74 pF
LPC= 940 nH

Determination of the Antenna resistor
The Antenna Q Factor can then be calculated as

Since the antenna works like a filter around it resonance frequency and the subcarrier is
848kHz apart from the carrier, the bandwidth and thus the Q factor need to be adapted. The
Bandwidth is defined based on the sub carrier frequency.
∆fres
848kHz
Q =

≈ 13
fres 13,56MHz
Since AS3911 can work due its excellent sensitivity in high Q environment, the Q factor can
be increased to values above 13 and for that board Q is set to 20.
And the parallel target resistor can then be calculate to
RT = Q*(ωL)
RT = 20*(2*13MHz*940nH) =1601Ohm
Taking the parasitic resistor RPC from the antenna into account, the physical assembled
resistor can be calculated to
RPC RT
6020*1601
RP =
=
= 2181Ω
RPC − RT 6020 −1601
The next available physical value is 2200 Ohm.
4.5
Matching of the driver
The matching is done from the driver resistor towards the antenna resistor.
The driver resistor can be assumed with 2 Ohm.
Since the antenna is being used differential, only half of the antenna shall be considered for
the matching.

Layout recommendations
AS3911 is a high integrated device that allow easy layout. There are only a few layout rules to
consider.
Use a solid ground plan under the chip and use thermal via under the chip to dissipate the heat
of and enable a low ohmic connection of the exposed pad to the ground plane.
Take care that the decoupling capacitors of the LDO are close to the chip. Use thick wires for
the decoupling tracks and place the 10nF capacitor closest to the chip.
Use a symmetric layout for the antenna stage
Do not cross the digital lines with the analogue lines.
Take care on the signals VSN_RF, VSP_RF and the two output pins RFO1 and RFO2. These
pins build up the internal driver stage. Tracks on those four pins shall be short and ground
connections must be solid.
