Automatic parity generation can be switched off using the MfRxReg register’s ParityDisable bit. 8.1 Digital interfaces 8.1.1 Automatic microcontroller interface detection The MFRC522 supports direct interfacing of hosts using SPI, I2C-bus or serial UART interfaces. The MFRC522 resets its interface and checks the current host interface type automatically after performing a power-on or hard reset. The MFRC522 identifies the host interface by sensing the logic levels on the control pins after the reset phase. This is done using a combination of fixed pin connections. Table 5 shows the different connection configurations. Table 5.

All rights reserved. 8 of 96 MFRC522 NXP Semiconductors Contactless reader IC 8.1.2 Serial Peripheral Interface A serial peripheral interface (SPI compatible) is supported to enable high-speed communication to the host. The interface can handle data speeds up to 10 Mbit/s. When communicating with a host, the MFRC522 acts as a slave, receiving data from the external host for register settings, sending and receiving data relevant for RF interface communication. An interface compatible with SPI enables high-speed serial communication between the MFRC522 and a microcontroller. The implemented interface is in accordance with the SPI standard. The timing specification is given in Section 14.1 on page 75. MFRC522 SCK SCK MOSI MOSI MISO MISO NSS NSS 001aak586 Fig 7. SPI connection to host The MFRC522 acts as a slave during SPI communication. The SPI clock signal SCK must be generated by the master. Data communication from the master to the slave uses the MOSI line. The MISO line is used to send data from the MFRC522 to the master. Data bytes on both MOSI and MISO lines are sent with the MSB first. Data on both MOSI and MISO lines must be stable on the rising edge of the clock and can be changed on the falling edge. Data is provided by the MFRC522 on the falling clock edge and is stable during the rising clock edge. 8.1.2.1 SPI read data Reading data using SPI requires the byte order shown in Table 6 to be used. It is possible to read out up to n-data bytes. The first byte sent defines both the mode and the address. Table 6.

It is possible to write up to n data bytes by only sending one address byte. The first send byte defines both the mode and the address byte. Table 7.

Remark: The MSB must be sent first. 8.1.2.3 SPI address byte The address byte must meet the following format. The MSB of the first byte defines the mode used. To read data from the MFRC522 the MSB is set to logic 1. To write data to the MFRC522 the MSB must be set to logic 0. Bits 6 to 1 define the address and the LSB is set to logic 0. Table 8.

The default transfer speed is 9.6 kBd. To change the transfer speed, the host controller must write a value for the new transfer speed to the SerialSpeedReg register. Bits BR_T0[2:0] and BR_T1[4:0] define the factors for setting the transfer speed in the SerialSpeedReg register. The BR_T0[2:0] and BR_T1[4:0] settings are described in Table 9. Examples of different transfer speeds and the relevant register settings are given in Table 10. Table 9.

The I2C-bus interface is implemented according to NXP Semiconductors’ I2C-bus interface specification, rev. 2.1, January 2000. The interface can only act in Slave mode. Therefore the MFRC522 does not implement clock generation or access arbitration. PULL-UP NETWORK PULL-UP NETWORK MFRC522 SDA SCL MICROCONTROLLER I2C CONFIGURATION WIRING EA ADR_[5:0] 001aak590 Fig 11. I2C-bus interface The MFRC522 can act either as a slave receiver or slave transmitter in Standard mode, Fast mode and High-speed mode. SDA is a bidirectional line connected to a positive supply voltage using a current source or a pull-up resistor. Both SDA and SCL lines are set HIGH when data is not transmitted. The MFRC522 has a 3-state output stage to perform the wired-AND function. Data on the I2C-bus can be transferred at data rates of up to 100 kBd in Standard mode, up to 400 kBd in Fast mode or up to 3.4 Mbit/s in High-speed mode. If the I2C-bus interface is selected, spike suppression is activated on lines SCL and SDA as defined in the I2C-bus interface specification. See Table 155 on page 76 for timing requirements.

All rights reserved. 15 of 96 MFRC522 NXP Semiconductors Contactless reader IC 8.1.4.1 Data validity Data on the SDA line must be stable during the HIGH clock period. The HIGH or LOW state of the data line must only change when the clock signal on SCL is LOW. SDA SCL data line stable; data valid change of data allowed mbc621 Fig 12. Bit transfer on the I2C-bus 8.1.4.2 START and STOP conditions To manage the data transfer on the I2C-bus, unique START (S) and STOP (P) conditions are defined. • A START condition is defined with a HIGH-to-LOW transition on the SDA line while SCL is HIGH. • A STOP condition is defined with a LOW-to-HIGH transition on the SDA line while SCL is HIGH. The I2C-bus master always generates the START and STOP conditions. The bus is busy after the START condition. The bus is free again a certain time after the STOP condition. The bus stays busy if a repeated START (Sr) is generated instead of a STOP condition. The START (S) and repeated START (Sr) conditions are functionally identical. Therefore, S is used as a generic term to represent both the START (S) and repeated START (Sr) conditions. SDA SDA SCL SCL S P START condition STOP condition mbc622 Fig 13. START and STOP conditions 8.1.4.3 Byte format Each byte must be followed by an acknowledge bit. Data is transferred with the MSB first; see Figure 16. The number of transmitted bytes during one data transfer is unrestricted but must meet the read/write cycle format.

All rights reserved. 16 of 96 MFRC522 NXP Semiconductors Contactless reader IC 8.1.4.4 Acknowledge An acknowledge must be sent at the end of one data byte. The acknowledge-related clock pulse is generated by the master. The transmitter of data, either master or slave, releases the SDA line (HIGH) during the acknowledge clock pulse. The receiver pulls down the SDA line during the acknowledge clock pulse so that it remains stable LOW during the HIGH period of this clock pulse. The master can then generate either a STOP (P) condition to stop the transfer or a repeated START (Sr) condition to start a new transfer. A master-receiver indicates the end of data to the slave-transmitter by not generating an acknowledge on the last byte that was clocked out by the slave. The slave-transmitter releases the data line to allow the master to generate a STOP (P) or repeated START (Sr) condition. data output by transmitter not acknowledge data output by receiver acknowledge SCL from master 1 2 8 9 S clock pulse for acknowledgement START condition mbc602 Fig 14.

Several address numbers are reserved. During device configuration, the designer must ensure that collisions with these reserved addresses cannot occur. Check the I2C-bus specification for a complete list of reserved addresses. The I2C-bus address specification is dependent on the definition of pin EA. Immediately after releasing pin NRSTPD or after a power-on reset, the device defines the I2C-bus address according to pin EA. If pin EA is set LOW, the upper 4 bits of the device bus address are reserved by NXP Semiconductors and set to 0101b for all MFRC522 devices. The remaining 3 bits (ADR_0, ADR_1, ADR_2) of the slave address can be freely configured by the customer to prevent collisions with other I2C-bus devices. If pin EA is set HIGH, ADR_0 to ADR_5 can be completely specified at the external pins according to Table 5 on page 8. ADR_6 is always set to logic 0. In both modes, the external address coding is latched immediately after releasing the reset condition. Further changes at the used pins are not taken into consideration. Depending on the external wiring, the I2C-bus address pins can be used for test signal outputs. MSB LSB bit 6 bit 5 bit 4 bit 3 bit 2 slave address bit 1 bit 0 R/W 001aak591 Fig 16.

In one frame all data bytes are written to the same register address. This enables fast FIFO buffer access. The Read/Write (R/W) bit is set to logic 0.

No data bytes are added • The Read/Write bit is 0 After the write access, read access can start. The host sends the device address of the MFRC522. In response, the MFRC522 sends the content of the read access register. In one frame all data bytes can be read from the same register address. This enables fast FIFO buffer access or register polling.

HS mode can only start after all of the following conditions (all of which are in F/S mode): 1. START condition (S) 2. 8-bit master code (00001XXXb) 3. Not-acknowledge bit (A) When HS mode starts, the active master sends a repeated START condition (Sr) followed by a 7-bit slave address with a R/W bit address and receives an acknowledge bit (A) from the selected MFRC522. Data transfer continues in HS mode after the next repeated START (Sr), only switching back to F/S mode after a STOP condition (P). To reduce the overhead of the master code, a master links a number of HS mode transfers, separated by repeated START conditions (Sr).

All rights reserved. 21 of 96 MFRC522 NXP Semiconductors Contactless reader IC 8.1.4.11 Switching between F/S mode and HS mode After reset and initialization, the MFRC522 is in Fast mode (which is in effect F/S mode as Fast mode is downward-compatible with Standard mode). The connected MFRC522 recognizes the “S 00001XXX A” sequence and switches its internal circuitry from the Fast mode setting to the HS mode setting. The following actions are taken: 1. Adapt the SDA and SCL input filters according to the spike suppression requirement in HS mode. 2. Adapt the slope control of the SDA output stages. It is possible for system configurations that do not have other I2C-bus devices involved in the communication to switch to HS mode permanently. This is implemented by setting Status2Reg register’s I2CForceHS bit to logic 1. In permanent HS mode, the master code is not required to be sent. This is not defined in the specification and must only be used when no other devices are connected on the bus. In addition, spikes on the I2C-bus lines must be avoided because of the reduced spike suppression. 8.1.4.12 MFRC522 at lower speed modes MFRC522 is fully downward-compatible and can be connected to an F/S mode I2C-bus system. The device stays in F/S mode and communicates at F/S mode speeds because a master code is not transmitted in this configuration.

An external circuit can be connected to the communication interface pins MFIN and MFOUT to modulate and demodulate the data. The contactless UART handles the protocol requirements for the communication protocols in cooperation with the host. Protocol handling generates bit and byte-oriented framing. In addition, it handles error detection such as parity and CRC, based on the various supported contactless communication protocols. Remark: The size and tuning of the antenna and the power supply voltage have an important impact on the achievable operating distance. 8.2.2 TX p-driver The signal on pins TX1 and TX2 is the 13.56 MHz energy carrier modulated by an envelope signal. It can be used to drive an antenna directly using a few passive components for matching and filtering; see Section 15 on page 78. The signal on pins TX1 and TX2 can be configured using the TxControlReg register; see Section 9.3.2.5 on page 48. The modulation index can be set by adjusting the impedance of the drivers. The impedance of the p-driver can be configured using registers CWGsPReg and ModGsPReg. The impedance of the n-driver can be configured using the GsNReg register. The modulation index also depends on the antenna design and tuning. The TxModeReg and TxSelReg registers control the data rate and framing during transmission and the antenna driver setting to support the different requirements at the different modes and transfer speeds.

The digital block comprises the state machines, encoder/decoder logic. The analog block comprises the modulator and antenna drivers, the receiver and amplifiers. It is possible for the interface between these two blocks to be configured so that the interfacing signals are routed to pins MFIN and MFOUT. This topology allows the analog block of the MFRC522 to be connected to the digital block of another device. The serial signal switch is controlled by the TxSelReg and RxSelReg registers.

Serial data switch for p-driver TX1 and TX2 8.2.4 MFIN and MFOUT interface support The MFRC522 is divided into a digital circuit block and an analog circuit block. The digital block contains state machines, encoder and decoder logic and so on. The analog block contains the modulator and antenna drivers, receiver and amplifiers. The interface between these two blocks can be configured so that the interfacing signals can be routed to pins MFIN and MFOUT; see Figure 21 on page 26. This configuration is implemented using TxSelReg register’s MFOutSel[3:0] and DriverSel[1:0] bits and RxSelReg register’s UARTSel[1:0] bits. This topology allows some parts of the analog block to be connected to the digital block of another device. Switch MFOutSel in the TxSelReg register can be used to measure MIFARE and ISO/IEC14443 A related signals. This is especially important during the design-in phase or for test purposes as it enables checking of the transmitted and received data. The most important use of pins MFIN and MFOUT is found in the active antenna concept. An external active antenna circuit can be connected to the MFRC522’s digital block. Switch MFOutSel must be configured so that the internal Miller encoded signal is sent to pin MFOUT (MFOutSel = 100b). UARTSel[1:0] must be configured to receive a Manchester signal with subcarrier from pin MFIN (UARTSel[1:0] = 01). It is possible to connect a passive antenna to pins TX1, TX2 and RX (using the appropriate filter and matching circuit) and an active antenna to pins MFOUT and MFIN at the same time. In this configuration, two RF circuits can be driven (one after another) by a single host processor.

This register is split into two 8-bit registers representing the higher and lower bytes. • The ModeReg register’s MSBFirst bit indicates that data will be loaded with the MSB first. Table 17. CRC coprocessor parameters Parameter Value CRC register length 16-bit CRC CRC algorithm algorithm according to ISO/IEC 14443 A and ITU-T CRC preset value 0000h, 6363h, A671h or FFFFh depending on the setting of the ModeReg register’s CRCPreset[1:0] bits 8.3 FIFO buffer An 8 × 64 bit FIFO buffer is used in the MFRC522. It buffers the input and output data stream between the host and the MFRC522’s internal state machine. This makes it possible to manage data streams up to 64 bytes long without the need to take timing constraints into account. 8.3.1 Accessing the FIFO buffer The FIFO buffer input and output data bus is connected to the FIFODataReg register. Writing to this register stores one byte in the FIFO buffer and increments the internal FIFO buffer write pointer. Reading from this register shows the FIFO buffer contents stored in the FIFO buffer read pointer and decrements the FIFO buffer read pointer. The distance between the write and read pointer can be obtained by reading the FIFOLevelReg register. When the microcontroller starts a command, the MFRC522 can, while the command is in progress, access the FIFO buffer according to that command. Only one FIFO buffer has been implemented which can be used for input and output. The microcontroller must ensure that there are not any unintentional FIFO buffer accesses. 8.3.2 Controlling the FIFO buffer The FIFO buffer pointers can be reset by setting FIFOLevelReg register’s FlushBuffer bit to logic 1. Consequently, the FIFOLevel[6:0] bits are all set to logic 0 and the ErrorReg register’s BufferOvfl bit is cleared. The bytes stored in the FIFO buffer are no longer accessible allowing the FIFO buffer to be filled with another 64 bytes. 8.3.3 FIFO buffer status information The host can get the following FIFO buffer status information: • Number of bytes stored in the FIFO buffer: FIFOLevelReg register’s FIFOLevel[6:0] • FIFO buffer almost full warning: Status1Reg register’s HiAlert bit MFRC522_34 Product data sheet PUBLIC All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers. Rev. 3.4 — 5 March 2010 112134 © NXP B.V. 2010. All rights reserved. 27 of 96 MFRC522 NXP Semiconductors Contactless reader IC • FIFO buffer almost empty warning: Status1Reg register’s LoAlert bit • FIFO buffer overflow warning: ErrorReg register’s BufferOvfl bit. The BufferOvfl bit can only be cleared by setting the FIFOLevelReg register’s FlushBuffer bit. The MFRC522 can generate an interrupt signal when: • ComIEnReg register’s LoAlertIEn bit is set to logic 1. It activates pin IRQ when Status1Reg register’s LoAlert bit changes to logic 1. • ComIEnReg register’s HiAlertIEn bit is set to logic 1. It activates pin IRQ when Status1Reg register’s HiAlert bit changes to logic 1. If the maximum number of WaterLevel bytes (as set in the WaterLevelReg register) or less are stored in the FIFO buffer, the HiAlert bit is set to logic 1. It is generated according to Equation 3: HiAlert = ( 64 – FIFOLength ) ≤ WaterLevel (3) If the number of WaterLevel bytes (as set in the WaterLevelReg register) or less are stored in the FIFO buffer, the LoAlert bit is set to logic 1. It is generated according to Equation 4: LoAlert = FIFOLength ≤ WaterLevel (4) 8.4 Interrupt request system The MFRC522 indicates certain events by setting the Status1Reg register’s IRq bit and, if activated, by pin IRQ. The signal on pin IRQ can be used to interrupt the host using its interrupt handling capabilities. This allows the implementation of efficient host software. 8.4.1 Interrupt sources overview Table 18 shows the available interrupt bits, the corresponding source and the condition for its activation. The ComIrqReg register’s TimerIRq interrupt bit indicates an interrupt set by the timer unit which is set when the timer decrements from 1 to 0. The ComIrqReg register’s TxIRq bit indicates that the transmitter has finished. If the state changes from sending data to transmitting the end of the frame pattern, the transmitter unit automatically sets the interrupt bit. The CRC coprocessor sets the DivIrqReg register’s CRCIRq bit after processing all the FIFO buffer data which is indicated by CRCReady bit = 1. The ComIrqReg register’s RxIRq bit indicates an interrupt when the end of the received data is detected. The ComIrqReg register’s IdleIRq bit is set if a command finishes and the Command[3:0] value in the CommandReg register changes to idle (see Table 149 on page 67). The ComIrqReg register’s HiAlertIRq bit is set to logic 1 when the Status1Reg register’s HiAlert bit is set to logic 1 which means that the FIFO buffer has reached the level indicated by the WaterLevel[5:0] bits. The ComIrqReg register’s LoAlertIRq bit is set to logic 1 when the Status1Reg register’s LoAlert bit is set to logic 1 which means that the FIFO buffer has reached the level indicated by the WaterLevel[5:0] bits.

The timer unit can be used in one of the following timer/counter configurations: • • • • • Timeout counter Watchdog counter Stop watch Programmable one shot Periodical trigger The timer unit can be used to measure the time interval between two events or to indicate that a specific event occurred after a specific time. The timer can be triggered by events explained in the paragraphs below. The timer does not influence any internal events, for example, a time-out during data reception does not automatically influence the reception process. Furthermore, several timer-related bits can be used to generate an interrupt. The timer has an input clock of 13.56 MHz derived from the 27.12 MHz quartz crystal oscillator. The timer consists of two stages: prescaler and counter. The prescaler (TPrescaler) is a 12-bit counter. The reload values (TReloadVal_Hi[7:0] and TReloadVal_Lo[7:0]) for TPrescaler can be set between 0 and 4095 in the TModeReg register’s TPrescaler_Hi[3:0] bits and TPrescalerReg register’s TPrescaler_Lo[7:0] bits. The reload value for the counter is defined by 16 bits between 0 and 65535 in the TReloadReg register. The current value of the timer is indicated in the TCounterValReg register. When the counter reaches 0, an interrupt is automatically generated, indicated by the ComIrqReg register’s TimerIRq bit setting. If enabled, this event can be indicated on pin IRQ. The TimerIRq bit can be set and reset by the host. Depending on the configuration, the timer will stop at 0 or restart with the value set in the TReloadReg register. The timer status is indicated by the Status1Reg register’s TRunning bit. MFRC522_34 Product data sheet PUBLIC All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers.

All rights reserved. 29 of 96 MFRC522 NXP Semiconductors Contactless reader IC The timer can be started manually using the ControlReg register’s TStartNow bit and stopped using the ControlReg register’s TStopNow bit. The timer can also be activated automatically to meet any dedicated protocol requirements by setting the TModeReg register’s TAuto bit to logic 1. The delay time of a timer stage is set by the reload value + 1. The total delay time (td) is calculated using Equation 5: ( TPrescaler × 2 + 1 ) × ( TReloadVal + 1 ) t d = --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------13.56 MHz (5) An example of calculating total delay time (td) is shown in Equation 6, where the TPrescaler value = 4095 and TReloadVal = 65535: ( 4095 × 2 + 1 ) × ( 65535 + 1 ) 39.59 s = ----------------------------------------------------------------------13.56 MHz (6) Example: To give a delay time of 25 μs requires 339 clock cycles to be counted and a TPrescaler value of 169. This configures the timer to count up to 65535 time-slots for every 25 μs period. MFRC522_34 Product data sheet PUBLIC All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers.

All rights reserved. 30 of 96 MFRC522 NXP Semiconductors Contactless reader IC 8.6 Power reduction modes 8.6.1 Hard power-down Hard power-down is enabled when pin NRSTPD is LOW. This turns off all internal current sinks including the oscillator. All digital input buffers are separated from the input pins and clamped internally (except pin NRSTPD). The output pins are frozen at either a HIGH or LOW level. 8.6.2 Soft power-down mode Soft Power-down mode is entered immediately after the CommandReg register’s PowerDown bit is set to logic 1. All internal current sinks are switched off, including the oscillator buffer. However, the digital input buffers are not separated from the input pins and keep their functionality. The digital output pins do not change their state. During soft power-down, all register values, the FIFO buffer content and the configuration keep their current contents. After setting the PowerDown bit to logic 0, it takes 1024 clocks until the Soft power-down mode is exited indicated by the PowerDown bit. Setting it to logic 0 does not immediately clear it. It is cleared automatically by the MFRC522 when Soft power-down mode is exited. Remark: If the internal oscillator is used, you must take into account that it is supplied by pin AVDD and it will take a certain time (tosc) until the oscillator is stable and the clock cycles can be detected by the internal logic. It is recommended for the serial UART, to first send the value 55h to the MFRC522. The oscillator must be stable for further access to the registers. To ensure this, perform a read access to address 0 until the MFRC522 answers to the last read command with the register content of address 0. This indicates that the MFRC522 is ready. 8.6.3 Transmitter power-down mode The Transmitter Power-down mode switches off the internal antenna drivers thereby, turning off the RF field. Transmitter power-down mode is entered by setting either the TxControlReg register’s Tx1RFEn bit or Tx2RFEn bit to logic 0. 8.7 Oscillator circuit MFRC522 OSCOUT OSCIN 27.12 MHz 001aak595 Fig 22.

All rights reserved. 31 of 96 MFRC522 NXP Semiconductors Contactless reader IC The clock applied to the MFRC522 provides a time basis for the synchronous system’s encoder and decoder. The stability of the clock frequency, therefore, is an important factor for correct operation. To obtain optimum performance, clock jitter must be reduced as much as possible. This is best achieved using the internal oscillator buffer with the recommended circuitry. If an external clock source is used, the clock signal must be applied to pin OSCIN. In this case, special care must be taken with the clock duty cycle and clock jitter and the clock quality must be verified. 8.8 Reset and oscillator start-up time 8.8.1 Reset timing requirements The reset signal is filtered by a hysteresis circuit and a spike filter before it enters the digital circuit. The spike filter rejects signals shorter than 10 ns. In order to perform a reset, the signal must be LOW for at least 100 ns. 8.8.2 Oscillator start-up time If the MFRC522 has been set to a Power-down mode or is powered by a VDDX supply, the start-up time for the MFRC522 depends on the oscillator used and is shown in Figure 23. The time (tstartup) is the start-up time of the crystal oscillator circuit. The crystal oscillator start-up time is defined by the crystal. The time (td) is the internal delay time of the MFRC522 when the clock signal is stable before the MFRC522 can be addressed. The delay time is calculated by: 1024 = 37.74 μs t d = ------------27 μs (7) The time (tosc) is the sum of td and tstartup. device activation oscillator clock stable clock ready tstartup td tosc t 001aak596 Fig 23.

MFRC522 registers 9.1 Register bit behavior Depending on the functionality of a register, the access conditions to the register can vary. In principle, bits with same behavior are grouped in common registers. The access conditions are described in Table 19. Table 19. Behavior of register bits and their designation Abbreviation Behavior MFRC522_34 Product data sheet PUBLIC Description R/W read and write These bits can be written and read by the microcontroller. Since they are used only for control purposes, their content is not influenced by internal state machines, for example the ComIEnReg register can be written and read by the microcontroller. It will also be read by internal state machines but never changed by them. D dynamic These bits can be written and read by the microcontroller. Nevertheless, they can also be written automatically by internal state machines, for example the CommandReg register changes its value automatically after the execution of the command. R read only These register bits hold values which are determined by internal states only, for example the CRCReady bit cannot be written externally but shows internal states. W write only Reading these register bits always returns zero. reserved - These registers are reserved for future use and must not be changed. In case of a write access, it is recommended to always write the value “0”. RFT - These register bits are reserved for future use or are for production tests and must not be changed.

MFRC522 command set 10.1 General description The MFRC522 operation is determined by a state machine capable of performing a set of commands. A command is executed by writing a command code (see Table 149) to the CommandReg register. Arguments and/or data necessary to process a command are exchanged via the FIFO buffer. 10.2 General behavior • Each command that needs a data bit stream (or data byte stream) as an input immediately processes any data in the FIFO buffer. An exception to this rule is the Transceive command. Using this command, transmission is started with the BitFramingReg register’s StartSend bit. • Each command that needs a certain number of arguments, starts processing only when it has received the correct number of arguments from the FIFO buffer. • The FIFO buffer is not automatically cleared when commands start. This makes it possible to write command arguments and/or the data bytes to the FIFO buffer and then start the command. • Each command can be interrupted by the host writing a new command code to the CommandReg register, for example, the Idle command. 10.3 MFRC522 command overview Table 149. Command overview MFRC522_34 Product data sheet PUBLIC Command Command Action code Idle 0000 no action, cancels current command execution Mem 0001 stores 25 bytes into the internal buffer Generate RandomID 0010 generates a 10-byte random ID number CalcCRC 0011 activates the CRC coprocessor or performs a self test Transmit 0100 transmits data from the FIFO buffer NoCmdChange 0111 no command change, can be used to modify the CommandReg register bits without affecting the command, for example, the PowerDown bit Receive 1000 activates the receiver circuits Transceive 1100 transmits data from FIFO buffer to antenna and automatically activates the receiver after transmission - 1101 reserved for future use MFAuthent 1110 performs the MIFARE standard authentication as a reader SoftReset 1111 resets the MFRC522 All information provided in this document is subject to legal disclaimers.

All rights reserved. 67 of 96 MFRC522 NXP Semiconductors Contactless reader IC 10.3.1 MFRC522 command descriptions 10.3.1.1 Idle Places the MFRC522 in Idle mode. The Idle command also terminates itself. 10.3.1.2 Mem Transfers 25 bytes from the FIFO buffer to the internal buffer. To read out the 25 bytes from the internal buffer the Mem command must be started with an empty FIFO buffer. In this case, the 25 bytes are transferred from the internal buffer to the FIFO. During a hard power-down (using pin NRSTPD), the 25 bytes in the internal buffer remain unchanged and are only lost if the power supply is removed from the MFRC522. This command automatically terminates when finished and the Idle command becomes active. 10.3.1.3 Generate RandomID This command generates a 10-byte random number which is initially stored in the internal buffer. This then overwrites the 10 bytes in the internal 25-byte buffer. This command automatically terminates when finished and the MFRC522 returns to Idle mode. 10.3.1.4 CalcCRC The FIFO buffer content is transferred to the CRC coprocessor and the CRC calculation is started. The calculation result is stored in the CRCResultReg register. The CRC calculation is not limited to a dedicated number of bytes. The calculation is not stopped when the FIFO buffer is empty during the data stream. The next byte written to the FIFO buffer is added to the calculation. The CRC preset value is controlled by the ModeReg register’s CRCPreset[1:0] bits. The value is loaded in to the CRC coprocessor when the command starts. This command must be terminated by writing a command to the CommandReg register, such as, the Idle command. If the AutoTestReg register’s SelfTest[3:0] bits are set correctly, the MFRC522 enters Self Test mode. Starting the CalcCRC command initiates a digital self test. The result of the self test is written to the FIFO buffer. 10.3.1.5 Transmit The FIFO buffer content is immediately transmitted after starting this command. Before transmitting the FIFO buffer content, all relevant registers must be set for data transmission. This command automatically terminates when the FIFO buffer is empty. It can be terminated by another command written to the CommandReg register. 10.3.1.6 NoCmdChange This command does not influence any running command in the CommandReg register. It can be used to manipulate any bit except the CommandReg register Command[3:0] bits, for example, the RcvOff bit or the PowerDown bit.

All rights reserved. 68 of 96 MFRC522 NXP Semiconductors Contactless reader IC 10.3.1.7 Receive The MFRC522 activates the receiver path and waits for a data stream to be received. The correct settings must be chosen before starting this command. This command automatically terminates when the data stream ends. This is indicated either by the end of frame pattern or by the length byte depending on the selected frame type and speed. Remark: If the RxModeReg register’s RxMultiple bit is set to logic 1, the Receive command will not automatically terminate. It must be terminated by starting another command in the CommandReg register. 10.3.1.8 Transceive This command continuously repeats the transmission of data from the FIFO buffer and the reception of data from the RF field. The first action is transmit and after transmission the command is changed to receive a data stream. Each transmit process must be started by setting the BitFramingReg register’s StartSend bit to logic 1. This command must be cleared by writing any command to the CommandReg register. Remark: If the RxModeReg register’s RxMultiple bit is set to logic 1, the Transceive command never leaves the receive state because this state cannot be cancelled automatically. 10.3.1.9 MFAuthent This command manages MIFARE authentication to enable a secure communication to any MIFARE Mini, MIFARE 1K and MIFARE 4K card. The following data is written to the FIFO buffer before the command can be activated: • • • • • • • • • • • • Authentication command code (60h, 61h) Block address Sector key byte 0 Sector key byte 1 Sector key byte 2 Sector key byte 3 Sector key byte 4 Sector key byte 5 Card serial number byte 0 Card serial number byte 1 Card serial number byte 2 Card serial number byte 3 In total 12 bytes are written to the FIFO. Remark: When the MFAuthent command is active all access to the FIFO buffer is blocked. However, if there is access to the FIFO buffer, the ErrorReg register’s WrErr bit is set.

All rights reserved. 69 of 96 MFRC522 NXP Semiconductors Contactless reader IC This command automatically terminates when the MIFARE card is authenticated and the Status2Reg register’s MFCrypto1On bit is set to logic 1. This command does not terminate automatically if the card does not answer, so the timer must be initialized to automatic mode. In this case, in addition to the IdleIRq bit, the TimerIRq bit can be used as the termination criteria. During authentication processing, the RxIRq bit and TxIRq bit are blocked. The Crypto1On bit is only valid after termination of the MFAuthent command, either after processing the protocol or writing Idle to the CommandReg register. If an error occurs during authentication, the ErrorReg register’s ProtocolErr bit is set to logic 1 and the Status2Reg register’s Crypto1On bit is set to logic 0. 10.3.1.10 SoftReset This command performs a reset of the device. The configuration data of the internal buffer remains unchanged. All registers are set to the reset values. This command automatically terminates when finished. Remark: The SerialSpeedReg register is reset and therefore the serial data rate is set to 9.6 kBd.
