ST25R3916 read blocks

Hi,

About rfalST25xVPollerFastReadMultipleBlocks and rfalNfcvPollerReadMultipleBlocks。

I use st25r3916 to read NFCV tag.The farthest reading distance of my reader can reach 70mm.When I use the command RFALNFCVPoller Read Multipleblocks, I can successfully read data between 0-70mm, but when I use RFAL ST25XVPoller FastTreadmill Blocks, when the amount is between 55 mm and 70 mm, I will fail to read, and the returned error codes are mainly 04, 09 and 21. There is no problem with tag. I can read it with other competing products in this position.

How can I determine what the problem is, the software configuration problem? Or is there not enough energy after the RF field is far away?Do you need any other configuration to use fast reading?

I hope you can help me answer it. Thank you.

Hi,

do you use an ST board such as X-NUCLEO-NFC06A1,  X-NUCLEO-NFC08A1, ST25R3916-DISCO or STEVAL-25R3916B or your own custom board?

Do you use the ST25R3916 or the ST25R3916B?

Hi.

I use my own custom board.The IC is ST25R3916.The matching circuit is vertically close to the antenna. When I keep the antenna away from the matching circuit, there will be fewer errors.The circled part is the matching circuit.

Hi,

on our demos I don't experience reduced read range of the fast commands.

It sounds like you have a noise floor which affects the sensitivity. When using normal speed (26kbps) one reporting period is twice as long as for fast commands and I suspect that the longer duration will filter most of your noise floor.

I would start looking at receiver signals on CSI/CSO or TAD1/2 using tana modes to assess the amount of noise there and see which changes on your board help to reduce it.
