Does anyone have ported NFC stack on MSP430F2370?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430F5529, MSP430F2370, TRF7970A

Hi, 

I have recently downloaded NFC stack from the TI website. This stack is mainly build to work on MSP430F5529.

I have evaluation board of TRF7970A which consist MSP430F2370. Cant I use this board to communicate with Smartphone over NFC.

  • Parag -
    For sure the -F2370 + TRF7970A can be made to talk to handset (we have examples for that, for demo purposes) - but - the issue is here that we are providing the NFC firmware (on the -F55xx platform) which is written to pass certification testing (which includes both positive and negative testing) and be inter-operable with existing devices, which may have different variations of stacks in them and not be certified themselves (going all the way back to Gingerbread), which places a burden on the Flash and RAM present in a given MCU.

    that said - if you can enlighten us as to the mode(s) you want - we can see what can be done here for smaller MCUs to help you meet your end goal.
  • Dear Josh,

    I want P2P connection between Reader and phone. When i was developing RFID reader i have choose TRF7970 deliberately to make the system NFC compatible. Now my production is already done and all the cards having MSP430F2370. Hence i wanted to implement the stack on same cards.

  • Hello Parag,

    Please see the code below for an example of P2P code for the MSP430F2370. The code supports both initiator and target mode.

    NFC P2P Nov 8.zip

    The zip file has a P2P NDEF Commands Docklight script to send NDEF to the handsets.

    There will be an updated version of the standalone NFC code including Reader/Writer functionality released this month. The latest version of that code which has been released is the Card Emulation example, which supports both Card Emulation and Peer to Peer.(www.ti.com/lit/an/sloa208/sloa208.pdf ).

    Best regards,
