Problems solved by technology

Typical traditional analog limiters use large on-chip capacitors for slow response, reducing ASK modulation distortion
However, this scheme may cause reliability risks due to slow response, for example, NFC devices may be damaged due to slow response, and when the field strength changes rapidly, the processing time may be extended
Furthermore, traditional analog limiters can only work in active / power-up mode, and cannot provide protection in power-down mode

Abstract

The invention provides a method and device for Radio Frequency (RF) limiting. The device for RF limiting comprises: an Analog Limiter configured to limit a voltage of a RF input to a predetermined safe range during power-off or power-up until a disable control signal is received from the Digital Controller, a Sensing Circuit configured to sense a plurality of shunting currents provided by the Analog Limiter in sequence to determine a value of each bit of a preset current sensing code and sense the limiting voltage, a Digital Controller configured to control the Digital Limiter to perform RF limiting function based on the value of each bit of the preset current sensing code, and control the Analog Limiter to stop limiting the voltage of the RF input if the limiting voltage is within a predetermined acceptable voltage range.

Description

field of invention [0001] The present invention relates to radio frequency (radio frequency, RF) voltage limiting, in particular to a method and device for limiting radio frequency voltage at a near-field communication front end. Background technique [0002] Near-Field Communication (Near-Field Communication, NFC) or Radio Frequency Identification (Radio Frequency Identification, RFID) system is a short-range communication technology with a typical communication distance of 4 cm. Unlike far-field communication systems that use electromagnetic transmission, NFC uses magnetic field coupling for data exchange. [0003] In the large dynamic range of the magnetic field, that is, 0.15A / m to 12A / m, the front end of the NFC device is in the voltage range of less than 1V to tens of volts, and there is no need for RF voltage limitation. For reliability and proper operation, the RF limiter needs to limit the RF input voltage to the NFC device to below 3.6V, which is within the reliab...
