5. USER MANUAL
The NTAG I²C plus Explorer Kit is developed to demonstrate the unique properties of the
NTAG I²C tag chip.
The NTAG I²C plus Explorer Kit consists from two boards: Connected Tags Explorer Board
and NTAG I²C plus Antenna board. The Connected Tags Explorer Board contains an NXP
microcontroller (LPC11U24 Cortex-M0), three LEDs (orange, blue and green), three buttons
as well as an temperature sensor (PCT 2075), LCD display. The NTAG I²C plus Antenna
board contains NTAG I2C intergated circuit and pcb wired antenna. Connection between
these two boards is via I2C serial link.
The Android application, called NTAG I2C Demo, can be found and freely downloaded from
the Google Play Store. The Android application is intended to operate on devices running
Android version 4.0 and beyond. The application has been optimized for a correct visioning
of the graphical elements in smartphones featuring different resolutions.
How to test functionality of NTAG I²C tag ic with android application is written in detail in
document: NTAG I2C Explorer Board Programming and Testing.pdf.
CAUTION
The NTAG I²C plus Explorer Kit contains components that can be potentially damaged by
electrostatic discharge. Always store and transport the NTAG I²C plus Explorer Kit in the
supplied ESD bag when not in use. Always handle the NTAG I²C plus Explorer Kit in an ESD
controlled environment.
