Is it possible to increase the distance between NFC Tag and NFC slot, if i do so with the help of cable then is there any power loss happen?

Heena

Hello, 

I am using the SDK 15.3.0 on nrf52832 DK evolution board, Segger Studio IDE.

Is there any issues with having the NFC tag extended a meter away from the PCB??

How that can be achievable, without power loss??

Kindly provide the solution.

Regards,

Heena Jadaun

    You mean having the NFC antenna coil "far away" from the nRF52 ?

    Yes, that will certainly have issues!

    The NFC coil is a tuned RF circuit - so you will have to redesign it to get the correct RF resonance. Are you a competent RF designer?

    Probably a better idea is to use an external NFC reader chip, and connect it via some suitable interface (eg, I2C, SPI, UART) to the nRF.

    Or move the nRF to where the NFC coil needs to be ... ?

    Thanks for your reply.

    I am not a competent RF designer, so it is not possible for my end to redesign the RF circuit.

    can you give me some reference of such NFC reader chips or links where it is connected with nrf52832?

    It will be great help..
