Abstract
A contactless communication device includes a near field communication (NFC) module for generating an electromagnetic carrier signal and modulating the carrier signal according to data to be transmitted, and an antenna coupled to and driven by said NFC module with the modulated carrier signal. The device includes an RF front end coupled between said NFC module and said antenna and further includes a detection module coupled to said NFC module for detecting an end of a PauseA of an incoming RF signal by monitoring an amplitude of a digital output signal derived from the incoming RF signal. The detection module detects the PauseA in said digital output signal by comparing the amplitude of said output digital signal to a first level. The detection module further detects the end of the PauseA in said digital output signal by comparing the amplitude of said digital output signal to a second level.
