Abstract
A contactless integrated circuit is provided that includes a RFID communication interface, a UHF communication interface, a data processing unit, an interface multiplexer, a communication mode detection circuit, a first modulation and demodulation circuit, a second modulation and demodulation circuit, and a multiplexer demultiplexer circuit. The interface multiplexer couples the data processing unit to the RFID or UHF communication interfaces. The multiplexer demultiplexer circuits are driven by mode signals delivered by the communication mode detection circuit, to link the data processing unit to one of the two modulation and demodulation circuits.
