Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of near field communication (NFC) technology, and more particularly to an electronic device, a control device and method for NFC automatic antenna tuning. Background Technology

[0002] In NFC applications, external environmental factors (such as the proximity of a metal object) or changes in load impedance can cause the NFC antenna resonant frequency to shift. This will result in antenna mismatch, significantly reducing power transfer efficiency and potentially leading to communication interruption. Current mainstream NFC automatic antenna tuning solutions use an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) to control a voltage-controlled capacitor (VRC). The disadvantages of this approach are: the high cost of a single VRC and the limited range of capacitance variation for a single capacitor. To expand the tuning range, multiple VRCs need to be connected in parallel, further increasing system cost. Summary of the Invention
