ST25DV discovery not working with ST25PC software

[Anthony Rabine]

Hello,

I have bought an ST25DV Discovery kit but it cannot be used with the ST25PC software, it says that the IC does not support *** feature.

Hint: when I read the UUID, I have Hitashi as manufacturer (byte 2 is 0x03 instead of 0x02 as indicated in the datasheet).

   [DEBUG] 25

   [DEBUG] E0

Do you know what's going on?

Hi Anthony,

could you please say if you read the same UID from another application (Phone app for example) ?

Thank you,

Damien

Yes absolutely, I can read the same with the NXP RFID tool on Android (and it also says that it comes from Hitachi). Looks like the ST25DV is not an ST design :)

​Dear Anthony,

Yes this value of IC manufacturer code is not correct. 

Is it possible to tell us the origin of this ST25DV discovery board ? Where and when did you acquire it ?

This would help to understand what's going one.

Thank you and best regards.

Hi,

Do you have any clue on that point?

​Hello Anthony,

I have contacted you by private message on this topic 2 months ago, proposing you that you send back to ST the defective part for analysis. Did you see this message and did you sent anything ?

Best regards.
