This RFID module is desgined based on MFRC522. It is a highly integrated reader/writer for contactless communication at 13.56MHz. It supports ISO 14443A/MIFARE mode and MIFARE Classic (e.g. MIFARE Standard) products. Contactless communication using MIFARE higher transfer speeds up to 848kbit/s in both directions.
We embeded an MCU on this module. Through the API, you could do writing and reading work. All the command is sent through UART. There is also a SPI interface on the board. This is the MFRC's SPI. You can access MFRC directly via this inteface.
Baud rate could be 2400bps ~ 115200bps
Default setting:
There are two kinds of command: Basic command and compact command. All the command are in Hex format. Please download manual for more information.
Connecting with Arduino is pretty easy. With Arduino Sensor Shield, just plug in and play.
