Description:

NFC is a popular technology in recent years. We often heard this work while smart phone company such as Samsung or HTC introduces their latest high-end phones. Almost all the high-end phone in the market support NFC.

Near field communication (NFC) is a set of standards for smart phones and similar devices to establish radio communication with each other by touching them together or bringing them into close proximityusually no more than a few centimeters.

For electronics geekswe also want to use NFC technology to make our own things. So we build this NFC RFID module. This module is built around NXP PN532. NXP PN532 is very popular in NFC area. And the company offers much technology document to help developers. We developed this module based on the official document. And to make things easierwe also build library for this module.

We almost break out all the IO pins of NXP532 on this module. Users could easily connect and play. With our Ardui-no Sensor Shieldit is very easy to plug and play. Howeverif users want to use other interface such as UART or SPIthis module also makes it easy to connect those pins.

Features:

• Small dimension and easy to embed into your project
• Support I2CSPI and HSU (High Speed UART)easy to change between those modes
• Support RFID reading and writingP2P communication with peersNFC with Android phone
• RFID reader/writer supports:
