MFRC522 RC522 RFID Card Reader Writer Module

Mifare RC522 is the highly integrated RFID card reader that works on non-contact 13.56 Mhz communication is designed y NXP as low power consumption, low cost, and compact size read and write chip, is the best choice in the development of smart meters and portable hand-held devices. MF RC522 uses the advanced modulation system, fully integrated at 13.56 MHz with all kinds of positive non-contact communication protocols. Support 14443A compatible answer signal. DSP deal with ISO 14443A frames and error correction. Furthermore, it also supports rapid CRYPTO1 encryption to validate Mifare series products. MFRC522 supports Mifare series higher speed non-contact communication, duplex communication speed up to 424 kb/s. As a new family member in the 13.56 MHz RFID family. MF RC522 has many similarities to MF RC5200 and MF RC530 and also has more new features. This module can fit directly in handheld devices for mass production. The module uses the 3.3V power supply and can communicate directly with any CPU board by connecting through the SPI protocol, which ensures reliable work, good reading distance.
