NFC Module for Arduino

 

Introduction

Your credit cards: gone. Bus pass and train tickets: vanished.Welcome to Near Field

Communications (NFC), a contactless, Wi-Fi-lite style tech that could already be in your smartphone,

and could soon be a regular feature of your commute.

Near Field Communications(NFC) is a set of short-range wireless technologies, typically requiring a

distance of 10cm or less, for two devices such as smartphones or the similar things very close to

each other to establish communication. Communication is also possible between a NFC device and

unpowered NFC chips such as tags, stickers, key fobs and cards which do not require batteries.

The NFC Module for Arduino is designed to extend this powerful feature for your project or

application based on Arduino.It integrates a PN532 NFC controller from Philips.The driver interface

for this product is UART interface of the microcontroller. So it's possible for you to test it via a USB to

UART converter directly. On the other hand, for the applications with microcontroller, the module

provides an event for your processor when detects the NFC tags, stickers, key fobs, or cards via

high speed serial uart.
