RFID Reader/Writer Module for Arduino (D40)
RFID Reader Writer Module for Arduino – Easy RFID Access for DIY ProjectsSimple RFID Access with the Arduino RFID Reader Writer Module
Upgrade your Arduino projects with effortless RFID capability! This RFID reader writer module lets you easily add contactless card reading and writing to your DIY electronics. Whether you're making a basic security system, attendance tracker, or fun interactive gadgets, this Arduino-compatible RFID module is made for beginners and makers alike.
How the RFID Reader Writer Module Works
This RFID module uses the popular NXP MFRC522 chip and is built to work with all 13.56MHz MIFARE (ISO14443) RFID cards. It can both read and write data, giving you flexibility for your project needs. Common uses include reading access badges or storing custom data on RFID tags.
Easy Arduino RFID Module Setup
The RFID reader writer module comes with an etched copper antenna for strong signal reception. All connections are broken out to a breadboard-friendly 8-pin header, perfect for habitrail wires and rapid prototyping. It is set up for SPI communication, which is natively supported by Arduino boards and Arduino libraries, making coding fast and easy. Experimental users can attempt I2C or UART setup by modifying the board (not officially supported).
