MFRC-522 RFID

Description

RFID Reader Module with MFRC522 Chip – Sets Kit Key Features:

1. Efficient Power Consumption
Operating Current: The module operates efficiently with a current range of 13-26mA at a DC 3.3V power supply. This ensures the device runs smoothly without excessive power drain.
Idle Current: In idle mode, the current drops to 10-13mA, further conserving energy when the device is not actively reading or writing data.
Peak and Sleep Current: The module can handle peak currents of less than 30mA and has a sleep current of less than 80uA, making it highly energy-efficient and suitable for battery-powered applications.

2. Versatile Communication Interfaces:
The module supports multiple communication interfaces including SPI (with a data transfer rate of up to 10Mbit/s), IIC, and UART. This versatility allows it to be integrated seamlessly into a wide range of projects and devices.

3.Advanced MFRC522 Chip:
High Integration: The MFRC522 is a highly integrated chip designed for 13.56MHz contactless communication. It’s ideal for designing and manufacturing RF card terminals.
Protocol Support: It fully supports all types of 13.56MHz passive contactless communication methods and protocols, making it suitable for a variety of applications.
Security Features: The chip supports ISO14443A transponder signals and includes digital handling of ISO14443A framing and error detection. It also supports fast CRYPTO1 encryption algorithms, essential for secure transactions and data handling.

4. Onboard Antenna for Convenience:
The module comes with an onboard antenna, eliminating the need for an external antenna coil. This not only simplifies the design but also ensures a stable and reliable reader distance of up to 35mm when using MIFARE cards.

5. Broad Card Compatibility:
The module is compatible with various MIFARE card types including Mifare1 S50, Mifare1 S70, MIFARE Ultralight, Mifare Pro, and MIFARE DESFire. This broad compatibility ensures that it can be used in a wide range of RFID applications.

6. Durable and Reliable Design:
Compact Size: The module measures just 40mm x 60mm, making it compact enough to fit into various devices and applications.
Wide Operating Temperature Range: It can operate in temperatures ranging from -20°C to 80°C, and can be stored in temperatures from -40°C to 85°C. This makes it suitable for use in various environmental conditions.
Humidity Tolerance: The module can operate reliably in environments with relative humidity levels between 5% and 95%.

This RFID Reader Module with the MFRC522 chip is perfect for anyone looking to design or manufacture RF card terminals. Its advanced features, reliable performance, and broad compatibility make it an excellent choice for a variety of applications, from smart meters to portable handheld devices.
