The PN532 NFC RFID Reader/Writer Module V3 is a 13.56MHz high-frequency NFC module that reads and writes Mifare, NTAG, and NFC Forum-compatible cards and tags — unlike the 125kHz EM-18 reader which only reads a fixed card ID from EM4100 format cards, the PN532 module can read data stored on a tag, write new data to a writable NFC tag, and communicate with NFC-enabled smartphones held near the module. This pn532 nfc rfid module v3 kits operates at 13.56MHz, the same frequency used by Mifare cards, NFC stickers, NFC-enabled phones, and metro cards in India, making it compatible with the widest range of modern NFC cards and devices.
The 13.56 mhz rfid reader arduino’s three interface options — I2C, SPI, and High-Speed UART (HSU) — allow it to connect to virtually any microcontroller platform including Arduino, ESP32, Raspberry Pi, and STM32, with the interface selected by onboard switches on the V3 board. The rfid read write module operates from 3.3V to 5V, covering both 5V Arduino and 3.3V ESP32/Raspberry Pi systems without a level shifter on the I2C and UART interfaces.
The pn532 nfc reader module’s 5 to 7cm communication range is shorter than the EM-18’s 10cm range, which suits applications where intentional close contact between the card or phone and the reader is required. Available from StemVolt, offering quality electronics module. This pn532 nfc rfid module v3 is ideal for Arduino ESP32 NFC tag read-write access control and card emulation project builds in India.
