Summary of SL030 recognizes Mifare and NFC too
The SL030 is a 13.56 MHz RFID module using the I2C interface to support protocols like MIFARE and NFC NTAG203. It features a built-in antenna, automatic tag detection, and a direct output pin for presence indication. Despite operating on 3V power, its outputs are 5V tolerant, ensuring compatibility with 5V logic systems. The module allows four configurable I2C addresses via jumpers and communicates through standard I2C command sequences with status feedback.
Parts used in the SL030 Project:
- SL030 RFID Module
- I2C Interface
- Built-in Antenna
- OUT Pin (Direct Output)
- Jumper JP1
- Jumper JP2
- Host Microcontroller
SL030 module communicates through favorite I2C interface and supports a wide scale of secure RFID technologies on the frequency of 13.56 MHz.
RFID modules Stronglink provide an excellent quality for an unbeatable price, that´s why from now you can find in our store another member of readers/ writers SL0xx module SL030. In many ways is the SL030 similar to other readers of the SL0xx family (especially SL031), which were introduced to you in the article „Stronglink modules will provide you a highly secure RFID”.
SL 030 supports the most of known RFID protocols on the frequency of 13.56 MHz like MIFARE 1k, MIFARE 4k, MIFARE Ultralight as well as NFC NTAG203. Built-in antenna and automatic detection of tags significantly simplify usage of the module. Also positive is the fact, that despite a 3V power supply, the outputs are 5V tolerant, thus combination with a 5V logic should be trouble free. SL030 contain besides an I2C communication interface also a direct output (OUT pin) indicating presence of RFID tag in a reach. SL030 can be set up to 4 different I2C addresses (1010000-1010011) by means jumpers JP1 and JP2. The communication itself runs in a standard form usual for an I2C bus. Commands (from a Host microcontroller of your application) are sent in a form of „Start+Address+Data_Length+Command+Data+Stop“. Overview of available commands is displayed in a Table no. 3. Result of operation is sent back from SL030 through I2C in a form of Command+Status+Data. Byte „Status“ indicates result of operation (Success/Fail,…) – table no. 4. Overview of possible statuses is summarized in section 4-3.
