| Jul 15, 2014 at 18:34 | comment | added | PhillyNJ | @zharvey From what it looks like, you connect the NFC/RFID (UART, TX/RX, Vc & Gnd) to the RPi GPIO pins (learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-nfc-rfid-on-raspberry-pi/…). It looks like all the info is there that you need to know. I would suggest picking it up from Adafruit. I have purchased a lot of items from Adafruit and their forum has engineers to answer your questions | |
| Jul 15, 2014 at 18:23 | comment | added | zharvey | Thanks @Phil Vallone (+1) - a few quick followup questions; as after reading the product page, I'm a bit confused. (1) How do I connect the NFC chip to the RPi: UART, FTDI, SPI, other? (2) If I wanted to write software that controlled when the NFC chip scans for tags, and how to handle responses when tags are scanned, do I deploy that software on RPi or the NFC chip itself? I guess with #2, I'm asking where the RFID middleware lives. Thanks again! | |
