EK-TM4C129EXL: - experiments with RFID read...

Part Number: EK-TM4C129EXL
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: RF430CL330H, DLP-7970ABP,

Hello All, 

Am beginning an exploration of the TI foodchain - the controller board above seems on point for much of what we need...

But would like to select a booster pack which will help us evaluate an RFID tag reader design. For the moment, we're using Mifare Classics, but will likely move to DESFire, etc.

Which booster/other card would you recommend?

  • Hi,
    Have you checked out the Boosterpack webpage at www.ti.com/.../select.page
  • Charles - Of course I have... In fact, we've purchased both the RF430CL330H v2.0 and the DLP-7970ABP v4.7

    Would love to see some very simple example of reading one of our Mifare Classic keys with either of those, plugged into the EK-TM4C129EXL - Remember, am a noob to the whole TM4C129 picture.

    Coming from the 'uino world, and clearly see the value in the robust, very capable TI Product lines. But the learning curve is pretty steep...

    Meanwhile, am experimenting with interfacing the MFRC-522 using an SPI interface to the same board. Have begun digging through the spiloopback example as a template; again, any solid guidance is greatly appreciated.
