where do I begin?

Hi all, I'd like to connect an RFID reader like this:

to a wireless transceiver / microcontroller like this:

and transmit the RFID number (and a few other odds & ends) to an identical wireless transceiver / microcontroller for further processing. Problem is, I majored in computer science, so I can program the microcontroller, but I haven't the faintest idea how to physically connect the two chips. What section of the library do I look in? Can anyone recommend a certain book and / or author? Or should I give up and find someone who knows what they're doing?

Thanks, John

Sorry John,

You are correct, but don't giveup, just find someone who can do this for you.

It will cost you money to do it yourself, over and over again till you figure it out.

Or just pay someone up front and it will be done much sooner.

As a computer science major, you can write a spec that can be read by a technical person.

If your goal is a product, this spec could be a business plan.

good luck

The NFC chip has a SPI interface and so has the Microcontroller you picked. Look up SPI, it's a very simple serial interface.

You might want to consider buying the EVM for this chip though. It comes with a software development kit and can be connected to a PC.

What you want to do is also known under the name "NFC peer-to-peer communication".

Kind regards,

Iwo
