Reader Writer Integration with Web Application

Mukundan — Sun, 04 Feb 2024 15:20:55 GMT

Hello Folks,

I am building a web application platform where I am in need of an NFC Writer/Reader device to be integrated with our software. Basically without using an external software we should be able to read/Write data to an NFC card through a writer reader device connected to our computer.

I have explored a few option and finally think PN7642 is the one I think a good fit. However I have few doubts regarding the following things.

1. Is PN7642 is a good fit for the requirement I mentioned above

2.Where can I buy one device so that I can check the integration feasibility with my app. Saw the development kit here https://www.nxp.com/products/rfid-nfc/nfc-hf/nfc-readers/development-kit-for-pn7642-secure-compact-nfc-controller-with-programmable-memory-and-crypto-acceleration:OM27642

Is it available preprogrammed?. Like can I plugin to my computer and use it out of the box or do I need to flash any firmware? If so where can I get the firmware and what are the steps to flash it.

is this the right doc I should follow https://www.nxp.com/docs/en/application-note/AN13134.pdf

This doc says about installing the MCUEpress IDE to do so. Not sure if this is the way I should proceed.

4. Is there a SDK available I can download from and add it to my java application. I found a few option in the following link but not sure if it can be directly used. Bit confused seeing the documentation.

https://www.mifare.net/en/products/tools/taplinx/

Is there a step by step doc describer on how to integrate the web sdk (TapLinx Java SDK) with a spring boot app and what methods to be called to read and write data.

Any help on this matter is greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Vineeth

Hello,

Hope you are doing well. Yes, the PN7642 is a good choice, as it is a Single-Chip Solution with High-Performance NFC Reader, Customizable MCU and Security Toolbox.

If you are interested in testing the Reader, the best option is to use our Development Kit for PN7642.

The PN76 family evaluation board quick start guide can help you with the PN7642 evaluation board, with information related the Hardware and Software of the board.

For the Software side, please refer to TapLinx | MIFARE. Taplinx is an open Java API is designed to ease the development of NFC based applications for Android and desktop.
