I designed a PCB that integrates an ESP32 and an MFRC522 RFID module. However, the ESP32 was initially unable to communicate with the MFRC522 until I reduced the SPI communication speed to 200 kHz. Even then, the reader was still unable to detect RFID tags.
Additionally, I need the MFRC522 to support three external antennas via IPEX connectors.
I would appreciate guidance on improving my design to ensure stable communication between the ESP32 and MFRC522, and to properly support external antennas.
please see my pcb design
Hello wael_fakher
We're sorry, but this section of the community is focused on other types of sensors.
We can’t provide help for that family in this section. Please check the next community.
