Can we use PN7160 NFC Reader instead of PN532 Adafruit NFC Reader

[sagarnayakm]

Hello,

In my project, I want to use PN7160 NFC Reader instead of PN532 NFC Reader because in nRF SDK had a library for PN532 but the library is comfortable for PN7160 or not .??

Yes, i can go for PN532 also but they are not recommended for a new design by anybody. So Please let us know if it's comfortable or not.??

Thank You.

Hi

A timeout in the initialization to me makes it seem like you're not being able to establish contact with the NFC reader, are you sure the ST25 reader is powered correctly and is actually turned on?

From the image you've uploaded, it's impossible to say if you have connected all the wires correctly I'm afraid. 

Best regards,

Simon

Hello,

I went on the ST25 reader  schematic and these are the SPI pins i have used,

and still, I don't know what is the problem with this.

Thank  You.

What pins on the nRF52 do these equal to exactly? And have you read through the ST25's user guide to make sure you're powering and setting it up correctly?

Best regards,

Simon

Hello,

SCLK-25

MISO-24

MOSI-23

CS-22

IRQ-3

these are the pins that I used in nrf52832 and for powering up the device using the USB port only.

Please help me to resolve this.

Thank You.
