13.56MHz RFID Reader/Writer Module With Built-in Antenna
RFID frequency identification is a non-contact object recognition technology, it can automaticlly recognize target and get relevant data through rf signal, so there are so many interactive projects which need to use RFID to achieve object recognition. Generally speaking, one basic kit of RFID general system mainly consists of three parts as below:
Tag: composed by coupling components and chip, every tag have only electronic coding, adhere to the target object identifier;
Reader: equipment used to read (sometimes can write) tag information, can be designed for handheld or stationary;
Antenna: transmit rf signal between the tag and reader.
At present there are so many RFID module, and there are difference from the interface of Arduino, we design these two version of RFID module which connect with Arduino through serial port, and both of these two version have exact same function and connection mode, but the antenna is different.

Reader/Writer Module Size
This version have integrated reader and antenna, integrately on one boards, and the detection distance can be as far as 6cm.
The working principle of RFID is actually not complex, once the tag into the working area of card reader, the reader can read the data of tag by magnetic field generated by the antenna.
According to the specific use of different scene, we can use different types of tags, different types of tags have different range.
Pin Defination
About the hardware connection, you can use the UART interface of sensor shield to connect this RFID mdule with Arduino easily.
