Whadda UK WPI405 RFID Read Write Module for Arduino with Card & Fob

Designed for seamless integration into Arduino projects, the Whadda UK WPI405 is a compact and efficient RFID read and write module. It allows you to interact with RFID cards and fobs, enabling a wide range of applications from access control to inventory management. Its compact dimensions make it ideal for space-constrained projects and embedded systems.

Operating at a low 3.3V DC, the module is energy-efficient with a working current of just 13mA to 26mA and a peak of 30mA. This makes it perfect for battery-powered or portable Arduino setups. The module utilises the common 13.56MHz frequency, ensuring compatibility with a vast array of standard RFID cards and tags.

Communication with your Arduino board is handled via the SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) protocol, offering a reliable and fast data connection with a maximum speed of 10Mbit/s. The module is powered by the popular MFRC522 controller chip, known for its reliability and extensive library support within the Arduino community, which simplifies programming and integration.

The package includes the RFID module itself, along with a sample card and fob, providing you with everything needed to start testing and developing your RFID-based applications immediately. Its robust design and clear specifications make it a dependable choice for hobbyists, educators, and prototyping professionals looking to add RFID functionality to their electronic creations.
