Overview
This NFC/RFID controller shield is based on the PN532 chip and can be used for field communication close to
13.56 MHz. This shield comes with an on-board antenna. It is compatible with SPI, IIC, UART interface to
communicate and needs to be stacked directly onto the VMA100 UNO control board.
