Dear All,

is there a possibility to implement another driver for other commercial reader/writer like the uTrust 3720 into the Software STSW-ST25PC001, or a way to implement it by myself with the STSW-ST25PC002?

Or where can I purchase the Feig controller?

Thank you in advance.

Hello,

it is difficult but possible to implement new drivers for commercial readers provided that the hardware has an associated firmware that makes it possible to send commands via USB (or Ethernet). Then you can implement the JNI (Java Native Interface) code that will connect the firmware API with the Java RFReader interface.

At the time this response is written, the ST25PC-NFC software does not yet have support for PC/SC readers.

The easiest way to proceed if you want to work on a NFC solution prototype is to get your hands on a cheap ST25R3911B discovery kit. For less than $50, you can have a supported piece of hardware that will help work on your software. You can find a link to buy the kit directly from the ST25R3911B web page.

For industrial grade solutions, products from our partner at FEIG Electronic can be purchased at a reseller, as FEIG does not sell directly. Supported readers include the CPR30 desktop reader and the LR1002 industrial reader. A web search for those products will lead you to resellers in your area.

Best Regards,

Damien
