Description-en: Near Field Communication (NFC) examples for PN53x chips only
libnfc is a library for Near Field Communication. It abstracts the
low-level details of communicating with the devices away behind an
easy-to-use high-level API.
It supports most hardware based on the NXP PN531, PN532 or PN533
controller chips.
.
Some PN53x-only examples are provided with libnfc for debugging
and/or educational purposes (pn53x-sam, pn53x-tamashell, etc.).
