How can Rpi read a PN532 NFC Module?

Question

I have a pi zero v1.3:

PI – pn532

5v to 5v
gnd to gnd
BCM10 to MOSI
BCM9 to MISO
BCM11 to SCK
BCM5 to SS

I think the issue is BCM5 to SS? I believe this should be CE0 or CE1?

I have closed both SEL0 and SEL1. The only other thing is instead of using the DI/O 1-6 corresponding to the “MISO/MOSI/ETC”, I plugged the wire directly into the hole for MISO/MOSI/ETC.

Any help would be awesome!!

Thank You,

I’ll have to find it.Is there another it should connect to? — Denis, 2 days ago
You might like to show us a photo of your module, similar to the photos in these NFC questions: (1) stackoverflow.com/questions/60819793/…, (2) raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/109773/…. Cheers. — tlfong01, 2 days ago
I googled the tutorial for your module and found it is for I2C. (3) learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-pn532-rfid-nfc/shield-wiring. Actually your module can do I2C, SPI, and UART. My answer in Ref 1 above is for PN532 in I2C mode, and I successfully followed the libnfc tutorial to setup the mdules OK. I can show it in SPI mode if you prefer to do SPI. BTW, the tutorial in your mdoules is for Arduino, you need to find other NFC tutorials for Rpi, such as libnfc for PN532 or simpleMFRC522 etc. — tlfong01, 2 days ago
Hey thank you for all of this!! I checked the spi an that was good. Here is what I posted in the forum. I looked it up and matched the arduino connections to the shield and I have rewired up the nfc pn532. I will post a new photo tonight but it is still not workin 😦 forums.adafruit.com/viewtopic.php?f=60&t=164398 — Denis, yesterday
