Timeline of Development

PN532Killer project is a whole new project on the Tag emulator and reader on the AD15N chip.

Beginning in December 2023, our team initiated the PN532Killer project, developing both hardware and software aspects. By early 2024, we had introduced significant functionalities and system upgrades. By April 2024, we made additional performance improvements.
