Overview

 wiegand-converter-development-kit
The Wiegand interface is a de facto standard commonly used to connect a card reader or keypad to an electronic entry system. Wiegand interface has the ability to transmit signal over long distance with a simple 3 wires connection. This kit comes with open source schematic, PCB and C source code. It is all ready to go and easy to be modified for specific usage.
