Hi there! I have to develop a NFC system with Beagle Board running
Android. Have you some suggestion about the compatible hardware (i.e.
usb dongle) can I use on this board to add the NFC module?
Thanks in advance

Hi Mik,

Your problem description pretty much describes what I do at work.

All NFC-modules out there support either RS232, I�C or SPI. All these
interfaces are available under Android native code, so no problem from
the connectivity side. You may need a level-shifter to translate the
1.8V to the voltage the modules understand, but that's easy to do.

Thank you so much for your reply! So I can use indifferently one of
all the released interfaces, right? What adapter do you exactly use
for this stuff? I found out this usb dongle by SCM

so it should works fine with beagle board + android, isn't it?
Thanks once again
