Connecting MFRC522 to Arduino Leonardo #541

Closed YasenTU closed 3 years ago

YasenTU commented 3 years ago

Hello, I am using an Arduino for the first time and have hit a brick wall. I have my RFID RC522, I got jumpers and an Arduino Leonardo. I looked up how to connect it and immediately get stumped. It shows putting in pins where there is no pin hole! Instead, I have other pins sticking out of there and I have no idea how to connect something that is sticking out with another thing that is sticking out! I tried wtih the Uno scheme and surprise, surprise I got a Communication failure, is the MFRC522 properly connected? ... I am on my last nerve and about to throw it all away. It is to apply for a club and I feel like they deliberately gave me the wrong stuff.
