ABSTRACT
An RFID system consists of three components, an antenna and transceiver and a transponder
known as tag. The antenna uses radio frequency waves to transmit a signal that activates the
transponder. When activated, the tag transmits data back to the antenna. This project will used ID
card as RFID tag. The identification number on the card will indicate the information of user.
Each ID number has pre assigned in the database. The data in this context consists of the name,
department, and the ID number.
This method is more effective to prevent problem in process getting attendance manually. In this
project data is transfer by using Bluetooth from transmitter to receiver. The idea includes a V
drive module capable of receiving data from PIC18F46K22.
The V Drive module provides an easy solution for adding a USB Flash disk interface to an
existing product. In the v drive we connect the pen drive in which data is stored transmitted from
the RFID module in the form of excel sheet.

1.1 INTRODUCTION
An RFID system consists of three components, an antenna and transceiver and a transponder or
known as tag. The antenna uses radio frequency waves to transmit a signal that activates the
transponder. When activated, the tag transmits data back to the antenna. This project will used ID
card as RFID tag. The identification number on the card will indicate the information of user.
Each ID number has pre assigned in the database. The data in this context consists of the name,
department, and the ID number.
This method is more effective to prevent problem in process getting attendance manually. In this
project data is transfer by using Bluetooth from transmitter to receiver. The idea includes a V
drive module capable of receiving data from PIC18F46K22.
The V Drive module provides an easy solution for adding a USB Flash disk interface to an
existing product. Only four signal lines plus 5V supply and ground are required to be connected.
Using the Vinculum VDAP firmware the VNC1Ls I/O interface can be selected between the
serial UART or SPI using the on-board jumper pins.Now in the v drive we connect the pen drive
in which data is stored transmitted from the RFID module in the form of excel sheet.

LITERATURE REVIEW

2.1 Introduction
In the process of system development, literature reviews conducted to understand the theory,
methods and technologies associated with systems that have been developed. Background
research on the organization and comparative studies of existing systems is also done to more
understand the system requirements before the system was developed. RFID based systematic
students attendance management system that has been developed was using RFID technology.
Through this chapter, the technology that will be used will be discussed briefly.

2.2 Radio frequency identification (RFID)

RFID stands for Radio Frequency Identification, which is a wireless communication technology that
is used to uniquely identify tagged objects or people. RFID systems have been widely used in many
application areas, such as inventory control, product tracking through manufacturing and assembly,
parking lot access and control, container or pallet tracking, ID badges and access control, equipment
or personnel tracking in hospitals, etc. RFID systems use radio waves to transmit information from
an integrated circuit tag through a wireless communication to a host computer. These systems consist
of three components that are the tag (transponder), the reader (interrogator) and the host computer
(controller). The reader communicates with the tags in its wireless range and collects information
about the objects to which tags are attached. Compared to other automatic identification
technologies, like optical barcode systems, RFID has several advantages, such as tag data can be read
automatically without line of sight, thought some materials, simultaneously tag reading and from a
range of several meters.
RFID has the following main components and figure shows the basic components of RFID systems
and concepts.

 DEVICE OVERVIEW :

This document contains device specific information for the following devices:
PIC18F23K22 PIC18LF23K22
PIC18F24K22 PIC18LF24K22

 PIC18F25K22 PIC18LF25K22
PIC18F26K22 PIC18LF26K22
PIC18F43K22 PIC18LF43K22
PIC18F44K22 PIC18LF44K22
PIC18F45K22 PIC18LF45K22
PIC18F46K22 PIC18LF46K22

This family offers the advantages of all PIC18microcontrollers namely, high

computational performance at an economical price with the addition
of high-endurance, Flash program memory.
On top of these features, the PIC18(L)F2X/4XK22 family introduces design
enhancements that make these microcontrollers a logical choice for many highperformance, power sensitive applications.

New Core Features :

Nano Watt TECHNOLOGY : All of the devices in the PIC18(L)F2X/4XK22 family

incorporate a range of features that can significantly reduce power consumption during
operation.
Key items include:
1) Alternate Run Modes : By clocking the controller from the Timer1 source or the
internal oscillator block, power consumption during code execution can be reduced
by as much as 90%.
2) Multiple Idle Modes : The controller can also run with its CPU core disabled but the
peripherals still active. In these states, power consumption can be reduced even
further, to as little as 4% of normal operation requirements.
3) On-the-fly Mode Switching : The power-managed modes are invoked by user code
during operation, allowing the user to incorporate power-saving ideas into their
applications software design.
4) Low Consumption in Key Modules : The power requirements for both Timer1 and
the Watchdog Timer are minimized. See Section 27.0 Electrical Characteristicsfor
values.

MULTIPLE OSCILLATOR OPTIONS AND FEATURES:

All of the devices in the PIC18(L)F2X/4XK22 family offer ten different oscillator
options, allowing users a wide range of choices in developing application hardware.
These include:
1) Four Crystal modes, using crystals or ceramic resonators
2) Two External Clock modes, offering the option of using two pins (oscillator input
and a divide-by-4 clock output) or one pin (oscillator input, with the second pin
reassigned as general I/O)
3) Two External RC Oscillator modes with the same pin options as the External Clock
modes
4) An internal oscillator block which contains a 16 MHz HFINTOSC oscillator and a 31
kHz LFINTOSC oscillator, which together provide 8 user selectable clock

frequencies, from 31 kHz to 16MHz. This option frees the two oscillator pins for use
as additional general purpose I/O.
5) A Phase Lock Loop (PLL) frequency multiplier, available to both external and
internal oscillator modes, which allows clock speeds of up to 64MHz. Used with the
internal oscillator, the PLL gives users a complete selection of clock speeds, from 31
kHz to 64 MHz all without using an external crystal or clock circuit.
6) Fail-Safe Clock Monitor: This option constantly monitors the main clock source
against a reference signal provided by the LFINTOSC. If a clock failure occurs, the
controller is switched to the internal oscillator block, allowing for continued
operation or a safe application shutdown.
7) Two-Speed Start-up: This option allows the internal oscillator to serve as the clock
source from Power-on Reset, or wake-up from Sleep mode, until the primary clock
source is available.

8.1.4 V-Drive:

The VDrive2 module provides an easy solution for adding a USB Flash disk interface
to an existing product.

Only four signal lines plus 5V supply and ground are required to be connected. Using
the Vinculum VDAP firmware the VNC1Ls I/O interface can be selected between the
serial UART or SPI using the on-board jumper pins.
Not only is the VDrive2 ideal for evaluation and development of VNC1L designs, but
also its neat enclosure and attractive quantity discount structure makes this module

The VDrive2 is ideal for commercial products such as domestic goods, set top box,
etc., as well as industrial products such as data loggers, software upgradable products,
etc.
The Vinculum VNC1L is the first of F.T.D.I.s Vinculum family of Embedded SoC
USB host controller integrated circuit devices.
Not only is it able to handle the USB Host Interface, and data transfer functions but
owing to the inbuilt MCU and embedded Flash memory, Vinculum can encapsulate the
USB device classes as well.
When interfacing to mass storage devices such as USB Flash drives, Vinculum also
transparently handles the FAT file structure communicating via UART, SPI or parallel
FIFO interfaces via a simple to implement command set.
Vinculum provides a new cost effective solution for providing USB Host capability
into products that previously did not have the hardware resources available.
