RFID-Based Attendance System with Arduino
Manual attendance is time-consuming
and prone to errors.
This project uses RFID to automate
attendance logging.
Each person uses a unique RFID card.
Logs time and date using a real-time
clock (RTC).
A beginner-friendly Arduino project
with practical use.
Components Required
Arduino UNO
RFID Reader MFRC522
Module(x1)
RFID Tags
DS3231 RTC Module
RTC DS1307 Module
16x2 LCD
Push Buttons
Breadboard & Jumper Wires
System Wiring and Communication
SPI Interface
→ Used by RFID Reader
I2C Interface
→ Shared by RTC, EEPROM, LCD
Digital I/O
Buttons , RFID Reset
Arduino provides 5V & 3.3V
power to modules
Compact layout on
breadboard, easy to assemble
