3This is now the official Proxmark repository!
4
5INTRODUCTION:
6
7The proxmark3 is a powerful general purpose RFID tool, the size of a deck
8of cards, designed to snoop, listen and emulate everything from
9Low Frequency (125kHz) to High Frequency (13.56MHz) tags.
10
11This repository contains enough software, logic (for the FPGA), and design
12documentation for the hardware that you could, at least in theory,
13do something useful with a proxmark3.

52Most of the ultra-low-volume contract assemblers could put
53something like this together with a reasonable yield. A run of around
54a dozen units is probably cost-effective. The BOM includes (possibly-
55outdated) component pricing, and everything is available from Digikey
56and the usual distributors.
57
58If you've never assembled a modern circuit board by hand, then this is
59not a good place to start. Some of the components (e.g. the crystals)
60must not be assembled with a soldering iron, and require hot air.
61
62The schematics are included; the component values given are not
63necessarily correct for all situations, but it should be possible to do
64nearly anything you would want with appropriate population options.
65
66The printed circuit board artwork is also available, as Gerbers and an
67Excellon drill file.
