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.

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.

b27c1909 49Most of the ultra-low-volume contract assemblers could put
770f7345 50something like this together with a reasonable yield. A run of around
51a dozen units is probably cost-effective. The BOM includes (possibly-
52outdated) component pricing, and everything is available from Digikey
53and the usual distributors.
54
55If you've never assembled a modern circuit board by hand, then this is
56not a good place to start. Some of the components (e.g. the crystals)
57must not be assembled with a soldering iron, and require hot air.
58
59The schematics are included; the component values given are not
60necessarily correct for all situations, but it should be possible to do
61nearly anything you would want with appropriate population options.
62
63The printed circuit board artwork is also available, as Gerbers and an
64Excellon drill file.
