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

36 Most of the ultra-low-volume contract assemblers could put
37 something like this together with a reasonable yield. A run of around
38 a dozen units is probably cost-effective. The BOM includes (possibly-
39 outdated) component pricing, and everything is available from Digikey
40 and the usual distributors.
42 If you've never assembled a modern circuit board by hand, then this is
43 not a good place to start. Some of the components (e.g. the crystals)
44 must not be assembled with a soldering iron, and require hot air.
46 The schematics are included; the component values given are not
47 necessarily correct for all situations, but it should be possible to do
48 nearly anything you would want with appropriate population options.
