Hello,
i am using "RFID-RC522" modules based MFRC522. https://www.nxp.com/docs/en/data-sheet/MFRC522.pdf
i am trying to work with it using HDL programming, in my case Verilog, but i am having hard time configuring it.
i tried to configure it in such way that it will raise IRQ when it read RF-ID, but i have no success.
i would be very thankful your help.
code:
Code:
reg [7:0] rAddress = {`READ, 6'h01, 1'b0}; //Read Address 0x01
    reg [15:0] rPackage_to_Send = 8'h08; //Data of the firt 'Write Command'
    reg [31:0] rReading_Data = 0; //UID - Unique Identification ,  4 Bytes of ID from the card, this must be send to the FIFO
    reg sSCK = 0;
  
    assign oSCK = sSCK; //Driving Clock to RFID

Code:
always @(posedge iClock) begin // devide clock by 2
      sSCK = ~sSCK;
    end
  
    always @(posedge iClock) begin // working on falling edge, because SPI prefers data being changed when clock at 0 and stable when clock at 1
        if(iReset == 1) begin
                //Reset Registers/Signals
            rCase_Machine <= 0;
            rBits_Counter <= 0;
            rAddress <= {`READ, 6'h01, 1'b0}; //Read Address 0x01
            rPackage_to_Send <= 8'h08;
            rReading_Data <= 0;

This is impossible to read.

Please adjust your formatting. Lines like “end else begin” are just horrible. Use indentations (your editor should do it for you). The TAB key is your friend.
 

Generally I'd prefer a more hierarchical structure with SPI read/write performed in separate modules.

Not impossible but rather unlikely to identify errors in a code review. Functional HDL simulation is the usual way to find it.

In several states, your state machine can only advance if the expected output is read from the controller. Respectively it's stuck if the result is different.

can you give an example of separating read and write in SPI. i am working on doing things correct, not just work.

back to the question,
i have run simulation in Vivado and the code seems to do what intended, my guess the problem is in the way i configure the RFID module.
have you encountered with this module before?

you are truly correct, thanks to the moderator it was fixed. please take a look again.
 

Using adders to transition states may not lead to very good synthesis results. I'm not sure if it will actually be recognized as an FSM.

You might also what to reconsider using cod that indexes into a vector to updated each bit. SPI is a serial protocol, so code a shift register it will run faster and use less logic overall.

it does work and syntesised correctly. you are right that i am using allot of logic when i am counting and using a shift may seem better. but how do you shift MSB first? it will still require a counter.

back to the question,
have you encountered with MFRC522 ?
