Design & Implementation
Key Locator
Hardware Design
A in-built Nordic wireless is used for board to board communication.The transceiver used is nRF24L01+ Single Chip 2.4GHz Transceiver. Figure() shows the connection of the transceiver with the SJ One controller.

Hardware Interface
The hardware interface is fairly simple. A small 5V battery powers key via its on board 5V pins.The antenna is connected to the SJ One board via its SMA connector.The Nordic wireless has the following connections with the controller. SPI bus is used for communication between them.
