Tool Access Control

We're going to make some controllers to limit access to tools that are dangerous, expensive or easily damaged.

Requirements:

  • Use existing NFC tags
  • Use existing membership database (with enhancements for tracking permissions)
  • Allow some users to be “trainers”, capable of granting usage permissions to new users
  • Allow some users to be “maintainers”, capable of disabling/enabling a tool.
  • Mains powered
  • Able to switch a tool on or off by relay, secondary contactor or integration into an interlock circuit.

Planned high-level design:

  • Enclosure
  • 240V→5V power supply module
  • PN532 NFC module (I2C)
  • Buzzer/sounder
  • Current clamp
  • 20×4 line LCD (I2C)
  • Two push buttons
  • PCB:
    • ESP8266 microcontroller with WiFi
    • 5V→3.3V LDO
    • 5V relay with 240V/10A contacts

PCB elements:

  • ESP8266 ESP-12
  • 3.3V LDO and capacitors
  • 5V relay with oversize tracks
  • N-channel MOSFET and diode for relay
  • Buzzer and N-channel MOSFET
  • I2C pullups
  • Switchable voltage output (3.3V/5V) for PN532 and LCD
  • Connectors:
    • FTDI (6-pin 0.1“ male header)
    • Reset (2-pin 0.1” male header)
    • Boot Mode: (2-pin 0.1“ male header)
    • PN532 GND, VCC, SDA, SCL, reset (5-pin 0.1” male header)
    • LCD GND, VCC, SDA, SCL (4-pin 0.1“ male header)
    • 8-pin pluggable 3.5mm header
      • DC input GND, 5V (2 contact)
      • Current clamp (2 contact)
      • Button A (2 contact)
      • Button B (2 contact)
    • Relay (2 contact 10A pluggable screw terminal 5.0mm)
