Rc522 | Proteus Library Top
The short answer is that finding an official, perfect library directly named "RC522" is difficult. A common point of confusion arises because the Proteus software, while powerful, does not come with every modern module pre-installed in its default library. The RC522 and its core chip, the MFRC522, are no exceptions. Many users have noted that the exact RC522 RFID reader module is not natively available in the software.
Navigate to your Proteus installation directory (e.g., C:\Program Files (x86)\Labcenter Electronics\Proteus 8 Professional\Data\LIBRARY ). Paste the .LIB and .IDX files into this folder.
If you run the simulation, open the Virtual Terminal, and see nothing when a card is scanned: Verify that the SPI pins (11, 12, 13) are strictly mapped.
