Arduino NFC Module (SKU:DFR0231) not reading tags

Hello all
I just bought the Arduino NFC Module and it works great with the tag it came with but it doesn't recognize at all any of my NFC Whiztags (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FS4 ... _i=desktop) anyone knows how can I fix that?

2016-02-03 23:40:53 Hi Affonso again,

I found I made a msitake that last time I searched NTAG213 which is compatible with our module, but today I noticed that sentence is " Almost 300% more memory than regular NTAG213 NFC tags."

And then I searched Topaz 512, but didn't find any datasheet about it. Maybe it's just not compatible.

2016-01-28 07:37:02 Thx for the fast response. I found it weird also because I was sure it would work. I only need to get de UID from the tags but so far without any success.
Hope you guys can find the answer!

It should be compatible with the tag you mentioned(thanks for the link you provided. ), as I found online that :

NTAG213, NTAG215 and NTAG216 (from now on, generally called
NTAG21x) are designed to fully comply to NFC Forum Type 2 Tag (Ref. 2) and
ISO/IEC14443 Type A (Ref. 1) specifications

And the NFC Module for Arduino also supports ISO 14443A/MIFARE.

I think we will buy the similar tag to have a test.

Thanks for your post. This is a cool idea!
I've passed it on to the tech support team and we will post in this thread if we find anything
