About the LEGACY-fingerprint doorlock PCB
LEGACY-fingerprint doorlock is an open source PCB design by feichtinger, published on GitHub under the GPL-3.0 license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 15 × 12.2 mm, with 8 components from 7 distinct parts.
Other key parts include the MCP7940N and 32.768kHz. By type, the board carries 3 capacitors, 2 ICs, 2 connectors and 1 battery holder.
It belongs with the sensors and power & battery designs in this gallery.
From the project
A simple firmware and GUI for an electronic doorlock using a fingerprint sensor.
This project uses a ZFM-20 series fingerprint sensor to implement access controll (to a building or room) using an electrical doorlock (e.g. magnetic door buzzer).
All fingerprints can be managed by a simple GUI called Fingerprint-Manager or simply over a serial terminal.
a realtime clock module (for logfiles) a weather-proof button (for whole day access)
The sensor should be placed on the outside next to the door and is connected to the controller board with a 7-pole cable (you can use a piece of ethernet cable for this).
