Happy simulating!
Serial.println();
mfrc522.PICC_HaltA(); delay(1000);
✅ Saves money, speeds up debugging, great for teaching. ❌ Cons: Not 100% accurate for advanced features.

If you’ve ever tried to simulate an RFID-based access control system or a contactless payment prototype in Proteus, you’ve likely hit the same wall: The standard Proteus library does not include the MFRC522 (RC522) module.

Without the library, you can’t test your Arduino or PIC code logic for reading UID tags. You either have to buy physical hardware or abandon the simulation.
