In the left sidebar, select Connectivity -> SPI1.
Select Mode to "Transmit Only Master".
Select Hardware NSS Signal to "Disable".
Set SPI Mode to MODE0
Set Clock Parameters -> Prescaler to 2. The chip can run up to 40 Mbits/s.
The code is adapted from Adafruit library
One tricky think is the SPI_WRITE16 function. The byte order is easy to mess up.
In STM, when passing the uint16_t value to the transmit function, the lower byte in the memory address is transmitted first. However, we want to maintain the byte order, and thus we need to swap the uint16_t btyes before we invoke the transmission function.
After connecting an RFID-RC522 SPI module, we can see that we can read the register from the sensor. The SPI signal looks like this:
