The RakWireless RAK8213 is a Quectel BG96 based 4G LTE Cat M1/Cat NB1/EGPRS modem in a PCI Express MiniCard Form Factor. LTE categories M1/NB1 combined with innovations including Power Saving Mode (PSM) and Extended Discontinuous Reception (eDRX) can rival power consumption and battery life of other IoT Technologies such as LoRa and Sigfox. …
Linux 4.8 introduced a new GPIO user space subsystem for accessing GPIO. This tutorial provides an introduction to the new Character Device GPIO and explores how to control GPIO from the command line. sysfs GPIO User-mode GPIO (General Purpose Input/Output) has historically been performed via the legacy “integer-based”sysfs pseudo file system. For …
The FTDI FT2232H Hi-Speed Dual USB UART/FIFO Breakout Board provides a variety of standard serial and parallel interfaces: Asynchronous UART JTAG I2C SPI Parallel FIFO The board includes two linear regulators offering either 3.3V or 2.5V IO. An on-board Serial EEPROM stores custom USB descriptors, VID/PIDs and configurations. Design Files Design …
U-Boot U-Boot (The Universal Bootloader) is a popular, feature rich, open source bootloader for embedded systems. It is licenced under the GNU General Public Licence version 2. While its primary purpose is to boot an operating system, such as Linux, it also provides many useful tools for developing and debugging …
The RN2903 Wireless LoRa Module from Microchip ships with an on-board LoRaWAN Class A protocol stack. This stack can be accessed via ASCII based commands over a UART interface. For many, this is the interface of choice, offloading the complexity of the LoRaWAN stack to a dedicated processor contained within …
A breakout board for Microchip’s series of LoRa transceiver modules: RN2483 fully-certified 433/868 MHz Module (Europe) RN2903 fully-certified 915 MHz Module (North America, Australia) The RN2483/RN2903 LoRa modules contain a Microchip PIC18LF46K22 MCU with a Semtech SX1276 radio transceiver and is intended as a complete certified solution with LoRaWAN Class A protocol stack and …
This design is intended to recharge Maxell ML2032 Lithium Manganese Dioxide rechargeable coin cell batteries with a nominal voltage of 3.0V. These are ‘special’ coin cell batteries designed specifically as a rechargeable secondary cell. It is not recommended to attempt to recharge a primary CR2032. These cells have not be …
This board is a Raspberry PI Hat for the RAK833/RAK2247 LoRa Concentrator Gateway Modules. The RAK2247 is improved version of the RAK833 with better heatsinking, a boost in the maximum transmission power and improved interference immunity. Both are a smaller version of the popular RAK831. The RAK831 is larger, about …
The 12V 7Ahr “alarm” battery is still a safe, dependable choice for stationary back-up supplies, running items such as LED lighting or modem/routers. Using two Keystone 3571 female PCB terminals, this PCB assembly attaches directly to the terminals of a 12V 7AH SLA Battery (with 4.75mm spade terminals) and provides a low voltage …
