LoRa(R) Technology Evaluation Kit - 900
Manufactured By:Microchip
Part Number:DV164140-2
The DV164140-2 is a 915MHz LoRa technology evaluation kit. The 915MHz LoRaWAN gateway that provides packet forwarding between LoRaWAN nodes (motes) and a LoRaWAN network server via an Ethernet interface. The core board includes pre-installed demo code, an LCD display for easy setup and evaluation and is powered by a standard USB interface.
The LoRa mote is a demonstration board that showcases the Microchip low-power long range LoRa technology transceiver module. The LoRa mote provides access to the module through a convenient USB-to-UART bridge chip and supports connection points to all GPIO-controlled module pins.
The gateway uses a local version of the LoRaWAN network server running under Windows so it does not need an external network connection. This creates a self-contained demo network that makes testing the LoRa network quick and easy.
RN2903:
The RN2903 is a fully-certified 915 MHz module based on wireless LoRa technology. The RN2903 utilizes a unique spread spectrum modulation within the Sub-GHz band to enable long range, low power, and high network capacity.
The module's embedded LoRaWAN Class A protocol enables seamless connectivity to any LoRaWAN compliant network infrastructure, whether public or privately deployed. The module is specifically designed for ease of use, which shortens development time and speeds time to market. LoRa technology is ideal for battery-operated sensors and low power applications such as IoT, M2M, Smart City, Sensor networks, Industrial automation, and more.
