Which microcontroller to create my own lorawan node?

imslora
imslora over 3 years ago

Hi all I am quite new in this sphere - I have a good electronics background and I specialize in IoT Integration.

I am stumped on which microcontroller to choose to create a lorawan node? Any good pointers?

I am asking because lorawan to enable otaa which seems to be the way forward has some memory issues with the conventional mcu's

thanks and sorry for the noob question

    Hi, what specific memory issues are you referring to? I can't tell if you're looking for a microcontroller with a lot of memory, or for a microcontroller with secure memory. I don't know if you're looking…

    I assume the LoRa MCU modules from Arduino and Adafruit can handle TTN OTAActivation. Or an ESP32 LoRa module like LILYGO® TTGO LoRa32 V2.1 which has something like 512 KB RAM.

    Thanks for your replies

    shabaz thanks for your feedback I refer to the onboard memory as the library needed to attain ttn v3 otaa exceeds or will occupy the majority of the memory leaving little to none space for your own code with no headroom. Yes I have been looking at other project my project was prototyped using arduino mkr wan - so i have a working prototype but now I am in the stage to try and minimise the circuit footprint by redesigning a minimalist circuit. I asked this question so I can get more ideas what mcu's one could use.

    dougw thanks, yes I understand and did that - admittedly i didnt look at TTGO and now I am drooling a bit because looks like has enough ram to accomplish OTAA

    Thanks again - seems like quite an active community and helpful
