The Arduino MKR WAN 1300 LoRa Connectivity is a powerful yet compact board that combines the functionality of the MKR Zero with LoRa communication technology. It is the ideal device for those who want to design IoT projects, but have minimal experience in networking.
The MKR range is learning and development hardware that integrates the high performance and low power consumption of the Atmel microcontroller with the ease-of-use of Arduino - all in a board small enough for small, battery-powered IoT applications.
At the heart of the MKR WAN 1300 are The Atmel SAMD21 Cortex-M0+ 32bit low power ARM MCU, and a Murata CMWX1ZZABZ LoRa module. LoRa is a chirp spread spectrum (CSS) radio modulation technology that enables long-range communications links.
The board can be powered by either two 1.5 AA or AAA batteries, or by an external 5V. Switching from one power source to another is done automatically. The Arduino IDE software provides ease of use for code development and programming.
Low power LoRa communication
Rich set of I/O interfaces
