Arduino MKR WAN 1310 LoRa Connectivity (Original Made In Italy)
Arduino MKR WAN 1310 allows you to build your next smart project. Ever wanted an automated house? Or a smart garden?
The Arduino MKR WAN 1310 board provides a practical and cost effective solution to add LoRa® connectivity to projects requiring low power. This open source board can be connected to the Arduino IoT Cloud.
Features:
- Powered by a Microchip SAMD21 Cortex-M0+ 32-bit ARM processor at 48MHz.
- Murata CMWX1ZZABZ LoRa® module supporting 433/868/915 MHz carrier frequencies.
- On‑board 2MByte SPI Flash for data logging, over‑the‑air (OTA) updates, and local storage.
- ATECC508 cryptographic co‑processor for secure key storage and authentication.
- Integrated Li‑Po battery charger with power path management.
- Ultra‑low power consumption: as low as 104µA in sleep mode when properly configured.
- 8 digital I/O pins, 7 analog inputs (8/10/12‑bit ADC), 1 analog output (10‑bit DAC), and 12 PWM channels.
- Micro USB port for programming and power (5V input).
- Arduino Cloud compatible and supports LoRaWAN® protocols.
Better and More Efficient
The MKR WAN 1310, brings in a series of improvements when compared to its predecessor, the MKR WAN 1300. While still based on the Microchip® SAMD21 low power processor, the Murata CMWX1ZZABZ LoRa® module, and the MKR family’s characteristic crypto chip (the ECC508), the MKR WAN 1310 includes a new battery charger, a 2MByte SPI Flash, and improved control of the board’s power consumption.
Improved Battery Power
The latest modifications have considerably improved the battery life on the MKR WAN 1310. When properly configured, the power consumption is now as low as 104uA! It is also possible to use the USB port to supply power (5V) to the board; run the board with or without batteries – the choice is yours.
On-board Storage
Data logging and other OTA (Over The Air) functions are now possible since the inclusion of the on board 2MByte Flash. This new exciting feature will let you transfer configuration files from the infrastructure onto the board, create your own scripting commands, or simply store data locally to send it whenever the connectivity is best. Whilst the MKR WAN 1310’s crypto chip adds further security by storing credentials & certificates in the embedded secure element.
These features make it the perfect IoT node and building block for low-power wide-area IoT devices.
