Adafruit LoRa Radio FeatherWing - RFM95W 900 MHz
PRODUCT ID: 3231
Description
Add short-hop wireless to your Feather with these Radio Featherwings. These add-ons for any
Feather board will let you integrate packetized radio (with the RFM69 radio) or LoRa radio (with
the RFM9x's). These radios are good options for kilometer-range radio, and paired with one of
our WiFi, cellular or Bluetooth Feathers, will let you bridge from 433/900 MHz to the Internet or
RFM69's are easiest to work with, and are well known and understood. The LoRa radios are
RFM69 @ 433 MHz
- basic packetized FSK/GFSK/MSK/GMSK/OOK radio at 433 MHz for use in Europe ITU
1 license-free ISM, or for amateur use with restrictions (check your local amateur regulations!)
RFM69 @ 900 MHz
- basic packetized FSK/GFSK/MSK/GMSK/OOK radio at 868 or 915 MHz for use in
Americas ITU 2 license-free ISM, or for amateur use with restrictions (check your amateur regulations!)
RFM98 @ 433 MHz
- LoRa capable radio at 433 MHz for use in Europe ITU 1 license-free ISM, or for
amateur use with restrictions (check your local amateur regulations!)
RFM95 @ 900 MHz
- LoRa capable radio at 868 or 915 MHz for use in Americas ITU 2 license-free ISM, or
for amateur use with restrictions (check your local amateur regulations!)
transmission/reception -
They can easily go 2 Km line of sight using simple wire antennas, or up to 20Km with directional
antennas and settings tweakings
Packet radio with ready-to-go Arduino libraries
Uses the license-free ISM bands
+5 to +20 dBm up to 100 mW Power Output Capability (power output selectable in software)
listening.
Our initial tests with default library settings: over 1.2mi/2Km line-of-sight with wire quarter-wave
antennas. (With setting tweaking and directional antennas, 20Km is possible).
Currently tested to work with the
M0
, Teensy 3 Feather, Feather 32u4 and Feather
900 MHz can only talk to RFM69 900 MHz, LoRa 433 MHz can only talk to LoRa 433, etc.
will need to cut and solder on a small piece of wire (any solid or stranded core is fine) in order to
create your antenna. Optionally you can pick up a uFL or SMA edge-mount connector and attach
an external duck.
