Microchip Technology RN2483 LoRa PICtail™ / PICTAIL Plus Daughter Board
Microchip Technology RN2483 LoRa PICtail™/ PICtail Plus Daughter Board is a development board that showcases the Microchip RN2483 LoRa transceiver module. The development of a LoRa system with the RN2483 connected to the Microchip PIC MCU line is possible on PIC18 Explorer boards. This can be achieved via the 28-pin PICtail connector or on Explorer 16 boards using the 30-pin card edge PICtail Plus connector.
The RN2483 LoRa PICtail board also includes an onboard PIC18 MCU for custom user functions. This board is pre-programmed to provide a simple USB-to-UART serial bridge enabling easy serial connection. The demonstration of the RN2483 transceiver is performed by plugging the daughterboard into a USB port of a PC. The USB port powers the daughter board and enables the user to communicate using RN2483’s simple ASCII command interface.
